Are you secretly PennState1985? Has this all been a social experiment? Are you banned from Wikipedia? Inquiring minds want to know!

I left OSU at the height of the dot com boom, when the lure of six figure salaries and eight figure stock option packages was too much to pass up. I was studying for MCATs at the time, preparing for my last semester at OSU, which I was going to follow with a little time off because that's just when I first fell ill. I left just a hair short of my degrees.
The summer before last, I learned of Penn State's online offerings, and decided to rebuild a new degree -- something I could make use of even if I never fully recover. I left microbiology and biochemistry behind, and built around psychology, philosophy, and political science instead.
Yes. Technically speaking, I, Clarity of BuckeyePlanet, have been a Penn State student. Not a Nittany Lion per se. My blood is still red, er, scarlet. My ears still bleed that scarlet blood when that stupid Lion roars when we play them (not that it did much this year, lol) -- but I am certain that I've created a deep tear in the karmic fabric of the universe as a result of my oh-so-loose affiliation, and these two losses are our cost.
So, I hereby promise to cut all ties with State Penn BEFORE next season starts. |
OMFG!!!!! it all makes sense now! this is all a Penn State resarch project for Clarity!!!
horror of horrors! Clarity is PennState1985!!!

Yes, this whole site has been a gigantic social experiment. I'm writing the next chapter of my thesis right now, it starts with a tangent about the frustrations of buying bean bag chairs. (Sadly, I make this reference, and only like 1 out of 10 will remember LouisHMartinez/TheyCallMeAssassin/Etc.)
I think my little online classes here and there have infected me with Paternoidosis. I think that infection was spread through BP. Identifying it was the first step. Setting fire to it is the second.
If we win the title next year, I will be big about it and welcome the lynch mobs into 'my' home.
