1 yTo me, education is a structured system of learning—almost in the sense that a religion has its rituals and discipline help you develop a deeper appreciation for the material. It's like praying to God versus saying the Lord's prayer. The Lord's prayer is designed in a specific way to evoke specific feelings in your mind, body, and soul. In formal education, knowledge is built in a deliberate, cumulative way. One of its greatest strengths is that it doesn’t just give you facts—it teaches you how to learn and how to appreciate the fundamentals and the beauty of when things become more advanced. Take math, for example. The first thing you learn is how to count, and that deceptively simple act lays the groundwork for everything. If you truly understand and appreciate counting, you start to see how dynamic and flexible numbers really are. Or like music, where you practice scales over and over and over and they become the building blocks for masterpieces. That’s the beauty of a well-structured education—it gives you the tools and perspective not to take anything for granted, to think inside and outside the box.
04 ReplyAlso nobody remembers their first time leaening to count. You only remember the skill of counting.
I guess this was a deliberately nonsensical pretentious prompt to mimick what you perceive my posts to be.
@Insanitys I'm looking at your right now and I'm COOMING! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I'M COOMING, BABE! COOM FLYING IN YOUR FACE.

435 opinions shared on Education & Career topic. Educated specifically refers to college. Why because that is education. Not saying they aren't smart (I know lots of people who never went who are very intelligent and some people who graduated with high degrees not very smart) not skilled, (I know lots of people in various trades who are very skilled) but a well rounded formal education includes studies of things that the average person does not have, and probably does not need. But they spent the 4 to 8 years and the thousands of dollars to walk down that carpet and get their degrees and that is worth something, if nothing else the title of "educated."

Anonymous(18-24)1 yMeans formal education. A person who knows a trade is educated in that trade, but they don’t necessarily have a liberal arts education or a broad based foundation in science and technology (though they might; my parents’ handyman has a Ph. D. in microbiology).

Opinion Owner1 yMicrobiology must be really boring. People are always switching careers out of it. A lady my mom knows who ran a placement service for lawyers had a degree in microbiology, and so did the actor Ashton Kutcher (or maybe that was molecular biology).

AI Opinion
The term "educated" often implies formal education, traditionally associated with college or university attendance. This perception has historical roots where higher education was seen as a status of advanced learning. However, education is a broad concept, and learning can happen in many forms, including online courses, vocational training, and self-study. In today's world, the definition of being "educated" is evolving. Recognizing diverse educational paths, such as trades and online learning, reflects a more inclusive understanding of knowledge and skills acquisition. Your point highlights the importance of valuing all forms of learning in our society.

1 yIt's an outdated concept.
There was a time when attending a university provided you access to a whole culture of learning and exploration. It wasn't just that you were gaining knowledge and information. You were gaining understanding, which was basically a mental tool kit and a pedagogical structure that allowed you discern quality information and pursue further knowledge. Educated people were educated because they had learned how to learn, and think critically, and how to explore new ideas in a responsible fashion.
These days, higher education isn't instilling that academic discipline in people. They're just providing information, and even that is questionable at times. For the modern academic, saying that going to college means you are "educated" is mostly just a bunch of people trying to convince themselves that they made the right decision to go to college.

Opinion Owner1 yHave a good one mister grammar freak. I'll take my hat off for you that you manage your own language. You're SUCH an educated indivual. Never met someone as educated as you. 🤦♀️
Opinion Owner1 yI didn't have English in college you bafoon.
Whatever you say mister grammar freak.
Opinion Owner1 yPs. Yes you as an adult is responsible for how you behave not your parents. Even if you were abused. That is also something you'd know if you were a educated INDIVUAL (this also include being just slightly informally educated)
Opinion Owner1 yOh,. poor little bafoon trying to insult me. How cute. Is there something in life you don't fail at? Or you blame all your failures on your parents still?
Opinion Owner1 yOh how cute you little BAFOON.
Opinion Owner1 yEnjoy your English, that's the only thing in this world you'll ever be better at than me little bafoon. 🥰🥰😘
Bafoon!!!
