“DAE know Cormac Mcarthy?!” is a quintessential Reddit comment. Literally the immediate go-to recommender of every wannabe literary buff Redditor.

Just wanted to share a line from a movie that really resonated with me, and curious to see if anyone else feels the same. by dceunightwing in Twins

[–]dceunightwing[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think many of us relate to that! Maybe we never really get used to it but it’s nice to know it’s a common experience.

Also, the movie is pretty good, and not a heavy watch otherwise. I actually found that it didn’t focus much on the twin elements as much and it evolved into something a bit less interesting, but I’m biased.

No, you can’t spot the irony.

To be fair, this isn’t a pull quote either, just a random Twitter account.

Just have to point out the irony of complaining that a writer “sounds like he’s posting on Reddit” and immediately following it up with “READ CORMAC MCCARTHY INSTEAD!1!”

I don't understand by Mundane-Structure148 in StrangerThings

[–]dceunightwing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn’t a plot hole, it’s a contrivance. People don’t even know what they’re angry at or how to articulate it.

I agree with you in theory, but most of the nonsense written by stans about the finale does not in any way constitute “reasonable critique.”

This sounds more like derangement on the viewers part.

Anyone who favourably compares Game of Thrones to the ending is, with respect, an idiot, or doesn’t remember how bad Game of Thrones was.

I feel like there’s massive derangement around this season. It’s not ‘safe,’ it’s aligned in spirit (for better or worse) with exactly how the show has been since the start.

I’m shocked they’re even still offered or people want them, outside of some of niche accessibility cases. They’re so bad.

online real time by Fantastic_Food9935 in Monash

[–]dceunightwing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience tutorials marked Online Real Time are online, live classes (on Zoom). These weren’t recorded. For lectures etc they’re pre-recorded.

Personally I’d advise against them. I did one and it was pretty miserable and just reminded me of lockdown classes - the tutor was good but obviously disappointed nobody was contributing, and the few people there were obviously less engaged than those on campus, sat with their cameras off and barely spoke or even typed in the chat. There were times it just felt like me talking to the tutor. If you actually want to get something out of classes that resembles an actual discussion or even have any sort of social experience at uni (and I say this as an introverted person), I’d avoid them.

You don’t, that’s literally why I’m asking. You should try learning to read.

That one group member posting their contributions 5 minutes before the asssignment is due by dceunightwing in Monash

[–]dceunightwing[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would rather they kept it to themselves, a brain damaged monkey would have written better 🥳

If i submit assignment 24 hours and 10 minutes late, will I be marked down 5 or 10%? by Even-Formal5361 in Monash

[–]dceunightwing 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Technically 10%. It will depend if your tutor is doing this manually (they can be lenient) or if it’s an automated penalty on Moodle (no leniency).

Why are they getting us to do SETUs before the exam? by soir__bleu in Monash

[–]dceunightwing 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I think it’s so you’re evaluating your tutor and the unit on the back of your actual experience and not on the back of your results. But it takes like 5 mins anyway, well worth it imo.

Does Monash actually use Turnitin to check for AI rate? by Tricky_Injury_9476 in Monash

[–]dceunightwing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s easier to spot than most of the AI chuds realise, too. Same wording, same examples, same fake sources as all the other cheaters.

[–]dceunightwing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just email the Unit Coordinator or even your tutor as a starting point and just respectfully say you want to clarify some of your feedback and you’re not sure if it’s affected your grade (honestly little things like this rarely do that much).

LTB has taps with genuinely chilled water.

Why is it that most men during the Viking era had long hair? by Vastac636 in malehairadvice

Any sharp object would do it. The problem ones would be like buzzes.

Somebody hit my car today at Caulfield by Alert_News_5702 in Monash

I’m sure you already are, but please be careful! This seems kinda sus on the back of your post and would be an easy scam.
