Instead of selling them, can I just have them as MY slaves? I can't even get them to clean their rooms!

That's why you sell them with a "no returns" policy. :-P

The dweeb at the very end of the video. You'll know who I'm talking about when you see him. Kennedy correctly tells him that federal student loans are part of the problem with high tuition rates and he simply shrugs it off and acts like a complete douchebag.

I doubt it, though there are firsts  :P

@ D: and of course, further making things worse is that most students can't pay it back: in an economy that favors older people, younger people can't get a break. I know I can't--no one will hire me, even with my experience. guess it doesn't mean jack if you're 22.

times are tough all around. at least (I'm hoping), you don't have parents suffering from a near total disconnect from reality (e.g. mine).

both think it's a must if I either get a job as a geologist, or go back to university for engineering (something I've long given up on as a lost cause, but they keep bleating on about)--neither of which are possible atm, as no one will hire me (whether I'm qualified or not), and we already spent--wasted--enough money getting me a stupid piece of paper saying I know how to do Geology. keep reading...

and the sick part? I know there is work available in North Dakota that I will definitely be hired for--I have to show up in person though.

easy enough, but I can't get there, because in addition to the general lack of hiring down here, the same parents have gotten in the way of me getting even a low paying job (mostly by throwing a whole bunch of red herrings), cratered my bank account (which they have access to--it was from before I turned 18), further rendering me unable to even make money to leave. And my parent's reaction to the news from ND? "no interview, no help" (yeah, I know). There's barely a day when I wish they'd just get off my case. I'd say more, but one must always be carefully what you wish for....especially publicly.

Well, my dad and stepdad are about as disconnected from reality as you can be...they've passed on.

If it wasn't the fact it was about your parents(or any loved one), that would be a pretty funny line.