Opinion Owner1 yI didn't get owned by jack shit you fucktard of a bafoon.
Had to go on gag to understand being formally vs informally educated. What a bafoon. No worries I blame your parents for failing you. Just like you do
Opinion Owner1 yAlso women keep on friendzoning you because you're the last thing they'd ever want.
Opinion Owner1 yOh poor little bafoon getting angry. How adorable.
Opinion Owner1 ySure you weren't mister unwanted by everyone.
Opinion Owner1 yOh poor little bafoon just trying to yell louder and louder. You're actually starting to bore the fuck out of me mister friendzone.
Don't want an uneducated bafoon who still blames his parents for his actions and cries about being friendzoned on Gag.
Like dude, you don't even understand something as simple as formal education informal education.
You simple minded angry little turd. Have a good one. Maybe one day you'll become an educated and a worthy indivual.
Opinion Owner1 yLol, it does mean a fuck all even if my English is not perfect but an actually educated (both formally and informally) would know that.
Now that you outed yourself (yet again) to be a completely uneducated individual, this will be my last reply.
Ps. You're still responsible for your failures, not your parents.
Opinion Owner1 yOh, you American!
THAT is why you're so uneducated! It all just clicked. That's why all you've managed to master the English language and failed and everything else!
Now I get it. I take it back, you being such an uneducated bafoon is not the fault of your parents but your nation.
Opinion Owner1 yNow that I stand corrected, I'm going again -cant risk being infected by the American stupidity.
Opinion Owner1 yLol, they the loser yet you had to block. You be the loser here. 😂
Opinion Owner1 yHILARIOUS! 😂😂😂
Not only are you an uneducated fool but you also be a coward. You really the perfect example of the trash that comes from the US. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😘😘😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Opinion Owner1 yOh little uneducated Murican trash can't handle is own shit. 😂😂😂😂
Opinion Owner1 yPs. I know you're an uneducated trash but there's more than just the American and the European continent on this earth. Consider yourself just a bit more educated than you were a couple of seconds ago. Everything seems to help with your kind. ,😂😂
(Ps now ready for my day and ready to be bored with the little angry troll until I've to leave the house) unless you'll be a coward towards me and block me as well while blaming your mommy for your failures.
Opinion Owner1 yYou can block me just like you blocked the other person you idiot.
Opinion Owner1 yWhy you just keep on showing how fucking stupid you are you American trashy coward?
Opinion Owner1 yI'm anonymous because I'm ashamed of interacting with the trash you are. Like dude, you be a coward blocking people because they say you should've used google instead of outing yourself to be this stupid of a mistake.
Opinion Owner1 yLol, if that makes the coward of American trash feel better about himself than I'll let you belief that.
Opinion Owner1 yAnd of course you belief in nonsense. A stupid god fearing coward.
Opinion Owner1 y🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢
Shouting how uneducated you are, yet again - shame you're to stupid to know how to block me like you block others as the little god fearing trash of a coward you be.
Opinion Owner1 yI don't belief in fiction written 1000 of years ago. I don't need fiction to tell me right from wrong. Hut I bet how someone as uneducated as you require such a thing to get by.
Now throwing race into this, like the proper American trash you are, but no you bafoon I'm not a black woman.
Opinion Owner1 yBut I see how someone as uneducated*
Need to help the bafoon, his English so bad that little mistakes make it hard for them to get by.
Opinion Owner1 ySure, I'd backtrack too if I was a god fearing jackass yourself. I see why you need God in your life, if I was as uneducated and as big og a coward as you, I'd maybe need it too.
Opinion Owner1 yLittle religious uneducated fool, no wonders you ask such stupid ass questions.
Opinion Owner1 yOh the poor god fearing coward still trying to backtrack. How cute.
Opinion Owner1 yNow try Google next time you've such an idiotic question. Don't be outing how stupid your kind is. You people are showing that enough as it is at the moment. Go pray to your God that he'll give you some of that IQ you so desperately need.
Opinion Owner1 yI understand it plenty, I'm not the one here asking what words actually mean. (You here asking what education actually is)
You projecting huh? Is that what is going on? That's actually awful how you view yourself.
