Treasur, Oxford!! I knew you were brainy!!

[Treasur]

  a lot of pretty stupid people go to good universities though...I think Boris proves that point!

Treasur - I never knew.....

What a hoot and I would agree with your last post!

I taught many students, who had no understanding of the world, go off to uni and still have no understanding of the world after graduation.  But that's life I guess.

Boris is anything but stupid. A man that speaks at least 5 languages and writes goood books about Classics is not stupid. He is an idiot and likes to cause troubles, be it personal, national or international. Like his (and thoose other Dave's mates that wanted to set some old scores with him) Leave bus.

Oxbridge is full of stupid people as are any other universities. On the other hand, there is no shortage of very intelligent people who never went to university.

The No Fault Divorce plague is spreading. It is not a good thing despite what some people think. It only levels what is not at the same level, like a cheater and the cheated spouse, etc. No Fault is great for a cheater, nope, not their fault, even the law says so. Bah!

Anjae, I have to agree with you on the No fault divorce, not that I'm very knowledgeable about it, but it doesn't feel right to me.

Regarding Boris, yes very intelligent people can be really stupid. My H is one of those,  super intelligent, highly educated from a hard to get into US university, but he's a total idiot now.   

But the majority of people who get into Oxford are very clever - and nice! Treasur, is the example!

And that's what's so clever about Boris - he gets attention even from us here on HS - he knows how to create interest by doing and saying stupid things.

That said - if he is in MLC - he is an expert in masking depression. I suspect though that this is the case and he is in complete denial which would actually match up to lots of things he has said and done over the last few years.  Makes trouble and then walks away blaming someone else.

Wasn’t sure where to put this but there is a movie coming out about MLC starting Edie Falco. Begins streaming on Netflix on September 14. It’s called The Land of Steady Habits.

Oouuu, gonna have to caught that one, Nas.

Thanks for the heads up.
Hope it's realistic.

[Milly]

Me, too, can't wait to check it out!

 Here is the synopsis:

 Looks like it will be at least more realistic than other films or writings about MLC. From reading this, it looks like the man in MLC comes to regret his choices. It says that he is unhappy with his new life.
