Today, someone at work was bragging that their son was high school valedictorian and offered a full college scholarship. 7 years ago, I was also valedictorian and got that same scholarship. All I said was, "Congratulations. Did you want fries with that?" and continued taking their order. FML

It has to be one of those four, huh? Because you know of four situations so mine has to be one of those four? I'm OP. I took the scholarship, got a B.A. in Economics with a minor in Computer Science (not quite Basket-Weaving or Art History, sorry), did analysis for a company that recently went under, started working for a start-up until I ran out of money, then took the best job I could find, which happens to involve selling french fries. By the way, he DID want french fries. And he got them.

If you went to high school in DC, you got to be valedictorian because you're the only one who didn't get pregnant, shot and killed or thrown in jail. So, DID he want fries with that?

Our school Valedictorian is now a stripper. No joke, her stage name is snow white because she was really pale.

Just goes to show how much more important knowing what you plan to do with your life and doing your best in college to reach that means.(not to say you didn't do this) Many go to college and think they want to do something then they ditch the program or whatever your college calls it part way into it. But our economy is in a pretty bad place and finding a good job without experience in many fields sucks.

You do realize that Obama's trying to fix what Bush screwed up for this country. And just because a new president is elected and is trying to fix the economy doesn't mean it's magically going to just all be better.

I read it as him seconding the first guy's point.

The_Pleb was saying he is second. I know that my other comment was #24.

No. The_Pleb was claiming "second", not seconding the first guy's post. I know this because the_pleb is a little fucknugget who needs to GTFO.

Dude. You missed the perfect putdown opportunity. All you had to say was "Wow! So did I!" And then the guy's overinflated ego would suffer for YEARS.
