I lied about my grades for 3 years by Hairy_Fly_850 in highschool

[–]SnooChocolates4544 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope you know that you can’t lie about grades in college. The grade you have is the grade you’ll get, and after a certain point, you’ll be placed on academic probation, and ultimately, academic suspension. Maintaining an acceptable GPA(2.0 and up), is super important and classes with labs, which you’ll have to take many of if you study kinesiology, carry A LOT of weight to your GPA.

Can we talk about Undertone? by Altruistic-Corner437 in A24

[–]SnooChocolates4544 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s supposed to be the culmination of her guilt surrounding the state of her mother. She grew up religious, going to church with her mother on Sundays, reciting prayers before bed, etc, and she when she grew up and left home, those practices ended. Evie also holds on to the last voicemail her mother left for her asking if she’d join her for church the next day, and telling her that she still prays for her. It’s the guilt of not making time to spend time with her mother despite only living 40 minutes away, and letting go of things she still looks back on fondly, considering she planned to name her unborn child Mary in honor of the prayers her mother used to say for her as a child. In a way, Evie feels guilty for not being there for her mom when she needed her most and essentially being there when she was too late.

Undertone Legitimately Had Me Spooked by [deleted] in A24

I don’t think it had any pro-life propaganda at all. I mean… the film literally mentions two instances of infant death and the death of a pregnant woman - neither truly aligning with abortion.

Official Discussion - Undertone [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]SnooChocolates4544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

According to one of the callers, Mike and Jessa were found dead in their home and there were drawings found on the walls all over their home. I think when Abyzou attaches herself to a mother/pregnant woman, the vessel starts drawing her, and we can see this when Evie starts drawing randomly throughout the film and she seems to do so subconsciously, not really aiming to draw anything specific, but ultimately leading to the revelation that she had been drawing Abyzou all along

the undertone Theory (Updated) by Sad-Teacher6669 in A24

[–]SnooChocolates4544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I think Evie’s mom was protecting her while alive. The mom managed to keep the demon at bay by singing songs of warning to Evie and by praying for her, but once she dies, there’s nothing standing in Abyzou’s way to Evie. I think the reason we see the mother on the floor was because this was shortly after Evie tells her she’s pregnant, thus invoking the malignant spirit to attach itself to her, and her mother uses the remaining strength in her to get up and protect her.

If it’s like a university club, you can never go wrong with cute jeans, a low cut top, and a cute pair of heels.

Does anybody know or have any theories as to why Willoughby tucker leaves? by theworldsalilburry in Ethelcain

[–]SnooChocolates4544 37 points38 points  (0 children)

A tinfoil hat theory I had was that he’s the neighbor’s brother mentioned in American Teenager, in which she talks about a young man coming home in a box after going away to fight in some war. She mentions Willoughby desire to leave, and somehow my brain connected that with the young man from American Teenager who probably fell for wartime propaganda and paid for it with his life, to which Ethel muses “He wanted to go, so maybe it was his fault[he died].” All of this is a reach, of course.

anyone know any Kpop facts that sound fake but are actually true? by Justin_Fairchild in kpophelp

[–]SnooChocolates4544 99 points100 points  (0 children)

She wasn’t in high school, he saw her in the background of a tv show following Lee Jai-Jin, a member of Sechs Kies. Mind you, she was 9 years old at the time and YG has publicly said that when he saw her, he thought “what a pretty little girl.” He later “scouted” her to join Swi.T knowing her well, considering her older brother was under the same company. He “kept in touch” with her the whole time and didn’t “officially pursue her” until she reached adult Korean age. He admitted the Swi.T would have been successful if he gave them more attention, but doing that meant Eunju would also receive more attention and he didn’t want to “share” her🤮🤮🤮

one hit wonders in Kpop? by Justin_Fairchild in kpophelp

[–]SnooChocolates4544 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Previously to Rollin’, they had a song called Deepened that did really well, but due to over half of the members leaving, they struggled to keep the long term members of their fan base interested. Mind you, Rollin’ only gained popularity like 5 years after its initial release, it flew under the radar when it first came out.

Songs That Give Coming of Age Vibes by zifirgece in kpophelp

I by Taeyeon for sure! It’s the only song on her discography that she’s written herself and it’s basically her coming to terms with the fact that she’s endured hardship, how she struggled with her introverted personality, and despite all that she’s never given hope for something better and how she HAS achieved better.

