  1. I’m going to contrast this for a second because I honestly have a different school of thought on this. @WrathOfHan First, no, not everyone has to go to college. But if you aren’t you better have a good idea of what you want and you’re able to do without a degree in the current market. I’d recommend if you don’t go to college you go to a technical school, learn a trade, gain some type of valuable experience or background that’ll let you get a decent paying job. Despite what others may say, you are limited in what you can do in the US without a degree. (There are perfectly valid options without one, but know what they are and be sure you’re making the best decision.) And going off of that, you can’t get a degree if you can’t pass your classes. Plus, whatever you do in college, from the organizations you join, what work experience you get, your grades etc. that’s the stuff that’s going on your resume when you apply for jobs. No, you don’t need a 4.0 unless you’re applying for grad school or a position where they care about your grades. And you can leave your gpa off a resume if it’s poor. But good grades do say a lot, they won’t get you automatically hired, but if you show you put extra effort in and got good grades in hard classes, you’re doing yourself a favor down the line. Plus, if in a year or so you think you might want to get some more advanced training (whether it be grad school or a competitive internship. Both great things, as long as you have an idea why you want them and such) your performance in college will matters. It may not matter as much in 10 years if you’ve been working for 7 years, but it’ll matter for getting that first job you work for 7 years (and that’ll matter for the next job). Climbing a job ladder is literally climbing a ladder, previous steps become insignificant to the present as you climb but had you skipped them you would have fallen. Dont blow off college, otherwise you’re just wasting your time and money.
  2. The only way to make it better would be when she sees his blu-ray collection have her say, "You still buy physical media?? LOL, pirate bay all the way!"
  3. Quote of my initial message to Spaghetti "We still have a lot of high profile ties, as well as 5th places that make it by with one vote (even when the spread has the 5th place with over 10 votes, which is a high amount) Funniest User tie could be dealt with by just going to 4 nominees for those two user cats, we've done that prior. But I don't think we should cut nominee amounts in any other cat. My preference for the rest of the cats would probably be to either expand to 6 nominees for the film cats (let TV and BO be 5, let Users be 4)"
  4. Ensemble, Actor, Supporting Actor, Supporting Actress, Costume Design, Sound Design, Hero, Funniest User
  5. If you want to know, my initial suggestion was to have 4 nominees for Posters when I suggested just upping to 6 for the film cats to break the ties. The reason we bumped to 6 nominees is because there were a lot of ties. We had 7 or so.
