why change?


It's a good car. Light, rwd, and gets 30mpg. I'd like something faster though. :)

P.S. The Sport has Bilsteins and a LSD.

Seriously, what's wrong with a lightweight rwd car?

Mostly because it makes too much noise when I'm trying to study. College is primarily for learning, having fun is secondary.

Agreed.

And some people are just psychopaths and unable to cope with life around them.

You are 26 and living in the dorms??? These people are freshman and sophomore on a saturday night, deal with it. College is so much more than just hitting the books, and I really do feel sorry for anyone who can't realize this. If you need to study and can't there, then go to the library or something (I'm sure there is some place open).

Hey, assnuts, if you have a degree, it would seem that you're OUT of college.. meaning that your argument is both idiotic and of no relevence. But your attempt to brag about havin a gf and a job shouldn't go unnoticed... congrats. i love you.

Nice.

I'm happy that I got a job at a great company.

I'm sort of disgruntled and really really tired of school. I"m past that age and ready to move on in life.

Were you ever at that age? Did you enjoy going to parties and stuff like that?

It would be a shame to let the entire experience pass you by IMO.

On-campus dorms = not for partying. Apartments = party it up. That's the rule. Know it, live it. If you put yourself in the wrong place, too bad.

Frankly, I'm in college to have FUN and that includes the sort of classes I take - the classes which I find most interesting.

Good luck on your projects.

I don't mind having fun at all. I just think people should have the courtesy to do it somewhere other than residence buildings. Just because they have nothing to do, doesn't mean I don't.

Oh, trust me, they have things to do. They just aren't doing them :p

Pssst, he's trying to get under your skin, and succeeding.

Oh, and my FWD minivan will eat your fvcking Miata alive!
