"Things I don't get"

I don't get why the thought of marriage and children scare the living shit out of me?

Because you're smart.
I don't get why people think they HAVE to get married and have kids.

That should be moved to the Zip advice thread. I was going to type the exact same thing after reading what Daviticus said.

ALL YOU NEED IS ONE, MAYBE TWO SEMESTERS TOPS TO GRADUATE! YOU'RE ALMOST THERE! WHY LEAVE?

I can understand a fresh or soph leaving, but after your 2nd year, it's either pros or college degree.

Lets say you are in your 3rd year of school for sports broadcasting, and ESPN likes you and offers you a spot to be an anchor. You can't tell me you would turn it down to finish school. You can always finish school, a dream job like an opportunity to be a 1st round pick only comes around every so often.

I AM in my third year of school for broadcasting right now, and I would drop school for ESPN without a second thought.

I don't get how we pour our heart and souls into things we absolutely can NOT control, like which of the 30,000 guys who screwed Anna Nicole Smith is the father of her kid, like what Don Imus said, like sports teams, like who an 18 year old kid will go to college and play for, like the weather...
And yet, the things we DO control, like the governing of our country, a corrupt administration sending young men to die for nothing, taxes, our education system, saving the planet for future generations...
THOSE things, which could be the EASIEST to change (if by no other means then getting more than about 45% of the people to VOTE) we surrender to politicians and beaureacrats (SP?) that we spend our entire lives bitching about.

Amen, my good man.
