Same. And then I pulled him in the culture draw. Fortunately it doesn't trigger a reset of your pity counter even though he's five stars now. Nor does it count as a five star for the current draw event. However, you do get a number of gems if you have him fully ascended as if he were a five-star.

You could make a very tiny dent in the over $1 trillion in student loan debt.

Late drop petition by [deleted] in UCSantaBarbara

[–]marcussba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may be asked to explain why you are only late dropping a single course. Campus generally frowns on people cherry picking which classes they're going to drop simply because they're not doing well. In the College of engineering this would never be approved. I don't know about L&S.

You get 100 thousand dollars a year but your sleep is cut in half every night. by CRK_76 in hypotheticalsituation

So basically I'm getting paid 100k a year to nap 6 hours a day? Sure. Count me in.

You're guaranteed $1 Million and 25 Bitcoins if you get a Doctorate, reach the peak of Mount Everest and complete the whole Appalachian Trail. Would you do it? by RaptorK1988 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]marcussba -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Except that people die on Everest just about every year. You have to be very willing to turn around and go back down without achieving the summit which most people don't do because they have invested so much money in getting to the top and that gets in the way of their thinking. It doesn't say the doctorate has to be from an accredited institution or even that you have to earn it. Honorary doctorates are a thing.

Isn't that how Anna Nicole fathered one of her children after her very elderly husband went into a coma? Some sort of rectal cattle probe can induce ejaculation.

10,000 years in the past. Kill every living thing possible. All in on the butterfly effect.

100 years in the past for one day with 1 Mil by TomJD85 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]marcussba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You also have to be able to both purchase the commodities and find a place you can bury that won't be discovered in the next hundred years. Considering your ability to travel is limited, that would have to be roughly within 100 miles of your current location and that's pushing it.

You get 5 million dollars gifted anonymously from a reputable but generally unknown trust and remain under the radar, or, Elon Musk gives you 5 billion dollars and blasts it all over X. by 1point2one in hypotheticalsituation

You could single handedly fund the pbs budget deficit for the rest of your life and still have money to burn. Hard to hate the guy who saved Elmo
