the modern cyberpunk dystopia is kind of lovely, the government either does nothing to stop or actively supports companies making employees and customers give up basic rights and freedoms and we only just barely have virtual reality goggles available

I believe you're referring to the Stantz Populous/Haunting Index that states the larger the area the more "living beings" need to be there to keep the hauntings from becoming noticeable. So a place like a large abandoned insane asylum would need more than just a couple of roommates living there to keep the hauntings at bay.

Agreed. I tried to read that response a day or two ago but couldn't get through it. This lady might make a good point for all I know.

Honestly the context of this is what I can't get over. So she texted that to a friend and was so enchanted by her own wittiness that she took a screen shot of it, on her phone, and then posted it online? Is that something people do?

Big City Drinkin posted:

Really? Looks to me like she made several points, many of which have been echoed in this thread.

A young woman was about to finish her first year of college. Like so many others her age, she considered herself to be a very liberal Democrat, and was very much in favor of the redistribution of wealth.

She was deeply ashamed that her father was a rather staunch Republican, a feeling she openly expressed. Based on the lectures that she had participated in, and the occasional chat with a professor, she felt that her father had for years harbored an evil, selfish desire to keep what he thought should be his.

One day she was challenging her father on his opposition to higher taxes on the rich and the addition of more government welfare programs. The self-professed objectivity proclaimed by her professors had to be the truth and she indicated so to her father. He responded by asking how she was doing in school.

Taken aback, she answered rather haughtily that she had a 4.0 GPA, and let him know that it was tough to maintain, insisting that she was taking a very difficult course load and was constantly studying, which left her no time to go out and party like other people she knew. She didn’t even have time for a boyfriend, and didn’t really have many college friends because she spent all her time studying.

Her father listened and then asked, “How is your friend Audrey doing?” She replied, “Audrey is barely getting by. All she takes are easy classes, she never studies, and she barely has a 2.0 GPA. She is so popular on campus; college for her is a blast. She’s always invited to all the parties, and lots of times she doesn’t even show up for classes because she’s too hung over.”

Her wise father asked his daughter, “Why don’t you go to the Dean’s office and ask him to deduct a 1.0 off your GPA and give it to your friend who only has a 2.0. That way you will both have a 3.0 GPA and certainly that would be a fair and equal distribution of GPA.”

The daughter, visibly shocked by her father’s suggestion, angrily fired back, “That wouldn’t be fair! I have worked really hard for my grades! I’ve invested a lot of time, and a lot of hard work! Audrey has done next to nothing toward her degree. She played while I worked my tail off!”

The father slowly smiled, winked and said gently, “Welcome to the Republican party.”

quoting from the first page because I agree wholeheartedly with this sentiment.

While that quote makes sense on the surface, that's really not what liberals are asking for. There are almost no American corporations, or billionaires paying their taxes, and that is what people are asking for. This quote is suggesting that everyone should have to give up a huge portion of their income to help others out, that is not the case at all, we all already do this, but its a couple dollars each year, as opposed to the thousands from each American that goes towards corporate handouts.

You mean the ones that stem from her crying to a family friend and getting a 15/hr hostess job? lmfao

That is way past "slob" and into "alternative lifestyle".

I don't know the real backstory to that picture but it is a great picture to look at and contemplate what kind of person lives there and why.

Sorry about your poor reading comprehension. The first half she relates her own narrative and how she started out in the same boat, but then makes different choices than the subject in the op by getting over her sense of entitlement, swallowing her pride, leveraging her opportunities in the restaurant/bar industry to make more and more money, and then following her dreams by pursuing a screenwriting career. The second half she specifically critiques the thought process and choices of the dork in the OP.
