College

Hello again all you workshops and Tomahawks welcome to another episode of Jesse Wilders Guide to Life. I'm Jesse that's Wilder and we're here to guide you live dang it. Yeah we are. Hey bro, wanna see what's on my fingers?

Oh you got something on your fingers. I'll send you a little pig. I'll put this on social media like I always do when I say I will. I wish you wouldn't put a picture of your fingers on social media.

Someone that I know said to me, hey Wilder, I know that you're a fidget you're a fidgeter you like just touch stuff or whatever. Take a look at these only five dollars on Amazon. Does that do something for you? It's nothing dog it's nothing.

This is little rings I guess they're quite tight and they do hurt. They look like hair ties to me. They look like an elastic hair ties to me. Yeah they're metal though.

And he has one on every finger which can't be the right way to use them. If for sure is dude what is the right way to use them? What is this? I think it's probably a you do like one on one finger and that way you can kind of like pinch your thumb and roll it with your it came in a pack of like eight or nine of them.

Not not 10 so not enough for both hands so I guess that sort of tells you something. Here's what you do you go every other and you go to your toes too. Have you put them on your toes yet? What's on your fingers right now?

I got a wedding band and I always have a ring pop so that's pretty for sure stand it for me. I got us I got to take a little slug of my what about your Super Bowl ring what hand is that? I keep it on my do you? Welcome to the show.

Good start. Good start. Good start. Yeah this is what we learned in college.

We met in college so this one it's weird that we haven't done this one before. A little bit of a longtime coming to be H. I have some categories I got cooking already. Okay great.

Can I let him fly classes obviously a category very not a whole thing. Characters of course. Extra curricular. Yeah.

Characters. What about objective? Campus is one for me. Sure.

And then you said objective. Yeah I don't know what that means but I will get the objective of college. Mm-hmm. You know what I'm saying?

Classes let's just lump some together. Your general ed classes. I think a two. What do you think about that?

well you a two huh? Well okay so general ed classes is boring and lame. Yeah general ed classes mostly stupid but depending on so we went to the San Francisco state we went at the time where the CSU system is during the which is why we're so fucking smart. Yeah us and Danny Glub.

Disgraced actor Jeffrey Tambor. Yes cool make sure to put that one up on the pedestal. So I we went when the CSU system was at its very poorest and we got very demerit. Don't go to school when the public money ain't there which feels like probably.

Yeah don't go to school when the governor of your state is Arnold Schwarzenegger. Yeah because what happened to us is tuition went up every semester. Oh demerit. Oh classes am I right?

Yeah big time. Demerit tuition. Demerit loans. We don't even need to talk about loans.

Fuck it suck. You know what if you out there you do have loans even I an idiot Wabu paid off my student loans and that means that you can too. Oh I didn't know you paid them off that's sick as hell. Yeah bruh.

I took out more. How about that? You couldn't get another than things. Yeah I slurped them down.

The graph has a student loan addiction. Mm-hmm. It pairs well with my gambling addiction. So I think general ed is a two because obviously like going to history class going to biology class going to math class when those are not your majors suck it sucks it sucks a lot but general ed classes you often have them with the same group of people so it's easy to get a little study group going or somebody to cheat off of or whatever and I don't know about you but my general ed like art classes because we had to like pick a focus or whatever the fuck it was an emphasis for your general ed.

That was fun. I took a guitar class and got credit for that. That was easy. Oh sure yeah I I scooted out of a taking a math class because I got they said that there was a Microsoft Excel class that counted bingo bingo bingo so I think general ed is a two because they're not they can be really challenging they're they're not very fun but sometimes they sneak in an easy one or you at least are suffering like I had a horrible biology class that I really suffered through but but I like three people on my dorm floor were in the class so we can all kind of study together worked out nicely.

Yeah you talk about ocean mat. No I took a regular biology class before because you had to take two or whatever and I don't even know what fucking classes I took. Yeah of course not bro you were fucking half asleep the whole time. What are you talking about?

I was more than half. I got a little update re my finger squeezers if you want to hear. I don't need it. I guess I did just pick up a pen.

