So I go to buy my books today. Classes start on September 2nd. My books cost $420. More then likely my professors will make me go buy course packets that I more than likely wont use anyway or that will cost me an arm and a leg. Somehow I always end up paying out the ass. So I'm staring at my books trying to figure out what I will actually need and what I will not.
The thing that really gets to me is I'm used to having my butt pounded but this is ridiculous. Every Spring and Fall I get brutally rapped without any lube by the IU bookstore that insists on charging an arm and a leg to poor college students.
We must end the rape by bookstores. We must end the brick shoving that has taken all of us down. This is why people don't read. It cost too much. I can watch the movie version of some book at a friends for free or in my own house. Its the gift that keeps on giving that Televison is. I pay for it once and it pays me back over the course of 20 years. And libraries are a joke. They only have 1 copy or 2, that means some other cheap son of a beotch that doesnt want to pay has already had my idea.
I have six books for one class. Im looking at it thinking, "Great, I have to read all this shit in one semester on top of all of my other classes." Then I realize that if I plan to go to law school the amount of reading I have in one semester will someday be the amount of shit I have to read in one week. So I quit.
Yes kids, I'm quitting school, I'm quitting life. I'm going to buy a van and live down by the river. B-Diddy the river dweller.
Back to TV. Yesterday a friend informed me that in a few years we will all be required to purchase digital televisions or we will not have a TV to watch. WHAT KIND OF HORSE SHIT IS THIS? I'm not buying a new TV. I only want to watch "Will and Grace". Jesus Christ I can't even buy VHS tapes anymore. Instead I have to buy a DVD player, Digital TV's and all this other up to date crap. Then computers update themselves every 2 days. I can't buy a new computer every two weeks. WHY, WHY, WHY?????????????
OK, I think Ive bitched enough.
