Though I don't appreciate the allegations of abuse, I commend your effort to find me position that will allow me better fund your educational and recreational pursuits.
You're both in trouble when Cala finds out about that blog.
Claire, you need to stop enabling Ben's drug habit.
As it happens, I know of a creative writing job in Chicago that pays about $65k/year and has gone unfilled for about a month.
And all you have to do to find out about it is sleep with ogged. (We've all tried that at some point, ogged.)
um, Ogged, if you're serious about that creative writing job, do you mind giving me your contact info or giving your info to Ben to give to me? Ben could buy a lot of crystal meth with 65k a year.
I'm not serious, Claire, I just didn't like your tone.
Did you find it uncongenial, Ogged?
There is a demand for creative people on rue Saint-Denis if you are interested.
What particularly didn't you like about my tone?
Ogged doesn't want Claire to be able to buy Ben's love away from him.
13: Your skin tone, Claire. Ogged hates him some honkeys.
How do you know Claire's white? Racist.
There wasn't anything wrong with your tone to my ear, claire. I think people are just joking around.
Claire Huxtable was just a TV character, B. Her real name was Phylicia.

So now honkeys have to be white? Racist.
If they want to get into the regionals, yes.
Threadjack: I have to teach moral luck tomorrow, and I want to do some sort of classroom exercise. The reading is a short section of their textbook which outlines some basic features of the concept and Nagel's essay of the same name.
So what should I do in class?
Bonus question: Is "bringing everybody down" a legitimate pedagogical goal for a philosophy class?
Labs is the best one to answer that question, and I don't think he's around today.
22: you mean like Claire Danes?
This thread hasn't been very helpful.
Bonus question: Is "bringing everybody down" a legitimate pedagogical goal for a philosophy class?
The only one.
26 Are you trying to bring us down? Like as a dry run?
Have you ever had the dry runs? It's miserable.
Ask them why it matters for our evaluation of the blameworthiness of a drunk driver who drives off the road whether someone happened to be walking in that location at that time.
That's too easy. Besides, I prefer to focus on constitutive moral luck. "Is it my fault I'm too lazy to improve myself?"
Perhaps I should use the New York article in the post above. Is it this kids fault he was praised too much and now gives up easily?
No, as a matter of fact, I believe it's your mom's fault.
Poor Claire. There's alway religion.
There's alway religion.
You mean Amway?
I was thinking of this order. They require a vow of poverty, so I guess the pay is minimal.
