    “Oooh, witness me, I have a job, I’m very important! I work all day to pay taxes and rent, but at least they don’t keep me on a short leash.”

    Yeah, see, I knew you were a midwit.

    BTW did you get one of these when you graduated?

            I never said I had a PhD, I said I had a Master’s degree. Are you even paying attention?

            And as far as student loans go, I don’t have any, because it turns out that if you’re smart enough, you can get a scholarship.

            BTW, drivers on Uber and DoorDash can set their own hours, too.

              Oh, sorry, I figured those lies were completely exchangable.

              Like the scholarship lie, you easily could have made up mommies money and it would be just as believable.

              You think driving a car is a science career? That tracks

                Okay, here’s something I bet you didn’t learn in school: if you’re a habitual liar, you have to assume everyone else is constantly lying as well. So you always have to second guess everyone and everything in order not to be found out or outplayed by a better liar.

                If you tell the truth, on the other hand, you might get taken for a ride occasionally, but on the plus side, you can identify liars with ease, because they’ll generally be the first to accuse you of lying when they feel like they’ve overplayed their hand.

                Sorry about that delivery job, bro. Shit’s tough right now for a lot of people but hang in there, it’ll get better again.

                  Nice armchair psychology. Ive got a better one for you.

                  When someone on an internet forum is 10 comments deep into losing an argument where they are trying to claim they know better than actual scientists thanks to how much youtube they watch, and then suddenly by magic they were secretly well educated the whole time? Thats 100% always a lie.

                  These same people are also usually the type to try and mock literally every form of education at every opprotunity. Further undermining any validity they had by lying about being educated.

                  Sorry about being a fucking dumbass bro, unfortunately I dont think that gets better.
