Do the humanities need a rebrand?

[Matt Dillon]

It's always people who never went to college who set themselves up as the arbiters of which college degrees have any value.

Always.

Oh! The Hyperbole!

 

[Jerry Mathers]

You are the person with holes in his pants showing your underwear. You do no realize everyone is laughing at you.

I see everyone on my side against you and cypress the other fag pompous moron.

Jerry, didn't your English teachers tell you if you write poorly others will think you are stupid? You look foolish using bad grammar.

I've never seen you write anything interesting, funny, or creative.

You find my threads and posts extremely interesting. That is precisely why you lurk my threads, and relentlessly read them and compose responses to me.

I have no professional relationships with anyone on this board. So what.

One doesn’t need a degree in any of those to be a student of them.
Well most people don’t.
Maybe you do.
The Japanese have a term for lifelong learning called Kaizen.
Apparently you’re not familiar with it and stop learning after getting a degree.
Or do you stay in school your entire life getting one degree after another?

I said it doesn't hurt to be a student of the human condition by studying history, literature, music, art, psychology, sociology, etc. I didn't say anything about that being the only way to be a person of some depth and insight.

But the simple fact is you are almost never going to get a professional job with Microsoft or Apple with a high school degree.

Why does the right wing hate the humanities? I still do not get it.

FOX told them there is a pandemic of 'basket weaving' majors taking up valuable space at American universities.

Must be. Nothing else makes sense. And fascists always attack the universities.

You find my threads and posts extremely interesting.

What’s interesting about you is how full of yourself you are trying to impress a few souls on a little known and used message board.

That is precisely why you lurk my threads,

I rarely post in your threads. And this is BidenPresident’s thread.

and relentlessly read them and compose responses to me.

Poor you.

An admission that I’m right about not needing a degree to learn liberal arts.

But the simple fact is you are almost never going to get a professional job with Microsoft or Apple with a high school degree.

Nor would I want one. I’m practically allergic to computers. And desk jobs for that matter.

If you actually thought I was annoying, irritating, boring you would not continuously lurk my threads, and relentlessly try to get my attention by reading and responding to my posts.

I've never even had a chick that liked me lurk me and seek my attention this much.

I rarely post in your threads.

That's a flagrant lie​

 

[Moosakofsky]

If you actually thought I was annoying, irritating, boring you would not continuously lurk my threads,

Actually that's why i post to u.

That's a flagrant lie​

I don't know the threads you've started but the only one in which i posted in lately was your 6 CA universities thread.
Caught in another lie.

 

[Cypress]

It's not normal for you to spend countless hours of your life reading the posts of someone you find irritating. It's highly abnormal.

I don't know the threads you've started but the only one in which i posted in lately was your 6 CA universities thread.
Caught in another lie.

I specifically wrote you lurk my threads. Lurking doesn't have to involve posting.
You post enough complaints and whines to me on other people's threads to draw the attention of mental health professionals.

Oh! The Hyperbole!

Anytime someone chuckles about basketweaving being a major, or that humanities grads get stuck in Starbucks careers, they are telegraphing that they never went to college

 

[Jerry Mathers]

whemetever yo sayyy

yes.

you're idiotic.

stay in your spot.

 

[Jerry Mathers]

Why does the right wing hate the humanities? I still do not get it.

it not about liking literature.

its about the cost and financial outcomes.

quit being an obtuse troll.
