    Now that is funny and weird. A perpetual student. I assume he has to keep his grades up so no slacking.

    Maybe he could even wear a Muppet suit and be Faculty Mascot!

    There’s no life sweeter than that of a 34 year old college sophomore- Matthew McConaughey in character as David Wooderson on SNL.

    “… he has to keep his grades up so no slacking.”


    No, down! At Walden slacking comes summa cum laude.

    Oddly enough, when I went to college there was a guy who was 32-36 during my time but he only took a few classes a semster (all he could afford, I know he worked part time at least for some of the time I was there) Last I’d heard, he’d have enough credits to graduate a year after I did.

    Awesome, whether he realizes it or not, Trudeau has created two absolutely perfect icons for today’s Democrats. The mooching slacker on a fully-funded, lifelong gravy-train, and the narcissistic faker with delusions of talent and relevance. The irony is almost too rich for words.

    Your non sequiturs are almost too rich for words.

    My daughter graduates this year.
    She fully admits winters in school beat the heck out of summers working.

    Good to see he has a secure future. That’s all anyone can ask for

    Roger Zelazny created this over 35 years ago in his protagonist Fred in “Doorways in the Sand”;

    “Fred receives a generous stipend from his cryogenically-frozen uncle as long as he is a full-time student and has not received an academic degree, which he has put off for 13 years by changing majors repeatedly”
