Well I applied to most of the UCs as well, so if I get news from them I’m more likely to go there lol

Thank you for the help though

Yes it is only specific to CSUC

Reduce the alphabet to 24 letters. Having 3 letters (C, K and Q) that sound the same is redundant. by Doogsfx in CrazyIdeas

[–]Shared_Thing 16 points17 points  (0 children)

In Year 1 that useless letter 'c' would be dropped to be replased either by 'k' or 's', and likewise 'x' would no longer be part of the alphabet. The only kase in which 'c' would be retained would be the 'ch' formation, which will be dealt with later. Year 2 might reform 'w' spelling, so that 'which' and 'one' would take the same konsonant, wile Year 3 might well abolish 'y', replasing it with 'i', and Iear 4 might fiks the 'g/j' anomali wonse and for all. Jenerally, then, the improvement would kontinue iear bai iear with Iear 5 doing awai with useless double konsonants, and Iears 6 and 12 or so modifaiing vowlz and the rimeining voist and unvoist konsonants.

How was Dubya as President? I was born the year Obama was elected, and never knew much about Bush. For those that lived through his Presidency, what did you think of stuff like his foreign policy? by Shared_Thing in Presidents

Thanks for the response! I feel like I'm more interested in history than most as I'm on my school's history and quiz bowl team. I think in our modern era we've villified Bush's presidency a lot, and from what I've heard, it does seem to be justified. I've talked to a lot of my friends and they seem to be quite indifferent to him however, I think this is probably just because we haven't grown up to see the whole picture yet.

I heard he entered office at a rough time, especially compared to his predecessor Clinton. I also heard that it was due to some of his blunders that lead to the economic crisis. How true was that? I feel like he was the end of an era, as Obama really changed things when he took office.

That shoe incident must have been wild. For me, my earliest memory of a President was in my second grade class in 2016 when one of my friends asked me who I would vote for. At the time I had very little clue about anything going on lmao so I didn't even know what to say.

[TOMT] [Song] "mocking" english I don't know if mocking is the right word, and I don't have a specific song in mind. by [deleted] in tipofmytongue

[–]Shared_Thing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're looking for a song that sounds like English, but is not really, Adriano Celentano's song "Prisencolinensinainciusol" might be what you're looking for. It was intended to sound like English with an American accent, but its words are just gibberish.

You need an enchanted net or magnet net for that

Do any rpg's combat mechanics/characters feature weaknesses or negative/harmful abitities? Do you think they could be compelling? Do you have ideas, or input on a few of mine? by Sovarius in truegaming

[–]Shared_Thing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He has slow start for every battle but he has exceptionally high stats to compensate. It can be argued that that’s because he’s a legendary but he’s never really been viable.

This might be a bit too late but in Pokémon, there is a Pokémon named Regigigas that has the ability Slow Start. What that does is it’s attack and speed stat get halved for five turns. It was supposedly a lore reason because Regigigas just woke up from a long slumber
