LesbianRedwings
Imgur doesn’t like selfies/pics. Thank you!!!
moofv2
Ya I know but this should be a clear exception
tylerPumpkinTraveler
Not TECHNICALLY a selfie, and something to be super proud of. Congrats!
Gladbacher1976
HighSorcerer
Yep, the exception lies in the effort and achievement. Grats, OP!
therealZzzzz
Obviously not a selfie unless the OP has an extra 30’ long invisible extra limb. But hey, anything’s possible, right?

Pics/selfies on imgur usually get downvoted
ollikahn
yes, we don't like photos. but only of it's just a photo. if there's some nice story related to the photo — you good.
GrumpyOldMillennial
Yep. Major accomplishments, overcoming significant adversity, getting covid vaccine; These selfies are acceptable imho.
TheEvilCookieMonster
Cus some people are horrible. Pretty much it in a nutshell.
pr0nty
If you ask people to downvote, they're going to. It's annoying and passive aggressive, like vague-posting on Facebook.
FoodTastesGood
congratulations on reaching your goal.

My associates but only honors due to being unable to walk the first 2 semesters and getting D's those semesters bc I was always 30 min late
SlasherQuan
For class. Without those semesters it would have been Suma again. Bs in microbiology
Djchoragos
206 units?!
LesbianRedwings
Yes! XP I’ve transferred schools a few times. I know 4 coding languages! Haha. Each school was like no, you need this, those don’t transfer
analogguy
When I got my BSEE, the course load required was literally one unit shy of the requirement to be called a five year degree.
LesbianRedwings
Yeah, they did that at this school, where a couple classes are absolutely more work than 3 units, but they are only worth 3 units
analogguy
Not Cal Poly, is it?
Djchoragos
That drove me nuts!
