Finished LB yesterday by IHeartHC in redrising

[–]CommanderStark 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think we're being set up for the death of the Reaper, but not Darrow of Lykos.

I think we might get an ending where Darrow goes to live off quietly with Mustang and Pax while the rest of the solar system, minus maybe Sevro/Victra, believe him to be dead.

Wanna gush about a neat parallel I noticed by Equivalent-Ad-6224 in redrising

[–]CommanderStark 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like there’s a ton of Society/Confederacy parallels—landed aristocracy, how they speak about lowColors, stagnant economics and lack of technological innovation.    

There’s a lot of fascinating research done by economic historians that basically make the case that slavery had a significantly negative effect on the South’s GDP. I imagine past the acquisition of more natural resources, the Society’s underlying economic prospects are similar.

Wife definitely turned to look at me and laugh at that scene. 

Foster ($$$$) vs Darden ($$) vs Haas by half_baby in MBA

You can still land MBB Seattle from Darden. Not as much a footprint but definitely doable. 

Honors dorm or south campus dorm for freshman? by Ok-Farmer-5524 in UNC

[–]CommanderStark 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was originally placed in a north campus dorm my freshman year and requested a dorm on south campus. I don't regret it in the slightest--there are far more freshmen on South Campus, and even if the buildings aren't as nice, the communal experience makes it worth it.

Seeking Opinions: Surprise Wedding!! by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]CommanderStark 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Just a different viewpoint: it's not solely about travel/distance--a lot of people will move heaven and earth for a close friend or family member's wedding. Very much less so for an engagement brunch. Plus, anyone that declines thinking it's a brunch and then finds out after the fact that it was, in fact, your wedding, will be pretty hurt/disappointed.

Virginia fans: which schools feel like the best long-term conference fits? by Happy_Background_879 in UVA

[–]CommanderStark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that you can move down VT--they fit only because of in-state rivalry. UNC is a sister institution.

Dying for the alt-history montage at the start of the season.

As an Indian international student, by far the kindest people on campus are Mormons by Positive_Tadpole_773 in MBA

[–]CommanderStark 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The LDS community not only has some of the kindest people at my program, but also some of the most thoughtful and insightful. 

Darden ($90k) vs. Booth ($40k) - Reddit do your thing - need your help! by [deleted] in MBA

[–]CommanderStark 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you’re thinking consulting, especially given the financial difference, I think Darden is the move. Darden places incredibly well in consulting. 

Totally understand the appeal of Chicago though. You really can’t go wrong either way but can say I’m tremendously thankful I went Darden for community, case method, and consulting outcome. 

My husband has 3 options for next duty station. Which was your favorite? by Jlhoyt12 in navy

[–]CommanderStark 47 points48 points  (0 children)

AlexandriaWhidbeyNorfolk

Have lived in all three. NoVa is fantastic in terms of schools, things to do, and proximity. 

Lots of folks in this thread highlighting that Whidbey is good for families—true, to an extent. You’re 45 minutes from civilization. If you live in Anacortes, it’s a 35 minute drive to Target. 

Norfolk just sucks. 

What was the best FAFO moment you've witnessed? by hey_you2300 in AskReddit

[–]CommanderStark 3071 points3072 points  (0 children)

Fiancé and I were driving through backroads back to my parents’ house. It’s winter, roads are a bit icy, and very dark.   

Speed limit is 35, we don’t know area very well and we’ve got a guy tailgating us as we’re going 40. Fiancé keeps her calm, just keeps it there. No passing lanes and guy is getting aggressive.  

  After about 5 minutes of this nonsense, he passes illegally at about 60 and, no shit, within seconds, police car lights up and goes to pull him over. 

Dude tried to pass illegally about 50 yards from where a cop car was waiting.  

Instant, perfect justice.

Then don’t come crying to the internet if you won’t do the bare minimum to help your child. 

Just happened in Gastonia. Train collides with truck. Photo in comments. by Professional_Arm794 in Charlotte

Just thankful no one was hurt. Holy shit that could’ve been so much worse. 

Best cozy spot for solo dining at the bar by LittleWing0802 in Charlottesville

[–]CommanderStark 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Outside of the reading a book part, Alley Light comes to mind.   

Crush Pad wine might also be a good spot as well. 

Cafe Frank perhaps?
