i don't know, the internet tells me any more than 2 years is either pedophilia or grooming these days.
and probably - literature. or political history. i like those.
[ maybe in another life. if he'd gotten to come home, to live out a normal life, or as normal as one that he could get. learn some things, get a desk job, provide for himself and some nameless wife he's gonna divorce in a few years once the kids are older. it's a decent dream. ]
when did that happen, anyway? why is everyone so angry on the internet?
[ it was a shock, at first. back then, people kept their business to themselves, kept their happy faces on at all times, and bucky isn't saying it was good because heaven knows they were just as fucked up back then as anyone can be now. but to have all of that raw, unfiltered anger out where everyone can see? it worries him. anger is a dangerous bedfellow to live with. ]
and i'd like that. nah, it's my school records i'm a little concerned for. pretty sure the education system's changed since i last went in 1936.
using my purely canadian knowledge about college here!
God, who knows. I think it's because it was so easy to be anonymous on the internet and just troll people. It really brought out the worst in humans. I just try to stay away from comments now, and ignore those puritans trying to tell me that sex is gross, or a thirty five year old is grooming me. It's better that way.
I bet they have them at the Smithsonian. But, a lot of colleges will accept you on a trial basis - like as a mature student? Lighter class load, and you don't need to prove your grades. At least if you're willing to go to a state school instead of like, Harvard or MIT.
i don't mind state schools. honestly, there are a lot more options these days, from what i've seen. and vocational centers, those are nice, too. before you'd just learn from your uncle or some old guy down the block and hope for the best the union takes you on after.
anyway. sex is gross now, huh.
Okay you're probably even more different than I am!
just on the inside? isn't it like being pregnant, you either are or aren't? don't take my word for it though, we didn't really have a detailed vocabulary for understanding fast girls when i was coming up.
do they still use that? has that been antiquated now?
So I know what being fast means, but I don't think anyone really uses it anymore. My grandma scolded me for it once, actually. Did you have any terms for fast guys? Or was that also not a thing back then?

That sounds really nice. You should just do it. I can help with the politics and political theory, at least until third year.

Sex is actually super gross and I am very repulsed by it.
...Just kidding! Ask anyone who knows me, I 'm a little slutty on the inside. (Don't worry, I'm reclaiming the word.)
