Or learning anything.

Let's look at home ec, for instance.  The keyword in Home Economics is, ECONOMICS!  How to balance a checkbook, how to read your utility meters and predict your bills, How to prioritize expenditures, etc.  Was the class ACTUALLY about ANY of that?  It was not.  It was a second arts and crafts class.  Break down a lesson on how to make a sweat shirt out of two yards of straight fabric.  By the time you purchase the materials, clutter your house with a sewing machine, and spend hours every day to make the shitty shirt, you would have spent enough time and money for ten shirts of much better quality.  So, just some useless shit.  A GED disregards such things and focuses on what actually needs to be known.

Thank you for proving my point. You're virtually allergic to thought.

The first page had me laughing up a storm, and by the third page I was laughing to the point of fucking tears. I love ya'll. :D

 

As for the Christmas lights, I knew a guy who had them up in his garage, but it was more of a hangout than a garage anyway. But I think it's odd decor for a bedroom. I think it's more odd that the lady seems to have a picture of herself posted on the wall (assuming that it IS actually herself).
