I'm glad you had a better experience than mine on academia. Still wanting that time back.

I would love to have that time and money back.

One of the disadvantages of being of an age where you straddle the line between worlds without internet and with, is that you get to enjoy the 20,000 dollars you spent on learning in the 90s suddenly be available for free in the present.

Seriously, there isn't a single thing I learned in my Near Eastern Classical Archaeology degree that I couldn't just go learn from Wikipedia today.

I wish! I got roped into doing it after the Internet was available.

Teachers halfass pretended to teach and we halfass pretended to learn because we tought that piece of paper at the end would make a difference.

Turns out googling shit instead of being in debt was the way to go all along.
