I just know spanish and english, but I'm generally pretty quick with languages.
my interests are in latin america and southeast asia for the most part.
Being quick to learn is more important than the languages you know going in in a lot of cases. If you're working in an isolated region, the dominate language with the people groups you're working with might only be known by the people groups you're working with.
Even if you're not working with an obscure language, it helps to be able to learn the proper dialect. Castilian won't do you much good in Oaxaca.
Are you looking at humanitarian aid work?

I mean, I would probably be vegetarian if I didn't love beef and chicken and turkey so much, but I'll be damned if someone is gonna convince me to stop eating ice cream.

Projeck, if I ever meet you I will give you a beer.
Also I will slap you in the face with a large branch every time you say no.
you got something against vegetarians
i'll take you any day, skipper
I think vegans are retarded.
I agree
hi5
Are you a vegetarian, projeck? For health reasons?
Did you ever find out anything conclusive about the celiac's thing?
No. Currently we're going at it as if it were crohn's, and I'm taking biweekly self-given injections in order to try and treat both that and my arthritis. Basically we're approaching this with a 'if the treatment works, then we'll diagnose you'
Munkus Beaver on
Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.

my sister went vegan a few years back
she was vegetarian back in elementary school
went full-blown vegan in middle school
every so often she'll admit to missing things like real pizza and bacon
but the fact that she can do that shit for so long astounds me

The only real reason to be a vegetarian, barring like... meat allergy or something, is if you don't agree with the practices of factory farms. The waste that they create is a hell of a pollution problem, and they're the kind of farms with the giant rows of chickens layin' eggs till they die.
However, this argument also means you don't need to give up meat because there are family farms and free-range animals whose products you can consume without guilt.
I think vegetarianism is dumb, just buy your food at a co-op.
I don't even know what I want to major in any more
I don't want to do anything with math and I don't want to do anything with "hard" sciences
why are those the largest-grossing careers
you could be a celebrity or a business major
those make a lot of money
I would be down to be a celebrity
And I honestly feel like I have the talent and drive to be a film director
or, seeing the quality of most mainstream actors, an academy-award winning actor
Seriously, I could absolutely do what Owen Wilson does.
Annnnyway, considering that that is a profession that does not really hinge on a degree, I just need to, in four years, decide whether I want to move to NY or LA and watch money that I could comfortably live on for the better part of my life disappear within 10 years, or go to grad school and become a doctor

yeah, I avoided picking up a spanish accent when I was studying there last semester, but it still did me a world of good (man spanish speakers in andalucia have some thick accents)
and yes, but hopefully aid in the sense of the "teach a man to fish" way, not the patron-client relationship way

Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
No. Currently we're going at it as if it were crohn's, and I'm taking biweekly self-given injections in order to try and treat both that and my arthritis. Basically we're approaching this with a 'if the treatment works, then we'll diagnose you'
You really are 13, aren't you?
goddamn kids
futurama then.
Because it's food.
she was just in our hearts, only visible to those who believed
You aren't going to believe what happened to me today- I found some beef.
You can't find just find beef. Beef is not naturally occurring.
the other day she decided to become a vegan and I am seriously concerned
she just doesn't put any thought into her diet other than "animals = bad"
she doesn't seem to grasp that when you give up shit like meat you still need to make up the nutrients somehow
What exactly is wrong with it? What is there to justify?
What?
and yes, i really am 13
Sorry, I can't hear you with all that faggoty and gay lettuce in your mouth.
You should take the faggoty lettuce out of your mouth.
Because all you eat is lettuce
Because you are vegetarian
Do you see?
hahahaha
I can!
awm nom nom nom

Thread summary: Projeck lines himself as the new Teefs.
He's just so pretentiously wrong about everything though.
Uh, without any spiritual attachment or justification, then there shouldn't be any problem with it.
However, this argument also means you don't need to give up meat because there are family farms and free-range animals whose products you can consume without guilt.

if cows didn't want us to eat them, they shouldn't taste so god damned delicious

move your business to michigan
honestly haven't heard much by them, but what I have heard I liked
Dude, it's okay
I even asked this guy. I said, "Is this your beef?"
And he was all, "No."
I would be down to be a celebrity

I dunno what he's on about, corpses are delicious.
I'm assuming I get the hi5 right away.
Unless this is one of those silly tricks.
Like what color is the 2nd floor on the one story house
Hard to Explain is on Is This It though
Hard to Explain is one of their best songs.
Also New York City Cops.
But that last one, yeah, bleargh

Jesus Potates, it's just for the summer, so go take the internship and live with a friend for three months or something.
