Useless degrees

I"m really excited about starting my useless "degree".

I'm getting a post grad diploma in fine art, which means nothing, but the good news is I get to draw for a year.

And you will most likely pick up new skills, make new friends, broaden some horizons, perhaps become more confident, find a new direction. None of that is useless. (I know that you know that, but I just don't like the myth perpetuated, even in jest, that unless a degree is directly related to future employment, it's 'useless'. But that has, I think, all been debated upthread.)