I picked up a pen and tried to write while there's one of these on every hand. I can't close my hand in a good way and if you're wondering if you can write with these things the answer is no. What are you writing? Like what are you not paying attention to what we're doing presently?

I'm fucking I'd like to make my little notes so I don't interrupt you. Oh smart I just interrupt you. That's all I did. I'm mostly just drawing pictures of boobies and dongs though.

Yeah what was the oh you mentioned ocean mat I think like it was marine biology. Correct. I think the good teacher. Lucky teacher is a two.

No I was just gonna say like using rate my professor. Like there is great for those of you going off to college this year maybe you're just starting or you're thinking about going. The professor it really makes it. You can't like it doesn't matter what the class is and I know this is not we're not saying anything like hot off the presses.

You probably haven't heard but boy take it from me personally. A teacher can really fuck up or make better a class by a lot a lot a lot so I would say rate my professor is a is a clutch move. Hey bro what do we give college? In general?

Very pretty good obviously right. I don't know man it's hard to like it's hard I think it's a three. But see it is pretty it is a very expensive piece of paper that says I can I'm creative writing. It is but first of all that's our bad for picking stupid fucking majors that's our thing.

Still I think it's very pretty good. You don't really need it. It's helpful. Well you and I have had very different experiences I absolutely need it for my career.

It is a hard fast requirement. True. And I say this to all my students and to my brother. College is like the stuff outside of the classroom.

The classroom is your payment to me. Like I went to classes as my payment in addition to the many many many thousands of dollars I was giving them as my payment to like be a little fuck around. Like I did my good boy. We talk about this all the time.

I did my good boy chore which is go to class today. Yeah. And now maybe I'll start drinking at 4 p.m. or 2 p.m.

or noon because I have nothing else to do for the next 70 hours or something. You know what I mean? Like the freedom of college mixed with the lack of responsibility that you've got. So bonus points bro.

Your fucking parents are gone. Your lame ass parents are fucking gone. No more parents. But they still give you money.

The ideal situation is they give you money from afar. That's what parents do not speak to them. You do not update them on your life but they silently hand you money. It is a perfect system.

See I went to SF State with you but I'm from the Bay Area so I did see my clothes. Yeah. And I did too. It was an easy drive.

Yes but they gave me lots of they paid my rent for a long time. I can't I can't I can't knock that at all. No that's very quite lit when mommy and daddy pay for shit for you and we realized that's very privileged of us. Yes.

But if you have it it's good. Yeah. Actually speaking of pay extracurricular a job is a one. No well no I think it's a two.

Like you can make friends that way. Yeah I guess I did meet Rich Jeff that way. If you don't live on campus and you're like commuting from your house because your college is so close. You need to get a job so you can meet people.

Yeah that's fair. For me a job I think it's a good I mean I will I liked having a job I made friends it was cool to have money but college is one of the set because of the Affordadget parrot help. College is one of those times where like when you have a job and your friends don't it doesn't actually limit what they can do a lot of the time. You know what I mean?

So it's like oh we're still do we're still living the same life but 20 hours a week I have to go be a mall security guard. Right. What's that about? Why does why is that?

But yeah you're right it's a two because it is tied to have monies and it's good it also it's good to keep the it's good something to keep you responsible because classes wasn't doing it like I can't show up 35 minutes late to work like I did to a lot of classes you know bro but like don't forget and this has to be a bonus point Cafe Froso. Cafe Froso. Fuck. Nothing.

Gotta have little cafe a little place for treats all the food stuff that's to me a very quite little campus it doesn't even matter if it's good. Yeah we had a subway on our campus don't care it's a three. So our dining hall was very very bad the main dining center of which there was only one which apparently that's lame didn't know that all these other yeah every other college has like ten yeah ours was very bad and I assumed that is just kind of how it goes. Yeah.

It's how they get you. No dude every other person ever doctor has been like no our dining hall was sick which one the one by North the one by the book of burglar. Yeah college not a dining hall that's one of the danky pizza but if you college to dining hall that's where they got the burritos and it's like oh work rose to loo hours you're putting dining hall see I had it as a two because it was such a social event for me and my it was that was the bar that was the actual bar is the like oh should we should go to the dining hall for three hours. Yeah.

