Star War Sex Parrot posted:yeah i agree that the student loan situation is getting out of hand in the US, but people need to stop accepting said loans for WORTHLESS DEGREES people are told that they are not worthless and are not equipped properly to figure out that they're actually worthless it's exploitation plain and simple and blaming the folks trying to improve their lives is the wrong tack

there's a well known design school in pasadena where you can go to learn to draw racecars because vrrrm brrrmmmm i love drawing racecars!!! and daddy is bankrolling my racecar drawing college. it is 3 semesters a year at $35,000 a semester. a friend of a friend went there and said that when their sketching class needed a car as a drawing reference, the school bought them a brand new bmw.

What I did: I sat her down, said I want to break up. She recoiled but I put my foot down because I was all fired up. I slept on the couch a few days while she cried a lot and figured out a new place to live. She moved out i think two days later and I haven't seen her since!

Not to mention that they screwed him badly when he had his stroke.
