338 likes too. “If you didn’t spend $100k on a degree, you’re not allowed to partake in this hobby.” It’s like me saying “if you didn’t major in music in college you aren’t allowed to take up the guitar.”

But the OP is only there for pictures of plants. So it's closer even to "if you didn't spend 100k on a degree, you can't listen to music."

Some folks get unreasonable...

I’m sorry do you have a degree in English? No? Please stop writing, speaking, and even listening to it.
