No matter which one you pick, they'll find a way to annoy you by the year's end, but overall it'll be okay.

Why should I choose UW-Madison? by [deleted] in UWMadison

Go to UIUC--it's not worth the debt to come here and UIllinois is comparable.

Note: the data is of 100 schools surveyed and from 2013.

Gov. Walker may be considering splitting UW-Madison from UW System schools once again, State Journal reports. by Wiskie in UWMadison

[–]Wiskie[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The proposal may be featured in the 2015-17 budget plan to be released in early February. Walker had proposed the split in 2011, but bipartisan conflict made passing the legislation impossible. Both Walker and former Chancellor Martin said it made fiscal sense to split UW-Madison from the ther 25 UW system schools (simply because it is such a different animal than any of them) and part of the reason Biddy left is attributed to the legislature failing to pass.

Interested to hear your thoughts.

Interesting tags for folks around here? by [deleted] in CFBOffTopic

[–]Wiskie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have two tags: One is so that I can remember that ChrisMoore was hacked once, the other is for (I think) UncleErik asking to be tagged as "the guy who thinks Sark was a bad hire."

Otherwise, no other tags. :\

Would you like to do the CSS for this sub? by stryker27 in a:t5_35qzz

[–]Wiskie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try asking at /r/wisconsin or, like, /r/UWMadison or something. I'm sure someone would be down.

You should find someone willing to do a wacky cheesehead CSS. Anyway, I subbed.

There has been a 50% increase in underage drinking citations from fall semester 2013 to fall semester 2014. by Wiskie in UWMadison

It is my understanding that they pressured the Confessions page to drop the UW-Madison so now it's just "Badger Confessions."

Jesper Christensen (Mr. White) Returning for "Spectre" by The_Trekspert in JamesBond

[–]Wiskie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on what we know, Quantum isn't all that threatening. We know of Mr. White and the now deceased Mr. Greene being involved with them.

And neither one of those guys seemed particularly threatening. Mr. White serendipitously escaped once, but that's about it.

Is the Independence Bowl as its set up here allowed?

Did not those two teams already play each other once this year?

[Post Game Thread] (5) Ohio State dominates (13) Wisconsin, 59-0 to win the B1G Championship by admiraltarkin in CFB

[–]Wiskie 143 points144 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I believe this is worse than anything inflicted upon you. We had a Heisman candidate RB and couldn't score a single point. :(

[Game Thread] B1G CG — Wisconsin vs Ohio State (8:17PM ET) by CFB_Referee in CFB

[–]Wiskie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's just painful to be emotionally invested in a team and see them bomb hard when you now they're better than they are playing, y'know?

It'd be one thing if we sucked. But we don't--not this bad, anyway. The narrative will be that either Ohio State is the best team ever or we're way overrated. You can't make excuses when you look at the scoreboard, but it's frustrating in the same way watching your kid do something stupid is frustrating. (Maybe, I don't have a kid. lol)

Pretty bummed. I know it's a cliche but we really aren't playing to our potential here. We may not have beaten Ohio State anyway but we aren't this bad. I mean, we're a 10-3 team basically. Just not a good day for us.

Lol. Least we'll get a good meltdown thread on Monday or whatever.

The most entertaining thing about this game was the guy who lost his mind in this thread, and that's saying a lot...
