Im doing aerospace engineering. I spend plenty of time at the library and get pretty good grades. I used to be a real party animal, still am actually but not so much(no more spontaneous week long drinking binges in another country). I think why i do get laid and get decent grades at the same time is that i really enjoy learning new things. Im not even into it to get a *good job* or anything(i used to work in construction for 2 years and was making pretty good money with that). The thing is that many *science nerds* that i study with seem to have no clue about what they are doing or why they are doing it. Most of them are afraid of *disappointing their parents. Some just drift along because doing math and science is the only thing they know. Being a science nerd does not prevent you from having sex. Having that narrow mindset, being under great pressure from your parents, being clueless about world outside of *go to uni-geta good job-become successful* is what actually isolates those people from society.
hahahah, me and my friends spotted that thing on a building a week ago or so! that was so weird! especially since all of us pass by that place at least a few times a week and didnt notice it! NOW that i know what it is im gona act smart and tell everyone.
thats a bold assumption, to think that where i come from(when as a matter of fact i dont really come from anywhere since i dont really have a cultural or national identity) people beat up americans for fun. poor bastard was 11. kids are cruel these days. i mentioned it more as of anecdote of a kind. but you say what, american kids dont beat up other american kids in america?
and ok, say i am arrogant bigot. so since i am arrogant bigot, its ok for americans to be that way as well?
i think i expressed my point quite clearly. i dont like americans for boasting too much how great their country is. for all the wrong reasons. to the point of narcissism. because your government spending all the money on (read awesome)army instead of proper health care is not something to feel proud about. in my opinion.
they werent my friends. i cant see why you made this assumption. i knew that american kid, thats all. as a matter of fact bullying isnt all that common around here. guess they really didnt like him.
i dont care for any of those things americans try to boast about so hard. i care for all the people that get screwed over in process.
and yes, what a cunning insight into my childhood years.
i actually knew an american kid that went to a local school here. he was so out of touch with real world. kids used to beat him up. first for being a douchebag and second for being an american. his mom sent him to international school because of that.
no, seriously, i just DONT WANT TO KNOW. im not going to try to prove anyone here that ive got bigger balls because apparently my country is so much bigger. has the most powerful(?) army. or more impact on global economy(china does, CHINA). im not going to go to other countries and make a fool of myself looking down at everyone there.
excuse me, i really dont want to start a flame war here. what exactly are you trying to prove? that i really DO care about americans? that its so bloody obvious that i cant live without those silly chaps?
i didnt even read half of that article to be honest.
lulz @ know-it-all americans. i seriously dont care whats going on in that part of the world. and why does it ALWAYS have to be a competition when it comes to americans? biggest skyscraper, biggest mall, richest people... what do you win by it? a cookie? americans with their homicide rates, extreme poverty going hand to hand with excessive over consumption, rotten economy and that cocky arrogant attitude. what a great country indeed.
also: all that reflecting and glossy/aqua effect so popular nowadays makes my eyes hurt. its a shame how unoriginal logo designs are nowadays. same goes for interface designs.

good logo is the one you could draw on a wall with a marker.
