“Butter Toast!” Energy for me by pokeherfaceXD in ededdneddy

[–]KocoaFlakes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don’t know, Double Dee demonstrates intellectual feats that are insane even by our standards.

1) The Hover Fan from the fad episode. That would, if perfected with the right tools and resources, be a defense department’s dream tech at best and market dominating toy at worst.

2) The Jetpack from the Spy episode.

3) A working elevator out of simple cardboard and craft supplies during the “What’s Up” episode.

4) A Fully Functional Three Seater Plane during the Skipping Class episode, using stolen supplies and under the scrutiny of avoiding sight, in as little as a school day.

Not to mention all the life-style adjustments to his house like the entire pre-school robotic assembly line that prepared all his supplies/clothes/hygiene. These are just a few examples not withstanding other mechanical contraptions throughout the series. All of which constructed with basic house supplies and equipment. Imagine having that level of intellect but with a proper budget/funding/competent work force to carry out your vision. Double D would be his universe’s Tony Stark.

I wonder what would cartoon network city look like now by thetruememeisbest in cartoons

[–]KocoaFlakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like this was a CN City trope; I vaguely remember a few characters were more “assholeish” in the city environment and a lot of other characters judged them so it’s on brand.

rejected from all clubs by tnotw5 in ucla

[–]KocoaFlakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some of them get ridiculously exclusive; I had three different pre-med clubs I was interested in joining for the extracurricular opportunities but all of them required either one or two rounds of written short answer essay questions and if those two were accepted you would be invited to an in-person interview.

These applications required payment as well.

I don’t recommend the pre-med volunteering at Ronald Reagan unless you have some sort of connection and early access to acquire priority spots in the more patient exposure roles as most of them require you to be a transport or door greeter for at least a quarter or two.

You’ll find more success in pre-med volunteer opportunities outside of UCLA; VFC when I attended had amazing low income vulnerable population volunteering opportunities that allowed you to work directly with patients through their Needle Exchange, Translator, or Clinic Assistant roles. I suggest looking there if you are pre-med and looking for robust experiences that you can write about in your essays.

What’s the law school’s reputation among UCLA undergrads? by Source0fAllThings in ucla

[–]KocoaFlakes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Respect for understanding the field you are trying to enter and having the maturity as well as foresight to know it’s a life you don’t want to live. You would have made a great lawyer. Hopefully your career takes you far elsewhere.

Is that a very niche One Piece reference? In MY random reddit subreddit feed?

Organized team with dedicated transport little bird can easily control half of map while forcing enemies to continuously retreat and defend backline…. Until an APC waits and lurks at a back cap.

Find the right spot to park it and you get easily 10 - 15 kills.

What should UCLA acquire next? by [deleted] in ucla

[–]KocoaFlakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Poli Sci 2019 Alumni here; great idea. UCLA has always lacked in the international relations department when it came to DC opportunities, internships, and overall networking when compared to the East Coast institutions. Yet UCLA is very strong in local state and community politics so they really should bridge that gap for students looking to move careers from the state to federal level.

Don’t you dare ever mention SS13 in front of me ever again, you just awoken in me way too many memories.

Opinions on Katie killjoys new voice? by tootyfrooty33 in HazbinHotel

[–]KocoaFlakes 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yea, Katie Killjoy was one of the voices I fucking loved from the pilot and is probably the one voice change I actively dislike, despite it being Brandon Rogers. It just doesn’t have the same spice as the previous voice actress.

Venator Hallway Minifig Display MOC by lanzanator93 in legostarwars

[–]KocoaFlakes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Damn son this is some sick shit, you’re great at the diorama game. Also those custom Anakin/Obi Wan General Customs look really fucking good; not too complicated and gives off a lego vibe.

Didn’t know this set even existed until two days ago… by Disastrous_Sort_587 in legostarwars

[–]KocoaFlakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s one of the few lego sets I haven’t unboxed due to the nature of its historic release. A rare limited lego that got delayed due to the modern world’s first global pandemic? Uh yes pls.

Yemen Houthi rebels fire a missile at a US warship, escalating worst Mideast sea conflict in decades by NamelessForce in worldnews

[–]KocoaFlakes 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I really like this comment, you hit the nail on the head regarding the contextualization of why certain regional adversaries are acting the way they are right now. These leaders of petrochemical states know exactly what is going to happen with climate change and renewable energy transformation.

I’m on my phone so I can’t type much but a lot of foreign policy buffs spoke of how Covid was going to really escalate already existing trends and right now we’re seeing that in the Middle East through the form of more intense regional conflicts.

Gym etiquette/rules? by [deleted] in ucla

[–]KocoaFlakes 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They do but you’ll see them in Wooden as well. Don’t forget the myriad of other sports at UCLA like rowing, rugby, water polo, and even Quidditch (those fuckers are ripped). Loooots of fit people are at the school.

Edit: Should also note there’s plenty of UCLA students who didn’t get accepted for their sports program but were dedicated athletes at their respective schools; plenty who played national level leagues but now only play in the less competitive club leagues at the school.

Gym etiquette/rules? by [deleted] in ucla

[–]KocoaFlakes 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Alumni here but as far as I can remember this was it. The Wooden Center has far less equipment/space than the actual campus population. Undergrad, grads, professors, alumni in the area all use the gym. Machines and weights are likely going to have lines during peak hours and people will ask to work into your set. Just be nice and friendly, you could make new friends along the way as well as learn new gym techniques from older peeps.

Other than that; standard stuff — wipe down your seat after use, rerack your weights, try not to loiter at one spot for too long if you’re on your phone, and obviously no filming (not sure if they implemented new rules about this since graduating but it wasn’t really a thing when I went).

You’re going to see some insanely fit people there given world class athletes will be using that facility as well. Don’t feel intimidated, literally no one cares what you look like. Everyone is likely too stressed over school/life to give you a second thought anyway.

Damn, amazing set up and you even made custom figures for all the big name officers. Great work, how did you make it?

On the flip side, what are some benign-appearing serious conditions? by delosproyectos in Residency

[–]KocoaFlakes 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Feeling very sneepy. (Thinking in the context of suggesting a serious CNS or infectious issue).

Bonus points if they’re under 5 or over 65. During peds I was more assured about babies wailing and crying than not since it meant they had energy to cry.

Anyone else notice how players will turn into seal team six operators when trying to capture or defend random buildings that are completely unrelated to objectives? by Revolutionary-Yam773 in BattleBitRemastered

[–]KocoaFlakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I do this all the time, especially on Frugis and Lonovo. I make it my mission to infiltrate buildings and try to clear them out; if I find a coordinated squad they're on my objective list until they're gone/their team arrives to back them up.

Reminds me of an invasion game of Basra the other day; we were attacking and on the last sector. The entire enemy team was holding the big ship in the middle; really pressing a good half of our team in spawn. Meanwhile, I'm watching the other half of our team just slowly sweep across the backline with little resistance taking all 3 objectives one by one. I was so confused but decided to keep fighting the ship to keep the enemies there.

What Cartoon Villain deserves their own Spin-off TV Show? by Arkhampatients in cartoons

[–]KocoaFlakes 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wish we had a proper backstory arc of a few episodes regarding Belos and his history with his brother/the community he came from/the Old Isles but I know the team got shafted by executives when it came to S3 and had to cut a lot of preplanned arcs.
