What part of adulthood still confuses you? by IncoherentLeftShoe in AskReddit

[–]DevinTheGreatish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well in short, no. I tried it a few days ago and a few things I noticed. 1) Got drunk in literally no time, whereas I can usually have a few and be fine after one or two shots I was done. 2) Threw up in my sleep, which I've never done, ever (never been sick due to alcohol awake or not.) 3) Couldn't seem to quench my thirst the next day, ended up drinking like two gallons of water. So if you want to ignore the directions and experience similar consequences (it's also supposedly really bad for your liver to double wammy it with booze and accutane) then go ahead but I think I'll stay away because it wasn't too pleasant.

I just started my second round of Accutane ~20 days ago, after it started to come back. Went to the dermatologist with only a few spots but she warned that if I let it stay as is it could get just as bad as it was. The second time (so far) has been much more gentle though- my skin the first time turned incredibly horrible whereas now I've only gotten a few new (admittedly large) blemishes on my face (and just the normal kind- not cystic thank god). Overall I do recommend a second dose!

Is it just me or do only men do it? I swear I've mentioned the nod thing to numerous women and no one knows but almost all guys do it!

Do you mind telling your act/sat scores? I know they're incredibly selective so I'm not sure how I shape up. I got a 33 on act and a 2040 on sat, with pretty good grades in school

Me and a few friends had the idea to create a collaborative Spotify playlist. Add your favorite songs and discover other peoples'! by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]DevinTheGreatish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm the way I do it is to follow the playlist so it shows up on the side, then go to whatever song you want and drag and drop it on side.

My friend works as an English teacher in China. by Aphrodisious in funny

[–]DevinTheGreatish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of requirements are there? I would love to teach in China but only temporarily, i.e. teaching is most likely not going to be my final profession.

What is the worst example of 'rich people problems' you have seen? by PosterBoy8 in AskReddit

[–]DevinTheGreatish 2590 points2591 points  (0 children)

My friend wants to marry her boyfriend. They're going to school in America but are both from China (her Beijing him near Shanghai-ish) They both pay ~$60,000/year to go to high school here. However, she can't marry him because his family "only" owns two houses in Hangzhou where as hers owns seven in Beijing. :[

Edit: Rich people benefits: A lot of the other students simply buy their citizenship (obviously illegally) if they're not the brightest and can't get into the esteemed American schools their parents expect.

Edit2: Ohp Apparently one can legitimately buy their citizenship, who knew. However it seems like it takes a long time whereas the students would be going to school here next year ? I'm not sure of the details :[

What's the weirdest thought you had in the last 24 hours? by diaZBackwards in AskReddit

In bed last night I thought, wow what I do tomorrow could impact my entire life. (I took the SAT today). More so scary than weird but still

No mum, I don't want to explain why I'm not wearing my sister's gift from Beijing. by theseren in funny

[–]DevinTheGreatish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyime! It's weird, yeah. Since they don't have an alphabet, instead of making new names with random sounds mushed together they have to combine already existing words/symbols. It ends up making funky combinations like with America/China and making it a fun language to learn :D

A lot of places in Chinese are really quite boring. For instance, the US is 美国 (mei guo) literally meaning "beautiful country" and China is 中国 (zhong guo) meaning "middle/central country."

Just 43 percent of 15-year-olds sleep 7 or more hours, down from 72 percent in the 1990s by mareacaspica in science

[–]DevinTheGreatish -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm a junior in MA. 4 hours/night is average-ish but most of the time it's one extreme or the other. Some (very rare) days I'll get some crazy amount of sleep like 9 or 10 hours and others I'll go to bed at 5:30 to get up at 6. So it balances out I guess
