I consider myself relieved from my duties.
Louched Liver
You did your
job too well.

I always thought it would be neato if Sixer had the ability to highlight our mistakes in red and leave notes.

Louched Liver
That's a lot
of red on my
soul.
sixela
You know I only care about unintentional spelling mistakes.

Ahhh, recruiting college students to participate in research. I remember it well.
The frustration.
The "Duh" factor
The realization that your results might be skewed because the sample of peeps is made up morons who participate because they're too stupid to pass without the extra points.

WHAT A PAIN IN THE ASS!!!

Actually, I kind of like it when they wear too much makeup.
Louched Liver
W/out too
much clothes.
sixela
Too much cloth, too many clothes.
