Have a look at this fuckin thread.

Look at my posts - all apart from the last one have not been arsey or anything to that degree.

Infact, I made this post with intentions of getting something out in the open rather than leaving it inside.

Then - oh look - Bugzy gets abused! Bugzy makes a comment about wanting to make a good future life! Let's tell Bugzy his gf is DEFINITELY going to cheat on him.

So no Chronic. I have done sweet fuck all wrong in this thread & I have NOT come across as arsey until people pissed me off (which took ~130 replies - go me!).

Anyway - that's my annual trip to this forum done. I'm off to get straight A's in my A-Levels and hopefully find some truly challenging work at University! :)

You lead a sad sad sad life, whatever happened to enjoying the teen years?... i know i aint fussed bout studying and shit, more bout getting drunk, stoned and shagging as many girls as poss.

Your posts may not have been arsey. But they definitely had a very strange connotation. You call it optimistic, we call it naive.
You´re talking about your future plans and what you will have achieved in a couple of years from now and how your private life will look like and while this is all nice and dandy, it´s nothing more than wishful thinking.
Of course, relations *can* last for a lifetime (btw.. those stories in the newspapers about old couples, did you ever ask yourself WHY they´re in the newspapers? If you they would write an article about every break-up... :D). And yes, many of us have though the same back in the days when we had our first love... "yes, this is gonna last forever". Turned out, that we were wrong and that relations are a complicated and hurtful thing.
Same with jobs. You may have A grades and degrees all you want. That alone doesn´t give you a job, because people out there in the (sorry to stress this word again) real world sometimes focus on other things than just degrees and grades. That´s what (some? most? dunno..) people here want to tell you, but you seem to stubborn and snotty to take this advice. You call us bitter. If that´s your opinion, ok. But in fact, it´s not bitter. People just went through their first thunderstorms and they´re now prepared to take their umbrella with them whenever they go outside. :)

If you weren't such a self-obsessed pretentious arrogant cock in the first place then people wouldn't jump on your back all the time

you didnt in this thread but have in many others (sorry i wasnt clear on that). i wasnt being aggressive or pointing our bitterness or pessimism. just pointing out that its better he learns for himself than hes told by people. love isnt something you can just get explained and told, and then its all fine you need to experience it

I've never said teens don't matter or anything even remotely towards that direction, stop pulling "you said"s out your arse...

And i'm not trying to say "what love is" or in any that sort of direction either.

Bugz, and anyone else reading and complaining bitterness or some other crap, try to get this into your heads:

I'm NOT saying love isn't possible.
I'm NOT aying love can't stay for decades.
I'm SAYING, love isn't enough for a relationship. And that is a problem with teens.

Gees...especialyl Bugz, pulling out some "ololo old couple" example when missing the point by a mile.

Bugz, the problem is, you come across as thinking you are better than everyone else. I know you better than probably 99% of the people here and I know you are a top lad, who would do anything for anyone, I just dont understand why your posts come across as being so different to the person you actually are.

just get it up her arse before you goto whatever poncey uni you are going to, fuck sake, get drunk get a massive overdraft and get a degree, shag lots of girls


then , after that if she still takes it up the arse and isnt married or has t3486383 kids THEN marry her

terminator children? the prophecy is true!!!!! RUN!

Bugz, i dont think you learnt any lesson today to be fair. You live a different lifestyle to me, always doing the bare minimum i needed to at school and then enjoying the rest of my time. Prefects at my school were never a very big deal, got given jobs like lunch duties and library supervisors and school was happy enough to hand the title out to anyone who sent in a letter and hadnt been in big shit before. And before you jump on what school i went to, was a well respected grammar school in Buckinghamshire. So i dont think unis put that much weighting on being a prefect due to every school having such a different view on them.

Would have loved for you to meet my head of sixth form. Very down to earth guy who believed education was important but also put a lot of weight onto living life and actual life experience. Communicating with people is one of the most important things in life, and also one of the easiest and hardest things to do.

If you act irl like you do on these forums, its no wonder you arent that popular. One of the most arrogant, narrow minded people ive ever 'met'. Obviously your life won't pan out exactly as other peoples have, however we all live under the same sky, where certain traits are set in stone.

And believe me, after your degree, a-levels mean fuck all. You can teach a chimp to get 100% in A-levels, all it is is regurgitating facts. And with enough work they are easy. But half of their point is to let a teen work out their social cohesion and who they are. Its a shame you dont seem to be able to see past your own views and scoff at others advise, whoever you think they are behind the screen. And until you learn this you really wont go far in life.

About being jumped on for doing nothing in this thread, its because some of the things you've said in other threads have been ridiculous. And once you have a reputation its extremely hard to change. So yea, people get on your back, but its by your own doing at the end of the day.

I think you should start a diary, write down your every opinion. And i sincerely hope you go back to it in 20 years time and are quite shocked by some of your views about life.

Anyway, enough of being serious. Hope you actually listen for once...

It's about learning how to communicate with the people around you..
Something you may learn to do some day.

You claim that you didn't get your thing because you wern't popular enough.. At some point soon you'll probably realise that being likeable is actually far more important and will get you far further in life than some grades ever will. Try spending less time adding up X/3^482 and more time actually learning how to interact with people and you'll do much better.

Congratulations on becoming the hero of chav's everywhere. :drink:
And people wonder why it's not safe to go out at night without getting mugged by gangs of people with exactly this attitude unfortunately.

