[05:04] <GuacamoleCCXR> Yeah [05:04] <Alemas2005> Going out on holiday? [05:04] <GuacamoleCCXR> No, going home [05:05] <GuacamoleCCXR> And Dearest, I can't seem to be able to access the Pentagon; it's offline or something [05:07] <Alemas2005> ...what, home? :P [05:07] <Alemas2005> Why? :P [05:08] <Aravis Tarkheena> i can't be there myself [05:08] <GuacamoleCCXR> Because I'm done with my exams and have no reason to be in Stuttgart anymore for a while and I need to finish my internship which I have arranged with a company in Wesseling? :P [05:08] <GuacamoleCCXR> Oh, alright [05:08] <GuacamoleCCXR> Can you talk here? :3 [05:08] <Aravis Tarkheena> and I’m supposed to be doing homework now anyway so I can’t really talk either way :P [05:08] <Aravis Tarkheena> [05:08] <GuacamoleCCXR> Hm [05:08] <Alemas2005> ...what. :P [05:09] <Alemas2005> You are done with uni already? :P [05:09] <GuacamoleCCXR> TM was okay, though. :P [05:09] <GuacamoleCCXR> What do you mean [05:09] <GuacamoleCCXR> Yes the semester has ended two weeks ago, I've handed in my design project, wrote two exams, and I have 1.5 months of time until the next exam must be taken [05:09] <GuacamoleCCXR> which is coincidentally three days before the 2nd semester begins [05:10] <Alemas2005> ...so no more attending uni for a while. :P [05:10] <GuacamoleCCXR> And no, I'm not done uni, I still have like, five degrees to go until they'll hand me any kind of degree [05:10] <GuacamoleCCXR> *five semesters [05:10] <GuacamoleCCXR> not degrees [05:10] <Loney 97> yay still. [05:10] <Loney 97> Hey Keps o/ [05:10] <Keplers> Hey [05:11] <Aravis Tarkheena> I just need to finish Gatsby questions and the paragraph about a thesis I can’t prove and then I’ll probably have to be offline for the day; dad as usual [05:11] <Aravis Tarkheena> [05:11] <Bioniclefan1> o/ [05:11] <GuacamoleCCXR> Hm :c [05:11] <Keplers> Nothing like unproven theses [05:11] <GuacamoleCCXR> I hope you're okay though [05:12] <GuacamoleCCXR> As I said, TM was actually easier than I expected it to be; with all tasks I immediately knew how to proceed [05:12] <GuacamoleCCXR> the thing is [05:12] <Aravis Tarkheena> I’d link you Kate Beaton’s Gatsby comics but they’re definitely NSFLMBW and you’d need context to enjoy them best [05:12] <GuacamoleCCXR> the answers to TM questions tend to be so convoluted and complex that you don't know if it's right or not [05:12] <GuacamoleCCXR> in maths you can usually tell [05:12] <GuacamoleCCXR> not in TM, unfortunately [05:13] <GuacamoleCCXR> it's like stacked fractions with pis and cosines and various messy things you'd rather not be occupied with [05:13] <Aravis Tarkheena> Oh, I'm glad you were confident :P [05:13] <Aravis Tarkheena> I might give the comics to the teacher though; but it might be a stupid thing to do because he loves Gatsby and the comics are terribly degrading to it [05:14] <Aravis Tarkheena> on the other hand, anyone who loves Gatsby would be able to see they're hilarious [05:15] <GuacamoleCCXR> I know the Blogger has shown me a version of Gatsby compressed into three lines or so [05:15] <Aravis Tarkheena> it could be [05:15] <Aravis Tarkheena> it really sucks [05:15] <Aravis Tarkheena> it reads like a movie where none of the actors want to be in it [05:17] <GuacamoleCCXR> https://scontent-fra3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xlf1/v/t34.0-12/12695838_10204313551439515_136115612_n.jpg?oh=b137b6feda5642259c7a065e91ce74dc&amp;oe=56C3D786 There :P [05:17] <GuacamoleCCXR> took