I'm currently doing an MLift in French Lifterature if that helps bro #benchlifteraturemorelike

History and French is a dece undergrad degree. #acareemia #MASSters

Why are you so angry about this? FWIW, I already have a degree and am now doing a Masters. I'm going to follow that with a PhD and then plan to stay in academia. You're going to notice that my post up to this point has been a good bit more civil than yours. Please don't allow that to leave you under the impression that I see you as anything other than a boorish, university of life attending dullard.

The research skills you get from a history degree stand you in good stead for any research-based job, and anything that involves bringing together a lot of resarch/data to come to come up with a coherently written and well argued report. This can apply to quite a wide range of sectors. With degrees like history, politics etc for most people it'll be about developing transferable skills and being able to demonstrate to employers that you'll be able to put them to good use in work situations. Comparatively few people will either remain in academia or get a job in a sector in which history as an academic discipline will be directly relevant, but it certainly increases your employability. Afterwards, how well you do with your career will depend on being able to demonstrate once in actual employment that you've actually gained genuine skills which you're able to put to good use.

J'accuse Jimmy of being upset.

Is that a callback to Kickback in 2010 or so? I think it might be. Really don't think he's as upset as the French authorities were when ma boi Voltaire published Candide. #satire #tolerance #leibnitzdiss #someboy

You seem even more upset than Edmund Burke after he read Thomas Paine's Rights of Man, Jimmy. #history #naturalrights #youseemupset

Worked in a whisky shop over the summer and now into it in a pretty big way. A couple I tried through work and really enjoyed were Tullibardine 228 burgundy cask and Tomatin's Cu Bocan expression. Also a big fan of Edradour and thoroughly enjoy a Laphroaig from time to time. Worst I've tried has been anything by Deanston, which is just very bland.

Did my undergrad at Stirling and loved every minute of it, currently doing a Masters at St Andrews and like it well enough but would have to admit that it's every bit as wanky as it's made out to be. I did French and History at Stirling and can definitely recommend the History department.

Currently getting back into proper training after breaking my arm quite badly in May through Muay Thai. Lifts moving back up and have started MMA (would've rather kept up with Thai but recently moved to St Andrews and it isn't possible here). One step back and all that. Some good advice on here and some proper broscience.
