It’s funny, I went to college and got my degree in mechanical engineering. I’m glad I went and it’s definitely made my career easier. However, as a power plant operator, in my state a degree isn’t needed, just licensing.

      If he ever gloats about having a degree, I’ve had success with tossing back “in order for me to feel insulted, I would have to value your opinion”

      Its made two relatives block me and my mother in law call several relatives to cry and moan about how evil and manipulative I am because when she responded with multiple gigantic run-on paragraph/sentences in a row, I hit her with “lol. I ain’t gonna read all that”

      People who take pleasure in how much better they believe their lives or decisions are typically can’t stand it when someone else doesn’t fucking care
