I literally had a friendly old guy in the pub say that to me and I've been together with that woman for five years now.

Thank you "uncle" Tony.

I've never met an old guy in the pub who was not wholesome as hell. I hope to one day be the old guy in the pub. Maybe since I'm almost 30, I could settle for the nearby college bar for now.

Being almost 30 in a college bar is creepy as hell ngl

PhD students should be grading papers or whatever nerd stuff they do

It is part of the hedonic treadmill we call academia

I finished mine at 24, but most people I knew were in their late 20s or around 30.

That's fucking incredible Emma.

Mad props.

Did you straight up go highschool grad -> undergrad -> honours -> done in 2 years doctorate without any breaks in between or did you somehow skip a step/start early?

So I completed high school with a number of college credits and was lucky enough to have completed my associates and bachelors within 3 years and was able to start a little bit on my PhD, at least in terms of prereqs and credits during undergrad, so I was able to finish my PhD in another 3 years

The real challenge was attempting to have a social life at the same time.

Everyone here is talking about the friendly guy down at the pub like he's a saint, but he's equally likely to be racist.
