This has been a recurring problem at many jobs I’ve held. I understand the predicament of the I.T. department. How can they judge my knowledge of a computer? How can they allow different computer setups when disk images are so much simpler? Still, when I see it being an issue for people who are essentially teaching I.T. skills, then I have to wonder if perhaps there is a better way? Anyone have one?

Purchasing a new printer is one of the most defeating feelings in the world. You know no matter how much you spend and whatever gee whiz features it has, the thing will still make you its slave to ink refills. People try to cheat this destiny by refilling their own ink, but you’re still spending way more time on the printer than you want.

I suppose math is to blame for teaching kids bigger numbers are greater than smaller ones. Stupid math, always teaching logical analysis of situations. We should just ban it from the schools. And don’t think I’ve forgot about you science. When was the last time anyone need to light a Bunsen burner in their daily life? I mean, other than meth addicts?
I suppose they are both good for teaching logical reasoning, but I fail to see the value in that.

I like to joke that a random number generator would make the job of a teacher a lot easier. For a large percentage of students it wouldn’t even matter, because they simply don’t care. Still, it feels ever so slightly unethical. Maybe if they were just drawn from a hat?

I suppose people use words they’re not quite sure about in order to sound smart, but I think more often than not you end up in situations like this. I like that Dr. Klownus doesn’t even consider if what he’s saying makes any logical sense. What would deathragging a computer even do?

I don’t personally hate PowerPoint. The truth is, we’ve had so few meaningful interactions that it’s difficult for me to draw any real conclusions about our relationship. Instead, PowerPoint and I exist in a nebulous cloud of undeterminable status. It is both tragic and forgettable, at once.
Now, please bear with me for my 40 slide presentation which will approximately say the same thing.
