This is a question Misheard and Misunderstood

Rachelswipe says: My niece - after months of begging - was finally allowed to get a hamster, and her grandfather was utterly horrified to learn that it had been called "Nipples", a pretty good name for a pet if you ask us. Alas, it was only the more mundane "Nibbles" - what have you misheard or misunderstood, with truly hilarious consequences?

it's arcane and tedious ... that's not really the same
to compare it to a genuinely difficult subject is ... odd ... you must have noticed that the maths and science undergrads all had better results in harder subjects ... surely

(my offers for law were at least one grade or two below my offers for maths, for example)

it's neither of those two things
getting clients the result they want is challenging and rewarding, especially when the area is academically complex. unless you've practised in it for at least a few years, so you get to do the good stuff, you'd have no idea.

what we can all agree on is that maths and science people tend to be severely lacking in social skills and attractive women. which was my point. any comparison between law and science was baggysock's and baggysock's alone.

he's your sock now, btw. he lurves you.

You're repeatedly using "science geek" as an insult.
From you, it's like peasants on the side of the road pointing and shouting "haha rich man!" as someone drives past in a bentley.

And I'd like to add that these opinions are completely independent from my Shambo obsession. I've absolutely no idea what the prick does.

it's like me pointing and laughing at a shambling gimp in a white coat blinking through his massive spack glasses and unable to hold a conversation without looking at his shoes.

and who wouldn't laugh at that.

he's self-appointed qotw "moderator". duh.

the fact that you keep telling yourself that we have no social skills or attractive partners
is a pretty direct admission that you know that we're cleverer than you
(, Mon 1 Sep 2014, 16:17, closed)
being cleverer than people (in your own head at least) does seem to be a BIG thing for you
is this what happens when you can't measure success by anything tangible?

people who measure success in physical objects have already failed at life

I suppose it might be if I'd mentioned either of those things more than twice in the decade or so I've been here.

the fact that you think about this several times a day despite me never mentioning it is somewhat revealing

dear god man, you bleat on about it nonstop, it's dreadfully noveau
Never really occurred to me that I should be either proud or ashamed of owning houses.

It's just a consequence of being born with a big brain and earning money. I might as well be proud of my inside leg measurement. You have a very peculiar set of ideas about what it's actually like to be financially successful.

I know I'm bright.

I have a doctorate in something extremely complicated and I invent extremely clever things for large amounts of money for a living.

I don't want to sound mean or owt but I'm so far out of your intellectual league that we may as well be different species.

That's very considerate but I'm rolling in it and already have a house over there.

Not sure why you don't have the money if trite cartoon furry pictures are comparable to renaissance cherubs though. It's almost as if ... you know ... that's a fatuous comparison.

I've accidentally managed to be successful and happy with a smashing family and a lot of money and a fun yet challenging career.

I've never been described as anything less than "terribly handsome" in the real world.

I've always put that down to the fact that I'm terribly handsome. I'm also big and clever. And rich and successful. I can sing too. If I weren't me, I'd probably be riddled with envy. Fortunately, I am.

My scrubber credentials have slumped a little what with being educated and rich and sophisticated and ting.

I'd get my head kicked in for being an oo la la nancy boy.

I like my job.

I do interesting stuff and they pay me lots of money and at least several of my colleagues aren't total prickends.
