Trimson Grondag 3 posted:he also thinks that when people in crime films talk about ‘donating to the policeman’s ball’ they are literally talking about funding a sit down dinner event instead of it being a bribe into a slush fund. surely therefore his weekly police dinners are what the boys in blue want. lol trying to bribe people with more work events

seriously, someone should do a study. seems like instruction at stanford in the late 80s to mid 90s has inflicted more damage upon society than any other "pluteschool", even yale e: hmm maybe a bit longer of a timespan than that. i was thinking we've got a couple of high profile sociopaths that graduated later i suppose (elizabeth holmes, maybe the gray nazi? idk), plus that kind of poo poo is probably kinda perpetual anyway what with legacy students and faculty Beeftweeter fucked around with this message at 05:45 on Apr 29, 2024 |