me ages to find it again [05:17] <Aravis Tarkheena> yet also the distractibility of all the characters reminds me of the kids on the MBs, what with how normal they think it is to say random things out of any sort of context [05:17] <Aravis Tarkheena> [05:18] <Skully Of House Lannister> kids on the mbs amuse me [05:18] <Aravis Tarkheena> that's /very/ compact :P [05:18] <Skully Of House Lannister> the funniest ones are the ones who are shocked that anyone thinks differently than they do in any way [05:18] <GuacamoleCCXR> Yes :P [05:18] <Skully Of House Lannister> not even religiously or politically [05:18] <Skully Of House Lannister> just if someone disagrees [05:18] <Skully Of House Lannister> people freak out [05:18] <Skully Of House Lannister> and start flaming [05:20] <Aravis Tarkheena> The upsetting thing is that the narrator does not make a lot of statements about the people in the book, and they’re all untrustworthy and drunk most of the time so I can’t even tell if Gatsby’s whole life story is bunk or not, because everyone’s just talking about themselves and none of them are serious about anything so you can’t trust them [05:20] <Aravis Tarkheena> [05:20] <Aravis Tarkheena> Is Gatsby a bootlegger or not, even :P [05:21] <GuacamoleCCXR> Urgh I need to get everything packed so quickly [05:21] <GuacamoleCCXR> I have like no time at all :P [05:21] <Aravis Tarkheena> I shouldn't bother you, then. :P [05:22] <GuacamoleCCXR> But I want to talk to you :P [05:22] <Loney 97> I'm pretty sure he was a bootlegger. :P [05:24] <Aravis Tarkheena> I'm afraid to do any research because I might come across some definite answers and then after I read those I wouldn't be able to formulate any of my own ideas, and that would be cheating :P [05:26] <GuacamoleCCXR> Lesson Zero for school is It's Not Cheating If You Don't Get Caught. :P [05:27] <Michaelyoda> But then you cheat yourself of the brain workout. :P [05:27] <Aravis Tarkheena> Well, it's cheating myself because I'll not be able to learn how to draw my own conclusions [05:27] <Aravis Tarkheena> and I need to do that in the exam :P [05:27] <Skully Of House Lannister> pfft [05:27] <Skully Of House Lannister> per guac [05:27] <Skully Of House Lannister> i cheat all the time (derp) [05:27] <Skully Of House Lannister> jk [05:27] <Skully Of House Lannister> i didnt cheat often [05:27] <GuacamoleCCXR> No, not really. :P [05:27] <Skully Of House Lannister> or at all [05:28] <Skully Of House Lannister> i did avoid doing homework that wasnt strictly necessary [05:28] <Skully Of House Lannister> but otherwise [05:28] <GuacamoleCCXR> They tell you these things but really it doesn't matter at all, and I can assure you, because I tested those things to an extreme :P [05:28] <Skully Of House Lannister> i was good :{p [05:28] <Aravis Tarkheena> they didn't tell me this [05:28] <Aravis Tarkheena> but I know if I rely on the internet I'm just ruining myself. :P [05:29] <GuacamoleCCXR> If using the internet to get your homework done efficiently is ruining oneself I'm 1945 Dresden :P [05:30] <Michaelyoda> o/ [05:31] <Aravis Tarkheena> If I never learn how to analyse things by myself, though, I’ll not be able to survive any of the summatives in the rest of forever; this is not a homework issue [05:31] <Aravis Tarkheena> [05:31] <GuacamoleCCXR> The thing about analysing things in school is that it's not about using your brain, though [05:31] <GuacamoleCCXR> It's about strictly following a given formula and applying that