I picked the one engineering discipline most useful to society and not dedicated to the sole purpose of treat making……

I WAS TOLD I’D BE A FUCKING BEAVER BUILDING DAMS BUT I’M MORE LIKE A FUCKING BUREAUCRAT EDITING WORD DOCUMENTS FOR TYPOS WHAT THE FUCK

EVERYWHERE I GO, ITS A BULLSHIT JOB. ENGINEERING IS THE MOST USELESS LIB INCREMENTALIST BULLSHIT OUT THERE.

KILL EVERYONE WHO SAYS ‘YOU SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN USEFUL DEGREE IF U WANTED MEANINGFUL WORK AND HIGH PAY.’

PROGRAMMING GATCHA GAMES IS NOT USEFUL U FUCKING NERD

even if you did marry in, you’d never be accepted as one of them, you’d be an eternal outsider

I mean for me personally, I literally would only want the money. The lack of acceptance from shitty rich fucks would be a good thing.

LOL the money wouldn’t be for you. Except in the divorce settlement, and they’d require a pre-nup anyway.

We humans are social animals, we crave acceptance into the ingroup. Being in the outgroup all the time with only your husband to include you would be misery-inducing. Plus he’d be creeped out by your family and wouldn’t want to be around them, even though you want him and your children to be a part of them. He’d say they’re a bad influence on his children and he’d probably be right.

Lotta assumptions here about what a hypothetical relationship between me and an unreasonably wealthy person would look like, almost none of which are true.

For one thing, I wouldn’t marry a rich fuck unless they were a class traitor. Full stop, I wouldn’t be able to deal with it otherwise. So we would certainly have non-rich friends and the relationship would absolutely not be me as a house spouse never seeing anyone except my partner and rich people who hate me. Second, there is zero chance of me ever having kids. I will never reproduce and have taken steps to ensure that, in fact, I physically cannot. Third, we’re jumping straight to my hypothetical spouse being a man. Why? Women and enbies can also be rich, you know.

This is all super silly, of course, I’m never going to marry a rich person, because I’m in a very happy relationship with a great human being who I love a lot and also because rich people tend to marry other rich people. I wouldn’t have even bothered responding except for all the, dare I say patriarchal, assumptions you’re making about me.
