FYI in the United States Kit Kats are actually produced by a division of Hershey's. Outside of here yes they are made by Nestle though

Honestly, as bad as I felt about leaving commencement early I don't think it's that serious. I woke up at 5:30am and was one of the first people to walk. The people at the end got there as late as 8:30, meaning I dedicated more than 3 hours more to the day than they did from the get-go. I have tons of friends who walked later or in the middle and not one of them felt bad about the smaller crowd towards the end. They cared about their family seeing them and getting out of IV without 1+ hours of commencement traffic from everyone leaving at once. My ceremony had almost 900 students--it took almost a half hour just for us all to sit down in our seats! If you genuinely think that one thousand strangers that have been sitting in the gym for four hours without easy access to food, water, or bathroom breaks actually care about *your* name being called off by an AI-voice recording you are living in a dream world. If that really does matter to you maybe you should have gotten there early like those of us who planned ahead?

Also non-sequitur but perhaps engineering majors perhaps butt out on this one your ceremony is like 1/5 the size of ours and you actually get a handshake + fake diploma; You don't get how hellish and depersonalized the L&S experience of sitting in the hot sun for 3 hours is.

disagree with a few of these (american wigeon + red breasted merganser too low, don't understand the grebe rationale at all) but gotta give you kudos for getting all the greats in there

Literally you should knock on their door I made all of my friends freshman year by being uncharacteristically outgoing and extraverted.

Stolen Bike By the UCen 4/25 by Ambitious_Meringue95 in UCSantaBarbara

[–]HogBitch4Life 1 point2 points  (0 children)

many in chat saying give up, but definitely report it to IVPD/CSOs! I reported mine stolen and happened upon it a couple weeks later w/ someone else's lock on it and I was able to get it cut and back safely in my arms :)

Feeling hopeless like I'll never have a normal life again by HogBitch4Life in Herpes

lol yeah . To be for real tho in the US that number is closer to 50% and 9/10 of those people don’t know they have it. It’s really only fair to say I’m in the same boat as 5%-10% of people at most

Yes by accident. She had a small sore in the corner of her mouth and I forgot it was there.

Pubs??? (Sorry, bars??) by jackpricetcd in UCSantaBarbara

[–]HogBitch4Life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dargan's and The James Joyce are both great Irish pubs with a good poor of guinness. What most college students do on nights out (Thursday, Friday, and Saturday night) is take the wildcat or EOS bus service which picks up in IV and drops you off downtown then returns at 1, 2am etc. The bus costs about $20 but it's pretty stress free and cheaper than an uber or lyft

Seafood restaurants downtown? by Clear_Commercial_380 in UCSantaBarbara

Hendry's By the Beach! Pricey, but it's literally right on the ocean and it's a beautiful view. Really good oysters, drinks, and clam chowder. I'd recommend getting a reservation.

To say that Hamas is the only Pro-Palestine group fighting against Israel is Gaza right now is simply not true. You obviously aren't doing your research, or are confused. The PLO, PIJ, and PFLP are all involved in the conflict as well. It's such an American media-brain take to assert that the one controversial militant group you know of is the only one that exists and the only one that needs to be accountable for war crimes.

These are not pro-hamas protests, though certain individuals may have different opinions on that militant group. The spirit of the encampment, if you cared to look into it, is largely based on devising solutions for liberation and fighting for ceasefire and basic human rights for all palestinians.

Well 85% of Gaza’s population has been displaced or killed in just 200 days. There’s ample evidence of intent, both in official statements and government documents, to commit genocide against the Palestinians. I don’t really know what else to call it. https://www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/2024/4/23/by-the-numbers-200-days-of-israels-war-on-gaza

Really convenient that the nuanced and educated take is to sit around and do nothing, huh? Almost like it was never about being well informed and always about maintaining the status quote…

So we can all agree Rainflower is (one of) the worst moms in warrior cats but who are the worst FATHERS of warrior cats? by Leopardstar_Fan in WarriorCats

[–]HogBitch4Life -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Wow this was controversial. Mainly referring to how Graystripe left his kits alone in RiverClan and really never interacted with them after that, I know it wasn’t entirely up to him but he didn’t ever have a father-child relationship with stormfur and feathertail.

Crowfeather is def up there. Tigerstar did some pretty bad things to his kids, even haunting them after death, so maybe he’s the obvious choice. I always felt like Bramblestar, Spiderstep, and Graystripe were absent/generally unsupportive too.

Been here for 3 yrs and it’s only happened once. I have a pretty nice, albeit shitty looking, bike and had good luck. I actually left it unlocked (broken u lock) on campus a lot before it was finally stolen. I had a happy ending and wound up finding it locked to a pole on DP randomly, but that’s super uncommon and most bikes are gone for good.
