Agreed – after 10 years of working in as I do, (mainly evenings), It’s a common story. From my experience, the student culture encourages the discovery of individuality through various excesses, (namely alcohol). I find it sad that with the (supposed) acquisition of knowledge, our discovery of the “self” should be so narrow-minded. Whilst all things are good in moderation :), if this is the self-discovery and independence that being a student involves – I wonder where they will end up? There is much more, & with the right people, life should be just as “funny” regardless of the influence of alcohol or any other “substances”. No wonder my generation is responsible for the greatest cultural dumming-down in living history. I’ll save that rant for another time though!
Speaking about cultural dumming-down I make cartoons about talking milk bottles, but hey, nobody’s perfect…
If you comment, we will give you a free bottle of milk!

Disclaimer: Milk may be contaminated with by-products from industrial plants, hormones injected into the cow and other such nonsense. Not suitable for those that are lactose intolerant. Actually, we have no milk to give out so do not bother trying to get your free bottle, just comment, all right! And make it nice :-)
