I guess society really is anti-intellectual...

Reminds me of this one time where I finally met this cute girl who was not only intelligent, but attracted to me for mine, and things were going great at first. But then she met this guy who was not only even more intelligent than me, but was a musician and such a successful artfag that he could make about $600 - $20,000 on a single piece by him, and she ended up hanging around him more and I saw less and less of her until she was gone completely. I was struck so hard by this that I literally ran into my bathroom and kept vomiting for the next half-hour, worst experience of my life.

Everyone should watch this video before posting on /sci/.
It would dramatically reduce all the trolling and butthurt.

I have to sleep now. Gonna be back tomorrow.

I guess America really is anti-science.

Even what he does accomplish may seem little, it's more than any of us here are capable of achieving no matter how hard we try.

God I wanna kill myself now. :(

>mfw I'm taking two Flippin' Burgers Tier and one Low Tier class and had to drop a God Tier to support my pregnant girlfriend

Shame, I just met my first girlfriend recently and was about to lose my virginity. Fucking aye, it's not fair.

>>mfw that is higher than here in the US

And yes, the fact it's FUCKING RUSSIA makes it all the more the slap to the face. Again,

The fact that people like you managed to get into the science community so successfully makes me question the legitimacy of it.