Yeah. So to me it's gotta be a it's gotta be a two yeah okay extra curriculars I don't it's to me I guess it's a two I think both of us would actually say it's a one but fraternities and sororities I don't have much experience with everyone that I know that was in one seems to think it was the absolute tits so like it's hard for me to say it's a one but like seems so lame I know we didn't have really much of a great culture at a sub-state if you can imagine it but yeah shocking what other what kind of characters you said characters what kind of characters you got oh my god I mean just like where do we begin like roommates what are you gonna get yeah the random roommate is tough I'm I'm it's a borderline two for me but I would hate to put it as a one you know what I highly recommend is doing what I did and never having to deal with the traditional roommate scenario where you are literally in one tiny room I was in sweets the whole time four person sweets we had our own bathroom baby we had our kitchen baby it was like a little apartment and it was awesome yeah it must be nice dude I was up in fucking Mary Ward Hall living in a goddamn prison cell me listen you know hundered people in the names Mary Ward Hall I was in the towers yeah it's honestly the towers people it was a different we've been very word folk didn't I mean we were living in straight poverty the one percent motherfucker let's go towers was the shit oh my god we had that I had to walk I was in one of these prison cell buildings I can't even imagine having to like not have a bathroom whenever you want I had to walk the other the fucked up thing about it too is that the each each I'm sure you bent you went into those from time to time and like the men's room and the women's room bathrooms there's one per floor one one man's one women's per floor and like they were on opposite sides of the bit so like the elevator open in the building and there was like in the middle of the building and then there was like ten rooms here left ten rooms here right well the I the men's room was on the left side of this building and my room was on the forest right I was like one away from the end so I had to like walk the entire length of the building in my fucking shower shoes with my wet hair and another goddamn tub so stupid yes sucks so for one campus the like prison very quite late the towers oh bro very quite late where's this go just I think amenities we need amenities on here right that's campus I think it's a the village market moment of shout out for the village market was a little basically like bodega that was on campus open really free they had slices they had candies they had that candy circus peanuts and when I was a sophomore I put a mark on the bag to see if it ever gets sold and by the time I graduated it was still in that store that seems unbelievable but I believe yeah there was like it's one on the very in the one in the very back I marked it with a sharpie and wow it's they sold like one or two of those the whole time that I was there incredible yeah so I have non-dining hall e to recess of three but I put village market as a they also used to do those those good little like subs and they would heat him up in that pizza yeah and they had a hunk that worked there that hunk I don't remember a honk did you sure about that he's a honk damn extra curricular parties is three obviously it's like 20% of the reason you go to college yeah 20 however for objective to party is a one right because those people never made it that was like a I feel like the people that showed up and were clearly like in college to do parties yes by like I had two of those people on my dorm floor freshman year and they both got bounced out of the kicked out of the dorms oh I knew people that got the dorms for that same reason yeah and it was just like hey man we can only this is the 60th time we've got you with nine people and drugs in your room it's got a big gotta draw the line here characters the fucking narks bro all the narks the places filled with narks yeah you talking all right yeah like literal narks probably there are RAs who are narks there are just like anyone that works for the school at all who's a fucking narc any teacher is a narc it's a fucking it's a huge place full of narks and you're just trying to have fun and everyone is trying to stop you that's college I didn't feel like I was big that dude narc don we had a narc ass all right what did it were they just constantly knocking on the door telling you to shut up well first of all he lived across the hall which is not ideal tough he one time he like came into our room to we had a new roommate delivered to us and they came into the room this dude came in without like our you know knowledge or permission and like saw like something that he shouldn't have seen and then fucking narc us out and we got in trouble what a fuck face that feels you know what it was it wasn't even like drugs or something stupid it was a fucking street sign that we stole that we had stolen classes you do you collect trash from the ground where does that one call it is extracurricular collecting trash is probably honestly it's probably a three it's quite the thrill I would say it is you just for anything that you see is yours in college and you bring it into your home and you put it there I mean I still have a mannequin what I collected in college and I've moved that motherfucker to New York back from New York shout out to Paris she's right behind me Paris covered in stickers wearing