Opinion Owner1 yOh poor little bafoon projecting because he doesn't know the word "education". How cute. It's your language dude, yet you don't know what it means. Talk about being a stupid MOFO.
Opinion Owner1 yI've given you plenty of answers, you're just to stupid to actually retain information and therefore you're as uneducated as you are. (Like really, you don't even understand what education means, that's how uneducated you are)
Opinion Owner1 yWow, I'm actually in shock. You know what a dictionary is! You actually laid your eyes on such a thing. Shame you don't know how to use it, you'd actually be able to learn about your own language: like what education means. But that would actually require you knowing HOW to use it, that you request me to do it for you, implies you don't know how to.
Which again explains why you don't understand what education is.
Opinion Owner1 yOh you just ignoring the fact that you're the one who's asking what a word means on here? A word in your own language you don't understand? How cute and cowardly of the god fearing trash.
Opinion Owner1 yNo wonders you're lashing into my English, it's the only thing you got going for you and yet again, you don't fully have it going for you, since you lack the knowledge about what certain words means in your language.
I get how it is easier to latch on to my English and the word bafoon rather than actually use that brain of yours. Maybe this is why you don't know simple things as what education means. Again this is a word in your own language, not your second or third but your first and probably only, and you still don't understand it.
Opinion Owner1 yYes, the definition being the meaning of the word you idiot. You don't understand the definition. Which is a foundation towards understanding the meaning of the word. There is no "logic" behind it.
You don't understand the word in your own language.
Opinion Owner1 yI think you need to look up on that dictionary and see what "definition" actually means. You just keep on shouting how fricking uneducated you are. It's starting to hurt.
Opinion Owner1 yAnd yes, you're asking about the definition (the meaning) behind a word in your own language because you lack the capability to understand it by yourself.
Opinion Owner1 yYes, that is how I feel about your lack of understanding when it comes to your own language.
Opinion Owner1 y"I understand the word, I just don't understand the definition of it"
Opinion Owner1 y🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥
That is the funniest shit I've ever seen.
Opinion Owner1 y"I understand the word, I just don't understand the logic of definition behind it" - sorry. 😂😂😂
Opinion Owner1 yNo wonders you blame your parents for your facilities. I'd do too if I couldn't even understand my own first language. You don't have to be formally (also knows as academically) educated to process knowledge and not everyone managed to be properly informally education - you're a proof of that.
Had you just had an ounce of successful academic education (this also includes lower education as elementary school, high school) then you'd at least be able to understand something as simple as "educated".
Opinion Owner1 yHow "blame your parents for your failures.
We've established that not only are you uneducated (both formally and informally) but your IQ is also below average. Since something as definitions is something you struggle with.
Opinion Owner1 yLol, my grammar can be iffy sure. My comphrendsion, is fine. You're saying you don't understand the definition behind being educated. You're admitting you don't have understanding for your own first language while pointing fingers at me for being flawed at my third.
Opinion Owner1 ySorry that you be called out for lacking understanding of your own language. That you lack the capability to understand the "logic" behind the definitions of it.
You're here asking for what a word in your first language means because your simple
mind can't understand the definition behind it.
Opinion Owner1 yLol, I actually asked people with RETARDATION what "educated" means and they understood more than you. 😂😂😂😂😂That's telling.
Opinion Owner1 yLol, try again. You're dumber than people with RETARDATION.
You blaming your mommy for raising such a failure.
Opinion Owner1 yHow does it feel being dumber than people with RETARDATION?
Opinion Owner1 yAnd it's cute how quick you're to reply. You just sitting with your phone in hand, desperately hoping for someone to message you. 😂😂😂
Opinion Owner1 yYou can definitely be dumber than a person with retardation - you're the perfect example of that, proven even.
Opinion Owner1 ySo how does it feel to be dumber than someone with retardation?
Opinion Owner1 y🫨🫨🫨🫨🫨🫨🫨
Opinion Owner1 yHow cute. You put your account on private for me.
The troll got owned.
Opinion Owner1 yOh we still there.
You still don't know your own language. 😭😂
It's all you got "hurh hurh you can't spell",.
