Pc is usually the whine of those who long for the good ol days when your peers approved of your use of the word ni**er.

I'm pretty certain I didn't use that word...lemme look....nope...didn't...wouldn't have.

Please pay close atention (two t's)....your post is moronic drivel...my opinion of you, on the other hand, I will keep to my self. Thank you....I had a flat tire today and then, just minutes later my ex wife called me and insisted that I destroyed her life....it wasn't good...your last comment lifted me up.

Escape from what, to where and fail at what? Could you please be a bit more specific? Absolutely, glad to help here....(thanks for asking, by the way). Don't be lazy, study, build on anything that was successful yesterday, toss anything that was fucked up/didn't add value....you get the drift...right?.....Did you need more on this or is this enough?

I will be glad to look at any thing you can post to validate this moronic asswipe you have posted. I don't see any need to explain to you where to find the link that the sun came up this morning. You're a grownup. I presume you can read. Do so.

You have yet to show us one black only college. It would appear from previous posts that I was more than wrong on that subject.

Marijuana is a street drug and I would challange (challenge) you to provide any data that indicates that it causes "rubber teeth" Sorry, I should have excluded marijuana as well as laughing gas regards that discussion. My error.

You might want to take a look at the academic record of bill gates. No college degree...no junior college degree...no marketable skills... Bill Gates is slightly older than me...by a year or so....he lives about 9 miles from me.... and actually, he dropped out of Harvard with 2 semesters to go and....he IS a genius.

We don't hate you we just think you post the most incredibly stupid shit we have ever heard from anyone with a pulse and a two digit iq. I was tested in my teens with an IQ of of a potatoe....so thank you for recognizing my skill sets.

quote:

I didn't say anything that wasn't true....most simply read it through PC lenses.

Everything you said was untrue. When you are able to validate your puerile opinions then they will be true...so far we have nothing but the assinine bigoted ranting of someone too ignorant to take seriously. You're welcome to your opinions, and I (most clearly) have my own. Mine are anecdotal (by the way...anecdotal means "from experience" as in "what has taken place in front of you")..... I've seen kids come into my offices over the last 35 years with nothing more than many of their age, yet every year the task at hand becomes much more difficult for those who apply, yet the job has actually gotten easier. Imagine why Microsoft begs the feds every year to expand the H1-B visa limits from 65,000 or so. If you don't know what that is...it's what's commonly referred to as the "Genius Visa". A visa that allows kids that are just incredibly smart....to come to work for Microsoft and others. I don't remember the exact date that H1-B visa's are supposed to be applied for but....on that date....that federal agency is flooded with HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of visa applications FAR IN EXCESS OF THE DEMAND....and not from the students....but from Microsoft, Intel, Lucent, Dell, GE, Boeing, AMD, Proctor and Gamble, Apple, McKinstry, Amazon, IBM, Google, Exxon, WalMart, GM, FORD, Hewlett Packard, Kroger, Costco, Home Depot, Pfizer, PepsiCo, Target, Caterpillar, Kraft Foods, Lowes, Walt Disney Enterprises, DuPont, Goldman Sachs, United Airlines, and myriad others. Why? If you think about it for more than the (puerile) time it took you to write such incredibly uninformed and incendiary things about my above posts, you'd quickly realize that it's because they can't find the talent here in the United States. We are UNDER EDUCATED....race be damned. Microsoft and others would KILL to be able to find the talent here.

IT AIN'T here!

Your moronic platitudes seem to run into trouble with ideas like the flying wing or the "six pack" two aircraft that were fraught with problems but instead of "toss anything that was fucked up/didn't add value" those with vision instead of platitudes prevailed.

Do cocaine,mescaline,peyote,synthetic halucinigenics or heroin cause "rubber teeth"?

Actually he quit after two and a half years which would leave three and not two semesters to go.
You might also look at peter thiel of pay pal fame. He is paying college students $100,000 to drop out of college.
If you are interested in education and what it is and is not you might want to read chomsky's opinions.

Perhaps you might want to look in the want ads for a machine tool programers position.
H1B programers work for $20 per hour. Citizens of the u.s. who are programers charge about $100 per hour. Only the most puerile of minds would fail to see the reason that the corporations you list above would be interested in hiring non citizens.

Well, we've already determined I'm puerile.

And those corporations....silly me...I forgot, they're just pricks....not interested in profits or people who can produce.

Clearly the puerile moniker fits me to a T.

I bow down....
