Interesting question: In what year did it become en vogue?
I mean....did I miss something? What happened?? When did ignorance become the way of life? Does swag spell ignorance when played backwards? Why not? You believe everything else.


Seriously, dude your woman looks to you for wisdom and, in some cases, guidance. Your children look for even more. When did it be come manly to not be able to provide either? Where did this aversion to knowledge come from?


You can not name me one drug dealer that lived the life forever. Not one pimp nor playa. Laying around the house watching tv is not a marketable skill. Nor is every weekend club hopping.
I know mostly guys, but some woman as well, in their 30's without as much as a GED. That's really depressing. And you want to get mad whenever someone suggest your going back to school?


How do you expect to raise a boy and you cannot tech him to be a complete man? A little girl wants to feel her daddy is the smartest man in the world. How is that going to happen with you dummy?


Don't believe the hype.
To attend school in the majority of the country is free to you. (True "somebody" pays those grants but that is another topic.) Why would you not take advantage of a free opportunity to learn you a marketable trade or degree? Who does that?


Has circumstance beat guys down to the point of surrender? No more desire? No will? You do not want to improve? Happy with sleeping on a couch that belongs to someone else; sleeping under someone else  roof? I pity the type.


Enroll in school. Indeed the job market is very limited in some places; more so for people with "background" issues. If the situation is non-drug related you may qualify for financial aid to dozens of colleges and universities. Why not? Its more to life than chasing women and throwing rocks at the penitentiary.
