LJ-style whining

This topic is boring and I don't care, this topic is boring and I don't care...

Discuss the moral validity of Vancouver's safe injection sites. Fuck, could we do something at least slightly morally contentious? Maybe the legalisation of drugs, hummm? But nooooooo, we had to do an issue that very carefully avoided any issues other than purely medical.

ARG, I've done all the reading but I've written nothing. Not. One. Word. And I don't want to. You know why? Because I don't care. Wasting time and brain power on this issue is just that, waste. If anyone were to bring this issue up to me verbally, I would casually dismiss it because of it's inherently simplicity. If the person were to really push, I'd address any of their concerns quickly and succiently so that we could get off this boring and easy issue. It's not even a dilemma, why are we doing this?

It's my fault for taking a basic moral issues class. But guess what? There IS NO ADVANCED ONE. How am I supposed to have respect for a field in which I think almost the entirety of an undergraduate in Philosophy should have been learned in HIGH SCHOOL. I mean, our public education system blows so that doesn't happen, but it easily could have. I don't believe there is a single undergraduate Philosophy class - with the possible exception of a history of philosphy class (which would be hard just because of the impossibility of actually knowing all of history) - that would challenge me.

Therefore I get low grades, because I don't care. I'm getting over 90% in all my other classes, yet this is the easiest. This happens every term, maybe eventually I'll learn to not take easy courses...
