(complains about school)

buddy: it may help
to think of it as what it really is
A PLAY
most of the teachers aren't that invested
students either
it's a game
an elaborate role playing game
me: "let's pretend we're doing work"?
buddy: you learn sweet tricks along the way, but the assignments are just little challenges to get to the next

Officially the best analogy ever!

Ain't it the truth? :P

your icon: Is batman carrying an eggchild?! I half wonder if it's not edited, because it's that Batman Beyond thing.

[oxboxer]

That is definitely Batman with an eggbaby. There was an episode all about it in the Batman Beyond series, and the image on my icon shows up for a split second. So, totally not edited at all. :P

I found WoW got boring after about... 9 levels? Maybe I never really gave it a chance.

[oxboxer]

It's the same quests over and over again, killing stuff and grinding for levels, and the only way it changes the further you get is that it takes longer to level and the things you have to fight are bigger and more likely to kill you far away from a rez point. Just play Portal and be glad you dodged the WoW bullet.

You know, I changed my mind, this icon is better.