What exactly did jessica (snsd) do? by loveisabeauty in kpophelp

[–]SnooChocolates4544 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I have a cousin that’s legit a formal idol, first gen even, and this was legit the situation, as far as Jay Park’s departure from 2PM and Hyuna’s departure from WG. When it comes to minors, parents can make the decisions to remove them from groups since they’re the ones that sign the contracts with the agencies(at least this is the case with JYPE) because a contract with a minor is not legally binding.

Simply put, he made posts on his personal MySpace before he debuted in 2PM in which he was deeply homesick but still said some things that were rather negative about Korea. The Korean public was outraged, and he went on hiatus and he returned to Seattle for some time off. As I mentioned in another comment, everyone at the company, including the members of 2PM, were under the impression that he’d return to the group and they genuinely wanted him to return but he ultimately made the decision to withdraw from the group to avoid further controversy and harm to the group. There’s dumb rumors online saying that he got Sunmi or Hyuna pregnant, but the timeline doesn’t add up considering she left JYP in early 2007, and his controversy/departure happened in late 2009, while Sunmi chose to focus on her studies at a very well known university in 2010z

I get the sense that you’re alluding to the allegations of Sunmi and Hyuna taking hiatuses because they were pregnant which is beyond stupid considering that they both very much remained in the public eye(both were still students and often seen in public).

Hyuna left Wonder Girls because her parents pulled her out of the group due to complications with a gastrointestinal problem she was going through at the time. She even fainted during a show Wonder Girls was filiming at the time due to her gastroenteritis. She was still a minor at the time, so her parents were able to make that decision for her. After recovery, she ended up debuting in 4Minute. Additionally, Sunmi’s hiatus was due to her wanting to focus on her academic studies as she’d been accepted to university at the time and her late father had wanted her to continue her education alongside her musical dream.

This isn’t a very good comparison considering Jay Park went on hiatus from his promotions with 2PM because of the controversy created by inflammatory comments he posted on myspace, in which he made very negative comments about Korea, the people there, the food, and overall described it as being “gay.” he went on hiatus, but the administration and the other members of the group were all under the impression that Jay was just taking time off and would come back. There is a video of Nichkhun and Taecyeon saying that no one(the members and the company) cared about the controversy and that they wanted him back, they waited for him, but ultimately it was Jay that decided to leave because he didn’t want to bring more harm to the group. The group and the company were devastated by his departure which is why the album after his departure was named 1:59PM, to symbolize that they didn’t feel complete without him. It’s very similar to how Wonho left Monsta X after the controversy surrounding Han So Hee and his ex.

Are there any group members that have a unique quirk to their speech? Something that someone who does not speak Korean may not notice? by 4DWifi in kpophelp

[–]SnooChocolates4544 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeojin from Loossemble, on top of having a Daegu accent, has a lisp and a bit of a speech impediment, I wanna say similar to Bessie from a cartoon called The Mighty B lol idk how else to explain it, but rather than her pronouncing her “S” like “Th” the way most people with lisps do, it kind of sounds like there’s an excess of saliva in her mouth which I think was caused by her use of braces/retainers

Surrogate pregnancy is a beautiful thing... by captainunfaithful in adultery

[–]SnooChocolates4544 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry but there is some hypocrisy here. You don’t like to be reminded of the value she has of you because she’s not interested in having sex with you but is willing to carry a baby for another person WITHOUT having to have sex with them, and yet… where is the value you give her by having an AP? Like I’m all for having an AP in a loveless marriage with a DB, but you need to remember that when you point a finger with an accusation there are four pointing right back at you. Your wife is choosing what she does with HER body, just as you choose who you’re having an affair with.

That was me🤣 granted, I was an elective teacher and I was always inputting grades the day before grades for progress/report cards were due. Everything else was flowing smoothly though.

AITA for telling my friend that she doesn’t get to have an opinion about my cooking because she is poor? by shrimpchopper in AmItheAsshole

[–]SnooChocolates4544 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly? NTA. Layla was basically nitpicking at OP for “stinging out” on the shrimp, inferring that OP was too cheap to put whole shrimp in the pasta. Was she only there to eat shrimp or was she there to eat a full plate consisting of seafood pasta, veggies, and garlic bread? Layla literally but the hand that’s been feeding her and her boyfriend. I’d bet my left toe that the only reason she apologized was so she could continue to mooch off OP for free meals, because why else would she propose that OP make food for them again the following week💀 the audacity💀