Unless you go into very specific acedemic jobs then pretty much after your first year of work, your degree also means f**k all. Experience and performing well at a job will always beat someone who got good marks in a test sometime in the past.

All the people trying to lecture him on what university will or wont be, just please be quiet. University is probabaly the time in your life when you are most free from obligations and can do what you want. So therefore you can make WHATEVER the fuck you want with that time. You can have a lot of sex with randoms, you can get a gf and have a lot more better sex, you can maintain a long distance relationship with a previous gf and have infrequent better sex, you can study or you can do what probably the majority of the people on this forum have done who went to uni in the last 6 years: Play DAoC.

Bugz you come across as an eloquent but very pretentious and potentially annoying person. If you want to go to Oxbridge, thats cool, but their selection process is based heavily on interview (i.e once they've decided they like you they might offer you a place based on 2 E's), so if you come across as a pain in the arse they wont take you. Also i wouldnt waste your time arguing with people on FH cos it sounds like your going to have a lot of modules to take this June if you are retaking C2, M1 and doing further maths (which, kudos for taking, but when i applied Oxbridge didnt accept it as a separate subject, or atleast they didnt in medicine).

Unless you go to some job like game design, graphic design, where you get in only by the things you've done "for fun", then everything means f*ck all :D

but what you get in your degree matters to get a job. I meant what you get in a-levels means fuck all as long as you do well at uni. Rarely employers will care how well you did in your teens and would rather you had some real life experience than 9 A's. But your points true too, after your first job your reference from them and what you achieved is probably more important than what you got at uni.

correct no employer gives a shit about A levels. UNLESS, its for a job like assistant manager at a shop where you dont need a degree.

go look at uni graduate job offers, none of them ask for "3 A-C at A level". no one gives a shit about a-level, a degree is higher than any a-level, like a PhD is higher than a masters, professor higher than a PhD etc.

most degrees dont even matter these days, when we have people studying bollocks like fashion. FASHION FFS, where is a degree in fashion going to get you?!

yes because there is those typesof jobs being advertised everywhere these days.

But if one wants to go into fashion industry, a degree in fashion would help don't you think?

What's the difference in a degree in metallurgy and fashion? Personal taste or preference.

there is no difference, both are completely useless in todays world.

if you want to make metals for a factory, making the right mixtures up, get a chemistry degree.

No, they are not.

Metallurgy includes a lot more, like, hell, making metal things. Like art for an extreme example.

And fashion, hell, fashion is a paycheck if nothing else and even if some think that "fashion is crap", doesn't mean the rest 90% of the world do.

then surely youd just do another useless degree like material design and choose metal work as an option?

Oh yeah, i forgot, everything is useless unless almighty tris- does it...

The art thing was an extreme example, like said, metallurgy includes alot more, but not gonna list them all here now.

You get the f*cking point, stop nitpicking.

EDIT: Apologies if that was a bit rude, just seemed a bit "nitpicky" responses to everything said.

well if having muscles and strength is not needed and useless, so is having a degree in fashion, or sculpture, or surfing.

fact is how many jobs do you see needing people like this? and unless youre extremely talented no one will buy what you make. if you were that tallented in making and designing youd be doing it instead of getting a degree. you only need talent in these areas, not specific knowledge of anything important.

Different thing.

Muscles are useless due to society being so automated and heavy lifting, etc, being only needed in certain areas.(as i said).

Degree i fashion, sculpture, or surfing, gets you a job in respected fields of work more easily, so a degree is sometimes a "must". Why you need a degree for a job, well, that's rather another topic.

Talent isn't always enough, sometimes it's good to know the fine points, the things you don't know etc from any field.

tbh tris is right. A degree in fashion is bullshit. you wanna get into the fashion industry, you apply for one of the major fashion apprenticeships or you get yourself into London College of Fashion, which is where my friend is going. A whole college dedicated to fashion, not a uni which provides a half assed course in it...

so then in that case muscles are not useless, because you can be a professional body builder and make a living out of it.

a career which is on the same level as being a qualified artist surely?

Right, so those people who can't get into precious london college of fashion, just have to go f*ck themselves? Tough luck b*tch, go clean toilets.

Ever heard of giving someone a chance, even if they don't have THAT much skill...

And i think tris- is saying that ANY education in metallurgy, fashion, and gods know what, is useless.

Like. I. Said. Muscles are useless UNLESS you need them for work or some such.

As in, society doesn't NEED you to be bulky and musclebound like they did back in the day.

I know what your trying to say but I think your fighting on the wrong subject here.

Industries like fashion have very very few spaces at the top and lots and lots of people that would like them.. Pretty much you either have a natural talent for it and therefore will probably get into the ponsey fashion college or you might as well give up.
A degree in fashion might give you a better chance at getting one of the 5 jobs on offer once you leave uni than someone without one, but since your competing with the other 4 thousand people who did the degree then for 3,995 of them, yes it's pretty much useless. The stuff they learnt during the course and the experiences you get at university might help them in their actual career, but the bit of paper with the number on it, not so much if that's all they have.

Custom cars/choppers, custom metalwork on houses and such, there's plenty of metallurgy work to be done.

Ofcourse we don't NEED it, and there's no difference as such, never claimed there was, but that's not what i'm saying against here. I'm saying against your claim that they are useless.
