Like Brad I didnβt skip classes at college. I majored in Economics and most of the classes were hard enough I couldnβt afford to goof off.

Man white kids have it easy. I had additional homework assigned to me by my parents on top of my school homework.

Speaking of tech "upgrades" I recently got a new Xbox Series X to play Starfield and replace my One X. Since the Kinect doesn't work with the new Xboxes anymore I brought it to work and am using it as a webcam for Teams meetings hahaha
