While in college, I realized many of my professors were retarded.  Education doesn't always equal intelligence. 

Unfortunately, that's incredibly true.

Congrats on your sis Blake!

 Thanks man. The wedding was awesome! 

When I entered a class and was handed a "city bus" I started to worry, because what I really received was a syllabus.  I went onto learn... jack shit.  I ended up teaching my classmates that class.  It would really help if the teachers would know how to speak english, and write in something that does not need a rosetta stone to decipher.

What class hands you a city bus? I want my own city bus damn it! Sounds awesome!

 Yeah, that's the problem with a lot of degrees. They don't teach, you just go through the motions.

It makes me mad that I struggle to find work (well, technically I have a freelance position, and I'll have another job very soon, but that's a university position), yet incompetent people continue to find it by lying on their resumes. Mine is truthfully awesome, yet over and underqualifies me for so much shit. Hate. 

And last night at my parents' anniversary dinner, a couple that works at Lockheed Martin was talking about a guy that eventually got fired, but was there sleeping in meetings etc. I hope he dies in a fire.

What kind of work are you looking for?

 And yeah. Let's burn that fucker! Fire makes me happy *grins evilly*

Any kind of work, but I have a Graduate Assistantship lined up once I go back after this week, so not a problem at this point really. But I was looking both in my field of visual media and everywhere else pretty much.

You gotta know how to play the game. It's 90% social connection. You have to be like one of the hive. It's a game for the truly extroverted and trendy, or sociopaths who can fake it. Like me. MUHWAHAHAHAHAHA

Damn. I'm an introvert. I'm fucked.

Nah, I know. "It's who ya know, not what ya know" has been drilled in my head since a young age. And trust me, I have used that at all my jobs leading up to now, plus hard work (there's a reason my resume has several promotions on it). But I will take the job and the Master's program for now. Anything beats spending my days on Craigslist at my parents' house.

Sounds like sooooo many managers I've had to work with. No brains, just pushiness. Gee, I guess being an arrogant prick can get you somewhere. Not me though. I guess that's why I'm at the bottom.

 Yep. That's why most people hate their bosses.

What she look like? Give her enough help, you could be giving her something else by the end of the month... Hey, don't judge me. I reserve the right to be a ho' too, just like all the feminists and super liberals out there.  

If being an asshole gets you ahead in life, I ought to have been king of the northern Earth hemisphere.  I've been selling myself short. That's it, enough of this 'pleasant' phase I was going through. Going right back to straight out da' sewa', '98 gutter style. *activates Paradigm Shift: Hater/Saboteur/Ball-buster*

Dude. She's old. I looked at a picture of her at the start of the year and thought "That's unflattering picture..." then I saw her give a lecture and thought "that WAS a flattering picture!" She went from looking like a sad 40 year old lady to a 60 year old with down syndrome.

Wow unless this woman was 80 years old how could she not know these things. Nevermind teaching a class that is based in using the internet. Sadly I have seen far too many times that having a lot of ambition and no selfrespect (booty licker) can get you a lot further than integrity and intelligence. And bootylickers like other bootylickers so it starts a ladder of shamesless morons promoting each other.

Fortunately for us she is teaching us about the social and cultural impact of the internet, not how to use the internet itself. Otherwise we'd be fucked lol.

 You are right though. Intelligent people question things, and that's cancer to people with authority.

I was so lucky to go to the college I did when I did, because the place was so strapped for cash that everything was hand-on in the field. Hard for an incompetent professor to slide by. We got one guy fired, he left in the middle of the semester for three weeks for job in Hawaii without telling the administration and leaving us to our own devices for three weeks. He also graded according to how well he liked you, and he hated me. I didn't even bother with the final. My friend Erik and I were pretty much equal academically, and Erik got an A and I got a D. Erik went to the dean on my behalf, I wasn't going to bother, and then the dean called me in to ask me about it and reassured me that the asshole prof would never be teaching at the college again.

 Wow. What a dick. He's playing with people's lives there!

Weddings are pretty happy occasions but yeah, buying a suit rental for one always sucks! Hoping your toast at least has jam and butter,Blake. lol.

As for your lecturer it was the same for me in college. Yes, I had some great professors but there were also professors I wanted to throw through the nearest window. Aka, people who were so inconfident a HS teacher could easily wipe the floor with them and make em look bad. I'd gladly put bozos like them against my science teacher Mrs. Cothran or my math teacher Diane Pierce. Now those were SMART women!

 Yeah! I bought the suit though not rented it. And I didn't do a toast. 

 You're right. She's the first "terrible" lecturer I've had though, which is a good sign I guess.
