ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH!

A rant, to be sure:

I am currently working on a research proposal that asks me to come up with at least a dozen research articles on my topic. I am with a university, so I have full access to some of the premier journals in the country, including the vast ERIC database.

However, at this juncture, I am fuming like Dick Cheney after being told he cannot invade Iran.

As a student at University, I must say I should be given free access to any fucking journal I require to do my research. I have found an crap-load of potentially good material, but what do I run into?...oh, yeah...sorry...this is only available via an abstract.

A abstract? Why not pick you nose, and flick the big whopper in my face!? What the fuck good is an abstract when dealing with a University professor?????

As a student I should be able to get any article from any professional organization for free. Period. Not pay $32 for some research from the organization's website. This is total horse-pucky. It's not not like the research is from even 2005...it's old enough it should be online.

I did not and will not pay for this research and I am fed up. I am turning in what I have and shit be damned. I'm a jackass enough to include a list of things I could only get abstracts of just to show I have a good 20 sources I COULD HAVE GOTTEN.

Fuck me.
