Do you currently have a job?

[Lunar]

No, I'm unemployed... and I'm only a part-time student right now...

I just lost, didn't I?

AT LIFE




ZIIIING

Ouch... my pride.

[MK]

Anybody noticed the theme here?

[Mr. Morden]

Lunar also maximizes his time efficiently by spelling "obviously" with only three letters.

I'm mostly just trying to be trendy, I oft [wow that's a word] use words like obv, hilar, ridic, and awk

That's off the shizzle.

[Nixon in '80]

Anybody noticed the theme here?

I'm noticing a disturbing lack of auto workers... wonder why that could be?

[dead0man]

Because most of us here are smart enough not to be factory workers?

Type of employment has nothing to do with intelligence, deadman.

Not for any specific individual, no, of course not, but on a "generally speaking" basis? you bet there is.

[opebo]

I'm in a hotel room at 4:30 on a Tuesday morning and I'm not a hooker.

Why on earth is an unemployed in a hotel room?  Leisured owner?

[minionofmidas]

Al the Con, eh?

Not entirely true, but truer than we're told to think.

[Sam Spade]

Full-time student, but I always work part-time while being such, so...

If you consider a $50 hotel room in suburban Canada "leisured ownership," yeah sure.

And being the progeny of a college professor and and editor, I'm not sure it would be "ownerdom" in your paradigm.  Maybe "exploiter" or something.  Do you have that in your lexicon?  It has a ring.

Either way I'm pretty sure I'm doing the same thing as you, except with less owner blood money, and with fewer prostitutes.  No prostitutes, I mean.  No prostitutes.

Nice cheap room there.. cheap enough there may be prositutes roaming nearby...

But I didn't mean to imply you were rich, just curious what the hello you're doing in a hotel room, particularly one like that and in the suburbs?

Ah, that depends on what one defines as "intelligence", is it not?

Well, defining it as 'outward signifiers of class background' would be more accurate than some supposed innate difference in brain operation.

Opebo is right (sort of, not completely however.. life is complicated) however. At least here.

[Torie]

I have been throwing sand into the economic gears of our nation unabated for over 30 years now. Ah the friction is the thing!

Well done, well quoted, though fascist.  Given what our society is, it is heroic to menace it.

[Gustaf]

Not entirely clear, but, no, probably not.

[Bono]

Sort of. I'm an undergraduate research assistant.

[Platypus]

Full-time student, with a job.

[riceowl]
