If college professors are people that society should look to for wisdom, how come so many of them used to think that communism was hot shit (and some still do)?
[/QUOTE]
Heh. Because communism looks good on paper and many college professors have never experience the life in what the rest of us think of as the real world.
Why is my new manager such a dick? He brought me in because of my experience and ambition, but all of my ideas are being shot down and I’m starting to think I made a big mistake coming here (it’s only been 6 weeks, dammit). Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?!?

We have a number of new nail salons open in my neighbourhood lately. How come the only people I seem to see working at them are of Asian extraction?

Because when they die a week later from severe brain damgage brought on by working in an environment with almost no oxygen, they can be easily replaced by newcomers who are desperate not to be working as prostitutes.

Why does everyone make college out to be the funnest thing ever? I think it sucks. It’s just four plus years of extreme stress and regret and failure with some beer in between.

Because, after those four years, you get another 60 years of extreme stress and regret and failure. And a lot less beer.

Never mind that, how do you pronounce it in regular English? I’ve only seen it in writing.

Lovecraft said the proper way was to make a “Klooloo” sound in the back of your throat. I can do it, and it does not lend itself to transliteration. When you feel like you’re pronouncing a thing meant only to be spoken by inhuman beings and underwater, you’re there.The more common way is “kuh-THOO-loo”

Everywhere I’ve ever been, Asian people have cornered the nail salon market.

Do really obese men sit down when they pee?
I just thought of this the other day at work. Some really big guy said he had to pee and went off into the bathroom. A few minutes later I went in to wash my hands as he was coming out of a stall instead from where the urinals are.
I’d imagine that logistically it would be far easier to use a toilet than a urinal in such a case, and as I think back I don’t remember ever walking up to a urinal where there’s was an overweight guy standing a few urinals down.
Don’t read too much into this question. Thank you.

[del]I hate to be indelicate[/del] no I don’t, this is the SDMB; some castrated men gain a lot of weight, & would likely need to sit to pee.
If you ask your co-worker about this, please do film it, & post online. I love boxing.

A coworker of mine fits into this grouping and I can say that everytime I’ve run into him in the restroom, he always uses a stall.
Why do people say to get a print screen you hit ALT+PrintScreen? I just hit PrintScreen without the ALT and it works every time. Is this a holdover from earlier times?
