Kids, this is nothing but lies. The only perk you get with an English degree is being first in line for the proofreading jobs at your temp agency. Unless you go to grad school, in which case you get to continue sleeping with the undergraduates you meet as a T.A,, but eventually even they dump you for being a sad cliche and you give up on getting your masters and you find yourself at age thirty-five looking into a career as an occupational therapist. We'd make a suggestion for what to study to get "all the jobs," but recent years have knocked law school, med school, and business school off that list. So your choices are limited to crime or the army. Or, the most badass job of all, Army Crime!

I am currently going to school as an English major and personally I find this comic just plain awesome! I don't know why Steve is so mad I come across so many people here in L.A. that have the mind-set of this man in the comic. I on the other had don't want to drop in with the other 80K people wanting to write screen plays and I person have no illusions of what my life will look like, I won't make much(I want to become a teacher), but I would rather help kids and make nothing than have this crazy mind set of awesomeness or Steve's hollow angry attitude. P.S. i hope everything is proper it's really late.

Ooo Steve, touchy touchy! can't you take a joke? I was an accounting major and work as an accountant and I hear jokes all the time. Most of them pretty damn funny! You remind me of the pompus, self-improtant TA I had in British Lit who took points off a paper I wrote for using "Willie" for William Shakespeare. He said "Show some respect". What a prententious tool! Does being an English major suck all the humor out of your brain?

@steve you are just angry because you were an English major dropout and your job at Burger King is shaky.

Before you tell someone that they aren't too bright, I suggest you proofread your comment. Your first word shows that you aren't too bright either. -

Whomever wrote the caption can't be too bright, as most English majors end up in fields like marketing, PR, advertising, etc. etc., which pay a fuck of a lot better than writing lame copy for this website.
