Apparently I have a very strong self-harm impulse, because I was compelled to buy my second jar of ghost pepper salsa.

I checked my electronics class grade and freaked.  63 / 100  What!? No!  The teacher said I passed!

I scrambled around and tried to contact the teacher in an attempt to figure out what happened.  Heart pounding, If I fail I'll have to pay out of state fees to take it again.

Then I double checked the grade and turns out I forgot to add in the 30 points from the labs way down at the bottom.   ...derp.

63 / 100 is not enough to pass o.O!?

The school requires at least a 70/100 to consiter it a passing grade.   60-69 is a "D" they don't like Ds.

93/100 Not bad. ::Applause::

A high mark to pass would hopefully encourage students to study and aim for higher marks. Of course, it probably also causes a number to burn out after a while.

Yea, I'm actually near that point myself.  I'm doing well in the classes that actually have something to do with what I want to do. (electronics, networking+, A+ Operating systems) but badly in the general education classes. 

I got 3 Ds in college algebra(technically 2 withdraws and a 'D').  I'm in the process of appealing to take a lower level math and still meet the requirements, which I'm not the only student to do by any means apperantly.   Kinda crazy how I got a 93 in the class the college algebra is supposed to prepare you for but I can't pass the college algebra.

Flowers for Algernon caused me a minor freakout this morning. Sad thread for more details.

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

I was under the impression that most profiles there are disturbing.  Of course, I don't go to internet dating sites on principle, or read about them if I can help it.

Can't be arsed to do a search for it at th'mo, but let us say that for a notable few, they didn't realize that was a heart until just recently. They though it was something... else. Search of GD should bring something up, though, if you're interested in hunting it down.