her nine or seven it she's a little cat head what happened to cat head the cat head is present in my home still but Chelsea refuses to let me put it on the mannequin because it is too freaky she says which is unfair I think we were walking I think to the shitty safe way on mission fucking walk past this tree in a safe way parking lot and peeking out of the tree like a fucking Cheshire cat head was this shattered top half of a porcelain cat so obviously when you're in college you think that is mine now I must apprehend this and take it home yes correct it's now one hit with a Clorox wipe is good to go maybe if you have Clorox wipes well we would we are furniture in the senior year was a trash so we would just get a thing of Clorox wipes wipe the whole thing down and call it a day yeah orange chair rest may read it's all rest of these was a amazing I found that in the daily city apartments Mike and I took Mike and I took a sign for some foot massage place at one point that was I think technically post college but it was in the college apartment still so it felt the same we had a it was in the dumpster outside of a safe way and it was one of those like Star Wars themed like Pepsi ice displays that was shaped like a hard to do like it might be a super market filled with ice and like cold Pepsi's cans in it we took that and then filled it with bottle caps from every beer we drink which is like fucking I can't even tell you how way man yeah it's the track it's but it's filling a piece of trash with more trash it's incredible we are so fucking paracular I think that is that how do we import house games there it's always it's always sometimes the literal game like you just get addicted to playing super smash bros every single day for six hours a day because it came out that year and you just did that whole time smash was a culture in college yeah hero bro yes big time big time big time so you also have to invent games everyone events games we sure fucking did yeah you got a say no drinking games yes yeah Mike and I invented a cube the cube cube that you roll cube cube of course yeah that you roll I still think it's patent pending I still think it's a good we got the name nailed down and the actual function is pretty I think solid as well yeah come secondary characters dude the we I think we've absolutely talked about this type of person in other episodes but just got a shout them out because this is their fucking origin story the person in class that asks one more question as we're all packing up is just the least very quite lit like raises their hand class it's out at 1250 it's 1247 we're gonna get out three minutes early oh I'm the teacher and ask them yourself you little fucking butthead yeah it's unbelievable you know I do need to bring this up here's a here's the deal about college gang don't even consider making a mistake or doing anything embarrassing ever because people don't forget people do not forget let me tell you unfortunately true it's very true there was once a boy and I had a class and it was like software year and he was in the class and then one day he started throwing up on the ground in the middle of the class and just threw up right on himself and on the ground and it was very embarrassing let me tell you every single fucking time I came across that person for the rest of the time that I was in college I was like oh hey you're the guy that threw up on the ground in class and it and that's all he'll ever be to me ever I it is tough in it and the thing about college is that it's this especially we went to a smaller college right like I don't know if you go to like fucking UCLA if this is an issue but you really your paths cross with the same people over and over again oh yeah oh yeah it's interesting I don't even know if that's like goes on the roof somewhere but it's interesting so if you do that thing you throw up in class it's kind of like would you agree that going to college is like the simulation of living in a small town yeah I was gonna say it's it's not on your little jobs and you all go to your thing and you there's a downtown that you all go to when you need to go into town and collect things and you go to the diner and there's the one bar it's kind of it's kind of like living it's unbelievably like Stardew Valley like and I'm not really joking no it is especially with all the farming yeah I mean the farming is classes to me right it's like yeah you got your bullshit you want to do it as fast as possible set up as many things to help you make it through as yes yeah you're looking for all the shortcuts right and the more you go in the more you unlock those shortcuts oh a sprinkler this is great this is gonna cut my workload in half incredible the the everyone else in the town in Stardew Valley is like all your friends we are like hey where's Dave oh you know Dave works Wednesdays from three to six and it's like oh yeah just like fucking start you everyone's on this weird schedule no one's lines up perfectly you live next door to a cave full of mushrooms you live in the cave with all the little mushrooms in the fruits depending on what kind of creators you introduced to the ecosystem earlier as if that was Inglewood uh-huh oh I got another narc though remember oh go not only just like courtesy campus courtesy patrol because they're not even cops so lame oh my god you guys don't even lay enough to be the lamest thing cops so you're somehow worse yeah and what about the dudes on the the lame those on the bikes bro that were