Yay, our degrees are meaning less and less!

Welcome to the Laser Party. We are made of sex.

You, on the other hand, are the embodiment sadness and are typified by your longing to matter. This amuses us. Fret not, however, for you can easily overcome this condition. In order to become the human concept of Joy, as we have done, you can do one of two things. The first is to undertake a journey to Ancient Ademadegon and return with the the 3 heads of the Awesomegret which roosts in the Crystal Caverns of Caramel Colors. Or, two, register on this site. They are basically the same thing, really.

Click here for option two. <- Registration

Unsuccessfully, but still. Well, at least that's a constructive major. You can actually create things with a computer science degree, as opposed to pushing papers around all day.

My brother just got into the Marriot School of Business here at BYU. It's nationally ranked; so, if nothing else, it's credentials that will say people say "Wow" at your resume. Plus, you learn a bunch of necessary economics and accounting stuff to be a super CEO.

Apparently they like English Majors, and it's a secure and comfortable job, and people keep them forever. So yeah. Gonna hop on that there gravy train. That, and I like the idea of being the obscene librarian. "Shut the FUCK up, this is a LIBRARY. God DAMN IT. People are trying to READ."
