You just think that my point about student loans is irrelevant because you don't want to admit that advising a poor person to commit to long-term debt with mad rates is ****ty advice. Plus, it would be even worse for Batlord since they would base the terms of his loan based on whether or not he has a safety net to fall on like a middle class family. There are far more practical steps that he can take before he embarks on a subprime education. Maybe the companies that provide your student loans don't use the spiked dildo, but in America, they do and they make it spin too.
Not talking to Frown for any reason other than I legit think Coltrane might have made me a better person short term in this discussion. A Love Supreme just felt right, bro. **** you, yeah I'm drunk but it all just felt good.

but yes frown, please tell me again how hard it is to pay off student loans, i have no idea about how that works and need to be enlightened.



i know exactly what this has to do with class and i'm quite sure i've explained that multiple times at this point.
I don't think using me as an example of anything makes the slightest amount of sense. I am a freak whose lack of motivation is extreme to the point that it is completely unfair to use me to justify any argument that is not specifically tailored to me. I am all by myself a strawman for the rest of the human race. So please leave me out of any example that would extend to the rest of the human race. And no that is not a joke.

How could a man who understands that hard work can have positive results need to be enlightened on something? He clearly already knows all.

Yeah exactly what I said. I know all this ****. I just don't do it cause I'm a self-destructive lunatic or some ****. I am not representative of my fellow man.

THIS IS WHAT IM SAYING. you guys took what i was saying about your situation and mine, and acted like that's how i felt about every person in the world. what i was saying is that you're a lazy **** and if you got of your ass you could at least make more of yourself than what you are now.

i guess in some weird way i was telling you that you have potential, or some gay **** like that.

i wonder what it's like to try and argue with somebody without actually trying to read their retorts, must be pretty wild.

can you guys point out at the moment where you feel i tried to apply the idea that hard work will automatically fix anyones problem outside of batlord's?

i will retract it if i said it, but i'm pretty ****ing sure i didn't. so either get off my dick, or jerk me while you're there.

You tried to use me as an example of something. What was it? Cause I can assure you it was a poor example of anything but of my poorness.

but yeah, i'm grateful for what i have, but don't chalk up your working at burger king and living at home as some life is hard bs. you and i both know it's down to your own laziness and general inability to actually commit to something that isn't alcoholism.

also that argument that i'm "dependent" on my parents is pretty weak. since i've started university they have given me all of 0$. i worked at the very least 45 hours a week from April through to September (i'd wager more hours than you work in a calendar year) in order to give me the money I need to buy groceries, pay rent, cell bills, etc. and also owe the government over $20,000 in student loans.

all you have in life is the hand that your dealt, and as cliche'd as it is, it's up to you to either work with it or fold. i prefer to make the most out of it.

life is what it is. like i said, you get what you get, it's up to you to make the most of it. it's not really surprising that trying to make something of your self yields better results than complaining about it.

btw, i'm not saying this applies everywhere. there are exceptions where life really has stopped you from going anywhere in our society. think single mother of 4, ex-convict, lack of any parental figure, etc. but if batlord is trying to pin his current situation on anything but his own decisions than he's just choosing to be ignorant to the reality of the situation.

yeah again this is pretty irrelevant and has nothing to do with the topic at hand. student loans are available for anyone so long as their parents make under a certain threshold of money. and they will **** us all in the ass when we have to start paying them back.

btw the alcohol is making you emotional again, way to go way overboard off of a joke i made.
ok waiting

First you have to find where we said you said that it happened automatically.
