This has been a strange year. Some people that pointed out "victim culture" were demonized for it earlier this year. It's strange to see that the idea has caught on. The 'victimhood' culture was only a very small mi

I agree with much of the article. I think social media really damaged my view on Millennials. I learned that when it came to social media people didn’t want discuss their ideas. They don’t want a connection. They want to shout out their bel

Yeh, I know my case is anecdotal. I would have loved it if the situation was reversed. A student shouldn't have to stick up for faculty. For me this wasn't just one class this was many classes and many students. So I think that th

Really, it sounds to me as though the main problem might be that these kids are coddled before they reach university and maybe have unrealistic expectations of themselves. I think they may not have a fair assessment of their own abilities b

I think I understand what he's talking about. I do remember seeing people becoming aggressive while playing games like pong, dig dug and pinball. Come to think of it I've seen the same kind of aggression in other play as well(Bask

Within context the comic in question was titled 'Mr. Robot, My Girlfriend and me'. In this case is this really a stereotype? I mean I watch a lot of geeky TV too and this sort of thing happens to me when I'm watching those sh

Isn't this really about branding yourself on twitter? If you talk more about diversity and gain a following based on that wouldn't your followers pay more attention that? Also we have no idea of how much overlap there is between t

I agree with you. Cheating was and probably still is very huge on my campus. Honor systems don't work and many of my professors didn't care. Very few people talk about what it feels like not to cheat and why students do it. So her

Let's not forget many businesses have a dress code that doesn't allow for shorts and sandals or any summer comfortable clothing for men. The dress code for women is normally conducive to hot weather. Sometimes I feel sorry for upp

Actually I think it's very natural. If not femenism and journalistic ethics it would be communism and witchcraft. This is what people do. We form teams. We are 'us' they are 'them'. What I've noticed from this

You know I really like your ideas here. Once a while ago I told people to leave twitter for the same reasons. It's pretty much a cesspool and doesn't foster worthwhile communication or in depth discussion. I’ve since looked at all

Well let's deconstruct my comment: 1: I don't get why they would bar him from campus. -Unless the councilor thought that he was also a danger to others. 2: If that was there view then I can understand why they would want t

I don't understand that part either. I wonder if the councilor saw a potential to not only harm himself but others and that's why it was included. I can understand the school not wanting to be the next stage for another tragedy si

I recently worked for a company that expected employees to stay well pass 5pm. I was personally working 13 or 14 hours a day and having to occasionally volunteer my time on weekends. My salary in comparison to hours worked went down signifi

Does this really seem like the best way to handle these things? Would the author still praise this as clever if this bot swarm was pointed in the opposite direction? I think the real answer is to leave twitter. If twitter is unsafe then it&

I don't get it. Call them out. I hated dealing with the cheating at my school. I hated that their GPA got them the same considerations as mine. The worst part was the lazy faculty that did nothing. I built a bit of a reputation around
