APPROACHES TO UNIVERSITY
My sister:
—“I get A’s. That’s what I do. If I don’t get an A, the professor did something wrong. Because I get A’s.”—
Hysterical. My sister is a Doolittle to her very core. lol. She gets A’s. I am very proud of her.
But she makes me laugh. She practices the opposite of my approach to university:
—“Dear professors: Your opinion matters very little to me, and your grade even less. I pay you to impart knowledge to me, not to certify that you have done so; and especially not to certify that you have imparted what you intended, rather than what I interpreted. This is because I am very suspicious of the quality of your goods and services. In many cases I am quite certain your goods and services are not only unwarrantied, but unwarrantable because they are defective. As such your approval, certification, and warranty are meaningless to me. I do not want your label on my knowledge, because it would suggest my knowledge was likewise defective”—
I told everyone at the time that I was in college that I looked at college as exchange on a good day, and rape on a bad one. I pay money for what they voluntarily impart to me, and if not voluntarily exchanged, then I take what I want wether they wish to impart it or not.
Hence why I don’t work in university.
I don’t seek approval. I seek conquest. I don’t seek to be educated, I seek to learn. I don’t seek to learn the scripture of the Cathedral, I seek to destroy it. The more dead the merrier a party we will have on their graves.
The body count is the score I seek to obtain.
Not a mere glyph of approval on paper.
Cry Havoc.
Punish the wicked.
Leave the world better for having lived in it.