Opinion Owner1 y"Educated" doesn't merely mean "went to college" but if you were an educated and knowledgeable person, you'd know that but it seems that you're dumber than those cognitively challenged.
- more you're faced with this information the more likely it sticks to you. It's pretty basic English you know. Or you should know.
Opinion Owner1 yOh, a racist bean brain. Still not black turd
Opinion Owner1 y"Educated" doesn't merely mean "went to college" but if you were an educated and knowledgeable person, you'd know that but it seems that you're dumber than those cognitively challenged.
Opinion Owner1 yLol, that would require you to be able to actually afford to travel but with how much of a failure you are, I doubt that will ever be something you get to experience.
Opinion Owner1 y"Educated" doesn't merely mean "went to college" but if you were an educated and knowledgeable person, you'd know that but it seems that you're dumber than those cognitively challenged.
- Repetition is good for your kind, it will assure that some of the information given might stick, and then next time you're confronted with same thing, you'll remember a portion of it until it sticks to your bean brain.
Opinion Owner1 y"Educated" doesn't merely mean "went to college" but if you were an educated and knowledgeable person, you'd know that but it seems that you're dumber than those cognitively challenged.
Just a reminder here.
Oh the dude can't come up with his own shit. Why do you keep on just repeating what I say, twitching it a little? You truly are cognitively challenged, lacking every single originality there is. Just a God fearing fuckturd. Go pray to your God and pray he'll make something out of you before it's to late. Grown ass man using words as "poopy pants" and not understanding simple fucking words.
Opinion Owner1 yI get why you wanted people to agree with you that you can blame your parents for your failures. I bet that is all you've ever experienced in life so far.
"Educated" doesn't merely mean "went to college" but if you were an educated and knowledgeable person, you'd know that but it seems that you're dumber than those cognitively challenged.
Opinion Owner1 yJust because idiots like you use it that way, doesn't mean it means just that you bafoon. 😂😂😂😂
Fuck sake you just killed me laughing here. ""I use the word this way because I'm ignorant, so that is all what it is!"
Opinion Owner1 yFucking hell dude. 😂😂😂
You just outed yourself here yet again you God fearing coward. Fuck fuck. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I'm done.
Opinion Owner1 y"Educated" doesn't merely mean "went to college" but if you were an educated and knowledgeable person, you'd know that but it seems that you're dumber than those cognitively challenged.
- you're getting there. Educated does not mean went to college. (I did tho + I'm both formally / academically+ informally educated)
Unlike you, who can only dream of such things.
Opinion Owner1 yWe're getting there.
"Educated" doesn't merely mean "went to college" but if you were an educated and knowledgeable person, you'd know that but it seems that you're dumber than those cognitively challenged.
There's hope it will stick. The bafoon will actually have learned something. It's a miracle. Maybe your God is around after all.
Opinion Owner1 y"Educated" doesn't merely mean "went to college" but if you were an educated and knowledgeable person, you'd know that but it seems that you're dumber than those cognitively challenged.
We're almost there.
Lol I already admitted that I didn't have English in college you dipshit. fucking hell bean brain. Get a grip and something new. We already settled this.
Opinion Owner1 yPoor little fucktard who doesn't even understand his own language is projecting his embarrassment over himself of me not excelling in my least used language. Like the true bafoon you are. No wonders you're a God fearing coward.
Opinion Owner1 y"Educated" doesn't merely mean "went to college" but if you were an educated and knowledgeable person, you'd know that but it seems that you're dumber than those cognitively challenged.
Omg if the media does so then that changes EVERYTHING. The word magically changed over night because bafoons like you don't know better!
Opinion Owner1 yDidn't have a major you egocentric fucktards.
No wonders you're this uneducated "I don't understand words, I go by what the media says instead of actually EDUCATING myself on the subject".
Opinion Owner1 yYou really thought you did something there huh? All you did was shouting how ignorant of a bafoon you are. Like dude...
Opinion Owner1 yAnd that is maybe WHY you asked but that is not WHAT you asked.
Perhaps you should also look into educating yourself about the difference in-between those two. But I'm starting to think you simply lack the knowledge on how to educate yourself on anything at all.
