“but What If My Friend Gets Offended And Hates Me And Refuses To Speak To Me After I Set A Boundary”

mr darcy to elizabeth: you’re ugly you’re disgusting I’m gonna kill you give me 200 dollars will you marry me

This is a summary of college only using two pictures; expensive as hell.

That’s my Sociology “book”. In fact what it is is a piece of paper with codes written on it to allow me to access an electronic version of a book. I was told by my professor that I could not buy any other paperback version, or use another code, so I was left with no option other than buying a piece of paper for over $200. Best part about all this is my professor wrote the books; there’s something hilariously sadistic about that. So I pretty much doled out $200 for a current edition of an online textbook that is no different than an older, paperback edition of the same book for $5; yeah, I checked. My mistake for listening to my professor.

This is why we download.

Shoutout to @stardustemotions for making the former half of this thread.

Anyway unpopular opinion probably but the school system (and general book snobbery) fucks up by trying to force kids to read "classics" before they have the mental and emotional development to appreciate them.

This post is me telling you to consider revisiting that classic book you read in the 7th grade that you hated because the ability to understand a lot of literature gets unlocked later, for reasons a lot to do with emotional maturity

like i’m ever going to let some absolute godless pervert see the bottom half of my face ever again. in a TARGET, no less
