Being addicted to WoW is not a big deal in my opinion. It's your own problem if you aren't getting laid.
Being a programmer and having 1800 posts in a programming forum isn't a big deal in my opinion. It's your own problem if you're not getting laid.
But yes, I read between the lines and hear you loud and clear. You're getting some ass. Congratulations, you are now a man. We all believe you, we really really do.
There's a little bit of a difference there... because I get paid to sit here and program. Not that it really matters, I just think this whole discussion is very humorous.bg wrote:Again, you're just proving my point.The Ninja Space Goat wrote:bg wrote:I love the sensationalist responses about WoW being addicting like crack.

Not that I'm all that bummed about it. I have plenty of other distractions to, uh, distract me.
Doesn't matter whether or not you're getting paid. I didn't say programming was less constructive than video games. My point is that you cannot cast off a stereotype typically associated with programmers and then project that stereotype against a different group of people. Not only is it hypocrital, it's igorant.The Ninja Space Goat wrote:There's a little bit of a difference there... because I get paid to sit here and program.

well what i understand from the whole degree thing is you can prolly get your BA in Computer Science and get a Certificate in the other 2.....from what i discussed with my professors its like the same thing....id definately ask my guidence counsoler about it if i were you...because why settle for 1 if you can get all 3 at the same time...you know 
Yes, so we should enforce them when possible, especially to cast others down and boost our self-esteem, all while putting our insecurities on display. Bonus points if done on an internet forum where there are no consequences for running your mouth.The Ninja Space Goat wrote:stereotypes... generally... are right. Sorry.
