WAY TO GO WAMPA!! posted:He grew up poor and has earned everything he has (did six years in the military and that's how he pays for school, always had jobs etc) "kids need to work hard, like i did, when i was born a man with enough physical strength and good enough health to be recruited into a taxpayer-funded jobs program" the us military recruits maybe 100k people a year. even if we assume they're only recruiting fresh high school grads and not people from age 18-25+, there are 3.5 million high school grads every year. it's not realistic to expect your children to join the military to secure education and health care for themselves

It was a few pages ago, but MMO healer girlfriend should know kyrie eleison means Lord, have mercy. It's a phrase included in some of the oldest Christian liturgy in latin. If you're going to obsess, at least do a drat google search.

ArbitraryC posted:I dunno i'm kinda mixed on that, my mom raised me that way (out of necessity, single mom) and while it did give me a lovely libertarian viewpoint in high school that I eventually got over, it also really made me appreciate what I had. I feel like people in college paying their own way tend to take it more seriously and do a better job building up their resume cause they get jobs through their department. I knew a lot of people who were at college sorta cause it was just what was expected of them and it was paid for but they sorta just phoned it in for 4 years and then came out without anything to show for it. i kinda wish someone around 18 had either funded my college education or made me get a job that wasn't landscaping/bookstore inventory so I had some clue going in what a life-altering waste of time and money a lit degree was A Wizard of Goatse fucked around with this message at 03:04 on Feb 7, 2017 |

I'm [20F] studying abroad and miserable submitted 8 hours ago by baguettebaguettebagu to /r/relationships quote:Last month I arrived in France from the US for a semester abroad, something I've dreamed of doing for almost 7 years. I picked my university based on its "great" study abroad programs. The one problem: I hate it.

Tolkien minority posted:I'm [20F] studying abroad and miserable This is just very sad. It sounds like her hosts are just doing it for the paycheck and resent her for it, and it's not like the study abroad program needs her approval. They already have her money. I suppose it's possible that she's a huge Oui-aboo and that's turning everyone off. Also, this reminds me of my friend (17F) who went to study abroad in Russia and returned a broken shell of a human being. Never did find out exactly what happened.

Fullhouse posted:depends on where you go, france is probably a bad choice if you're not culturally french in some way. country is famous for being full of assholes For Americans in France, you either have to be really good or really bad at speaking French and regardless of skill level, willing to humiliate yourself/be humiliated at some point. This is a culture that has still not really gotten over Jerry Lewis. French people get off on the one thing they can do better than anyone else in the world: speak their dumb, mumbly language. So gently caress up a few conjugations! Mispronounce something! Mix up two words that sound nothing alike because you need their help! They'll love you for it. Talk about how American football is awful and soccer is way better. Tell them their McDonalds selection is superior. Do NOT mention their complicity with the Nazis.

My (22f) SO (27m) is eating (and wasting) almost all of the food in the house. I can't afford it and I'm always hungry.quote:Neither of us make a lot of money. I have a fairly labor intensive job that requires me to be on my feet while moving somewhat heavy things for around 8 hours day. So, I'm usually pretty tired by the end of the day and I burn a lot of calories doing what I do, so I need to eat.

Yeah, there's absolutely no excuse for eating the stuff she specifically sets aside for her own lunch. She needs to look into getting a locking lunchbox, or a locking cabinet, or a new boyfriend

Thin privilege is sympathy and concern for losing weight for not having enough to eat, as opposed to gaining and still not having enough. Also, if you want to use the :fuckinhell: emote, I think this version is the better one but maybe people will disagree:
