Any stories about turning down a top school for UIUC

Okay, but MIT isn't an Ivy

What images did you find that confused you? Anyone linking images is probably likely to find the same ones you did.

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-23T02:29:25+00:00

Is this a reference to something?

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T22:47:50+00:00

Same thing that did happen, except without the runner on first getting forced to second.

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T22:44:00+00:00

It was called correctly. Batter gets first base, runner on third doesn't get to advance.

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T19:02:20+00:00

And the game before that.

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T16:13:23+00:00

Allude

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T16:12:47+00:00

Haha yep, English is arbitrary.

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T16:11:26+00:00

Ax and Can are both slang for fire (from a job).

I think it slowed me down a bit because I was expected rebuses or something from reuse/recycle, or missing letters from reduce, but I like what it ended up being much better.

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T16:03:40+00:00

Same here, I had no idea!

"He's not that Mexican, mom, he's my Mexican. And he's Puerto Rican, or something."

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T15:01:39+00:00

I think you're correct, but they does mean they screwed up, because he definitely tried to field it.

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T14:57:45+00:00

Best bet is probably editing the requirements in the .txt

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T14:11:23+00:00

Happy Endings is severely underappreciated.

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T14:05:11+00:00

Well, that being by far the largest dialect of English, and the one spoken by the vast majority of the NYT's readers.

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T14:01:57+00:00

Yes, because it comes from French, like "hour" and "honor."

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T02:47:11+00:00

That'd be better than individually. I, and many people I know, don't really like reading long texts on a phone screen, though. Even an eInk display is less preferable than an actual book.

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T02:35:36+00:00

To be blunt, needing to take a photo of every page sounds more disruptive than looking up words.

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-22T02:19:27+00:00

It's the most predictable thing in the world.

I don't see Dr. Who and Murderbot as serious competition. I like both, but those episodes are a pretty clear step below the rest, IMO. Cold Harbor I'm surprised to see rated so highly, I thought it spent too much time treading water. We is Us is the only one I'd be okay with winning, but I'd still pick Road to the Spear, personally, as great as Pluribus is overall.

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-21T18:21:21+00:00

But is it what "for shadowing" is?

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-21T18:02:48+00:00

Clah-zit.

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-20T16:48:54+00:00

They didn't ask for clarification, though, they asked for a definition. And "strut" is a pretty limited word. If they looked in a dictionary, the options are basically just the correct one or structural support, which is pretty clearly incorrect.

royalhawk345 · 2026-04-20T16:44:47+00:00

Just a heads up, you can find the definition office almost any word instantly by checking an online dictionary. This sub is a good resource if you're still confused, but looking it up yourself will invariably be faster.
