i don't want to work
so i haven't much enjoyed working. so maybe i'll go back to school. but i don't feel like paying anything for it. also i don't feel like contacting people for application references. isn't there some place, like the philippines or something where i can go to school for like $2 a year or something. without providing references?

GOOD FUCKING GOD!!! You ***ARE*** a Democrat.

My suggestion is, first, contac Ms. Fluke at that Catholic University Georgetown. First and foremost, we know that she is a good lay....she MUST be, becuase by the volume of birth control she requires, she fucks early and often...so first hook up with her for free sex.

Then...contact Nancy Pelosi, and tell her that you are desperate unhappy, depressed, really, becuase your sole ambition in life is to prove that man can get by on nothing...and it IS worthy research....and if man can't be happy in his ambitions, what the fuck is the use of living anyway....so if the Democrats won't sponsor your life, then you will, for real, kill yourself, and, *IN* your death note, you will indict Nancy Pelosi and whateve that fuckhead in the other house is names...but anyway, you will blame it on Government, and the refusal of Democrats to support your life's artistic ambition....

Anyway....don't give up your dream, brother!!!!

also i'm not interested in those supposedly free programs that actually require you to do ta/ra duties. that feels like a scam to me.

Uh, Dude, that's why they call it "work." If it was always fun, they'd call it "fun." But seriously, find something you *like* to do, and then find a way to get paid for it.

no responses? LAME. there must be some country where i can go to school for dirt cheap. i don't even care about the quality of school much, i just want to get away and meet people. like back in the day.

If everyone is paid to have sex, who is doing the paying?

It's free for Uruguayan citizens, but I don't know about foreign students. I would think that it it were free for everybody, they'd be swamped with applicants.

Also, just because you like having sex doesn't mean you like having sex with the kind of people who can't get sex without paying for it.
Jamiet99uk (808 D)

OR that you are appealing enough that lots of people would pay to have sex with you. I'm presuming bolshoi is a pasty, overweight teenage boy, so he'll really need to start shedding the pounds and using more moisturiser if he wants to make it as a rent boy.

germany's better, i heard even foreign students don't have to pay to go to school there. but i'm guessing they have standards. assholes. anyway that's another scam. the university system is still a monopolizing piece of crap, i think the costs are just borne more by donations or taxes. probably taxes though. but i'm not sure, that article didn't say.

Most European countries provide free university education to any European students provided they speak the local language. That way, the rules are the same for everyone, including the natives, and the schools are still not overwhelmed by foreign students.

they just cap the number of foreign students getting in on this. so... it is a bit of a scam, this capping drives up the grades so that it's almost like a scholarship.

World Diplomacy IX Strategy
Does anyone here know of any good sites for country-by-country strategies for the World Diplomacy variant? A quick Google search yielded nothing, but I find myself getting crushed by larger empires mid-game almost every time I play, and I'd like to know how to fix this.

joining games
I would really like to play games with more talented players than the usual bet15 noobs. I don´t want to seem arrogant, but I want to test my personal skills. I played lots of gunboat games to train my technique, and now I am thinking of joining a game bet 100 with anonymous players. How do I know those aren´t cheaters in there. Maybe I am paranoid, but this specific size of bet seems quite suspicious to me. Can anybody help me how to find adequate games?

WebDip Fantasy Baseball League
Hey guys, in the fall we ran a pretty successful (except for two no-shows at the end) fantasy football league, so why not try it again for baseball? League will be on Yahoo (if someone recommends something different like ESPN, we're welcome) and size will be how many people we can gather.

failed stat question?
the bolshoi manner was interviewing for a new groom of the stool and the applicant claimed to have some kind of mathematical aptitude. i gave him this problem just to mess with him and he seemed to not give me much of an answer. is he qualified? for some reason this position seems to have a high attrition rate.

Final Game 2
http://webdiplomacy.net/board.php?gameID=76725
This game was unfortunately cancelled, so no one will be able to see what happened in it (is this a flaw in the system?).
I thought I'd make this thread anyway in case people wanted to know who was who, or give a EoG for as far as the game got. I think it was good before the extended pause...

Languages
I love languages and linguistics, so I'm starting a thread about it in the hope that at least one thread here won't derail into a trollfest of shit-flinging. What languages do you speak or want to learn? What languages do you find interesting or beautiful? Are there any autodidacts here, sitting at home with Mandarin flashcards?

...Political Science?
I'll be trying to double-major in English and PoliSci when I transfer this fall, and was just curious what those who are currently PoliSci majors--and even better, maybe those with PoliSci careers--think? (And a bonus question: Without cheating, from WHICH literary work do we get the infamous phrase "Kill all the lawyers?" I'd give a hint as to the author, but...do I NEED to, when *I* am making the reference?) ;)
