Ok, it's true college isn't what it used to be.

A college degree used to be rare, meaning you could get any degree and do any job.

Obviously, it's not like that anymore. Everyone has a degree. You need to get a degree that means something.

If you have rich parents that will support you, great, you can fuck around and graduate after 8 years with an English degree, and you'll be alright.

If your parents aren't rich and can't support you indefinitely, you need a degree in something that is hiring or will be hiring when you graduate. Preferably, with a large paycheck, so paying back the loans is reasonable.

Or, ya know, just don't go to college. Learn to weld or install sattelite dishes, or even better, be a general contractor. You can make a goddamn fortune as a general contractor.

Or, do what Mark Twain did, and mary into wealth. Love is fake anyway!

But, ya know, being 18 and impressionable to romantic ideas, it's tempting to think you don't have to follow this guidance and get an art degree and you'll be fine. Don't fall into that. Be smart.

While we're on the topic. Everybody needs to read a book about pleasuring their partners.

She comes first

Her guide to going down

I'm sure you can get more focused content for your particular situation if you looked for it, but don't assume you know what You're doing. Read and make the world a better place.

This is exactly right. This is why rich people don't pay taxes, because everything can be written off in service of a company. But it can only be written off against the taxes collected on the gains of the company, so unless your company makes money, it doesn't really make sense.

I don't know what based means and at this point I'm too afraid to ask.

Obligatory "alcohol is really bad for you, your mental health and the Earth and we shouldn't be glorifying its consumption." Send me your downvotes.

I see your point. Personally, I like the brackets and braces, they help organize. Or maybe that's just what I'm used to.

It would be great to use some emojis in coding.

Imagine how much more readable it would be if you could break a loop with 💀 or return true with 👍. Or use ❓for ifs, or ↔️ for switch (the emoji didn't work for that one). Or use an emoji to represent a custom object?

Maybe the ECMA should get on that!

Edit: I guess you can use emojis for custom objects in js.

Edit 2: ➡ for console.log

It's such an easy mindset to fall into, esp that young. Your other makes you feel so special, and you can easily think you can replicate that with anyone. You can't, it comes very seldom, if ever.

I was old enough to have used Napster before it was terrible.
