So if you guys have to fart at work, do you bust ass in the middle of a billion cubicles or do you go some place private. Ooops, gotta run to the server room. BRB!

Server room... But I usually try to hold it until right before my boss has to walk in there.

This thread was by far the most entertaining I've ever read. I do hope she/he/it/op wasn't serious.

But come on guys, you're getting a little tough on the Home-learn-ed!

I was homes schooled K-12. And I'm more 'normal' than most kids at the college I attend haha. It's all about the parents. You either have the, "I dont want my babies being exposed to the horrible world." or the "I don't want to pay for your ass to be put in a private school, and you're sure as hell not going to that school where everyone is getting shot at." The latter being my parents.

So hey guys I have a stethoscope how do I open my own Family Practice? LOL

This made me laugh!!

Nice smart alec reply. Impressive.
Is there something wrong with someone wanting to become something? Or are you just trying to fit in?

This is what makes me laugh.

And of course, this thread has nothing to do with me. I don't have all the answers and I'm not above all in photography. But you are. Huh? A young person thinks about becoming something, and you add this to the discussion. This isn't critique, nor is it advice. It's about you wanting to fit in.

And again, this makes me laugh.

"Nice smart Alec Reply"....You realize this whole thread is a joke from an OP that hasnt been back since the 2nd post.
Who are you to come in here acting all high and mighty on your photography horse? Its one thing to explain yourself in such magnificent detail when the post is actually useful, and not 5 pages of Facepalm and ROFLS.
Save it for a post that matters, and an audience that wants to listen.

Also the guy who you're trying to "beat" has a link to his photos...thats more than you.

LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW! yes, yes I agree save it for a post that matters, and an audience that wants to listen! Thank you Stephen..

+1
Most home school parents I know do it because they don't want their kids stuck in an environment where the teachers aim toward the lowest common denominator. I'm yet to meet one who doesn't want their kids "exposed to the world". I think this thread does prove the very herd like mentality of public school kids.
As far as the OP. There is a lot to learn before trying to market yourself as a photographer. I would recommend finding a photographer in your area who is good and volunteering as an assistant.

I homeschool my kids for the same reason. I want my kids to have a quality education and our public schools just aren't providing that. I'm sure there are people who homeschool because they want to thump their bible but our reasons are strictly academic. A nice bonus is that my kids grow up "in the real world" they certainly don't have to spend 25+ years training for the chance to apply to it in the future.

Unless you're trying to be all ironical and ****...... the word you're looking for is "chalk". You mean "chalk one up for the public school kids"......... right?

Yeah........ You must have held to the same grammar curriculum as the OP.

This is like shooting fish in a barrel.

Word of advice, don't take anything LightSpeed says seriously. Everything they post is kind of a joke. On the same level as Sobolik, except they actually have slightly better grasp on the English language.

But still, there's an ignore button. I used it on LightSpeed once I established they had nothing of substance to offer. :thumbup:

And it sure doesnt hurt to grow up around mature (in most cases) adults instead of the immature peers we surround ourselves with on too many occasions. Of course, you do need peers. And if the parents did it (homes schooling) right, you find other outlets. (ie. church, boy scouts, girl scouts, and sports)
