Let’s end with a nice wholesome picture.

#1 did you just spend $100k on a "slow" but safe investment in your own education? idiot!

Omg, the one where you turn up the brightness to see the stars worked! Simply beautiful how those celestial bodies float in the sky.

I live in Ann Arbor and I hear stories where its $200000 + shiturnship for 30000 jobby.

A 40k job you say, well I'm ready
Bottlecapboy
If you spent 100k on a degree and got a 40k job, you got the wrong degree (inbeforethedownvotes)

I THINK THAT IS THE JOKE EY

My friend doesn't understand #1 ...
srslysterling
I told my friend it was apparently about paying for University? But the premise is super flawed?

I've seen that chicken so much now that I skip to the next picture without looking at it. I win!

I found it interesting that a lot of celiac people also have type 1 diabetes. Yeyy immune system. My ex-uncle lost both legs to celiac

I lost the game

Does anyone else think the Minecraft one is a bit harsh? I feel like some other punishment would be more appropriate.
CairoLen
I mean, did the kid say "Fuck you, bitch! I'll do what I want!" or was it mild, normal kid back talk?
GlassTurtle
I like that that dog is named Memphis buck monster.

I like that they crossed out the dog’s last name for privacy, but left it there for the girl.

No that’s just the color scheme

Can someone explain to me whats funny about this meme?

Heroin, like the drug. like its not exactly heroin yet, but it will be someday.
RawDoggingRandoms
Did you spend 100k to make 40k? Reminds me of "strippers make 80k a year to put themselves through college to make 50k a year"
AngelGiuffriaNiggor
Yeah but your window as an 80k/yr stripper is pretty short.
Neptuneflyer
You can't strip when your 40 though
DavidBrooker
You can do whatever you want, you just can't expect to get paid for it.
Silent1fd
IDK, Kate Beckinsale, Rachel McAdams, Jennifer Aniston, any one of them started stripping my wallet/bank account would be empty.

People with celiacs get service dogs, the legit kind I mean?
VeinyFleshTrumpet
Glad I wasn’t the only one to think this
claptheclapaway
As someone with celiac they can be trained to detect the traces of gluten. And kids aren’t great at knowing what they can and cant eat

I need a service dog for my sensitivity to peoples bullshit.

WITNESSED!
Spikelf
Legit service dogs. Not just a vest you bought online so you can take your dog everywhere. I assume
SVan117
Thank you, sir.
TheBlueMuppet
This is a Service Burrito.
HolyHellJezebel
I don't think so. It's a sensitivity to gluten.
neergmas
It’s an auto immune response to gluten
ImADudePlayingADudeDisguisedAsAnotherDudee
Yes, type IV hyperSENSITIVITY reaction, so @JesstheRed is correct.
CharlieTangoRomeo
People with celiac do have a sensitivity to gluten, so sensitive that it will send them into anaphylactic shock. Unlike people with a >
CrazyMrowLady
What? No they don't.
CharlieTangoRomeo
< 'gluten allergy'
redbacardi
Strike that & reverse it.
uffda0
Or not necessary acute anaphylaxis but over time exposure causes stomach cancer ... can’t donate someone a stomach like you can a kidney
Skrai
You can when you're dead! Please everyone become an organ donor!
Shohanna
Yet.. But I am sure they are working on it.. lol
Snowier
Yes. For people with actual Celiac, eating gluten is a huge deal.
CrazyMrowLady
Not "needing a dog" level of huge deal though.
ChorkyLumpkinella
Well that's true but why are we letting people rely on animals instead of educating themselves.. she seems old enough to learn
CairoLen
Sometimes age isn't enough. Some kids just don't develop the skills early enough to keep them safe.
WarKittyKat
A lot of people are sensitive to trace amounts. For example, a rice cake made on the same equipment as wheat products could trigger.
Snowier
It's possible to be unaware that something contains gluten. The dog doesn't need an ingredient list.
uffda0
I ate a cracker the other day my friend told me was gluten free. It tasted suspiciously good so I found the box, it was not
DungeonMaster69
But what the fuck does the dog help?
billionyearoldcarbon
They are trained to detect it.

