my LAS grudge Monday October 11

i'm glad i am an LAS student, for sure. engineering would have been neat, i guess, to finish out, but then i wouldn't be who i am now, and i feel like i'm not hiding who i am "really" anymore -- which i was doing as an engineer -- always playing along like i cared as much as the kids who really did care.

but.

if i come across the opener "going along with what person x says," in a class discussion or on an online post one more time, i am going to pull all of my hair out. quite simply, if you're responding to a person's statement and/or post, you do not need a connective to indicate what you're talking about. it is obvious in its nature of reply. if you are trying to say that you agree, state your point. don't waste our time or our intelligence, we know that you agree based on what you've said.

and if you disagree, the worst thing is, "going along with what person x said, i think i disagree". not only is it self-contradictory, it's a waste of your breath and my time. just say: "i think i disagree".

mind you, this is coming from someone who talks a lot and rambles. but when i speak in class, i try to make it coherent and concise. rant off, thank you.
