Yeah, it’s a drag, but not nearly as much of a drag as subbing for the rest of my life. I kind of enjoy school, but even if I hated it, I think it would probably be worth my trouble. I’m assuming that you’re in the same boat. Either way, I’m wishing you much success.

Once again, I understand exactly where you’re coming from. Now that I’m going through my second time of college – community college – any success tastes bitter. I think to myself, “Who cares how well I’m doing? I’m so far behind most people, it is pathetic. This is pathetic.” It doesn’t matter that half the class is older than me, this isn’t where I should be. At least that’s what I tell myself.

Anyways, right there with you.

I don’t ever want to hear you speak disparagingly about my butthole-themed posts again.

That’s an interesting point about age. I actually did a research paper on the Internet for one of my classes this semester, and they concluded that texting and blogging are actually making kids MORE literate, not less, because, like you said, people do almost no writing outside of grocery lists and thank you notes after college. I was also thinking today about a paper I wrote about Internet hate speech for a class I was taking when I was 19, and that one went over well too.

I think the biggest problem is that I spend a lot of time and energy trying to find ways to convince myself that I suck. I don’t know why I do it, but I do. It’s easy when things are going poorly, but it requires more mental gymnastics when people say nice things to me.

And thank you for the storm troopers pictures. That ended up eating about an hour of my time. That guy had a lot of photos on there!

Thanks. I saw the picture and was like “THAT’S ME!” It’ll be sweet to hang out.

Most professors don’t give out praise like candy, so don’t knock it when you get it. Your blog certainly contains some good writing, particularly in non-butthole-themed posts. I mean, you’ve seen the seething pool of illiteracy that is the Internet at large, right?

And the age thing is not quite the factor that you’re making it out to be. How many people become noticeably better writers after college? Really, only those who work at it.

Apropos the random picture in the post, enjoy:
