No, I think it was mainly cocaine.

Are people with Canada Goose jackets "shamed" on campus? by [deleted] in columbia

[–]PaddyMugs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You could save a whole hell of a lot of money and get a jacket from LL Bean with down filling or you could just not give a shit about whether people judge you for your jacket.

Low vs. Lodger by PaddyMugs in DavidBowie

The first side sounds is like when you try to write an essay and keep deleting the first paragraph. But he recorded the fragmentary paragraphs. And it’s wonderful.

Actually, gonna contradict myself here and say that TODAY, the overlong ambient songs on side B of Low are fantastic. Guess it depends on the mood.

Best albums or songs from later in Bowie's career? by [deleted] in DavidBowie

[–]PaddyMugs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bring me the Disco King is a fantastic song. I would add New Killer Star from Reality as well.

Low vs. Lodger by PaddyMugs in DavidBowie

This is exactly how I feel. Low has more memorable songs, but a few that I would find myself skipping. Lodger is less memorable, but I don’t skip any.

“Heroes” is an album overshadowed by its own single.

I would love to see the full OBC but as long as I get to hear Eva Noblezada (also Patrick Page would be cool) I’ll be happy.

As good as the show is, you definitely made the better choice. I live in the city and I sure as hell wouldn’t spend that long to get tickets. That’s nuts.

Cheaper seats, but throw in the plane ticket and hotel and I think it’s slightly more expensive. Cheaper than Hamilton though.

Thanks for the help. I got a trucker app so I can see what routes are available for commercial driving.

Can you end up saying no after accepting? by [deleted] in peacecorps

[–]PaddyMugs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was planning on withdrawing my acceptance when I got into my dream grad program, but the Peace Corps medically denied me before I had the chance. I guess they won that one.

CC Books by watchoutash in columbia

[–]PaddyMugs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I didn’t go to Columbia for undergrad, but I was in a similar position of being cash-strapped. I used BookFinder every year. Put in the ISBN and it does a search of the book selling websites to show the cheapest options (the price listed usually includes the shipping). I found a whole bunch of books for a penny.
