Sheep to slaughter have very few desires and are quite peaceful.
"In physics, string theory is a theoretical framework in which the point-like particles of particle physics are replaced by one-dimensional objects called strings. String theory describes how these strings propagate through space and interact with each other."
Total disconnect!
What is this idiot professor talking about?
"buzzword, buzzword, buzzword...."
A man’s got to know his limitations.
So the takeaway here is don’t try to excel at anything lest you want to become a crazed lunatic.
Liberalism : expect little, achieve little.
Liberals need to be caged, not given access to write on the internet.
The illiterate loon from Salon has NO IDEA what String Theory is!
Hey, you achievers out there! Stop achieving! You’re making non-achievers feel bad and shoot people and stuff1
People are not taught to delay gratification or handle adversity and failure. Therefore they can not handle it when it happens.
More proof that the mental hospitals are empty because all of the inmates became college professors.
Dumbest thing I’ve heard in a long time.

No, its the intellectual geniuses in universities that demand that we give children trophies for showing up. And telling them how wonderful they are regardless of how much effort they put out.
When these children meet the real world and fall on their face they are angry and hate those who do accomplish things - “because its not fair”.
"We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact.

American exceptionalism simply does not mean what 98% of people think it does, left and right, including this writer.
It isn’t people having high expectation of success in life like this bozo claims. It isn’t a national cheer, like some ignorant people use essentially claiming that America is exceptional and answers to some higher calling.
It simply means America developed as an -exception- to the way any other nation developed. It was founded on the individual as the standard of value, and that the government must rule only with the consent of the governed.
