Yeah apparently a famous quote of his shortly before he created Scientology was "if you want to make money, start a religion" or something along those lines.

Why does the world only look at you based on your titles and college level education instead of your natural God given talents and abilities? The world is to vain and all into business. Understandable yes, fair; no.

^ I guess it's for the same reason we've got so much litigation and people employed in litigation. If people just used their sense we wouldn't have those trying to sue each other right and left and need tons of lawyers, but it creates jobs in the litigation culture we have, which is supposed to make us 'safer' (because not many people are using their sense, I suppose). Making people have to get a piece of paper to get a job means more people are employed in teaching them in order to get the jobs they want.
I've been to uni before and believe me there are people who get the paper at the end that are still unfit to the do the job they are 'qualified' for, and there are people without formal schooling who are clever enough to do it. I asked myself the same question, and now I see further education is being commercialised - universities are charging students to be educated just to be able to compete in an increasingly selective job market. The original point of university is being lost, which was to provide a place of learning to produce the most qualified society needs... engineers, medical specialists, scientists, teachers, mathematicians etc. Now they're more interested in milking people's desire for a 'good job', but it's the governments that have encouraged it all. It's part of a policy of making public institutions function like businesses instead of public services, and trying to create jobs out of nowhere for people to do.

"Outrun this!"
Gosh. REALLY?
I thought it was a reminder there FOR YOU.
Bloody hell, if you're going to leave notes lying around for me, at least ADDRESS it to me. What am I supposed to smell that it's a note for me? You know, TELLING me that you left a note for me at the computer wouldn't hurt either.
10 years babe. TEN YEARS. Have I ever ONCE read your mind in all this time? NO! So don't expect me to start now, idjit.
Good (*&&*%^%*&(*)(*. That note has been lying there for three weeks. Thanks so much. Just another thing to get frustrated about.

It all happened before, and it all happened worse before, that you weren't alive around then, or you didn't knew about it doesn't means it's all going to end.

Okay, really guys? Please don't clog up the RP with a bunch of OOC posts. If there's a problem talk to the GM about it on their profile, not the motherfuckin' thread, dammit.

^ I thought eBay forced people to offer free shipping in the media category now...?
If not, they are going to 'force' them to soon enough anyway. The reason P&P goes to unreasonable prices is because some unprincipled sellers want to charge more then P&P is worth and get more money out of the sale that eBay won't get their hands on. But eBay are bringing in rules that allows eBay to take money from sellers from the amount they charge in P&P too which is a damn cheek if you ask me. eBay don't pay the postage on the items, why should they have a cut of it? Still, it will stop those particular sellers charging stupid amounts for P&P because apparently items with free shipping will be given search listing priority.
Sellers charging unreasonable postage are a pain, I just avoid them if possible. eBay are doing their damndest to drive people like me away from using their site it seems.

^that's not surprising, just shows how much of a disease ignorance is.
They're gonna say I'm stirring it. I'm waiting for the trolling to start.
Guess what City fans, he's found a better deal at a rival club and he's sh****ng on us all by leaving.
Its an i told you so moment... how many of the faithful will remain i wonder?

I'm making myself sound like the biggest freaking idiot in the word. I'm really this upset over ________? Really? I know the only reason I think its stupid to get so upset over it is because I've been conditioned to believe it is and that I actually have a really valid reason to be so upset but....
Bleh.
EDIT: Oh my gosh. I'm a hypocrite. I'm gonna throw up.

OMG! are you all so f***ing blind?! Can't you see that man is sh***ing on us. No, of course you can't, you all think the sun shines out of his ass, and your rose tinted specs are so dark, you can't see the wood for the f***ing trees!
He was probably waiting for that club to get in the sh*t, pounce when no one was looking and then dropped us at the end of the season if he didn't get promtion with City! HE'S A BUSINESS MAN! OPEN YOU'RE F***ING EYES! He's gonna leave us hanging!
