Streeter: Higher Learning Edition
Friday afternoon, a Thai eatery in the Annex. Three girls in their late teens or early twenties are having lunch with two middle-aged women, possibly former high school teachers of theirs. One of the girls is expressing her dissatisfaction with university.
Girl: "Anthropomorphic." That's the only thing I've learned. That's a $12,000 word to me.



That's genius. And it perfectly illustrates why I just started college after finishing a university degree.
The girl is pretty dumb to begin with if she didn't know what anthropomorphic meant by the time she entered University.
