    I think I made like 10-12 k last year.

    :P yay student life

    10 - 12 K?

    What kind of student life nets you that amount of scratch?

    One with a job?

    Working part time year long (thought I usually get shit hours and go away a lot in the summer so this year might be good) gets me around 10k I think.

    Also I did a work study thing which was basically chilling in a professor's lab doing grunt work and fucking around half the time which paid somewhere from 1-2k :P

    Alright, so you had a non-student part time job thing. Alright.

    I was thinking that you were getting student assistanceships and somehow getting 10 - 12K out of them.
    My friend's wife was going to NC State to get her masters in Genetics. In addition to them paying her tuition they were also giving her an $18k a year stipend.

    Then she got pregnant 3 months into the first semester and dropped out.

    Ugggh, this is exactly the kind of thing I would like to do.

    Did things work out for her?

    I will never make more money than my dad

    ever

    Lets become bounty hunters.

    You distract the guy by hitting on him and making his question is sexuality while I sneak up behind him with a plastic bag which I will pull over his head.
    That's a little more contract killer than it is bounty hunter.

    You only hold the bag on long enough for them to pass out.

    However I can see me and eddy making a wonderful Mr and Mr Smith

    tying money to how you define success is a generally poor idea

    I am happier now making considerably less than I was a year ago because it turns out a healthy environment is a lot more important than cash on the barrelhead

    She got pregnant on purpose. Decided she wanted kids now and would just "go back to it" once they were old enough. 4 years and a second kid later, guess who's not going back to it.

    Face-to-face it would make sense to use first names conversationally if it's not a professional setting.

    Leaving a voicemail or email or something, one would still use the full name as you don't want to assume the other person only knows one person with your first name.

    Why are people getting jealous over podly's friend having a hot girlfriend.

    Unless pictures were posted, did I miss the pictures?

    it's not that she's hot.

    it's that she does gender-transgressive and bdsm-inspired photography

    if i think about "SHIT I WANT TO DO WITH MY LIFE" that's a pretty big chunk of it

    this is my version of envy for all you guys oohing and aahing over mr. vp

    It seems like a weird thing to get hung up on a while after you learned about it.

    huh? he posted it like 10 minutes ago and I AM STILL SEEING PURPLE ENVY

    My dad owns a construction company, and quite a large one at that. me and both my brothers said hell no to working there and taking over, because I have seen how fricking stressful that job is, and I don't want to be a quantity surveyor or architect and then go on to running a building contractors.
