PiKAss2001, I already showed you where you contradicted yourself. As many others have explained to you, READING IS FUNDAMENTAL.

Further, the only folks who think a degree from a top tier school can be "worthless" are those who couldn't get in. Now, you can either continue to place yourself in the same category as als436, Kevin, Kapital, etc., or you can just admit that you don't really understand the dynamics of this topic and be on your merry way. !Gracias!

Furthermore, anyone who went to a top tier university would know that theory and critical thinking are emphasized over practical job-related skills at the undergraduate level (with the exception of a handful of majors such as accounting). I am sorry that you were not aware of this, but I'm not surprised.

I'll just say that whether you realize it or not, you just validated and confirmed our "category's" points.

Nice play on my screename you're pretty immature for being a product of a top tier university. It seems like you've joined the bloc of members on this site that tend to group up and personally attack members that don't agree with you. And you're right that I don't understand the dynamics of welfare because I work for a living. I'll leave the topic to you and the others on this board currently on WIC. Ciao!

That's groupthink for you; you don't agree with the crowd, then you're called every name under the sun except a child of God.

You should read, as well. Particularly in chronological order of posts.

I am aware of what you're alluding to, and I also acknowledged that in another post by qualifying that in saying "for the most part". FWIW, whatever jabs made from PiKA, et al, pales in comparison to the the forest fire inflicted on Kevin alone, to say nothing of Als412 or PiKA.

I'm glad you were able to find employment with your lack of reading comprehension skills, critical thinking ability, and wit. Maybe you can show your buddy Kaptial how you were still able to find work despite these flaws. He seems to need a J-O-B...

Actually, I already have a job. Several of them as a matter of fact; hence my starting a consulting firm as a vehicle to consolidate these jobs through.

Why don't you stick to the issues at hand rather than being so concerned about my personal affairs as a weak attempt to make a point?

In other words, you are unemployed.

Consulting, lots of projects, etc. usually are code words for "I-ain't-got-no-job."

When you gain an informed understanding of the topic at hand and start to make sense, then I will stop picking on you.

I'm sure it drives you nuts that someone who received a BA from a lower ranked school could find more success in life than a graduate of a top tier university, but it happens all the time. How's that humanities degree working out for ya? Not fair, right?

Make fun or try to discredit me and the university I went to all you want, but it's not going to change the ultimate fact that I am in my 20's already making DAMN GOOD money and STILL EMPLOYED!!!!!!!

To Do List:
Pull myself up by my hooker boot straps.
Get "How to be a Ho" by Velvet Jones and all the books by Karrine "Supahead" Steffans via ILL
Get on Kanye's Workout Plan so I don't ever have to work at the mall again

You should probably stop posting and go shovel someone's sidewalk.

That's right, LA. Continue to deflect off the subject by insulting and name calling, rather than giving us a little benefit of a doubt because there just possibly could be some truth in what we're saying.

Fact is, your deflection proves you don't have a good rebuttal, and what we're saying has at least some degree of legitimacy.

Kudos to Kevin, als, PiKA, et al for standing your ground so tenaciously and (for the most part, anyway) not resorting to ad hominem attacks to save face.
