Rocket Rigby? I see no way that can go wrong at all.

The official twitter account of Sonic the Hedgehog is shitposting intensely right now and for the past few days. It's getting to ridiculous levels.

On the other hand, YOLO Juliet feels perfectly spot-on as a title.

Some of these were quite amusing, but the Woody one had me in stitches.

Shitposting?

pwhodges · « **Reply #471 on:** 14 Jun 2015, 09:59 »

The term is surely somewhat obvious? Specifically, I see it used most often for making large numbers of essentially content-free posts.

I'm buying travel insurance and their policy has a special clause that says they will not pay out if I have an accident related to or caused by a nuclear reaction. What.

"Well, you see, the electrical utility that powers the airport uses nuclear power, so we're not responsible for anything that happens."

If you're a sonic fan and want to see some sanic memes, you should head over to twitter.com/sonic_hedgehog. You might even see a promotional poster for HL3&K.

Else, you could just not care about my passing remark.

Wait, what? I assumed "shitposting" meant "talking shit", or insulting people. (I haven't looked at the link)

That would also work, but the more common usage IME is referring to shitting all over the thread/forum/whatever.

That's probably what it means, I just meant the meaning clearly wasn't obvious.

I'm two years away from slaying car payments, but student loans? Hahahahaha that's decades away.

cesium133 · « **Reply #487 on:** 15 Jun 2015, 21:27 »

I lucked out. Got a full scholarship as an undergrad, worked as a research assistant for grad school, and now I don't have any student loans...

Method of Madness · « **Reply #488 on:** 15 Jun 2015, 21:49 »

I went to a cheap state school for undergrad, my loans are for my two (so far) attempts at grad school in fields I realized I didn't want to pursue (education and law). Hopefully third time's a charm, since I'll be taking loans out for this one too when I start next year.

The Seldom Killer · « **Reply #489 on:** 16 Jun 2015, 23:23 »

I took out a loan in my first year of university. I failed and decided not to return. Instead I took up a series of menial and degrading jobs and consistently earned under the repayment threshold. I then started moving around a lot and even changed countries a couple of times. In all of this, the government seems to have lost track of me.

Mind you, I can't help but think that they aren't really looking that hard. I have a passport, driving license, a consistent history of paying tax, have frequently mithered my Member of Parliament on petty issues. Oh, and I've worked for multiple departments of central government and at one time had the privilege of being a named individual on a key interdepartmental policy document that was issued to the Treasury and Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs.

I didn't go to college. I'm happy with how my life turned out as a result. No hole to dig myself out of, so I'm able to save my surplus pay, and at the age of 39, I have $55k in various assets (CDs, IRA, bank account, etc).

hedgie · « **Reply #491 on:** 17 Jun 2015, 03:36 »

Apparently, more USians are going to University in Germany because it's free, even for non-Germans, and they now have programmes that are entirely in English. Part of me is thinking to do it to finish my education, just because it'd be less expensive than doing it in any habitable place in the US.

BeoPuppy · « **Reply #492 on:** 17 Jun 2015, 09:46 »

... that's insane. The roadblocks americans have to hurdle before going to university ... insane. Incomprehensible to me.

Neko_Ali · « **Reply #493 on:** 17 Jun 2015, 10:07 »

They aren't being viewed as roadblocks though. As companies push for having degrees and internships for nearly every job, people see those going to college as ways to make money. Hence they are willing to give out student loans like candy, knowing it will put those students in pretty much life-long debt at this point. All the while pushing for the 'necessity' to go to university. They want you there, so they can put you in debt to them. Just one more example of how in the US citizens are viewed as commodities and not you know.. people or valuable resources. Something to be used and used until broken and expended, then discarded.

Kugai · « **Reply #494 on:** 17 Jun 2015, 14:47 »

And that's what's wrong with the education system in the States and why you are falling behind in certain fields because of it.
