Which means that there's no point to this thread, then?I do see the value in it.
But I was always bad at actually doing the work in the first place, I pratically define Sloth.
Are we to assume you don't give a shit about making your intelligence in any way clear to those people on the internet upon whom you are relying for approval and reassurance of same?
I find it to be incredibly ignorant when people like you for example, devote their time to all these big creative projects like their book series', or their video games, or their cartoons and webcomics and animus, and claim that they have so right of way in the situation, and that makes it okay for them to just not do work in school. That isn't to say that there aren't people who really don't need academics and can get along fine on their creativeness alone, but for a person like you, Chagen, I think forgoing school and learning is the exact opposite of what you need.
Like you said yourself. You talk a big game, but you have nothing to show for it. But we all knew that, didn't we?
Also, here's a prime example of you being uninformed then opening your big mouth - in the 50s, music was, like most professions, extremely male dominated. 1950's gender roles would determine that almost ANY profession other than homemaker would be acceptable for someone adhering to those values. The schism between the generations in terms of gender equality came in the 60s with the hippie movement.
Also, female composers of classical music, while extant works exist, some of them very good and complex on a level rivalling their male contemporaries, are almost entirely overlooked by the current canon of classical music.
GB: I expressed a desire to go to the Manhattan School Of Music, and my dad acted disgusted. I said "probably" because I don't know if he would actually take the steps to stop me. If he didn't, he'd still dissapprove of it anyway.
And he is stuck in 1950's gender roles. He thinks all men should be straight manly workers who never show emotion and all women should be baby-makers who exist solely to take care of the kids and stay in the kitchen. He thinks that women who don't want kids are freaks and sick in the head, no joke.
Saturn: I don't know. I really am actually scared of becoming an adult, there's so many things I have to do, I really just don't know what I want to do at all.
I would just like to point out that there's a reason that people who pothole themselves to/post entries about themselves on Troper Tales about being Brilliant But Lazy are laughed at.
