Another idiot got hit by a car on campus yesterday...

You'd think people would be smart enough to put down their damn phones and look before going out into traffic, but no.

You give people too much credit ... The majority of people are oblivious to their surroundings and the effects of their actions ...

[topgun 262]

People are idiots, that is all.

mmmm thai food

[topgun 262]

Ewww, thai food

[vladd 26]

people are idiots but it's the idiots in the cars thats the problems, you're on a college campus you better be ready for kids to come from anywhere. it seems like every year at least one kid gets hit in a crosswalk, i just about wish they'd just eliminate the road around the drill field altogether.

[vladd 26]

oh yea, forgot to tell ppl here but from now on i will almost always be on invisible on aim, just msg me as i'm usually signed on i'm just tired of idiots messaging me all the time, i can't imagine what you all put up with considering i'm not well established on ca.com

[topgun 262]

I don't use AIM, and theres only a handful of people I care to talk to on MSN

[///M5 2,833]

I don't use any of that schtuff.

Airsoft guns in the dorm are fun as hell.

I pwn everyone with a damn pistol.

Going up against someone who shoots pistol for a hobby is a dumb idea...

[///M5 2,833]

I bet that impresses the ladies...

Hey bitch, I just shot your ass. Now suck my dick.

[///M5 2,833]

/\ Wow!! I wasn't expecting that. No funny editing of my posts.

[topgun 262]

Hahahahahaha, Funny chit.

Natural selection. Idiots die!

This one lived. One last year didn't.

I'd be the guy hiding down the hall with an airsoft machine gun nest...just in case...

I just ignore people...

Most people have started to not even bring it here cause I've told them if they do I'm going full auto, and the do NOT want that...

[topgun 262]

The more I think about it, the more becoming a state trooper/cop sounds like a good idea. Get paid to drive around, around guns all day, etc, etc, dosen't sound like that bad of an idea. Beats hell outa engineering classes.

[JimJ 11]

Definitely have to love what you're doing...the pay sucks compared to the chit you'd go through. One of the people my parents rent to is a cop, and he's applying for law school. It's odd around here, you can be on the Duke campus and in two minutes be on some gang's turf...and Durham isn't even really all that big of a city.

But what do I know, I'll probably be taking the same approach

[topgun 262]

Eh, I don't know what I want to do, I haven't known for 19 years.

All I really enjoy doing is building/desiging/breaking stuff. Really not to fond of engineering stuff, I just don't get calculus and chit.

[JimJ 11]

x2 on all of that.

I have this feeling like I'm going to leave here with a degree and be doing something totally unrelated...which may not be a bad thing for a while.

[topgun 262]

Everyone I know has told me that they are glad that I'm an EE major, and it suits me and so on and so forth. But to be honest, I'm not sure that EE is for me, its to much theory based and small stuff that isn't hands on. I'm more of a hands on type of guy, hell I'd bet quite a few EE majors couldn't even tell you how to wire a damn light switch.

Hell if I know what I want to do, being owner/operator of a fabrication shop would be pretty f'ing sweet though.

[DevilDriver 28]

The responsible side of me thinks you should stick with engineering. It is a mentally challenging job with high financial rewards. At the same time, my free spirit side says do whatever comes to your mind.

I am an engineering student and I love it. Math, physics, gym, and computer science have always been my favourite classes, and now I am actively involved in three of those categories.

Sometimes it just takes a while to figure out what you want to do. If I had gone to university right out of high school, I would have wasted a years worth of tuition, so take your time and find something that fits.

[topgun 262]

I hate calculus, don't real fond of physics, science isn't to bad though. It seems kinda odd for me to be an EE major, I can drive pretty much anything with wheels (grew up on a farm), semis, tractors, fabricate with wood and steel, MIG/TIG/ARC weld, work on cars, fix crap, work with livestock, love to be on the road driving, love the outdoors and actually doing something. While to me the typical EE job is sitting behind the desk figuring stuff out on a piece of paper or a computer program doing routine stuff.

Prahaps an enironmental engineer? Go design farm equipment?