rolling around as a state oh my god like telling people to let get off the skateboards if you want to be the fucking lamest narc in the history of narc's chase after someone on a bike and say get off your skateboard it's incredible because I agree with you and I was a mall security guard adjacent to said university so like I caught yelling about skateboarding is so much later than mall security it is 100% see mall security is obviously lame we all know this McGrath is lame and so is his profession but at least with them all you've come on to someone else's turf you right right right right right I don't need someone coming on to my turf and telling me not to shred my skateboard which you guys know I was doing yeah you were big you're a shred for sure that sucks the campus security I think was real police I think no but there was also a campus courtesy patrol oh right right right okay yeah so we had like three layers of my art for give me a fucking break yeah lame oh express okay I have for classes I think like we need to talk about schedule a little bit because a big thing in college you get to make your schedule and that's like a big excitement yeah going to the but I mean yeah if you don't go to a stupid place like we went you get to make your own schedule after us right where we hope to God you can get anything that you need right in your requirements to fucking graduate well and for us the creative writing classes they did this great thing where most of them were started at fucking 6 p.m. or whatever the fuck those classes were those six hours long classes yeah so let me ask you the three hour long once a week class what do we think about that I don't mind it yeah it's it's it's the same as any class I think if it if you like it it's great if it sucks I think the big difference is I can show up even later you know what I mean like my why would I stick it to move is that we would show up to class late all the time because who's what are you gonna tell my mommy and a little movie usually in a lecture hall you're invisible yes a lecture hall yes and if and to me if it's a three hour class I could show up 40 minutes late and be fine basically like in so I do appreciate it so breaks in those classes remember that yes yes go down to get my soul get my little tea and a muffin have myself be a little trinity chicken salad mm-hmm I don't know where to put this but I do feel like getting into a little routine maybe that's an extra curricular I actually love it I think it's a three this is extra curricular very not quite lit getting busted for having beer in your dorms in a freshman year yeah I had a community service I had to go clean the freakin dining hall I'd go down below into the depths of the dining hall that's disgusting it was fucking barferoni I hated it I also had to write a letter to my younger family member explaining my mistake and telling them like the error of my ways I also had to write a letter to myself expressing how disappointed in myself I was and hand that over for someone to be reviewed and decide whether I'd learned my lesson that's sucks dude no wilder I'm mightily sorry that I have let you down in strength of character it was that shit I never had to do that because I'm a good bully and I never did any bad things in the dormy dorm my gosh virgin yeah big time let's go to objectives so we have one thing to get to get a job is like to write that's like fine but yeah I think the number the number one the good the goodest bestest reason to go to college is to like find what you're interested in yeah yeah it's explore your interests experience and explore your interests and if anyone for some reason is like not in college and about to go and is listening to this which I can't imagine is the case you have to figure it out game just go big just go play around see what sounds good you don't have to figure out the rest of your life it's it's a great it's really the only place to do that in it like you can't like if you go off into trade school or the military or you get right into the workforce or whatever it may be that's all fine and good but you're gonna like lock yourself in I kind of assume and based on what I've like heard and experienced through other people is like you lock yourself in a little bit and then maybe you don't end up liking what you become and it becomes harder whereas in college you just spend four years or in our case five years or in my case six years just like throwing shit at the wall and seeing what suits you what makes you feel good what what kind of cool shit with like very little as long as you take care of your biz you get your fucking grades like you just get to do whatever you just fuck around and see what what's what you know we hope you have a better doctor than we did oh gee yeah campus the the health center is gotta be a two because it is free kind of right it's like a small thing it's there and they will ours would just give you like it and basically if you walked up and put your hands out and said please yeah or even there are times when I went with a problem and they said would you like some like it and I said no I would like to fix this and they were like well that's what you do is like it yeah it's just it's I mean not to just sound like a couple of fucking old heads talking about back in my day or whatever but it truly is like you we've talked about this I could not live the life that I lived when I was you know 20 years old or whatever in college now it would be stressful it would destroy my body