to the text you're given [05:32] <GuacamoleCCXR> They value your structure and diligence far more than they care about your original ideas [05:32] <Michaelyoda> o/ [05:32] <GuacamoleCCXR> It's sad, but it's sad reality. :P [05:32] <Aravis Tarkheena> I haven't been given a formula :P [05:32] <GuacamoleCCXR> You haven't? [05:32] <Aravis Tarkheena> Not at all [05:33] <GuacamoleCCXR> That's odd; are you sure you're not just supposed to know it already? [05:35] <GuacamoleCCXR> Either your system is very different, or it's not a formal analysis task. :P [05:35] <Aravis Tarkheena> No, this is supposed to be the first time we’re doing this [05:35] <Aravis Tarkheena> I’m sure the system is very different. :P [05:35] <Aravis Tarkheena> [05:35] <GuacamoleCCXR> The first time you're analysing a text is Grade 11? :P [05:36] <Skully Of House Lannister> :{p [05:36] <Skully Of House Lannister> #ontario [05:36] <Skully Of House Lannister> :p [05:36] <Aravis Tarkheena> At this intensity, yes :P [05:36] <GuacamoleCCXR> Wow. :P [05:37] <Aravis Tarkheena> And if they have done it before, I’m /sure/ we’d get some sort of review and handout on how it should be done; they do that with literally everything else. :P [05:37] <Aravis Tarkheena> [05:37] <GuacamoleCCXR> Like, we were expected to throw down 16 page analyses by the beginning of 11th :P [05:37] <Aravis Tarkheena> I said, the system is different. :P [05:37] <Skully Of House Lannister> the ontario system is kind of... :{p [05:37] <Skully Of House Lannister> weak :{p [05:37] <Aravis Tarkheena> I don't need help feeling any more inadequate. :P [05:38] <Aravis Tarkheena> I’ve done this before at home, but not with such a /terrible/ book [05:38] <Aravis Tarkheena> [05:38] <Aravis Tarkheena> Only Heart Of Darkness approached this level of yuck [05:38] <Aravis Tarkheena> [05:38] <GuacamoleCCXR> I think you would have preferred going to school here; it seems like more of a challenge :P [05:38] <Skully Of House Lannister> oh [05:38] <Skully Of House Lannister> they read this awful book this year [05:38] <Skully Of House Lannister> instead of [05:38] <Aravis Tarkheena> and that was the easiest thing ever to analyse [05:38] <Aravis Tarkheena> [05:38] <Skully Of House Lannister> lord of the flies [05:38] <Skully Of House Lannister> it was about some mexicans [05:38] <Skully Of House Lannister> with lots of sex [05:39] <Skully Of House Lannister> it was really weird [05:39] <Skully Of House Lannister> :{p [05:39] <Aravis Tarkheena> I loved Lord of the Flies; I didn’t study if but I just read it for fun myself and it was amazing [05:40] <Aravis Tarkheena> And no, I think I’d die in your system because I can’t even keep up to this one; that’s what I meant about inadequacy [05:40] <Aravis Tarkheena> [05:40] <Skully Of House Lannister> @ara: the ontario system is kind of...weak :p [05:40] <Michaelyoda> o/ [05:40] <Skully Of House Lannister> compared to most european systems :p [05:40] <Skully Of House Lannister> i got some education in europe and it was way more intense :p [05:40] <Michaelyoda> o/ [05:40] <Avalair> *yawn* [05:40] <Aravis Tarkheena> I /know/ that [05:40] <Avalair> Hi everyone [05:41] <Aravis Tarkheena> you don't have to tell me [05:41] <Michaelyoda> Hi Ava [05:41] <Skully Of House Lannister> well :{p [05:41] <Skully Of House Lannister> sorry :{p [05:41] <Skully Of House Lannister> js :{p [05:41] <Skully Of House Lannister> you get used to it here :{p [05:41] <GuacamoleCCXR> I doubt it [05:41] <GuacamoleCCXR> the