i too enjoy comparing static numbers to rates.
TapToRetry
1st one is dumb. 40 on 100 invested is a tremendously good investment
TheFlyingSheep
I hate these ads lol. I graduated with about 10k debt (13ktotal with 10 year payment) and my job pays 50k. But fuck college right?
ArbitUH
Also, that 100k investment might get you access to a job you really love that you wouldn't be able to get without a degree
OfficialCommentFromCorporate
I paid for college working full time with $10k in debt in the end. Took 6 years to get from $35k to now making 6 figures. The ad’s silly.
AemarCanderin
6 years, 6 figures was a term thrown around when I joined my company after college. That level of growth is not around anymore. I'm stuck.
kenkennethfromconnecticut
I spent 6 years getting my degree, got an entry level engineering job at 90k plus great benefits. Success is out there!
smtxom
Starting*. I didn’t do the four year college route but I’m pretty sure the ROI erases that debt if you choose the right degree.
thebestjake
That is a big IF. You are correct but a lot of degrees have negative roi. there are quite a few articles
ProbablyDrunkAgain
Lifetime earnings, you're better off with a degree than not :
thebestjake
The point is there are degrees that are better than others https://www.salary.com/8-college-degrees-with-the-worst-return-on-investment/
PakitoTaquito
What are the best ROI? STEM and Business?
ProbablyDrunkAgain
I won't argue that, but taking the entire population into account having a degree trumps not having one.
IsoPropylPotatene
Pretty poor return. Still I ain't gonna throw stones. Better than a ~*MYSTERY AMOUNT THAT MAY BE NEGATIVE*~ A year.
Deikin
How is it a poor return? If you spend $100k for an education that gives you a lifelong job of $40k, you've made profit in less than 3 years.
ProbablyDrunkAgain
If you're stuck at $40k/yr for life, you done fucked up.
kenkennethfromconnecticut
Because if you get that at entry level you’ll never get a raise?
ProbablyDrunkAgain
Thats' what people seem to think, but whatever, they're dumb.
Orionsdick
Except after taxes it’s more like 35k and after the loan sharks take their cut it’s 27k, which can last for 10 to 15 years
kenkennethfromconnecticut
You can payoff your debt at any rate you want.
dannakala
Also opportunity cost for the 4 years spend in college.
srslysterling
That's technically true, but options without a professional degree are rarely as open. Not everyone can do the exploitative union jobs
IsoPropylPotatene
I can get a 40+k job right now and my only investment has been the couple of years I helped out in a factory for cash.
IsoPropylPotatene
Like, maybe if the 40k job you get by spending the money is a bit comfier than working on a factory floor.
Koreantrogg
Trying to get a 50k+ a year job, I’ve had 4 different jobs in 4 years lol I graduated 4 years ago. Idk if i need mental help or not.
Deikin
The amount of the "$40k" is not the point they're making. The point is that the first number is bigger than the second, which is silly.
GlitterInTheDarkNearTheTannhauserGate
Holy shit what degree cost 100k? Engineering (with honour) in NZ costs around $30k NZD
srslysterling
Depends on what school, what scholarships, etc. I left uni for much less. But the "America Sucks" circlejerk is sure to pile on here soon.
misspostmarked
Let’s see... mine was $10,000ish a year full time tuition
GlitterInTheDarkNearTheTannhauserGate
Which degree?
MrMertan
That's "Murica" for ya!
AFSaltLife
Its really not if you go to a reasonable school.
srslysterling
Be careful, you don't want to disrupt their "America Sucks" circle jerk.
GreaterDog
Tuition at a good state school will run you $9k/year instate, or $13k for engineering/sciences. Add cost of living because you're lucky to
DavidBrooker
$9k is the *international* tuition rate at my uni O_o
GreaterDog
squeeze in even 20 hours at minimum wage.
spunkybanana
I paid $16k/year for a public instate school. Plus parking and books and everything else you need.
kenkennethfromconnecticut
I never paid for any books once I learned how to steal or buy and sell back on amazon
AFSaltLife
16k included room and board?
spunkybanana
No just for school
