Petty OfficialsBob de Bilde says: A traffic warden threatened to call the police and have me arrested because "It's illegal to take photos in the street. You might be a paedophile". I was taking a picture of a funny street sign, over which I had no plans to masturbate. Tell us about petty officials talking bollocks.

Americans.I need to get a GED, because apparently qualifications that weren't gained in the USA don't count for shit, and I want to start a university course here. This seems a bit petty in itself.
I just found out the calculator they give you is a TI-30XS, a piece of shit that is about as intuitive to use as MSDOS. I assume the reason they don't use Casio fx-83GT's, which are by far the best simple calculators in the world is because they are Japanese and not American. Petty nationalism that leads the education authorities to pretend the rest of the world doesn't exist to the detriment of students.

Yep, it's considered such a skilled job, that a least a masters is considered a prerequiste to enter the job market.(
