and how many careers are there for doing that, and how well do they pay?

it's all about the $ i presume?

it's sort of about the money. i agree that you should pursue something you love, but you don't want to live in a cardboard box and be forced to give handjobs for enough money to buy food

Shut the fuck up "genius"
Call the number

they told me to kill myself. What do?

It would be a better minor for social/government/ science fields I'd imagine. Just so you have something to use it for.

Are you a MASSdebator? as in debating in large groups?

No, he's a master debater.

So, what, you can ask people WHY they would like fries with that?

inb4 i already used it this thread. It's relevant

But, hey, it's a good major if you just want to mentally fuck with people.

lolol look at you, trying to sound smart. Adorable

What about regular sodomy?

People say that i'm quite the master debater.

My speech teacher literally called me a master debater way back in middle school. Fuck, I hated that class.
He was fired 2 years later for sexually harassing a female student. May I remind you, his old ass was teach 8th graders. He is how I picture partnerintroll turning out.

I'm quite the cunning linguist

I think we can both agree that we are both Science's gift to mankind.

That may have been the most ignorant and uninformed comment I have ever read on the internet.....good luck at the philosophy factory btw.

An opinion against mine?!

Allow me to present my butt to you so you may proceed to hurt it.

Philosophy isn't useful, and neither is high school debate.
If you're not at tertiary education for Law, Medicine, Engineering, Science, IT, Teaching Qualifications or Architecture, you're wasting time and money.

What about business? :)
I really yearn for your approval. Please, oh please, justify my major!

Uh... not sure how I forgot about business.

I'm not sure whether Computer Science goes under science or IT

Both, more or less.
And by engineering, I meant all forms of trades, like electricians and mechanics and even plumbers. (I was amazed that you had to take a course to be a plumber.)

Plumbing isn't something the average person can just up and do

I know that now, but it surprised me at the time.

Who says that life is punctuated by success? Let one live his life as he would like to. In my case, I'm pursuing a scholarly career like my main nigga Slavoj Zizek, probably the coolest philosopher ever

Ratatouille is an awesome film.

Live your life however the fuck you want, but tertiary education is expensive as fuck, and with the development of the Internet, the only point to it is the qualifications you get from it. Everything else, you can google.

Half the stuff you learn in tertiary education is practically impossible to google, as far as my graduate friends tell me (Law + Medical). You seriously have to buckle down and read scholarly articles

You obviously don't know how google works.

google is my life as a debater. And i promise you that more than half of the evidence we use to debate with is google. but places like aaaarg and JSTOR are way more useful, for debate and graduate school

I was on the debate team and you made it sound way more intelligent than it really is.

I dont know how debate is where you live, but in Colorado, its a bunch of liberal douchebags who think they are important because they like to organize manilla folders, knit crochet hats and eat only vegatables.

And then there is the "Humor/Drama/Duo" Competitors who know nothing intelligent and take Debate as an extra drama class.

practically what my debate team has turned into, IE competitors. And I don't mind, because it allows for some fine girls to stay on the team

and if you did policy or higher level LD, thats exactly how intelligent kritikal arguments are. But not everyone likes that type of argument

Also I live in florida, so our team has plenty of liberals and conservatives (my crush is a staunch republican) but most of us who actually debate are libertarians. So I'm sorry for your experience with it, I really wish more people debated

It was fun in concept, and i had a few good friends on the team. My partner was a total fuking.....just......gah i hated it

I did CX and Nat Extemp, and while I enjoyed the process I hated most the people I had to work with.

and I imagine you quit. but that's not your fault, dumb bitches aren't at your caliber

I didnt quit. Did it from Sophomore through Senior year. Won NX Regionals Senior year and declined going to nats for CX Senior year.

Awesome job bro. Props. MX and CX seem to be the only thing we're good at our school

Yeah. Our CX team was one of the best in our state, and we had decent LD and NX/FX too. None of us were very good at Humor/Drama though

sadly I wish we were the same. We're the exact opposite however, with anomaly CX and MX programs (Student run of course, because our coach is a douche)

Our coach was stupidly liberal.

My favorite part was after traveling to Colorado Springs to compete, we stopped at subway. Shes a vegatarian and she ordered chicken on her sandwhich.

I asked her "Why are you eating chicken? I thought you were a vegatarian." she said "Chicken isn't meat."

From then on, I felt like an island of rational in a sea of stupidity.

lmfao fucking libs.

Well I'ma junior and I've had three coaches. The rundown goes:
1. Old Fat Bitch that uses "I had cancer once!" as an excuse for everything. Had a heart attack and left. Feel bad because I probably caused it
2. Journalism major fresh out of college who didn't know shit. Ended up being eye candy for the debate nerds who can't get any
3. English major. Extremely fucking elitist lib. Says Pretty Woman is better than Star Wars (that's how you know he's whipped)

Pretty woman > Star wars

to each his own. Personally MLP>Star Wars> Pretty Woman.

/) I agree completely.

thanks for entertaining me. Off to nsfw brony board
