The beautiful city of Edinburgh and then within... the land of the socially deprived ..... AKA physics labs
If ever there was a term inviting mockery, it would surely be "socially just". I can't remember exactly what your course is called, but I know the rough area of study, and I'm fairly sure "socially just" doesn't really fit... unlike myself of course doing such a socially just course
Me personally or the University? Either way I am confused...
Well, I thought love was only true in fairy tales, and only happened to other people, not myself. Love was out to get me, or at least I thought it was. There was disappointment in all my dreams.
But then I saw her, well only her face, and now I believe. No doubt. I'm both in love and believe. I couldn't leave if I wanted to.
You know, I thought love was basically a given thing. I gave more and I got less. Why bother trying, when all I get is pain? I need some sunshine, not rain.

Did I just do that?
I'll get my coat.

Well considering one of our course modules is entitled "Working Together to Achieve Social Justice", I think it fits rather nicely.
Don't worry.. I have just been informed that you have been skipping lectures.. tut tut.

Achieving social justice and being social just are two different things...
Ah, you mean the two I missed today (which by the way contained stuff that I had learned in higher maths two years ago) because I've caught the flu that is going around and could not talk this morning, as well as having a nose which was running faster than Bolt and a cough that is just bloody annoying. Oh, and sneezing every few minutes at dangerously loud levels. If your informant has not informed you of the sneeze which was so loud it echoed into the microphone the lecturer was wearing and then reverberated around a lecture theatre with around 250 people in it, then you should ask him.

Social justice can be achieved within my own community of practice so technically we can be socially just as well...Achieving social justice and being social just are two different things...

That sounds so parroted I almost want to don an eye-patch and litter my conversations with "Yar!"s.
Just a side note, am I the only one who sees the irony in talking about "social justice" in a thread about Dundee?

Anyway, I'm going to try and sleep, although that would probably require me to not cough for a period of time... Oh well, I'll try. Cheerio.

Would rfr10 & Alan 16 please take their infantile discussions to PMs and stop slagging off my home City? This thread drift has gone too far methinks!

But AT new students are supposed to sit up all night discussing social justice and slagging off everything and anything the older generations have created. They get it out of their systems and they won't need to resort to doing it in late middle age on the Org.Would rfr10 & Alan 16 please take their infantile discussions to PMs and stop slagging off my home City?

Mind you, we were more sociable and did it in our rooms having just consumed a week's grant of booze.

Don't worry, I'm not the one slagging it off. I think it is a great place, hence the reason I am here.Would rfr10 & Alan 16 please take their infantile discussions to PMs and stop slagging off my home City? This thread drift has gone too far methinks!

Dundee
Thank you to all that have helped with what I was looking for, as the thread has now served it's purpose and gone slightly wonky, it may be time to close it.

You're not seriously saying that you think Dundee is more beautiful than Edinburgh are you?
And there was me thinking wisdom came with age. I'm just curious as to what part of you thought that calling both myself and rfr10 infantile for slagging off your city (which isn't true seeing as one of the two of us lives there and likes it, but I wouldn't expect you to have actually read our comments before commenting yourself) was a good way of getting it back on topic? I, personally, would have just ignored our obviously tongue-in-cheek comments if they annoyed you so much. Oh well.Would rfr10 & Alan 16 please take their infantile discussions to PMs and stop slagging off my home City? This thread drift has gone too far methinks!

Students... drink? I don't understand what you're talking about!
