Well that's a great big thank you for looking after me isn't it?!

I've failed exams. The worse thing I did is a toss up between crying at my mum in a pig sty or getting very very very drunk.

What is going on with people?!

Mentality problems for this guy. Thats a horrific story.Cant believe he did that because of the pressures of failing his exams.
Think it may have been more than that but thats his excuse.Even so to stab someone 56 times for that is madness.

Stabbing someone 56 times is madness. Because you failed an exam is almost unbelievable I think. Very strange!

Wow!! Some people just can't understand that failure is a fact of life - or death in this case. It certainly shows that the guy wasn't altogether with it, in fact he could be said to be only 25 cents in the dollar. I have made a mental note not to offer accomodation to students -ever.

I think a nice rope around his neck would be the best cure for his actions!

It wasn't the words but the context that made me ask. Are/were you a vet or farmer in training, or did you just live in squalor at the time?

I'm neither. I was doing my A Levels. My parents have a small farm. They kept pigs

Although if you saw my bedroom at the time you could argue the squalor point!!