it would give me mountains of anxiety like it just like all of that but that's you get to do it when you're I can't believe how regularly I was just like I have $11 in my bank account and everything is fine oh yeah and how often I think about now I feel like you're a little bit different but now if somebody invites me in something last minute it's like almost a guaranteed no like if somebody was like no way like if someone's actually right now hey we took it to the Giants game starts in an hour you down I'm like no absolutely not I need a 24 hour on ramp for something like that fucking way college you could ask me while the game the game is in the third inning and I'm just like yes dude let's go let's go right now let's go right now walk what it's an hour walk that's not right obviously a great character is a great teacher yeah like a great teacher and this does not mean teacher who thinks he's cool and thinks he's great talking about like an actual great professor that makes you interested in the class and want to learn more about the thing and enjoy the thing like I had a kind of a sparse amount but when they hit they hit yeah who's a teacher that we had when we in the class we met who taught that class what was it like a poetry class or okay so the thing about the stupid creative writing classes that we took like for a school that really prides itself on like arts and writing that I feel like most of my great writing classes were taught by undergrads or by graduates except there was a one lame oh guy I think we might have had that class together that made us buy his book of poetry I didn't have that but I had a different guy I had an art class with a guy a game that has you either own book oh fucking shut that's so it should be illegal how is it not illegal it's insane it's insane it's insane and this guy oh my god the guy that I did it was like an arts interpretation class and he wrote this book and like had basically half of it was about labyrinths but not like cool not fucking labyrinth like the movie or like a cool like minotaur style damn I was assuming you met labyrinth the movie yeah I bet you were and instead it is about like those little rock labyrinths they have in like Scotland that you they're just like on the ground and you just walk through them to like cleanse yourself of the evil spirits it was like half the book was on that motherfuck charge $90 for you eat my whole bones that's crazy dog that's not acceptable yeah for sure should be against the law obviously I don't know this I guess is like classes buying books is a fucking one that's a scam and a half dude just don't gang I was gonna say how often did you not buy the book because for me a lot is the answer how often did I not buy the book almost I bought him that one I like the first year and then I was like oh I don't like this very much yeah it's hundreds and hundreds of dollars of my moneys on something that I already know I'm not gonna touch just don't do it it's crazy or give it a sec I mean the whole thing the best advice you could get here is just let it breathe go spend a week or two in that class and if you feel like okay I really need this book but like I drop the class drop the fucking class I pick a biology class that I bought the book for and his this guy's lecture is like we would read the book and then the next day he would give a lecture summarizing the book I was like okay well I'll just not I mean I don't need this twice right I'm either gonna return this book or I'm gonna stop coming to class it's one of the other just like go on Amazon get the old version for cheaper like it's not yes I'm sure it's almost exactly the same I'm gonna put adding I'm gonna put supplies on there too because sometimes a teacher fuck around be like you need to buy this clicker or you need like the new edition of the book becomes because it comes with and this is very much dating ourselves but it comes with a CD ROM you need absolutely not there be no CD ROMs from sure they're key one codes now but yeah essentially making like a school supply single use so that I can't buy a huge one is the absolute wackest shit you could do my bong the interesting thing about college is the fact that you are you're back in school like you were in high school but sometimes the people in the room are hello older than you it's like the old people to me it's they're usually sucked but it was kind of a thrill to be like oh yeah I'm serious because I'm in this class and so is this 50 year old that guy has gray hair me and him we're doing the same thing right now I'm basically him yeah so the old yeah old folks on campus are two to me it always like made me feel bad I was like Danny people are old and they really care about their education and they're here to better themselves and I am just counting the second still this bullshit is over I know it's a classic you know a young gun don't know what's good for it's very not quite lit like Wabu did having to take our immediate math class because your SAT math scores are so bad yeah that's that was me too but I did blaze through that English one so with it kind of leveled out yeah okay I want to I want to like blast through some campus stuff because just because I feel like we're neglecting it campus bar with a stupid not every campus has a bar as if they had this little ass pub that had like six seats it felt crazy to be drinking a beer at school yeah agreed yeah yeah the library I I I heard that libraries are cool yeah so that's the library that S of state