I forgot
fat.
Some women just seem to prefer men in their 40s. My second-year English teacher was an attractive 20 something who used to go on and on about how she fancied men in our (current!) age bracket, though she also specified the wearing of
suits, which is not so great.
She may just have been attempting to stem the tide of spotty, awkward 14 year olds spilling
their our seed at the merest glimpse.
My third-year English teacher, a rotund, hairy pipe smoker in his 40s, used to tell us that the most attractive girls often fell for the quieter, less assertive boys, as they are constantly bombarded with crude approaches and thus appreciate a lower arrogance level.
Maybe English teachers are just wishful thinkers.
It does make sense though, what good will it do society to give an educated person a custodial sentence for possesing drugs.
If that happened that person probably wont be able to get a job again for the rest of his life, and all the contributions he could have made would come to nothing. Plus that person will be a drain on tax payers money for the rest oftheir life in the form of income support and housing benefit.
?
What good does it do society to lock up an
uneducated person for possession? Why is it worse for an educated person? I suppose you might be thinking that an educated person "contributes more to society", however I don't think that's necessarily, or even generally, the case. I don't particularly want to turn this into a philosophical debate, but let's just say that I think there is more social good, and more
essential good, provided by agricultural workers, truck drivers and bartenders far more than those of fund managers, marketing executives and accountants. We could cope quite easily with a graphic designer's strike (no offence to graphic designers, who are frequently talented and skillful, and often contribute to making life more pleasant; it's just that the social role is not particularly crucial).
It would be particularly unhelpful if nurses and surgeons were getting locked up. But in fact they are at risk of losing their jobs if they're merely convicted... I think it's a dead cert on a second conviction.
Most of the educated people I know work in IT for financial companies, it might be a good thing to have some of them locked up for a couple of years :D
My stairs seem so extensive.

Did you specialise? We had "Science" classes in first and second year, then specialised from third year onwards. We were to discover that our Science teachers were in fact specialists in their own fields as they taught at all levels. It was quite a small school, though, bigger schools may have had dedicated Science teachers.
Actually I'm not quite as bad in person, it's partly the formal nature of the written, nay typed, word that brings it out in me. Spending years going through computer code looking for logical errors is another reason for my annoying behaviour.
