Shit, and i thought 13 years of schooling was long... 10 years (0-9) elementary school. after this, you are qualified for any job that has "lol ur stupid" generalizations attached. 10th grade, if you want. (just a chill year. hang out, why do your homework at all when you can attend college/high school with a 9th grader. you can choose 11-12th, but there's only like, 3 schools that offer that and it's for real slow people. High school for 3 years after 10th grade. so you're 17-22 when done depending on your choices. which means that a 5 year degree at a university can be achieved at the age of 22 (if you start attending at age 17). boom, done, ready for the factory, deadly stunts or university. seriously, what is up with taking from the age of 6 to the age of 55 to get an education... when i think about it, i always imagine the bliss of living a selfproviding life in a forest of eastern europe.

WHOA, curveball on the job hunt. After both best buy and the photography studio I applied to outing me by losing my data on the system and hiring someone before they put out the 'hiring' signs, I got contacted by a recruiter for a blue cross blue shield thing. I'm gonna work 40 hours/week for two, maybe one, maybe no weeks, because of a strike. I get to maintain a computer that runs itself, and reload printers. Yay, it's just like the copy center back at office max, except instead of retarded customers I'll have to fight off a retarded picket line :buddy:

[QUOTE=MacFag]Now, WHY, OH WHY??? DO PEOPLE PUT UP WITH PC’S???????????? WHY?????????????????????????????????????????

You ****ing PC users can all burn in hell. You can have your eyes pulled out of their sockets while layers of your skin are being peeled off you with a peeler.

I wanna cut open your brain and see what part of it could be so moronic as to WANT to get a PC over a mac!!!!!! WHAT THE **** IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE??? PC USERS ARE THE STUPIDEST PEOPLE ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH!!! THEY THINK THEY VIRUSES AND DRIVERS AND DE-FRAGMENTING ARE THINGS THAT YOU HAVE TO DO ON COMPUTERS. BUT GUESS WHAT IDIOTS????? THEY’RE NOT. YOU DON’T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THEM ON A MAC. YOU JUST DON’T.[/QUOTE] I [B]hate[/B] people like that... All they do is talk about what the mac has, but never what the PC has.

You know, on my MacBook, Windows 7 is now my primary OS. It actually works faster than Mac OS, for me. Ironic, huh? And I'm pissed that Jobs is against Flash. I want an iPad, but is it REALLY that hard to make something like iMobileCinema? It works fucking great on the iPhone.
