Why not?

What @Vampedis saying is right, but you can't get to that next step until you do something about that anger you're harboring. I, for one, don't think you're making excuses to be lazy, i think you're making excuses to fuel the anger that gets you through the day, and some of that anger is justified at least initially. If you feel you're being ostracized, you naturally learn how to cope with abuse by relying on your own devices, and that's leading you down a path of attempting to destroy as much as you can rather than build something for yourself. You mention that there is an Oregonian law that disqualifies violent offenders. What crime were you convicted of that would disqualify you in that way?

He heard Zeni was bringing his gf's to FFA.

I usually hate puns, but these are so awful I'm actually amused.

After he finishes off the bottle of Khalua, of course.

I mean it is seeing as it's coming out now, but it's not that unbelievable that one dude might actually be stupid enough to say something like that out loud.

Is that any way to talk to your pet?

I mean you had more than just a shot at it months ago, but you blew it by taking so damn long.

Where are the FBI Agents?!

Lol. So.... instead of them actually saying on your paycheck that your premium is "taken" out, you just get paid practically nothing and they send you to a guy who's office is behind a bowling alley.

Lol The things drunks do get shit faced.

In theory that's true, but, in reality, having a criminal record does disqualify you from a great deal of jobs, particularly those that pay a living wage. That being said: the point clearly isn't that he's not doing enough to improve himself intellectually, it's that he's holding on to a resentment that stops him from functioning. He dropped out and has a record because he's retaliating against people who he perceives as attacking him unjustly.

I would argue retaining the likes of Packard benefits nobody.

Just imagine what could have been achieved if Packard's school offered straight razors for tickets. No neckbeard for that clean-cut Danny Boy.

What hype?

Yes, we know all about that crap that gets raffled off at your work.

Well, he may..... Nope.

It's likely that Zeni knows anyone who would be important enough to have a security clearance?

How oddly vague...

Nope

No, he didn't.

Likely not, even if she hadn't been engaged. But, that's fine - you've gone through the motions, and now you have a better feel for the courting process. Time to put it to use.

You heard the man...,

He clearly would be happy for you.

You know.... I was going to make a comment about how six months might be enough time for her to give up and end up letting @bnmjy top off the fappachino, but, ultimately, I don't think it would have mattered since you took so long. Now, at least, you can use all the things you learned and start going after some of the other ... fine... valley girls.
