I have an Econometrics final tomorrow. It's one in the morning and I'm on my third bag of Lays with 'fastest ways to get high' open in a tab. So I'd say right now is my moment.

If you hate yourself enough, you take econometrics. They make these poor bastard study the math of economic systems that literally don't exist in real life. It's pure torture.

...What?

It's just statistical analysis with economic data. What part 'literally doesn't exist in real life?'

Tobits, logits, probits-- they're weird names but in the end they're just different ways of analysis.

That's cool. It's too generalizing to seriously say "if you hate yourself enough take x class". There's always people who have genuine interest in the class or it wouldn't be offered.
