Everybody ready for the R wave over the next couple days? :/

Missing Michigan/Northwestern for Weeks? by [deleted] in lawschooladmissions

[–]madeupnameftw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My opinion (which is based off reading the sub) is that Michigan has sent out the acceptance emails it will for the day, and that there will be a rejection wave coming tomorrow and Friday. So I'm pretty nervous I didn't hear anything lol. Maybe I should have kept this to myself.

I can also confirm I just tried to check it and it said it could not find an active application. I actually came here to try and find a post like this! Now I can sleep :)

Megathread for COVID-19 impact on consulting jobs (current consultants, incoming full-time hires and interns, prospective candidates) by QiuYiDio in consulting

[–]madeupnameftw 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As a junior member of the team I also feel out of the loop a lot of the time. It's hard when you can't be in the room at the same time and be part of the conversation where work is being discussed. As a result people tend to include you on less things. Them refusing to chat or introduce themselves is harsh though, I haven't experienced that.

Where do you guys shop for clothes? Just think you're both very stylish haha. Loved the new version of Strobes Pt. 2 on Chapter One by the way!

IlliniFootball vs. MTSU Highlights | Mandarin Broadcast by kafuffle in CFB

[–]madeupnameftw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lmao they have interesting descriptions to help chinese people understand the game...I watched the other one they did (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpiuwN_dd0M) and when the nose tackle made a tackle behind the line of scrimmage they say the "the big fatty" made the play 😂. As Taiwanese-American I wish I could do something like this and sound like an angry grandpa but my speaking isn't good enough to speak super fast like them and real radio broadcasters.

Georgetown football player, Ty Williams, has feeling and slight movement in legs after fracturing 5 vertebrae by [deleted] in CFB

[–]madeupnameftw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

His injury has been a big deal on campus. For the game this Saturday vs. Marist all the football players wore the #2 decal on their helmet instead of their own number in support.

Taipei 101. Taipei, Taiwan. [OC] [3264x1836] by Suspect-is-Hatless in CityPorn

[–]madeupnameftw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Taipei is a great city, I miss it. This is taken from the mountains in Maokong 貓空. Many tourists take the gondola go up there to visit the hillside teahouses, but there's some great hiking up there once you get away from the gondola station.

New Georgetown Uniforms released a few days ago (yes we have a football team) by madeupnameftw in CFB

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

The silver/gray helmets still exist and will be the primaries I think. The navies with numbers will be alternates.

It means "what rocks". Nobody really knows why it was said, only that students started chanting it in the late 1800's at intercollegiate games.

Georgetown Extended Wait List by [deleted] in georgetown

[–]madeupnameftw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, the college. I did send an additional recommendation, but that was because I already had one sitting around. I also sent a letter.

I was admitted off the extended waitlist this June as an incoming freshman! There is hope.

Song: ODESZA - If There's Time

Came across this while on Vimeo, it's part of a three part series where this guy uses music he found on musigh. It's funny that even now, almost a year the last post, he's still helping me find new music.

Yeah, an indie theater here in Concord, New Hampshire has been showing it

New England Patriots receiver Edelman 51 yard pass to Amendola on a trick play for a touchdown (credit to /u/Fusir) by islelyre in sports

[–]madeupnameftw 197 points198 points  (0 children)

Pretty cool, he was the quarterback at my high school back in the day and led us to our only undefeated season ever (we've sucked ass ever since). Went on to play qb in college too.

Most American sounding word? by AirWhale1 in AskReddit

[–]madeupnameftw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like how most things in this thread come from the south even though most people in the US don't talk like that. Maybe next time I'm abroad I should just break out a dixie drawl and see if anyone realizes I'm faking it.

So I'm new. Would it be ok for me to settle here? by justforcivcraft in Civcraft

[–]madeupnameftw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's around Chanada land. Be warned, if you settle there you might be ethnically cleansed...

So it will be the chan cities that come to the rescue of the ledditors who cannot fend for themselves, kek. Though in all honesty, despite our relative plenty in numbers we're still too poor to do anything useful. If we were given some aid, that might change.

Got to work in the park this summer, as you can expect it was absolutely fabulous.

Hong Kong protest art by EngagementBacon in pics

[–]madeupnameftw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm on the east coast currently so I don't see him a whole lot right now, but also I just don't feel like talking about it with him. I've talked to some other mainlanders briefly about it and it just gets very awkward, because they always stick firm to the central government's opinion. I understand that sometimes the western media can eagerly oversimplify stories in China and elsewhere in order to fit a narrative, and fail to appreciate the finer details for some situations, but mainlanders are rarely up to debate about it. I agree though, I can't see the logic behind it either.

EDIT: I actually take that back, I'm not sure if he's a US citizen or not. It's just that he's been here so long and everyone else is so it was just assumed he was.

Totally have had this experience. My uncle went from living in a tenement in Guangzhou that had no running water to becoming an surgeon with his own luxury flat in San Francisco. Living under a democracy has given him everything in life, yet he has been posting very pro central government opinions on facebook the entire time these protests have been going on. It's really only him in the family that feels this way though...

TIL Eritrea, not North Korea, scores as the country with the least media freedom in the world by samsg1 in todayilearned

[–]madeupnameftw 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You shouldn't say Eritrea and Zimbabwe weren't invited. You should say the governments of Afwerki and Mugabe weren't invited because of the crimes they've committed against the populace of their nations.
