“Would you have anal sex for $102 million?”

“D’s get degrees,” is the mantra that so many college students are telling themselves today. There is truth in it, after all. If a university gave out degrees for passing courses with the minimum required grades, then why would students strive for anything higher? This way of thinking is a problem, and it is the immediate byproduct of a single flaw in the higher education system — general education courses, or “gen-eds.”
With the semester coming to an end, the main things on most students’ minds are their final grades. Whether you need to finish, or start, that final paper for a major class, or begin making note cards for some last minute exam review, students are always stressing about how to get the highest Grade Point Average.
Can someone please tell me why society has grown to be so greedy? Why in the hell are we rushing Christmas earlier and earlier every year and so concerned with buying presents?

On Friday, the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals struck down rulings that would have legalized same-sex marriage in Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee. This, especially given the fact that it is the first serious defeat the movement has seen in several years, understandably upsets proponents of same-sex marriage. The Supreme Court’s struck down DOMA, California’s ban on same-sex marriage in 2013 and a series of rulings from the 4th, 7th, 9th and 10th Circuit Courts that similarly legalized same-sex marriage in states under those circuits’ jurisdiction. However, the 6th Circuit’s striking down of same-sex marriage provisions may not, ultimately, be a bad thing. In fact, while it may feel like a major step back, it could very well be two or three steps forward.
There is an issue with religious culture that needs to be addressed. It is in your face and down your throat and, for lack of a better phrase, I am going to refer to it as “bible thumping.”
I appreciate it more than you think. “Thank you for your service.” Every time someone gives their appreciation, the memories come flooding back. The years of service went by so fast, it seems, and I miss it every day.
I am going to clarify something up front: I am not, in any way shape, form or fashion, attempting to claim that my interpretation of the GamerGate scandal is accurate. I believe it is, but I have been very frequently outraged throughout the last several months, and I have some very strong opinions.
