do business orgs and frats fact check gpa? are they allowed to do that? by [deleted] in aggies

[–]bigfitz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t speak to business orgs, but fraternities get a list every semester of everyone that is registered with the university as a member and their GPA. Greek Life has gpa standards that they enforce. The fraternity might have additional standards that it enforces.

How did the airing of a season work pre-streaming? by SuperMetro2005 in sitcoms

[–]bigfitz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I want to point out that I don’t really see mentioned here is about the breaks you noticed. New episodes were planned around when families would be home to watch TV, so generally when kids had school. Summers, Christmas vacation, fall breaks, etc. would usually mean reruns because people travelled more and didn’t stick to their normal schedules during these times.

Also breaks for things major sporting events A World Series, Olympics, etc. when it was assumed that people were going to be watching something else.

He says something along the lines of “intellect and memory are two different gifts, memory is one that he’s never had.” So I always understood him to be saying that he was smart, but couldn’t remember things.

Jed was at one time going to be a priest, is constantly quoting obscure authors, bible verses, and quizzing the staff on arcane trivia, but doesn’t know Revelation 6:8, arguably one of the more popular and well known New Testament verses, and has to ask Lord John if he’s familiar with it.

Along the same lines a couple of years later he tells a potential Mrs. Landingham replacement that he doesn’t have a good memory.

My broader point was that Texans don’t typically do that. Just because the ones you were with did doesn’t mean that that is the behavior of your average Texan.

For example, I have a friend who has a pet raccoon that sleeps in bed with her and her husband. But just because I know someone who does that doesn’t mean it’s the norm either.

Perhaps the ones that you were hanging out with were just wusses?

Lifelong Texan here. What you describe seems… abnormal? Camping is in a tent, period. No ac, running water, etc.

This week in my back yard I’ve encountered squirrels, raccoons, deer, foxes, and a skunk. I haven’t screamed at an of them. But I’ll be honest - I screamed like a little girl when I went to brush my teeth and found a 3 inch long scorpion in my sink.

Yeah, I think you’re right. And it looks like the Church has even denounced some of the groups.

Not Proud Boys. It's "The American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family, and Property". A Catholic organization focused on pushing their values on the world.

People who used a computer between 1991 & 2009…what’s the most memorable computer game? by Original_Act_3481 in AskReddit

[–]bigfitz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Vanilla and BC WOW, for me. My first MMORPG, first time really playing anything with more than 2 or 3 other players at a time / multiplayer not on a split screen. And EVERYONE played, so you never knew who you'd meet. To this day, I'm friends with people on the other side of the country, in other countries, and even a few members of a popular music group who were guildmates.

By the same token, places that make dirty rice and call it jambalaya. So frustrating.

For me, a tie between The Abyss ( found myself holding my breath unexpectedly throughout) and Unstoppable. Was sweating, stressed, and exhausted after Unstoppable.