eventually had was good and it is probably a two or three for the longest time they were building it and we just didn't have a library so we were long as time meaning the time that we attended just a university yes I only got to use it when I went back and got my teaching credential that was like I never saw that damn library yeah it's tough and I assume you're not you're not paying your your what is it alumni fees they can't even use it the thing that we didn't have where this brand new rec center and a library and these motherfuckers are in my goddamn DMS every day asking for the fucking bullshit I didn't get to use yeah I love I love when my college calls me and is like would you pull you can make a donation what did you do with all the money I already gave you chums yes also have you checked in on how my career has gone you should know that I have no money to give thanks to your guidance I have failed okay campus gave us but I'm gonna put libraries at you we haven't even talked about Hogwarts we haven't especially since it's not a college it's sort of a college I don't know about that they aren't they like 12 when they get popping in there that doesn't sound right yeah but they go for seven years I guess it's big high school yeah it just seems like big high school high school and junior high combined anyway but then they get jobs afterwards that's true okay we have very little in classes which I guess makes sense you know and if you're like me consider this my friends if you don't plan to go to higher education after college to further education get your masters if you just want to get a job you don't have to get a's you know I mean you don't it doesn't matter you're not trying to get into college again or if your job is just that much is for sure true you don't matter if you got a it doesn't say that on your college certificate and that was my philosophy for most of college and I just didn't go to class a lot towards the end because why would I well yeah especially again towards my parents had spent so much money on it because I put myself into debt for years over it one might argue those are good reasons see yeah this is the tricky part because you and I are we've as we discussed many a time we are little weenies right so it's I'm gonna push back a little bit because you are talking a big game right now and I think that's fair but I think if you were ever in real danger of failing a class you would have clinched up and and been a good boy and did your your due diligence oh I know that's how I got my C's you know I'm right right right right yeah you because I've fucked off until the moment where I had to grind it out yes but that to me that's my work strategy it's sort of in my general yes absolutely to me the key is you got it you got to get a read for and this is like really for each individual class you got to get a read for how much you can screw off right like I I had to take one math class and I signed up for a class called elementary statistics and I literally signed up for it because as an 18 year old I was like elementary I passed elementary school easy and it was the hardest fucking class of my goddamn life it was so fucking hard I almost failed so that was one where I have to dial in I have to lock in here but then you take these creative writing classes and you're like all right this fucking bullshit manuscript the day before it doesn't matter what are they gonna give me a check minus come on just like it's not everything you know what I mean that's all yeah just graduate baby graduate meet your people do your stuff be a good boy or good girl and yeah that's all I got to freaking say that's it baby that's all you got to do and like watch out for narks watch out for narks play hard have fun out there kid that's the whole thing you know the big doggy yeah you just got to do it's just all about it's an entire four or five six years where you're just doing enough good boy treats good boy chores to get your good boy treats that's it that's the fun of it you meet people you do weird shit and you get to like I mean like this was a little bit of a thing for me I don't know if it's a thing for you you know you're a certain person in high school and maybe people see you a certain way and college is a great time to be like you know what actually yeah I'm not that anymore I don't want to be that anymore so I won't be thank you very much every class is an opportunity for that yeah it's true it's true and if you have somebody that you've crossed passes before you just don't keep the fucking mouth shut because you're doing something different this time around that's it I think that's it I think we did it that's college wasn't particularly funny but look it's that's what you got to learn is that sometimes they're all the people that have already graduated college yeah our friends that listen they've already graduated my students listening you're not in college yet and stop listening it's summertime get me out of your ears California Texas yeah New York these are all places you could go to college or else you could go to college Australia or else you go to college I can't confirm that they have universities in Bulgaria or else there's gonna be one right see there's so many there's American University in Bulgaria oh medical University we got all kinds of shit tight and that's it I mean I can't it's hard to type with these metal pincers on my thing you can't believe you still wearing them well thanks to Adam Faye for the art thanks to bad talk for the
