Students

1 Conversation

The quest for knowledge and the advancement of the human race.

Yeah, right. Students have everyone fooled. Some believe that study is hard work which is intellectually and
psychologically taxing, is a great burden on the mind and body and earns the student a well deserved qualification
which will allow him/her to get a better start in life. Others believe that the whole thing is a scam and that students just
indulge in alcoholism and consume narcotics, whilst taking everyone (the government, parents, educational institutions
etc) for a ride. Students themselves have never thought about it, being too busy working and getting high. This is the
beautiful thing about the whole affair: plausible deniability. The real reason students are students is because they have
no clear idea of what they are actually doing at all. It is only the occasional student who realises this and at this point,
he/she has only two options:
a) Work harder and get high more often- continuation of student status is not possible whilst in possession of the reason
why. This is too neat, and not how life works. Therefore more study and more drugs must be used to eradicate the
horrible truth.

b) become a roving researcher for "The hitchhikers guide to the galaxy".........
