"of course that's your contention, you're a first-year grad student; you just got finished reading some marxian historian, pete garrison probably. you're gonna be convinced of that 'till next month when you get to james lemon. then you're going to be talking about how the economies of virginia and pennsylvania were entrepreneurial and capitalist way back in 1740. that's gonna last until next year when you're gonna be in here regurgitating gordon wood, talkin' about, ya know, the pre-revolutionary utopia and the capital forming effects of military mobilization.
well, as a matter of fact, I won't, because wood drastically underestimates the impact...
'wood drastically - wood drastically underestimates the impact of social distinction predicated upon wealth, especially inherited wealth'? you got that from vickis. work in essex county page 98, right? yeah, i read that too. were... were you gonna plagiarize the whole thing for us or do... do you have any thoughts of your own on this matter? is that your thing; you read some obscure passage and then pretend - you pawn it off as your own... as your own idea just to impress some girls, embarrass my friend? see, the sad thing about a guy like you is, in 50 years you're gonna start doin' some thinkin' on your own and you're going to come up with the fact that there are two certainties in life; one, don't do that. and two, you dropped 150 grand on a fuckin education you could have got for a dollar fifty in late charges at the public library!
yeah, but I will have a degree. and you'll be servin my kids fries at a drive-thru on our way to a skiing trip.
yeah that may be... but at least i won't be unoriginal. but i mean, if you have a problem with that, i mean, we could just step outside we can figure it out."
don't think i got it quite right, but it's been a while.
