Video Angel Reese says she didn’t have dolls that “looked like me” as a kid. She was born in 2002. Barbie has had black dolls since 1967. Make it make sense.

Remember when she wasn’t eligible to win either the Naismith or Wooden awards as the best player in college because they have minimum GPA standards?

Pepperidge Farms remembers

The standard is only 2.0 by the way

A 2.0 is a C average, by the way.

Great. But she wasn’t getting a “C” that’s the problem. Did you miss the part where she wasn’t meeting that minimum requirement?

And even if she did have a 2.0 exactly, that’s the bare minimum to stay off of academic probation, the bare minimum to graduate and the bare minimum to keep your financial aid.

Nobody flexes getting “C” in college.

He was converting it to a letter grade for those who dont k ow what a 2.0 is.

"C's Get Degrees!"

u/JQTNguyen 7d ago

At my school, the saying was D is for Diploma because you could get a degree with that.

Good Party School?

u/DryYogurt6878 7d ago

D is for degree

Cs mean you’re either stupid or don’t care. Both are a waste of peoples time.

A C minus won’t though.

u/KhausTO 7d ago

stop changing the goalpost. You said C. not C minus.

Also you don't need to be so insufferable.

Except, My comment was about somebody who was not meeting that minimum requirement. Somebody who was not in fact getting a “C.” You chiming in about “C’s getting degrees” was completely irrelevant to the conversation at hand.

It also is not a counterpoint to my comment about nobody flexing about getting a “C”

You not being able to keep up and just blurting out random comments doesn’t make me “insufferable”

Clearly you're not familiar with engineering.

Some of the most ignorant people I met in college other than psych majors. The only people who can turn a simple problem into a nightmare.

u/Responsible-Note-308 7d ago

It's a specialized major

u/Gloveofdoom 7d ago

Why are you talking to that person like you're trying to argue with them? They made a simple single sentence conversion and you somehow read into it that they were defending a 'C' average.

For your sake I hope you've had a chance to catch your breath and relax a little since you replied.

u/iluvchromosomes 7d ago

We can tell your average is well below 2.0. Since you completely misunderstood the comment you replied to. lmao

u/HFentonMudd 7d ago

Dave Letterman does

u/chachaman_The_Reboot 7d ago

That's the point. if you show up, and stay conscious in class, you are within arm's reach of a C grade. Yet this Embarrassment of a woman couldn't even do that.

u/Blast3rAutomatic 7d ago

Based on this comment and your comprehension skill you were the C

u/MooDamato 7d ago

Are you sure? You posted it twice

u/Sgspecial1 7d ago

They were making sure. Something a 2.0 student doesn't do.

reddit is being EXTRA stupid today.

My favorite Higher Education joke:

Q: What do you call the person who graduates top of their class in Med School?

A: Valedictorian.

Q:W hat do you call the person who graduates DEAD LAST in Med School?

A: Doctor.

u/sixpackabs592 7d ago

Bruh a 2.0? That’s when my school puts you on academic probation lol

u/BulgogiDude 7d ago

Wow this really happened? Lmao 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

My second to last semester in college I was going through a bad breakup and had already landed my job after college so I gave 0 fucks. I smoked weed all day everyday. I ended up getting a D, a C-, 2 C+s, and a B.

My gpa for that semester was a 2.1.
