I hate headphones that have 15 billion mile long cables 'cause I always fucking run them over with the chair at my PC. They also suck when I'm listening to music laying down.

Aside from the terrible product name,...I picked up one of these and really like it.

I seem to have tweaked my right elbow today while either getting into or out of my car
Looks like the free time I had set aside for guitar will be wasted

I haven't taken an english class in forever and tomorrow I have to turn in a rough draft where I've analyzed one aspect of Moore's Utopia. And I've forgotten what the fuck a rough draft is. Do I just not proofread before turning it in? Do I write it, but not quite all of it? What?

it's kinda like a first attempt. just make a not revised paper that hits all your ideas

Thanks, that's kinda what I figured, except I won't do any editing for the pronoun confusion and tense problems I usually have when writing. I haven't revised a paper since high-school, I'm used to editing as I go and turning it in after I've read it out loud to make sure it flows right.

i've always hated making rough drafts. I think I'd rather just knock it out in one shot, because to be honest I never even make a ton of corrections anyway. I just absolutely despise using MLA format to cite sources. Fucking people are so ridiculous when it comes to plagiarism

What springs to mind when someone says plagiarism.

I'm pretty sure MLA is a scam. Why do they have to change it every year or two? Just so they can sell more guides, I tells ya.

"MLA prevents plagiarism" is to "DRM prevents people from downloading torrents"
It's so stupid and out of date in a world with the Internet. People being so afraid of the internet and making it so hard to get the citations right are half the problem with writing papers now. I once had to tell a teacher "No, I can't just go to the college library and do my research entirely in books, their books are out of date and I'm writing about the evidence that overthrew those theories that happened LAST YEAR." But of course then her solution was that I could only go use the digitally archived academic journals accessible only on the college library computers, which usually only gave me an abstract unless I wanted to pay $60-80 per paper. SO LAME.
So glad I'm not in college anymore. All of the knowledge I need for my current career is found in a dozen $40 technical books I've read and online in documentation or blogs. I don't even use my computer science degree at all and I'm a programmer.
