Grue3 comments on "Put the “Ph” Back in PhD"

By Grue3

I remember taking this. I had to answer something about socialism or marxism or whatever (I remember having to name the prominent socialist thinkers). This was in the 2000s, by the way. I got 3 points out of 5. I passed the other exams, math and English, perfectly, and that was not enough. I only got accepted due to personal recommendation of my scientific advisor. Since then I’m of the opinion that “Ph” is complete bullshit.

apexkid comments on "Why the Oil Price and the US Dollar Are Negatively Correlated"

By apexkid

Didn’t made sense to me. Will love if you add some comments below the blog to explain why oil exporters are forced to lower their prices? If US dollar goes up, then going by all capitalist laws, they should look to make more profit because the demand is constant in each economy. Oil isn’t like electricity which is wasted if not supplied.

Stratoscope comments on "Garden path sentence"

By Stratoscope

I would love to see a garden path sentence that could be used as the first sentence of this Wikipedia article.

The second sentence, in a paragraph of its own, would explain what just happened.

I doubt this would ever get past the serious folks at the ‘pedia. But if it did… This would be the difference between awesome and mundane.