Opinion Owner1 yRight now I'm just spelling bafoon the way I do because I know it annoys the fuck out of you.
Opinion Owner1 yWe already settled my English isn't perfect. Get over it already.
Opinion Owner1 yNot American you dipshit (also something we had settled you little bean brain).
I'm sorry, you're agreeing with the media and how they perceive things, not I. If the media is stupid, then so are you dear. You're echo-ing the media not me.
Opinion Owner1 yGlad you can see your own stupidity finally
Opinion Owner1 y"Educated" doesn't merely mean "went to college" but if you were an educated and knowledgeable person, you'd know that but it seems that you're dumber than those cognitively challenged.
Closing in. I've gotten to the core, you're a media whore who can't use his brain outside of what they say, but we getting there. You're understanding that educated does not mean "went to college" as you claim.
And you males say we women think the world is mind readers.
Opinion Owner1 yWhy does "educated" mean went to college?
- this your question right?
Opinion Owner1 y"Educated" doesn't merely mean "went to college" but if you were an educated and knowledgeable person, you'd know that but it seems that you're dumber than those cognitively challenged. - here's the answer towards THAT question.
Read, understood and answered.
Opinion Owner1 yWe don't call people don't don't know a trade uneducated - also,. dude get a grip. A mistake in your own language. Talk about being an uneducated bafoon.
Opinion Owner1 y"what?"
Oh the bean brain ruined now. Doesn't understand what it does to you echoing the media without any thought for yourself? Because that is what you're doing here. C
Opinion Owner1 yWhy does "educated" mean went to college? -s your question
Answer is: it doesn't mean that.
"Hurh hurh the media says so! And I was thinking WHY they do that, therefore I ask why educated means went to college!"
Opinion Owner1 ySorry, I forgot merely - this changes EVERYTHING
Opinion Owner1 yI stand simply corrected about it all. You're right educated means "went to college" because the Murican media says so and the Murican citizen lacks the abilities to educate themselves. You're right, you win.
Opinion Owner1 yWhat the media says is the truth. You're teaching me that. No thoughts outside of what they say. Let's all be an uneducated bafoon like yourself.
Opinion Owner1 yYes, it means that college means "went to college" because that is what the media and you say. No independent thought required, just listen to the media.
Opinion Owner1 yPs.
Maybe YOU should learn - I'd say educate yourself but we've settled that it is impossible since that implies "going to college", reading comphrendsion - how to ask questions, as in people can't read your thoughts and will answer what is asked, not the intention behind what is being asked (which is nowhere made clear in above question). This is something I was already educated about how to do in elementary school, don't know if you missed that one by being to busy eating media up raw without any ounce of critical thought for yourself.
Opinion Owner1 yI used it, if you actually knew it yourself you'd not have issues. You're just telling on yourself. Or just realising that you're an uneducated twat, who doesn't know his own language or how to use it properly.
Opinion Owner1 yProbably the latter.
I think I'll just call this a wrap, you've realised you're an uneducated fool who parrots the media without any independent thought, were failed by not only your parents but also the early years of education.
Have a good one you god-fearing bafoon. I won. You lost. Bye bye turd.
Opinion Owner1 y👍👌
I won, you lost.
Opinion Owner1 yI won, you lost - get on with it. 💅
Opinion Owner1 yMaybe you've learned NOT to parrot the media as the holy grail of truth. But doubt it loser.
Opinion Owner1 yI won, you lost - parrot the media to someone else. Get over it.
Opinion Owner1 yYou're the incompetent one.
Parroting the media without any thoughts on your own, portraying how uneducated your kind is.
Opinion Owner1 y"if the media says something then that is how it is, I don't know how to use my brain"
I won, you lost, that's what you get from parroting the media like an uneducated fool
Opinion Owner1 yLol, yes you do. "The media says it is so, so that is what it means" - this is your argument you fool.
Opinion Owner1 yWhat a bafoon. 😂😂
Opinion Owner1 y"but but but but that is what the media says!" 😂😂😂😂
To me it means if you finished HS
