How dare you! 
I used to say the same thing to guys who "studied" finance. it's the disdain they carry for people who are off knowingly program and non-compliant with the neoliberal takeover of higher education.
as an older non-trad, people who were in school for some one-note ass discipline, chosen purely from some single-axis value proposition frame tell on themselves like crazy by how hard they are resisting education in favor of becoming credentialed / trained.
It's the ahegao sweatshirt
Back when I was in college, those were common enough where it's hard to take that fully as a joke. 
the rolling stones still popular?
it was always just the stembros that did the least work. the telling difference between engineers/chemists/mathematicians etc vs computer "scientists" was that we actually went to our lectures and labs lmao
It's because I was already being a huge nerd before mentioning it
The thigh high striped socks, skater skirt, off brand chucks, and blahaj were a strong indicator
I am a stereotype...it's over
Noooooooo noooo someone said this to me when they asked what I did and I'm just an awkward little critter noooooo 
Whenever the moon is full, it becomes very easy to tell who the CS majors are
It's because you behave like Sheldon from big bang
Many such cases. 
The only CS I majored in was Counterstrike 1.6
I'm a CS dropout, which is way cooler 😎
Fuck school. I wish I would have just studied humanities or something.

you and me both lol. Nothing worse than thinking about how I could've just been a librarian earning just as much money I currently am if I hadn't let my friends convince me I'd be broke for life doing library science....L L L L L L L
Damn being a librarian sounds amazing
For me, picking computers degree was more of a last minute drug induced binger than a serious premeditated decision. I just happen to be hanging with some tech bros (one is a socialist now, the other fully reclused himself out of existence). I got the degree easily in 4 years, but they both dropped out and are a billion times smarter than me. They got jobs instantly, but I desperately needed the degree paper because my resume was going to be a long list of waitress positions thrown straight into the trash can without it.
I mean it always made sense if you're trying to make a buck.
I've always loved tech and was really stoked to finally study it in college. I just couldn't find a way to help pay for college so my first year I got a paid internship doing development and a side gig doing retail. It was a life saver, but I also got super burned out doing school and working at the same time, and got to get disillusioned with the tech industry before any of my friends even made it out of college.
Are they a fascist or trans woman?
It’s been a while since yours truly was in college, but it was the unbridled contempt for the humanities. When I took the humanities GEs you just had to find the group that tried the least and actively showed disrespect toward the class. I could almost see their faces contort in disgust when I told them I was majoring in literature, right before they went on the usual spiel about how useless my degree would be.
I can relate to that experience.
The handful of self-described "STEM master race" people I knew on campus at the time, without exception, became (if they weren't already) some sort of chud, including going on to work for fucking military contractors and the like.
Most humanities are glorified and expensive high school classes. I had to pay over $1000 to take a class on how to write fucking emails. Most of the decent humanities classes are upper level while the general ones are dogshit scams. They’re all online nonsense too. If i wanted to read articles and watch videos I would do that for free without getting graded.
I could tell because you've pulled out your phone to show me old pictures of animals with dumb text on them that you found on reddit

looks down on non STEM major
but places himself on the same pedestal as engineers, mathematicians, scientists
