Can you imagine the thought process?

Talk me out of it...

My 2011 F-150 has been paid off forever, and was very well maintained. Engine still purrs like a kitten. I'd keep it forever.

And I learned recently the frame is rusting out.

God dammit.

The College Thread

So is anyone else besides me bemused at the FAFSA problems? I just learned General Dynamics was paid $181M to change the input form, and change the calculation equations a little bit. Even if im understating it, as I understand it still interfaces with the IRS, holy shit, they had years and a couple...

Are there many employment vectors out there that require zero skill or education, and don't involve holding a shovel? Most of these people couldn't hold the weight of a shovel.

"It's just socialized education, but with extra steps."

Which I'm not entirely against.

But I can see there's nuances to it, and arguments to be made.

The general "they're all crooks" thread.

Can you imagine any politician running for high(ish) office.... anything higher than local mayor, and their thought process is purely "I want to do some good!" No one is spending millions to get elected for a $250k salary, with the Rockwellian ideal of simply making the world a better plac...

I know I have a habit of believing that all politicians are corrupt, and all of them are taking bribes and lining the nests, but only because it's true. https://www.nbc4i.com/news/local-news/central-ohio-news/sam-randazzo-recently-charged-in-ohios-biggest-corruption-case-found-dead/ I'm a First Ener...

For a minute he was gung-ho about switching to economics with a Chinese minor, his advisor was like double-thumbs-up on that. But that school wouldn't accept him, even with good grades. So that's weird.

He's looking at 3.5+ GPA with all his sciencey pre-med classes, with Chinese as his language. The kid is reading 200 year old Chinese literature for fun, with a chart open on his phone for reference, and complaining, " I hate when they use this dialect, it makes no sense "

Good stuff.

My freshman has been doing well in school, but has been vacillating on his major... But yesterday he told me he's locking down on a med degree, and has his plans for post grad and MCATSs.

:-D

He was trying to change into economics but they weren't accepting transfers in for some reason.
