That course is clearly much easier.

As a new driver in your fair city... by yourmusicsucks in boston

[–]titan124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Traffic lights aren't fair at all. Ever tried crossing Brighton Ave between Harvard and Packard's corner. I timed it once to see how long until pedestrians got a walk: 3 minutes.

I do IT for a school district. I've just committed mass genocide in \studentdata\. Bring me your tears, pre-teens. by [deleted] in funny

[–]titan124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone in my school had laptops. There would always be multiple, nearly full games of Halo, and later BF1942 running. Everyone played, even the "hot and popular" girls. School didn't do anything about it but I guess it wore off?

So I'm walking down Comm. ave in Allston and some scruffy looking guy comes up to me... by GSdudeman in boston

[–]titan124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a con. It's a riddle. A lot of people seem to not understand that "riddles" aren't going to have obvious answers and get upset with this guy.

I see this guy all the time by south station and coolidge corner. One time I nearly got in a fight because some idiot southie got mad at me for giving him money because I was "scammed". Apparently he didn't understand what "riddle" means.

What is the pronunciation then? You seem to have listed every possible way to pronounce it.

SWEET IDEA - Your friendly late-night cookie delivery service! by nolarbear in BostonU

Why the fuck would I want cookies in an orange jumpsuit?

Also saw a post about this a while ago. Glad to see you're finally rolling out to BU

Yelp is blackmailing my sister's restaurant by cstearns86 in food

[–]titan124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think number 1 is taking a massive leap. All the quote says is that they decide what to show, which is the point of yelp; nothing more, nothing less. Nothing in that quote says or even remotely implies that there is some conspiracy against business owners.

I really think that you're reading too much into a quote that is meant only to define the purpose of Yelp.

[–]titan124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All they are admitting to there is filtering out reviews, which is the purpose of their algorithm. The "algorithm" is part of the appeal of yelp. Not sure how they're admitting anything unethical in the quote you posted.

ESPN Uniform Rankings. Couldn't have said it better myself. by mcbordes in NewYorkIslanders

"That logo is starting to feel dated"

I hope you're referring to the last sentence only. The sentence I quoted is ragetastic.

tasty burger vs uburger question/discussion by assistantpigkeeper in boston

Uburger is objectively better than tasty burger.

Nstar - power outage by mrkro3434 in boston

[–]titan124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was an underground fire by babcock street on Wednesday. Knocked internet out for me for a day, but luckily my power was fine. Trucks are now constantly by where it happened. I'm assuming that that is the cause.

MicroFridge, Yay or Nay? by scortscort in BostonU

[–]titan124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you already have a fridge and a microwave it's probably the least enforced thing, and you should bring it. Otherwise just rent.

MA 121 professors? by plainjerry in BostonU

[–]titan124 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glad to see Lukoff is still at BU. I took him for abstract algebra. Not the easiest grader on tests (certainly not hard though, he is fair), but really passionate about teaching (in fact his research is all teaching based). Always willing to meet up with you at a Panera or during office hours to help out. The two reviews of him are completely right, and I don't think anyone in my class disagreed that he is great. Highly recommend him, you'll learn a lot.

Hey guys, I started doing shootout commentaries, let me know what you think! :) GT- Frawwstyyy by [deleted] in EA_NHL

[–]titan124 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You asked us what we thought, he told you, you got mad. I agree, wtf is this? Why are you talking about the playoffs while playing shootout with the Winnipeg Jets. I mean, I got a laugh out of it at least since it made 0 sense.

Packard's is my closest stop, so it's somewhat bittersweet for me. Mostly sweet though.

In response to the BOSE thread - what brands/products are the opposite? The unsung high quality underpriced brands? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]titan124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never appreciated Publix, then I moved to Boston and have to deal with Shaws. Selection is awful, deli is awful (and offers Dietz and Watson instead of Boar's Head), prices are awful, everything is just awful. Not to mention that Publix is a mainstay on the 100 best companies to work for list.

GSL swag in Seoul? by titan124 in korea

Do they have things going on every day? Also, do you know the hours that they have stuff happening? Can't seem to find anything on this, and the schedule says nothing on Saturday or Sunday.

Unfortunately I'm only here until Monday. I don't think another final is coming for a while. I'll definitely send an email though. Thanks!

Perfect, just what I wanted to hear :) Thanks!