only reason this is a problem is because you're thrown in a completely different format by the end of school in general [05:42] <GuacamoleCCXR> Homeschool is literally illegal in Germany, so you would have gone through all the classes before 11, and you would have genuinely profited from that [05:42] <Aravis Tarkheena> I don't need any more help feeling like an idiot, thanks [05:42] <Avalair> imagine finding out youre adopted [05:42] <Skully Of House Lannister> i know some adopted kids [05:43] <GuacamoleCCXR> so like... since you're actually interested in gaining skills, unlike most people who just go to school to be done with it eventually, I think you would have preferred here [05:43] <GuacamoleCCXR> But that's just a thought. :P [05:43] <Keplers> Oh, Ara [05:43] <Avalair> hi wr [05:43] <Aravis Tarkheena> my performance arts' show this year is literally all about that, Ava [05:43] <Marcel77799> Per GCM [05:43] <Keplers> You're way better-off than kids in the American system [05:43] <Avalair> Oh cool, Ara :P [05:43] <Dark Yada> Hi \o [05:44] <Avalair> Hi Yede [05:44] <Marcel77799> Most people here just try to survive school xD [05:44] <Dark Yada> *Yada [05:44] <Avalair> Yede [05:44] <Avalair> (troll) [05:44] <Dark Yada> C'mon Ava you can say it properly [05:44] <Worldracer99> hi yudu [05:44] <Keplers> Yidi [05:44] <Dark Yada> Wut [05:44] <Michaelyoda> o/ [05:44] <Avalair> Yodo [05:44] <Worldracer99> yldl [05:44] <Keplers> Ydydy [05:44] <Michaelyoda> Yoda [05:44] <Dark Yada> #itsaconspiracy [05:44] <Worldracer99> Ygdg [05:44] <Avalair> Ygres [05:44] <Worldracer99> Yvonne [05:44] <Avalair> Yvette [05:44] <Keplers> Ypres [05:44] <Dark Yada> Wut [05:45] <Worldracer99> Ylvis [05:45] <Michaelyoda> (what) [05:45] <Keplers> Ytyt [05:45] <Avalair> Ylrin [05:45] <Bioniclefan1> yyyyyy [05:45] <Keplers> Y'all [05:45] <Dark Yada> (yup) [05:45] <Avalair> that was the best 60 second conversation I've ever ha on here [05:45] <Avalair> now AFK [05:45] <Bioniclefan1> o/ [05:45] <Dark Yada> "I've ever ha" [05:46] <Keplers> He's ever had [05:46] <Dark Yada> GG (clap) [05:46] <Keplers> You've ever ha [05:46] <Michaelyoda> HA [05:46] <Aravis Tarkheena> The point is that I already suck and any “what ifs” about if my life had been 100% different aren’t exactly going to make me feel any less stupid [05:46] <Bioniclefan1> Watching The Office [05:47] <Keplers> You're far from stupid. [05:47] <Keplers> That much is evident in your tone. [05:48] <Marcel77799> Agreed, you aren't stupid at all [05:48] <Dark Yada> Nobody is stupid :p [05:49] <Marcel77799> Ehhh, no [05:49] <Keplers> No, there are plenty of stupid people.

How this guy could be a president (angry) [05:52] <Keplers> I've not followed the guy much, what could you say his values are? [05:52] <Keplers> Well, with $30m to blow on a campaign, pretty easily Yada [05:52] <Keplers> :P [05:52] <Skully Of House Lannister> Sanders? :P [05:53] <Keplers> Yeh [05:53] <Skully Of House Lannister> Oh, he just has more respect for the general population than most politicans. :P [05:53] <Worldracer99> raised taxes for the rich [05:53] <Keplers> I've laughed at his contradicting Tweets [05:53] <Keplers> But not followed his values :P [05:53] <Skully Of House Lannister> He actually supports the working class. :P [05:53] <Keplers> Well, that is true, Skul [05:53] <Keplers> I do definitely see more of that [05:53] <Worldracer99> https://berniesanders.com/issues/ if you really want to know here you go [05:53] <Dark Yada> WHo, Trump?
