The final exam question for my metaphysics class was -

Could Mic Jagger live in Ludwig Wittgenstein’s world?



It wasn’t an intro course, though.

Gets to the exam and its one question "Why?"


I would find it very difficult to answer without mentioning Bud Dry.

That is honestly sad more than anything. Pursuing something you love only to end up in that position.

No shame in somebody working for a living, even if it's flipping burgers.

I don’t work in the field of my degree, but I have a pretty good job that I like and pays well because I applied for jobs that simply just required a degree in general and worked my way up from there.

If this person can’t parlay having any kind of advanced degree into a better job than Wendys, than his degree isn’t worth the ink it’s printed with.

I know a guy who has a law degree from Tulane that is a bar tender. He has got to be getting close to 50 now.

If I've learned anything from The Good Place, it's that everybody hates moral philosophers.

A normal person who thinks rationally would apply to the position at ULL if they qualified.
Then if they got the position would then move.

$450k in debt and still making bad decisions.
