    Isn’t it kind of late to ask students to drop out on their graduation day?

    I didn’t know Rick and Joanie had another son. Separated at birth?

    Or maybe that’s Earl’s twin. That would work.

    You ever notice how you never see any of them together?

    There is an actual person with this name who played football. Don’t have any idea if he was involved with this other enterprise. Wonder if he could sue over this?

    I wonder if GT will ever come up with an avatar for the current occupant of the White House. Not much time left.

    Why should the college president care if they drop out at this point? It’s not like they’d be due a refund.

    Not quite what the college meant when they asked Chris to “inspire” them.

    This was a standard valedictory address in my day. “Wow, that was four wasted years…let’s go be hippies!”

    Remember Hedge Fund Bro, the entrepreneur dude with the weird last name and punchable face who was arrested for raising up the price of a prescription medicine an outrageous amount? This reminds me of him. Maybe this is the future face of business.

    Just attended my daughter’s high school graduation. Very emotional.

    Thoughts are with the people of Orlando today. The worst mass shooting in US history.

    Typically, it’s far more difficult to “earn” an honorary degree … so, YES, an honorary degree IS EARNED

    All a lot of University degrees are good for, are to make the University masses of money. Unless you have a hard science degree or are at the top of your field with connections you will be hard put to find a job. Until the American public wises up about the con job that education industry is pulling, a lot of people are doomed to drown in student debt.

    Would someone please tell me what the hell Trudeau is talking about? Who is he referencing? What does this mean? I don’t follow the same things Trudeau does and I have no idea why he would think this is relevant or funny.
