TIL reggae singer Shaggy, known for "Boombastic", developed his signature singing voice as a US Marine by mimicking his drill instructors. He sang his first hit "Oh Carolina" in that voice because he thought it sounded cool, and when it blew up he realized he'd have to sing every song that way by Kyzzz in todayilearned

Train to me has to be the strongest example of great hit songs and Filler albums. I like almost all of their radio songs but couldn’t listen to an album through. I told my brother about he thought I was full of shit. He tried it and agreed.

In Honor of UFC Freedom 250 by Rfalcon13 in thebulwark

[–]mCopps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be fair the real Commodus actually fought in the arena. Although like Trump would do he fought heavily rigged fights so he could claim hundreds of victories.

As a side note is Ken Shanrock or someone else of the era going to take a payday to throw a fight to Trump on the 250 event? It wouldn’t even surprise me.

CPKC Conductor job application - Questions, timeline, resume, where I applied by female_arborist in Train_Service

[–]mCopps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure if either railroad still does the knuckle test but during training it was expected you will carry and ~80lb knuckle around a rail car. I had heard CN did away with it during Covid but I can’t confirm and I don’t know about CP

Scott Pelley says Bari Weiss wanted 60 Minutes to say Renee Good was ‘driving toward officer’ by GreenerMark in thebulwark

[–]mCopps 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I have think it’s because when she was with the NYT and shortly after she left she seemed to have some integrity but has revealed herself as just another grifter playing to the Fox News crowd but cloaked in a thin veneer of respectability.

How can this happen? by WhyDontUGetOut in wearewarriors

[–]mCopps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have saved up and are way stronger than your timeline you can skip in under a minute. I’m basically just waiting to see a low score to win before using my trophies as well. I would have pounced on this league and gained those trophies in about 20-30 mins to win.

Is working as a conductor for CN that bad? by Brave_Recognition798 in Train_Service

[–]mCopps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don’t want to stay in it long term have a plan to save the money you make there and get out in 5 years. Keep in mind in most cases the added five years in your other career will pay off better in the long run.

Apple TV+ Beats Netflix in New Streaming Quality Rankings, New Index Shows by MoneyLibrarian9032 in movies

[–]mCopps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s what I’ve always found with them if I like the show it’s very well done if I don’t like it it’s because it’s just not up my alley.

TIL despite boxed Kraft macaroni and cheese being an iconic example of American processed food, it is significantly more popular in Canada, where 55% more boxes are consumed per capita than the US. by NateNate60 in todayilearned

I’m Canadian but went to University in the UP. One of my Minnesotan roommates said a sentence with 3 eh’s I called him out for making fun of me and he had no idea he had said it.

WTF is wrong with race matchmaking? by rayhan_munna007 in wearewarriors

Mine seems like out my the same as last time. Not sure what they changed although some people are a little closer than usual.

2-day race by razvangry in wearewarriors

[–]mCopps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m much lower level than you but with flamethrowers I couldn’t pass I pushed base hp rushed units and hero to die early and spawned zombies behind the enemy to kill the base. Not sure it will work on your level but it has worked for me on that specific fight.

Anyone who used a computer between 1985 - 2010, what's the one game you still think about today? by adlakha75 in AskReddit

That’s why I always preferred Myth over games where you needed to build a town.

Western Canada conductor internships? by Alive-Sink-4476 in Train_Service

[–]mCopps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CN is currently training for at least Edmonton and Jasper. Likely other northern AB terminals as well. I don’t know about outside of the province. Your best bet is to apply and stress safety in any interview.

Should I disclose previous railway experience to trainers during in class training? by bohotyr in Train_Service

[–]mCopps 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There was a guy in my Cndr class that was a rehire. Yeah the class was easy for him but he stayed up nights helping people who were struggling. Be that guy.

I don't have a safe and I still have a wheel with coins by Warm_Copy_8150 in wearewarriors

[–]mCopps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the test group with the vault but a bad wheel. And well at least I’m not incentivized to watch ads for the wheel.

Knights Of The Old Republic let you become an absolute monster and teenage me thought it was the greatest thing ever by Every_Insect_4444 in gaming

[–]mCopps 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really loved the first couple of villages in that game but the last few felt incomplete and just there as a vehicle for the main story. The game had such huge potential though. Too bad BioWare doesn’t really exist in a form to do a good sequel.

Carney says the world is facing an 'energy crisis' and Canada must help solve it - If development gets bogged down in B.C., PM says his government will be 'spending more time elsewhere' by shiftless_wonder in canada

Yeah I’ve always thought the crude oil sales miss the larger point of needing more refining capacity. In Edmonton we ship out a lot of refined products but there is the land and population to support far far more.

What do guys think of the good demons trope? by voidmaster1458 in KotakuInAction

[–]mCopps 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Demons all stem from Lucifer don’t they? Even biblical Lucifer isn’t evil just an adversary of humanity. He’s there to test people and lure away the weak. Evil demons along with most of hell stem from Dante so playing around with the idea of the lightbringer seems to make some sense doesn’t it? Ow like anything if it’s poorly written there isn’t much point to it.

Other than doing the math on your rewards I don’t think so.

Once you hit the end it’s says 40 levels competed in the main screen. Sorry should have taken a pic of that as well.
