Maybe if you and your douchebag friends like Devil boy and mcearlgay did not try to act like you are smarter than everyone else, then I would not have to bring up real world facts to put you in your place.

You [b]FUCKING RETARD[/b], I am quoting [i]FROM THE LINKS YOU PROVIDED[/i]. Did you even read your own copy and pasted links? Either no or you absolutely prove my point that you are a fucking retarded dunderheaded stoner who merely thinks he's smart, despite all evidence to the contrary.

From your Wiki link, RE: Rankings and accreditation:

"In 2013, U.S. News & World Report ranked Pratt Institute as being one of the top 20 best colleges in the north.[56]"

Footnote #56 links to the same site/data from which I quoted above (which is also the same as your colleges.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com link): [i]"Pratt is ranked #20th, not out of national universities, nor out of national liberal arts colleges, but out of fucking regional universities, and just those in the northeast, for that matter..."[/i]

I merely put that ranking statement in its proper and complete context. Not a single thing I cited is incorrect--and I cited it from the links you provided. You're just apparently too fucking stupid to understand the content of the article/data/stats/methodology that you yourself copied and pasted to argue with me. But we knew that already. You are a fucking idiot.

So maybe the next time you go digging around to "[i]bring up real world facts to put [me] in [my] place[/i]," maybe try asking someone smarter than you are to help you interpret the data/info for you so that you don't wind up, yet again, looking like a total fucking retard on top of bragging like a self-righteous but dim-witted third grader about what is, as illustrated by your own fucking "[b]real world facts[/b]," pure and utter mediocrity.

Jesus fucking christ, you retard among retards, you still don't fucking get it.

Pratt is not "a best college in the north." It's ranked #20 merely among a subset of a subset of schools that already [b]excludes[/b] [i]THE BEST COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES IN THE NORTH[/i]. How can you not fucking get that?

So let's put this in stupid person terms so that even a fucking retard like you can understand it:

US News & World Report 's educational rankings [b]start[/b] with the category of [i]National Research Universities[/i], as in Princeton, Yale, Harvard, MIT, U of Chicago, etc. Thus, the first tier "quality colleges...IN the north" are already removed from the set, which includes dozens of schools (for the sake of being nice, let's cut it off at the tie for 32nd, with NYU, U of Rochester, William and Mary, and Brandies.

The next array that's removed from the set are all top tier [i]Liberal Arts Colleges[/i], which start with Williams at #1 and, heck, we'll cut it off at #30 (and again, I'm being overly generous to Pratt here) with Bryn Mawr to account for the five-way tie for 25th, which includes the Air Force Academy and Oberlin, each of which fucking blow Pratt out of the water with regard to academics--which, most importantly, was the primary claim you were making in your response to DevilDerrick's question about whether you think you are smart; ie that your degree proves that you are).

I suppose if I said I was the smartest guy around or the smartest guy at ytmnd or went to the best school in the world or even something comparable to Ivy League, you might actually have a point there.

But considering that most people don't even have a college degree, that automatically places me at an advantage at that regard. No matter what school I went to, I would still have something most Americans do not have (currently 70%). Something that clearly requires a few brains, a bit of talent and some work ethic.

But we all know of smart people who have either never went to college or did not complete a degree. Some of them are geniuses. Therefore, it is fair to assume that a degree completer (regardless of where he/she went) obviously has more than a few brain cells to rub together.

But then you throw in my admittedly only decent 3.2 GPA, the idea I am stupid becomes harder to swallow. You also have to consider that most of those courses were in the 12th best communications design department in the USA, especially in the later years. I even took on electives for the hell of it while still maintaining the GPA.

My alleged stupidity (according to DevilDerrick and you) becomes harder and harder to swallow. Which is the only point I ever needed to prove in this whole argument.

But if you allege that Forrest Gump could somehow do all this (which would be insane), does it make sense to think he also worked in 4 different places (plus freelancing gigs) all relevant to that degree, even being a goto guy for technology questions and issues? Do you think Forrest Gump could somehow have figured out far off things like MySQL programming or TV commercial quality 3d animation? Especially learning most of it outside of school?

[i]"'ve long speculated that you intentionally act stupid here as some kind of troll.[/i]

I thought that too, for a while, but then confirmed he's a fucking idiot IRL, too. He's the personification of American arrogance: so fucking stupid and overcompensating for low intellect with an outsized ego and image of self that he's literally incapable of both the humility you mention above and understanding how often he misses the point. It's a personality disorder magnified by an obsession with arguing on the internet.

The saddest part is that he thinks it's [i]everyone else's[/i] fault. Because I act like a juvenile asshole here, it's literally impossible, in his eyes, for me to also ever be right, even when all evidence illustrates what a fucking moron, who regularly supports homophobic, misogynistic, racist bigots, he is. He calls my (clearly intentional) bickering behavior trolling, but then regularly attacks random people, even in outdated comments from years ago, because he's a bloviating opinionated asshole.

Worst of all, he fancies himself a sincere, positive, even helpful community member, despite that he once spent a whole comment page ranting against Muslims, that he regularly brags about how much $ he makes (not much for an adult with a college ed, really), boasts about his coding skills, as though this site isn't populated by lots of users with similar or parallel tech skills, regularly upvotes sites by actual racist/xenophobic assholes, and gets his panties in a bunch anytime anyone calls him out for this behavior indicative of a fucking stupid, self-impressed, narcissistic "internet intellectual." While I almost pity him for being such an out of touch moron (seriously, he had to have been a fetal alcohol syndrome baby or dropped on his head or something sad like that) he's also such an asshole that it's more fun and funny to watch him shit in his own moth in public over and over again.

And as if scripted in a scene by Aaron Sorkin or a Daily Show skit, right on cue, mDS proves his detractors 100% accurate in the most fucktarded way possible. Rather than summon up the rare display of introspection or humility, or articulating a reasoned, cogent rebuttal, he instead dives headlong into the now famous Palin-Cruz-Bachmann-Gohmert "Dipshit Double Down" defense, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt what we've known all along about him: he's a fucking retarded hypocritical self-aggrandizing asshole who gets off on the smell of his own farts and the sound of his own voice.

You'll have to forgive me, I'm just a humble Pratt graduate.
