I swear. Kids these days - it's like they'll get born to anyone! No standards, I tell ya.

If you succeed or fail in life is all dependent on you, not your environment, not your genetics, not your finances, not Barack Obama. Granted you might have to work harder than the next guy because of these things but thats life.

But I guess its the American way to blame everything and everyone for our shortcomings but ourselves.

Now, there is something to be said about the role of academics in different cultures, but to say that someone in America did not do well in school for lack of opportunities is almost always wrong. There is far more potential for social mobility here than in any other country that I know of.

So yeah, maybe some *should* drop out of high school at 17.

Before the grammar nazis come to try to justify the importance of school: this isn't helium...

Unless you are working at CC and threw a fit like this it is apparent you have some kind of skills that this tard does not have and worked at it.

If you have a top secret clearance than, AGAIN you did not conduct your life like this kid did either because of the back ground check needed (though you never said WHAT top secret clearance you have...there are MANY levels...just saying "top secret" actually means jack sh*t)

I will add that I bet that if you stated youre profession it would further point to some type of education and experience that reinforces his point further.

Somehow I don't think Bill Gates went around acting like a delinquent like this jerk did.

...or would you wan to put money on this kid being a success or failure later in life? I know which way this episode indicates where he is going.

I don't have any formal education beyond my short lived time at a continuation school after I was thrown out of high school for an array of problems including acting like this jerk towards staff and campus supervisors.

I did my fair share of low level jobs and again acted like this jerk a lot because I thought "The Man" was always out to get me. Mainly a job where a supervisor was always trying to bust me for bringing weapons to work but never found them. Me and him were always butting heads but he really couldn't do anything unless he had another witness or proof. I look back now realizing he had a right to protect the other workers but still should have had a slight understanding that when I'm getting shot at in my own home and have to walk 45 minutes to work that shyt is no stroll through Mayberry. Just because someone doesn't have a police record 4 feet tall doesn't mean they are a model citizen.

And in regards to the clearance, I hold an SCI, but going the extra mile to point that out is just being snooty ;)

As in, the bars of the jail cell are gray.

Srsly tho, this guy knocked over about 5 boxes. Big whoop. I've seen little kids at Wal-mart take out more merchandise than this dolt. The worst damage he did was make the rest of us waste our time reading this article.

WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT!!!!

"would have", "would have", "would have", "would have", "would have". Think about the meaning of the word "of", now take a look at your sentence. Does it make any fucking sense?

Sorry, bit of an overreaction there. But seriously, WTF man? I bet you're one of those people who would HAVE used "your" in place of "you're", sixteen words back.

Carry on.

Then again, I can't keep my inner Grammar Nazi in check either when I see a person try to correct someone else's grammar, when their own post is riddled with grammatical and spelling errors. Just! can't! stop! :D

I'da walked too. Especially if I had more time on the job than other folks.
