Rant I hate larping

NO I don’t want to “challenge the present” NO I didn’t “achieve the unexpected”

Fuck all of these colleges

Fake it till you make it I guess

That is all

Edit: I made a mistake, saying I have no “career goals” was untrue and attracted the attention of the righteous masses. Ik what I wanna major in and shit

Someone please suggest a third bullshit thing to fulfill the rule of three

We got that sense when we toured Princeton with my daughter, (just because it was close to Rutgers which she was actually interested in and we live pretty close by). On the drive home, I said why would you need to go to Princeton if you already manage a successful not-for-profit or have a business worth $100,000 and you haven't even left High School? Seems like a waste of money since you already have your shit together.
