Psychology is studying human behaviour. If you understand human behaviour then you can get a job anywhere.

How advertisers know what sticks and what people are attracted to in products
How stock brokers can predict where the market or a share price will go
How retail assistants understand how and when to force/team sell and when to step back and give room for thought

Mathematics.

"If you go to a science cocktail party and someone talks about Shakespeare, no one's going to say, "Oh, I was never good at Shakespeare. I was terrible at nouns and verbs." No. You'll never hear that. But you can go to a liberal arts or artists parties, and someone starts talking about math and says, "Oh, I was never good at math. I hated math," and they will all chuckle, and they all agree, and they'll all sip the next sip of Champagne and go on talking about the art. And that's somehow okay. No, that's not okay." - Neil deGrasse Tyson

Visualartsfag here.

I loved math in highschool though I was not particulary good at it. I hated chemistry though, which doesn't mean I giggle at this fact or don't respect the work of a chemist. In fact, I admire it.

I find it hard to understand how can people bash other areas like that. One thing is interest and what we do with our times. I don't have time to study math, I don't even remember much of what I learned in highschool, so I chose an area, a slice of life that pleased me most. But another thing is to dismiss other fields like there was something wrong in doing what you are not doing.

Whatever happened to the inconditional love for science and art? Same goes for sports and all other activities. Even if it's not part of my life I can easily see the beauty of all it.

Idk what that has to do with anything, but I think miss red needed a reality check. In a field where a bachelor's degree is WORTHLESS and graduate study is becoming a requirement for any consideration of work, I think she has been misinformed on the versatility of jobs that her degree can get. Versatility is not as important as availability though...

Well no, that's not what I feel, it's just what a lot of employers in small-time jobs are like. I personally favour experience over a degree, but it's very easily to bullshit an employer into thinking you are worth a lot and have proof for it.

I'm not for a second naive enough to think I can get a high-earning job straight away.
I agree with degrees being a requirement these days.

Really, any phrase you regard as stupid does not encompass an individual.

No you're arrogant and condescending to stupid posts. For all you know the people you talk down to could be smart as hell, they just happen to be talking on a subject they're not very well versed on, which makes for uninformed and often ignorant posts.

And just because some posts are ignorant or uniformed doesn't mean you have to talk down to them. Many of the things you say are correct and well informed, it's just the way you go about making your points, and the manner in which you respond to other posts that makes you a douchebag.

For all I know you could be trolling and this is exactly what you want to be doing.

Since when is you asking me to do something you want a challenge? I don't want to do anything you ask me, and telling you I could if I wanted to isn't an argument, it's an assertion you're free to take however want. Again, I'm not here to fulfill your requests or cater to your needs, deal with it.

You think you did because you used the word challenge, but it's not a challenge, not for me at least, maybe it is for you. I don't see it as a challenge because I don't have any reason to take it as challenging or serious in any way, it's just a request for me.

Ok. You can hardly make an accurate judgement though if that's all you're given. One post is not indicative of a person's intellect or lack thereof.

Let me name a few: Behemoth, capsguy, tybrax, brownbear, onionring, trumancapote, tom harper and fab uh i guess, SLAF, stradlater (even if he tries much too hard, bless his soul), and so on. You might be a little jaded from having to read the posts of poseurs and dimwits (jamesbond, scout, caracalla, wildweasal, etc) but I assure you that on the whole we have some great personalities with very interesting backgrounds and opinions on literature and philosophy. Granted, none of them are on my level of expertise, but that would be much too demanding, and it's healthy to have a solid, varied hierachy in any community to promote a fruitful difference of opinion.

It doesn't matter what you think, a challenge is still a challenge. I am asking you to prove yourself. Whether or not you choose to is another issue.

You're claiming authority, and objecting to my request by somehow maintaining you're better than it despite the fact that you never actually post anything of merit. You show up, catastrophically misread something, latch on to a single term whose definition you have greatly mangled through some weird, solipsistic, sophomoric filter of your own creation, and completely derail whatever discussion you forcibly insert yourself into, invariably pigeonholing it into a circular finger-pointing, greentext exercise in semiotics.

You know nothing and say nothing of worth.

No, you're asking me to fulfill some set of conditions you decide upon. Why would I do anything you ask me when, aside from everything else, you've been rude and indignant to me? You seriously think you've got any privilege or right to ask some complete stranger you've never even met to jump through hoops for your pleasure?

Anything you say only has value to a minority of people on slow moving 'literature' board on a shitty weeabo image posting site. Considering the ammount of time you spend here one can only assume that you have little standing in the real world and, thus, anything you say is not considered of value by real-life people.

Its a fair to assume that someone who spends so much time and energy maintianing their position on a site like /lit/ is unable to form satisfactory relationships in the real world. relationships where people value you as a person and the ideas you spout.

All I'm saying is that no balanced person would spend as much time posturing on sites like /lit/ as you do. You can take it as offensive if you wish..I don't care. Obviously you're not here 24/7 but you are here far more than can be considered healthy. The only possible explanation for this is that you're either bed-ridden due to some sort of unfortunate accident/disability or you find interacting with real-life people deeply unsatisfactory.
I don't see how thats an unfair or inaccurate observation.

the fact that you've maintined this online persona for so long and with such intensity, and the fact that you're older than the average /lit/ 'contributer' (and thus havent been able to grow out of it, so to speak) is a little bit worrying

I know I didn't keep doing maths mainly because any time I asked a question I'd get scoffed at by the other people or a roundabout answer from the teacher because I wasn't part of the super secret we understand maths club.
