    Fuck you and fuck your dependency on accommodation.

    Here's what you said:

    And I responded to that by saying Psych majors have an average income that is tracks the national average, and that one of the four top employers for Psych Majors was Bank of America.

    So that information completely contradicts what was obviously a preconceived and prejudicial notion about the value and employability of certain majors.

    Then you walked that shit back by saying it was a "metaphor" (how?) and any major would fit there like History or English, both of which have average incomes at or above the national average, and both of which see Wall Street banks as top employers of people with those degrees.

    So you see how fucking wrong you are about shit? How your inherent bias ends up fucking your argument up? Do you see that? No. Because you're a coddled crybaby who demands accommodation of your bad faith.
    So your argument for a kid who wants to go into the business world is study psychology at Harvard over business at State U. You are free to that opinion. You had a fit and a melt down because you thought I was putting down your major instead of understanding the question of should one major in the field they want to go into. And you choose not to read the article posted which went along with my comments because you melted down and continue to do so. That's a personal issue.

    Riiiight. Yes. A complete investigation of the allegations against Kav was conducted. And Republicans were fine with the results of one short Benghazi investigation, too.

    How did an article on whether elite colleges return the desired result end up a discussion about Kavanaugh?

    This is how things should not work out:

    Our President is a racist, he is a conman, and he is a cheat.

    And at least one of our SCOTUS Judges is a drunken rapist.

    My bad.

    I brought up that a drunken rapist on the SCOTUS came from Yale.

    That completely displaced what I also said about all the very famous people who didn't even HAVE a college degree, much less one from an elite school. People such as Henry Ford, William Shakespeare, Winston Churchill, Thomas Edison, Abraham Lincoln, Albert Einstein, etc. I also pointed out that George Washington Carver DID get a college degree, but not from an elite school. He was accepted at one school, but when he presented himself he was rejected for being black. So he went to another school where he was allowed to enter.

    I'll verify this. To be a moron you have to have an IQ higher than 19 but less than 59. Sadly, you don't qualify. Racist, though? All the way, every day, KKK!

I learned that he has been screwing people over his entire life. I felt he would not make a good President, and it appears I was correct. It is deplorable that he is supportive of white nationalism. It is deplorable that he stiffed so many hard working contractors, some of whom were devastated and forced out of business, their workers going unpaid. It is deplorable that he is such a misogynist and sicko, walking in on the teen age girls dressing room because he owned the pageant and there was nobody to stop him, boasting of how he could take unlimited liberties with women because 'when you're a big star they let you,' and it was deplorable that he has cheated on every wife he has ever had. I was truly saddened to learn that he has been able to fool so many people in this nation that he was able to barely get elected. My opinion is that this is a failure of our system, and I am waiting for it to correct itself either by bringing him to justice or in the ballot box in November next year.

    Let me just guess. You watched 'The Apprentice,' and you have been a fan of his every since. Am I correct? f that's the case, I can understand. People also had a very hard time giving up their adoration for Bill Cosby, too.

    You are still entitled to your opinion this morning You would be*guessing incorrectly, however and I didn't follow the Bill Cosby case.
