You have to have standardized tests to be able to students from across different institutions.
My opinion has NOTHING to do with the fact that my wife is a $100/hr tutor and test prep expert.

My wish isnāt going to do anything. Screw that person.
The only thing it does is make you a worse and angrier person, and more prone to wish ill for others again. I still do this too, but I try to be better.

No, I completely understand the value (and mum runs a company that makes significant revenue from test prep)
Itās that thereās no reason those tests should cost so much nor should doing well on them rely on getting used to a specific testing format

Are you telling me the companies that set up an online test once, and prep materials once (that are downloaded), doesnāt need $100 per try on their test?
Youāre making me think the whole thing might be about easy passive income from poor students.
TBH, I wish I could have gotten in on something like that.

Today marks the third time a cop or in this case a pig, acts unnecessarily rude to me. I am really starting to hate going through that security checkpoint in the morning. Iām starting to get the feeling that itās only one cop whoās doing that and he is probably the same one who was giving me trouble last week.
Fuck that miserable pig, all the other officers have been chill. Then this one is just angry for absolutely no reason!!!
Maybe he just doesnāt like being called a pig?
He can go to hell.
I wish I could call him a pig but then heād probably kill me lol.
Thereās nothing illegal about calling someone a pig. I doubt heād kill you for it too, but if you treat him like heās about to shoot you at all times - he probably doesnāt care for you either.
I bet if you tried initiating a genuine conversation with him, asking him about his well-being, heād be cool with you. Honey gets more bees than vinegar.
Are you in Massachusetts, by any chance?

Itās a drive-through security checkpoint and I do not want to have a conversation with someone who is so unnecessarily angry. The incident today almost ruined my day, but I had a good day at work.
I am not.
Well then between your guy and the guy from my log, I guess thereās at least two shitty cops in the world

Donāt let an unfriendly person ruin your day. The construction industry will be very challenging if you do.
