I wanna do a comparison:

 

I get sick probably once a year, and it's never serious. Am I that resilient to disease?

depends highly on your lifestyle and what you eat

'Cause my brother gets sick a lot, and he's f!cking stressed. For him, that happens 3 times a year, I guess...?

an average of 3 times per year is still pretty much normal

Lucky. I too get sick rarely. But when I'm sick, it freaking sucks. I mean, not super terrible like I'm gonna die, but still. About a year ago I had Glandular Fever.

Because I'll totally be using that in my future job... Reports maybe, but not much else besides that. If you can speak intelligently, you can write intelligently. Just get your point across, no need for fancy schmancy uses of the English language.

 

Being able to write proficiently is a plus in any field, I would say. It's just a plus in general. If company sees how well you can write, the chances of them hiring you soar through the roof. Very confident and solid usage of the English language in writing is like carrying a giant flashing neon sign over your head that says "I know what I'm doing."

 

And they're not trying to get you to use English in a "fancy-schmancy" way, it's about being able to write intelligently. Which, as it turns out, is not always a product of being able to speak intelligently. Translating floating ideas in your brain to paper in a flowing manner is a lot harder than you'd think. For me, at least.

 

And yes, I'm defending a class that I despise taking. Why? Because there are a lot of people out there who benefit greatly from it, and I can see how it does.

The fact that my brother's f!cking stressed, and the fact that stress affects your immune system, tells me that he's overstressed and the fact that he's sick so much means that his body's telling him, "Hey, dummy, stop being so stressed".

 

I only had that happen to me only once before.

that's definitely a possibility

Alright, new question: Anypony play Simcity 4? Who hasn't been asked that?

[Floris 287]

 

Anypony play Simcity 4? Who hasn't been asked that?

 

 

Me and I haven't played it.

 

 

I don't really like Sims games.

The thing I despise about them, is that I already knew what I was doing. There was really nothing new that I was taught, it was just rehashed from high school. 3 classes and it was the same thing in all of them. If you made it though high school, you can write intelligently. There's still some professions that require a higher knowledge of the subject, but most can get by with high school English classes.

[Ganaram Inukshuk 3,682]

Alright, I gotta go back to writing stuff up.

 

Over and out.

Well, that's just the college you're attending. I know for a fact that the college level English courses at the school I'm going to are miles harder than the one I'm now.

 

Sure, you can have enough to get by... That's just getting by though. And like you said, there's many professions out there that require it. I still think it would be helpful in any situation.

spas-ticShotty does/did. Too bad he got banned, eh?

 

Also, will you be responding to that PM I sent you? It says you looked at it, but I can't be sure if you read it. I would like an answer. You can say no to my request if you wish.

[Delzepp 2,939]

It takes time for me to respond, but also far too much time, at the moment, for me to do any sort of vectoring. The modding department calls for me once more.

I know, I know, I just forgot to save it the first time

 

besides, I don't work with bookmarks

[Ganaram Inukshuk 3,682]

I use bookmarks, but half of them are outdated, and the other half are personal.

 

But I don't use physical bookmarks, because I don't use physical books...

I wasn't talking about physical bookmarks, because those I do use XD

Then you use a type of bookmark that I don't use. We're at opposing ends here...
