    How... how did people escape college before learning about Tulip Mania? This was common knowledge among my cohort of friends (some of whom haven't graduated high school!) by, like, 10th grade.

    Maybe this is why there are so many people of all ages jumping on board the Bitcoin bubble. They don't remember the Housing bubble or the dotcom bubble or Beanie Babies or fucking Tulips... Those who don't learn history are doomed to repeat it, and all that.
    Education in the USA is pretty scattered. A lot of it is focused on trying to promote the USA and how awesome it is.
    I grew up in bumblefuck Indiana! Then again, learning about how "hur hur them furriners done fucked up with Tulips" is somewhat of a "Go Team USA" thing.

    They remember those more recent bubbles, they just fall into the old "but this time it will be different" trap

    I just watched my professor struggle with a smart board for a while. He kept mispressing the scroll wheel and accidentally clicking in the task bar or right clicking. He ends up accidentally opening a new tab with the source from the syllabus page. And he’s looking at it like he broke the computer.

    The Dating Rules/Advice thing is tearing me apart, Lisa

    Like, I know- be polite, don't be a gropist, accept rejection like a bro.

    But, like... what if I find a woman attractive and would like to act on that, but would also not like to fuck up the possibilities of being bros instead?

    Like, hey this lady is nice and funny and would be fun to bro with, either by social happenstance or intentionally. But I would also maybe like to see her butt. I worry that by offering drink/asking out/whatever, I'd be fucking with the dynamic. If she's not interested, she's instantly going to to see me as Guy Who Wants to See Butt, and it'll fuck up the trust dynamic for potential broship.

    Also he apparently just got a tattoo and I'm so curious

    if we talked about it and it's on his arm it wouldn't be rude to ask to see it, would it? I didn't but I'm so curious...he has very non-traditional style for a defense contractor (multiple piercings, too)
