The rather pathetic need and desire to try and break everyone else's pets during this particular week is always rather predictable. Imagine if you all put the effort and imagination that you put into trying to hurt each other, into more productive means, just how successful you can all be. Sad, truly and pathetically sad.

It made me smart enough to know that taking home a paycheck was more important than proving how free I was.

You're very used to people answering your questions, aren't you Sir? It's a very direct ~~brusque~~ way of requesting information.

I am in the top ten percent of my class and I have enough skills at swimming to be have been named Captain of my team. Those are things I work hard at and can be proud of.

Just like how the majority of Inferiores have decided taking home a diploma is more important than proving how free they are.

I am used to having people answer the questions I ask, and most know I have no tolerance for those who try to dance around an issue without answering because they won't like what they say.

So, you're superior to 90% in your field and nearly everyone else on your swim team. Seems there are a lot of people inferior to you.

~~Like they have a choice~~ Pearson doesn't have a set of revolving doors; once you're in you're there to stay.

How interesting.

I've been lucky and I work hard. I don't have a Superiority complex ~~or a stick up my ass because daddy bought me too many toys as a kid~~

With all due respect Sir, I don't believe it would be fortuitous to continue this vein of conversation.

And yet, knowing the price, how many stay? How many return for a Master's or a Doctorate degree? You're focusing on a single detail rather than the whole thing.

Now you're getting defensive. I never said anything about a superiority complex. I just said, using your own words, who you are superior too. Nothing more, nothing less.

No, it would definitely not be fortuitous for you. Soon, the hole you are digging for yourself will be too deep to climb out of. Though, I had been amusing myself with seeing how long it would take for you to give up.

	I think, perhaps knowing the system as it is, I may very well be one of those who return. Defensive? No Sir. I'm a very mild-mannered person and rarely go on either the offensive or defensive. Allow me to wish you well in your day ~~before you go swanning around on your sanctimonious smug ass~~. I hope one day we can continue our conversation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	An interesting hypocrisy is it not? Decry the system for it's abuses, yet take the opportunity to indulge in what it offers. And yet, the moment I point out a fallacy it is We should stop talking. Somehow, I doubt it is sincere, but I look forward to the day you're able to actually have this conversation. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No Sir. Not really a fallacy, merely an observation that debating with a Professor the intricacies of Pearson when I have my tuition paid for me is not the wisest of moves. (Reply to this) (Parent)
