10/16/2011 9:57:08 PM

the head of a very large animal clinic making too much money

10/16/2011 10:00:44 PM

Most likely not unemployed, divorced, and broke. Fuck. My. LIFE.

Just the thought makes me want to eat the bidness end of a shotgun.

10/16/2011 10:48:29 PM

Money, employment and marriage are overrated.

People threatening your life on internet forums is where it's at, man. I don't feel my day is complete without at least one threat. Today was no disappointment.

10/16/2011 10:51:13 PM

Probably in a pretty similar situation...

10/16/2011 10:51:46 PM

Probably would have had a much higher college GPA had a doctor not misdiagnosed a crushed artery and slipped disc as a possible brain tumor and sent me to specialists all through college. I really did not give a fuck about school as an undergrad.

I've done very well since then though.

10/16/2011 10:54:08 PM

what the fuck kind of ivory tower question is that?



and besides, i don't think i can try any harder than i have so far. if anything, i'm a classic case of "tries too hard."

10/16/2011 11:02:42 PM

You shouldn't say that zxappeal. You know we luvs you.

10/16/2011 11:06:47 PM

Id be married and would have a kid and a successful auto business

i would likely be very wealthy right now

but i'm content with the decisions i've made

10/17/2011 12:17:29 AM

i'd be in the same place LOL. don't ask me how i did it, b/c i have no idea.

Inside of Jessica Biel

10/17/2011 12:24:29 AM

Better Grades, Better Schools, Better Job, and more money.

seriously if I applied myself in undergrad the way i did in grad school things may be night and day.

10/17/2011 12:24:47 AM

if I had just studied harder for the LSAT in college I'd be graduating from a top law school this spring (all other factors were pretty solid). Instead I'll be graduating with two masters, which isn't bad but I'll probably end up in law school anyway and could have saved time/money but hopefully my degrees will contribute to a good legal career with the fed/jag by the time I'm 29 or so. time flies

10/17/2011 2:21:43 AM

fuckin bitches....gettin money

10/17/2011 2:22:44 AM

The same place

Or maybe I would have gotten in my first year of applying so I would be done and married and working.

10/17/2011 2:25:24 AM

You too friends, could have a life with punchmonk.

If only you tried a little harder.

10/17/2011 2:26:48 AM

Trying too hard < *

I'm Krallum and i approved this message.

10/17/2011 2:39:05 AM

AHA, ssjamind always has me LOLin!



But this question is impossible to answer. I coulda tried a little harder and gotten into a more prestigious school. And then got mixed up with heroin and ended up on Intervention. And they'd send me to this awesome rehab place where I randomly meet Sasha Obama who is there for an eating disorder. And we'd become best friends, and I'd meet the former president! And have a drug-fueled affair with Michelle, which gets me shunned. So I'd have to write a tell-all book about it as revenge. And I'd go on Fox News with my story, but I'd like nod off on heroin while Bill O'Reilly is screaming to cut my mic. And I'd spend all my book earnings on drugs and women. And when they reran my Intervention episode, they'd have to show the update: BridgetSPK relapsed in 2010. She is currently back on the street with her one and only companion, a blind three-legged pug named Bruno.

If I tried a little harder I would've applied for college of design at the end of my freshmen year. Not doing that has been my only regret. I wish someone would've told me that you would not get bored doing what you love as a job/career choice...that was my worry. But I was just too afraid of rejection after seeing some of the work by (what I thought) way more talented folks in my class.

However, not doing so has got me where I am now, and I love my life. Maybe that's something I'll explore again when it's time for me to return to work.

Probably a surgeon of some type. I love the concept of surgery and dream of being a surgeon, and still wish I hadn't quit med school after just 1 year.

10/17/2011 5:41:23 AM

graduating at NC State in may (instead of nuclear power school)

10/17/2011 5:47:27 AM

This thread has issues. It doesn't really specify what you're trying harder towards.

If I had tried harder towards my career I would have moved to Los Angeles last May and attended every film festival to which my senior short film was accepted; thereby making film festival connections which would make it easier for my future feature-length films to be accepted and subsequently distributed.

But I can still do that later, and I value the relationship for which I stayed in Miami.

Until May.

Then I'm LA-bound.

10/17/2011 6:57:11 AM

right where i am right now. ..dropping my kid off for school. even if i tried harder, I'd still be home with my kids.

10/17/2011 7:44:53 AM

finished with my thesis instead of working on it now

10/17/2011 8:32:51 AM

I would have my P.E. already and probably own a (2nd) house by now... but i'm not in anyway ashamed of how i've lead my life... i've had a lot of fun and have a lot of memories i wouldn't have had i conformed harder.


The thing that really fucked me is the market crash and my downtown condo.

Corner office. Laughing at the 99%.

Retired by now.

10/17/2011 8:40:21 AM

better question would be

if i hadn't found the wolf web / social media

i'd be ceo

10/17/2011 10:07:38 AM

unfortunately i don't think things would be any better. thanks, ken, for rubbing it in.

10/17/2011 10:11:16 AM

Probably would've already had product on the market, but I guess I can wait a little bit for that

Or I would've cleared my plate of these contracts and been able to focus my attention to R&D more

Maybe working on liquid body armor, but otherwise I'd be in about the same spot career wise

i don't like thinking about it

i'm depressed that i haven't found anything i'm truly passionate about

10/17/2011 10:24:12 AM

In vet school.

10/17/2011 10:41:47 AM

Probably about where I am now, maybe slightly more $$. However, I'm sure I'd have a different set of friends which would be

10/17/2011 11:43:13 AM

maybe have my own art space, be a part of the school board, or head of some environmental non-profit, an architectural engineer, or diabetic educator. Don't really know. I feel about like Jeepin4x4.

10/17/2011 12:34:07 PM

about 5 years further along in life than I currently am

10/17/2011 1:10:15 PM

naah, i am good thx

10/17/2011 1:10:43 PM

10/17/2011 1:14:27 PM

i'd probably be in grad school wishing i were dead

Kinda this...but moreso I know my passion, and I'd probably be living it out by now had I tried a little harder.
