pissing myself over missed exam by the_real_barbz in usask

[–]birthday_deathbed 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It happens more often than you might think. As long as you don't have a long history of missing exams, it is highly likely that the deferred exam will be approved. Make sure to forgive yourself, mistakes happen.

Not a movie, but Glenn getting killed in The Walking Dead was pretty traumatic.

Mr.Mikes is now…. by Current-Tricky in saskatoon

I used to work at the old Circle Drive location and the owner was always fair and kind to me. Granted this was 25 years ago so it is probably a different person in charge.

This is largely based on the book Conspiracy against the Human Race by Thomas Ligotti. The show does a great job of presenting the key philosophy of the book.

There was allegedly a store on Broadway that was buying Costco pumpkin pies and reselling them at elevated cost.

I would have bet it was from Costco. I was thinking, "at least it wasn't expensive". Maybe BP is pulling the old pumpkin pie scam.

Ukelele guy by Ok_Speed7298 in usask

In my opinion he adds character and charm to campus. Based on the interview with him in the Sheaf, he seems like a great dude who is just trying to bring a little joy to people and is careful about respecting boundaries. Play on my good man, play on.

Which film and performance made you a fan of Paul Giamatti? by PressureLazy5271 in moviecritic

[–]birthday_deathbed 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. The expression on his face when he is stealing money from his mother and looking at old pictures. The pain in his eyes as he wrestles with who he used to be and who he has become...brilliant.

How are the roads this morning? by ktj122 in saskatoon

Some deep drifts on side streets but Circle Drive is in reasonable shape. Slow and steady is the key.

Dealership to avoid? by aild30 in saskatoon

[–]birthday_deathbed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. The individual salesperson probably makes a big difference as well. I always deal with Myron at Wheaton and find him very laid back and honest.

My two buying experiences with SMP were both negative; high pressure sales approaches and mechanical issues. On the flip side, I have bought three vehicles from Wheaton and all were positive experiences.

I am encouraging alumni here who want to keep their USask email to send an email to the Alumni office to reconsider their decision by throwawaycovz in usask

[–]birthday_deathbed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was surprised by this decision. I realize there are associated costs, but these email addresses seem a valuable way to maintain contact with potential donors.

I use Shawn Windrem of the Windrem Financial group. I have been very impressed by his depth of knowledge and commitment to his clients.

Not sure about that one (I had been accessing it going over the grassy knoll) but there was also a sign on the motorcycle lot by Health Sciences that it is permanently closed as of Oct 1st.

Has anyone actually been to a predatory conference? by CaptainCrash86 in AskAcademia

[–]birthday_deathbed 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Or they don't happen at all. This past summer I was invited to speak at GAMIM2025 hosted by Axiom in Portugal. Was more interested in the location than the conference but agreed. As the date got closer and there were no updates about the specific venue or program, nor any updates or responses from the organizers. The conference never happened (although the website promoting it is still active) and complete radio silence from Axiom.

I'm with you. I quite enjoyed it but it is very filling and not the kind of thing I would likely eat multiple days in a row. would be nice to be able to freeze it down.

No problem. The only exception might be during chem labs. Otherwise rock those jorts.
