She's just pissed because even community colleges would reject her.

She doesn't look like someone I'd take my CHANGE from, unless I'd already counted it twice.

And no, I don't need you to SuperSize that for me, honey.   :loser:

No, they wouldn't.  :bawl:  She is actually pretty literate compared to some of my husband's students.

Frightening thought, isn't it?  And of course they ALL **deserve** $100K/yr jobs because they've been to college.  It's amazing what some schools don't teach, and the crap with which they instead fill their sad little heads.

See, LYnZee, ye of the screwed up spelling?  The second sentence in the previous paragraph may look strange to you, but the way it was written was to avoid ending the sentence in a preposition.  A rule which I'm sure had you either gone to college or been awake through 8th grade English you would have known!  So do us all a favor and DON'T enter the workforce.  Please stay on your couch, eating bon-bons with your mother while your ass grows to even larger proportions than hers, thereby guaranteeing you'll be nobody's trophy wife.  This will also serve to spare the human race from future generations of your spawn, for which we will all be grateful.

There are plenty of people with a college diploma that are functionally illiterate.  I won't even get into their writing abilities.

The problem, Thor, is that educational attainment notwithstanding, the girl in question is a lazy little shit that typifies exactly what's WRONG with those who posess an entitlement mentality.  "I'm a girl, I shouldn't have to do anything except shake my ass, and even then only when it suits me," is the message she sends out, yet wants to be treated as an equal despite far from equal effort put forth.

Yeah, it's just an immature kid on the Net who happened to get the crap ridiculed out of her.  However, there are far more kids, both boys and girls, who share her do-nothing worship me over-inflated self-esteem egos.  I see her as a reflection of a society which has failed her and so many like her by not teaching her reality, self-reliance, and maturity.  Here's to hoping she grew up.

Who knows, maybe she has "special talents."  That'll last her until her looks decide to take a hike.

You know what they say--look at her mother and you see her in 20 years.  That being said, I wouldn't hit it, except maybe with a 9-iron.

What would make that skit more frightening than any Clive Barker movie or Stephen King novel would be a line at the end where Jay intones:

"And these people cancel YOUR votes."

It is amazing.  And frightening.  In a few more years, those illiterates entering college today will be out in the work force...destroying every document they "touch."  

On the plus side, my co-workers and I have half a wall covered with the amusing and illiterate notes left on broken equipment, so at least we can laugh at it.

What's really sad is when there are those of us young folk who try to correct our peers when they pull such stunts and we get slapped in the face (figuratively speaking). The end result is that we get openly mocked, teased, cursed at, you name it.

For example, many younger students these days are so used to the shorthand language of text-messaging, that it is actually showing up in papers, literature reviews, essays and other written assignments.  I had to correct a friend's work while checking it for them, and I discovered they were using "U" in the place of "you."   :thatsright:  They won't be making that same mistake again. ;)

It all goes downhill after Generation X.

I'm in awe of the stupidity that exists in todays youth.  There are exceptions of course, but generally speaking, it is scary.

I think she will love her new fame and it appears her mother will be so proud of her daughter. 

Seriously, my son will be graduating from college in May.  Many of his friends and fellow graduates-to-be believe they, too, will get a job right out of college in their chosen field and make six figures.  They seem to believe they will live a wonderful life of expensive new shoes, clothes, and purses, a beautiful apartment with great furniture, and they can finally get rid of that crappy little 10 year old car they have been driving and buy that BMW.  And their job?  It will be fabulous with a corner office.

In a sordid and selfish sort of way, she seems to be saying she'd be content to be a wife and mother, HOWEVER, she sadly seems to have forgotten(or never learned) that a man shouldn't and won't appreciate forever a mooching lounge-about who treats him like a paycheck. Being an at home wife or mother comes with responsibilities, many of which relieve her other half from having to do certain duties so that he might be able to pursue more options professionally to provide for his family. Raising a family of a hard-working man requires an adult, mature woman(and notice I said hard-working, not rich).

Besides the notion of making 6 figures out of college that some new graduates have are also a fair number of young women who think it will be enough to keep themselves in shape and screw their husband every now and then to earn the privelege of being provided for by him. They will find out a decade in when their sorry asses are dropped that men who support women at home generally have expectations of them other then 'pretty nails' or being 'fashionable'. Pitiful young women and, sadly, because of what they have been taught, their lives are set up for failure and then misery when the looks can no longer garner them a new partner and they are single, 40-something without an education or work history.

I believe a lot of this attitude of our younger generation stems from their upbringing by their parents.   :old:

It seems that a lot of kids these days are catered to, spoiled, and have it pounded into their brains that they are special and deserving of every luxury in life.  How many parents have gone into deep, deep debt to give their kids everything they want and everything they think they deserve? 

My husband is the director at a company and sees it all the time at work.  These kids come in from college and think they are special and definitely more intelligent than everyone. 

He was astonished to receive a call from the mother of one of these new employees to complain because he was informed that he could not have Christmas off because he was new and those with seniority were given first choice for time off.

I would be embarrassed if I were that individual, but apparently some peeps know no shame. Wow. lol

Her daddy makes to much money......and her mother does nothing but spend it.

That's my take on the story.

 :rotf:  After 20 years in my field, I still don't have a corner office....but I do have my own office..and it's not a cubicle..it actually has a door with walls that meet the ceiling... :-)

As for having a wonderful life, it really depends what field you decide to study.  You can have all of that and more if you go into nursing, for example.  Not so much if you study underwater basket weaving. :popcorn:
