THIS SHOULD BE WINNING THE THREAD, NOT #22!!!

Is there a way to make a career as a salt-water crocodile expert without doing any fieldwork? Because you really don't want to do giant crocodile fieldwork if you can help it.

I think lots of us are just night owls.

During graduate school, if a professor assigned their own work, they also just provided us with a copy.

A doctor who reference ? I like that. Take my upvote.

There are different words for the languages spoken in China. 中文 is kind of a catch-all for any language spoken in China. 粤语 refers specifically to Cantonese. 普通话 is often translated as Mandarin, but literally means "the common language." If the slide said 我不会说中文, then "I don't speak Chinese" would be the best translation.

My uncle ran a funeral home. Yeah, you're not doing that job if you don't understand algebra. How long before a viewing do you pull a body out of refrigerated storage so there isn't condensation on it when the family is there? How long can you hold the service while the family flies in relatives from across the country before either decomp or freezer burn sets in? You better not just guestimate that stuff.

this is totally correct..."Häppie Börsdäh tu juh..."

He may not be a bird, but he's s gonna get one.

I agree completely. We always talk about symbolism in class and I just think, "I bet if we came up to the author and asked if that was symbolism they would say it was not intended." That's what would happen to me if I wrote a story anyways.

That's how a lot of art works in general. Especially modern art is full of "happy little accidents".

I remember my creative writing classes when people would critique my stories or poetry and find all this symbolism and layered meaning and I'd be over there like... I planned none of that.

I was in a creative writing class and after reading one girl's poem and discussing what it means we asked the author. Her reply I just put words that sounded good together there was no meaning.

ahhhaha I hated that book so much. One of my test questions was something about a statue and the symbolism. I responded with "a statue". Then for the last question I wrote "I have no idea, I didnt read the book. Even the sparknotes were unbearable".......had to stay after class that day

Arrogant annoying pseudo-intellectuals...

Also, it is mathematically a wrong triangle.

Risk with polisci majors should be banned.

My heartrate increases just by reading this

Farting?

I never checked my grades once during my AA or BA. I had a 3.91 GPA but the stress of seeing my grade was too great so I just ignored it. During my MA I finally started reading comments left by my professors and talking to them about my papers and stuff. I told one of my professors that I appreciated their advice one this or that and said how I regret not ever checking my grades before. They were shocked. They asked what I would have done if I had been failing a class and didn't know, I told him you always kind of know but if it had happened it would have only confirmed my deepest suspicion, that I screwed up and was a failure. I reassured him that I wouldn't have taken it hard because I loved to be proved right. He was so conflicted between laughing and worrying I was being serious. 100% serious. LOL.

I want to know the rest of the question.

This is the albanian flag. but is the guy on the left Tito? No, it's Albania, so it must be Enver Hoxha???

Happy little pixels...

A for effort.

Does it count if you're utter ineptitude made the teacher cry?? I didn't like fractions as a kid.

In their defense, Merrie Melodies cartoons from the 1930s were still being shown in the 1990s, probably because licensing them for broadcast was cheap.

Chicken. We got evacuated cause some teacher nuked their chicken to charbroiled in the microwave before

I need to get a master's degree just to not die homeless.

My economics teacher in high school. So we had online classes. He had a bottle of corona beer, but didn't like surreptitious advertising, he PUT A MASK ON THE BOTTLE. Bc Corona...

Every exam you will ever take.

The guy second to the right looks like Mike from Green Day.

You’re lucky he didn’t come back and pound you for the soup.

the trick is to pick a career that you can tolerate that pays well. hardly anyone likes their job, may as well make $$$ so you can enjoy the rest of your life when you're not at work. I'm typically a pretty optimistic dude but that "do something you love and you'll never work a day in your life" crap is a lie.

And Work...

And even if he did, it's behind a pay wall. Your professor won't spend any money to actually read it.

The computers at my job still have a floppy drive and can take 20 min to open a google drive link and run the powerpoint. I hate them so much

And this is why I purposely minimize homework to 3-4 assignments a semester

What I hate is journals with word limits who then have reviewers or the editor ask you to add a s**t ton of explanatory material while demanding you somehow magically stay within word count guidelines
