"Whats the biggest screw up in your life?"

What the worst thing in your life,like your family or drugs.

Both subjects sux'd like cheap hores when I was at school.

Biggest screw up? Taking Art instead of Drama all those years back in GCSE :0D

What you want is an airhorn! When they are funking about just walk out casually hiding it & let it off. See the monkeys jump out of their skin.

Yeah I'm not; I don't mind most of the time because I'm at uni, but back here it gets annoying when I have to work they're messing around just outside my door, getting up to date with today's news and other things to pass the ample time they have.

Studying AI; computer science with a hint of insanity.

You dont sound to happy about that. What are you doing at uni then?

Oh, they do. First year history, criminology, sociology, music and history students in my corridor - what do they do all day Sunday? Sit in the hallway, for 6 or so hours doing NOTHING. Why? Because they've completed all their work for the week, which apparently ranges from learning simultaneous equations (because their syllabus has time for that) or finish off their *SHOCK* 1000 word assignment for the week.

Go to uni to learn? Are you sure? I didn't go but my mates did & it just sounded like they dossed about all the time.

No, it's just the software industry encourages you to reuse code to save time; y'know, no point reinventing the wheel, etc. But at uni the main concern isn't about cutting corners, but more to do with learning stuff (which may come as a shock to other degree takers), hence plaigarism is a filty filty tool to have. Until we graduate.
