@MonteSyrie oh! the work is too hard!

Ok, just shit on the floor. Whatever, as long as you care.

@akoustov And every academic should understand a slippery slope logically fallacious argument when they see one.

@bannon1975 Sure, that was their answer, but it is not THE answer. WE must stop deifying childhood. No, they do not have the answer. No, they will not magically learn to read if you give them football candy unicorn books.

@MahikRani50377 He looks old enough so that it's likely his wife is shopping. He came for the drive but can't stand her shopping style. 20 years ago you'd see twenty guys sleeping in the parking lot.

@maaaackle Preaching to the choir my friend. "Efficient" seems like such a terrible waste of a good life.

@jennfrey Don't just reject the paper, but lifetime ban for the person submitting it

@RichardMorrison Or, maybe they just don't want to die of a heart attack as a fifty year old fat slob

@MadelaineLucyH Pretty sure anyone who thinks something is gay, is overly worried about looking gay. That's problematic on two fronts.

But yes, wuthering heights is a great book. Unfortunately the plot has been copied so many times it feels cliche now.

@Kristinartz It was glorious
