I don't know if it's partying as much as it is everything else. I work full-time and go to school part-time, and I suppose I'm not taking my full educational opportunities as I don't have the time to discuss anything with anybody outside of class, and the whole play and museum thing is hard to do when I have to spend Saturday and Sunday catching up with Monday-Friday's studying.
In my experience, most of the challenging classes I've taken have been small ones with less than 30 students; I've taken literature classes at a community college that were far more engaging than some of the ones I took in university, because the class was small and the instructor was genuinely interested in what she was teaching and tried to pass it on.
Why aren't toxic workplaces evolved out of existence by sheer turnover of staff?
Because the economy is complete ass, new jobs that are less toxic are nearly impossible to find, and people have bills to pay.
I read a few of the Dragonlance books because the guy I was into at the time liked them.
I should have known it was not going to work out when he wouldn't read Lois McMaster Bujold in exchange for me putting up with his gamer cheese.

The badgers are even worse. And will be a big giant hit at work tomorrow.

Same here. They're welcome to my message board signup mails. Of course, I'd probably not clickyclicky on the exploit link anyway...

Yeah, they're "rally caps"; it's supposed to be for good luck. However, it never seemed to work for any softball team I was on as a kid...
