Heh, what's there not to love about Buffy, it's not like other shows where someone pro at medicine or research or an anthropologist or forensic scientist gets the show ruined for them. . . no one is pro at demon and vampire hunting.

Since those cartoons are made to edumacate children without 'liberal bias' or 'gratuitious USA bashing', so that grow up to be True Patriots of Real America, I'm pretty sure a nonzero amount of people are taking them seriously.
Early on the three protagonists meet a friend who formerly worked at Lehman Brothers, but has since been reduced to oral sex for money because of the economy.
While over the top, I thought it was a good counter-argument to the "quit if you hate it" sentiment.
You know what you never see in Whole Foods grocery stores? Fat people.
I just saw a fat guy go shuffling down the street (I have to do all my surfing on the street since my net got cut off) and he was wearing a t-shirt with the midriff cut out. His fat, hairy gut just hanging out.

if your life is completely miserable and the main cause is your job, and you have enough money to either move or live on your own for a while, quit your job and move
im moving to scotland before im 30 because i will be stone cold bored of california by then and i know for a fact i will really love life being in scotland, since i've been there before for 3 weeks and loved every minute of it

Yeah, I saw it. It was sort of a hyperbolic counter-argument, but it does get the point across that it is simply not feasible for a great many people to just up and quit their jobs if they hate it. When people say shit like that it smacks of the sort of privilege that comes with having a specific degree/certification/licensing in a field where you can just pick up and go somewhere else if you hate working at a place.

must be nice, that bolded text you've got there
because a giant swath of the population, especially the sort who are on the lowest social rungs of the employment ladder, do not have that luxury.

This would be the main barrier in your argument. Sometimes it's not possible to build up enough funds to survive outside employment until you can get a better job, especially when the economy is not very job-friendly right now.
Also, spending two or three weeks in a country is quite different to spending months or years. Out of curiosity, what time of the year were you in Scotland?
"Man I will be bored by California before I am 30 but I spent 3 weeks in Scotland so I will totally move there and go through the incredibly complicated British immigration policy, and I'll totally be able to afford doing so"
Best of luck, champ. I sure hope you're in university and studying for your engineering degree and not a high school student who plans on majoring in literature.
Yeah, three weeks somewhere is not enough to be able to tell if you'll love living there. There's no way of telling, really, except actually living there.

On the other hand, Scotland is awesome.
I have pictures of the Isle of Skye in my Living Room. That was fun.

I want to know who actually made this, and kiss him/her/them.
There's a youtube vid of a guy playing the cover of the theme to Game of Thrones. Reminds me of how amazing the opening titles are to that show.
Ahh, here it is:
There is a non-zero part of me which is scared that this will be taken seriously.
have you guys seen this
this is amazing
I also want a jetpack.
I'm digging into that Learn Our History thing and
This
This doesn't look entirely fake so much as unintentionally awful
I'm just looking at it hoping I'm too tired at 4:16am to understand
Now back to the thesising.
Sounds like they are being taken over by editors who want to organize and otherwise professionalize it, for a given value of 'professionalize'...
It's actually pretty great. They taught me that Hitler wasn't that different from Reagan.
One was a crazy guy meddling in Poland and threatened to screw over Europe through war if it wasn't for what happened in Russia
And the other was Hitler heyooooooooooo
people who say "if you hate your job, quit!"
i want to dropkick these people
Have you watched Horrible Bosses, Pony? If not...

They've always hated them. Just been running off a 'siphon' approach instead of garbage. Guess that's changed, which I approve of.
Edit: this isn't the first time either. Similar thing happened to their fetish/nightmare fuel pages.

Which, you know
doesn't apply to most people
at all

No, it's probably going to be alright. There was just a shot of pain up my arm when it popped, folowed by numbness.
My body is falling apart...but I'm bitching to the choir there, huh?
If you got a shot of pain followed by numbness there's a very high chance what you did was tweaked a nerve, probably pinched it a little
which is no big deal and is usually temporary
On the other hand, Scotland is awesome.
Yeah that's what I was figuring. I should be in my bed, not sitting in my car right now.
Scotland *is* pretty awesome.

immigration officials generally frown on that
if you aren't a refugee or a person with some kind of trade/useful degree/doctorate/in-demand certification or training
or the country has a large unskilled labor market
gooooood luck champ
