| Topic | Boy Meets World vs. Home Improvement |
| foxhound101 08/07/21 10:35:49 AM #43 | I always really enjoyed Home Improvement and it's still my favorite comedy show of that type. I remember watching Boy Meets World, but I barely remember anything about it. For me it was always average. --- There are a ton of misconceptions about recycling.

| foxhound101 08/05/21 11:37:29 PM #2 | What are the cost of living differences? If they are relatively the same you sound like you'd be happier with the one that is in a better area. Plus the gap isn't as big if that one has better benefits. --- There are a ton of misconceptions about recycling. Learn how to better at recycling: https://onbetterliving.com/simplify-recycling/ |

| Topic | I'm on the final stretch of Mega Man X5. What the fuck is this *spoilers* |
| foxhound101 08/02/21 11:27:52 PM #21 | Tag for X6 reactions! The game actually has a lot of potential, but there are just so many flaws. The worst fire level ever, and its not even the fire that makes it terrible lol. Obnoxious weather and other affects that can randomly happen in any level. Permadeath for the robots you need to save for parts. A whole batch of bots that are impossible to locate/rescue (such as in the ice level) until you locate some obsure/helpful bot with a super useful part. And of course one of those ice bots also had a useful part for rescuing other bots. It does have some sweet music though. Other comments: Yellow Devil needs to go away. He's really not all that fun to fight. The gimmick of re-fighting every boss at the end of the game needs to go away. Or at the very least there needs to be a save point afterwards. So that if you need to take a break, or get beaten by Wily (in the classics) or Sigma that you don't need to fight them a third...fourth...fifth time. --- There are a ton of misconceptions about recycling.

| Topic | Do you look down on people who attend community college? |
| foxhound101 08/02/21 2:00:25 AM #23 | Nope! It's the smarter choice. Earn the credits from the classes no one cares about, and then transfer. CC is also the smarter place to start because you don't waste nearly as much money if you decide college isn't for you. --- There are a ton of misconceptions about recycling.

| foxhound101 07/23/21 1:44:42 AM #12 | The two games are vastly different so depends on what kind of gameplay you are looking for. I had way more fun paying Doom 2016 so that one if you want us to pick! --- There are a ton of misconceptions about recycling.

| foxhound101 07/22/21 1:11:10 AM #145 | Derwood CableZL posted... If I'm paying $13,000 for tuition, I would expect something to be relevant every year I'm there. I was majoring in computer science, and I took: I think anyone who goes to college would want to have a well-rounded education Nah - Not everyone who attended college thinks the "well-rounded" thing is necessary. It's just an excuse to drag out the experience for 4 years to get the piece of paper at the end. This is why trade schools should be encouraged.

Distance driven is a much more helpful measure. Yes you are paying extra already for the service fees, and item charge-ups. If you disagree with the fees then don't use the service.

| foxhound101 06/02/21 1:19:15 AM #2 | My BF has been learning a new language for months. He has an an app on his phone, and a website that he visits daily that has him practice his vocabulary. He also started watching shows (kid shows) in that other language. If you really want to learn you'll probably need to put at least 30-60 minutes into it daily, and it'll probably take a couple months for you to become semi-sufficient. --- |

But it's a known statistic that meat production is horribly inefficient. It takes at least 2x the amount of resources, and at least two types of farms.

| Topic | Community has tricked people into thinking going to community college is good. |
| foxhound101 05/18/21 8:27:47 PM #33 | SothaSil posted... Many of those grad students are probably months away from the same level of education as those CC instructors, if not better educated. Silly point. As long as the grad student wants to teach, and can be an effective teacher that is what matters. I have the same problem with professors that just want to do research and absolutely hate the teaching aspect. Just because you understand the subject doesn't mean you should be teaching. I did have two grad students. I liked one of the two so they can be effective enough if they know what they are doing in the classroom. --- |
| Topic | Community has tricked people into thinking going to community college is good. |
| foxhound101 05/18/21 8:12:05 PM #27 | Nah - Community college is great. Save yourself thousands of dollars a semester by going to community college. You can transfer to the university when you're done. Honestly I have no real school loyalty. But I have more loyalty/respect for the CC than I do the university I attended. I found the teaching quality to be about the same if not better at the CC. It was really nice to not be in an auditorium with 1000 other students. Or be taught by a grad student. Or taught by someone that wanted to do research and hated the teach aspect. --- |
| Topic | A job interview where someone brings notes |
| foxhound101 05/13/21 1:28:40 AM #17 | It seems a bit odd that he had access to the questions ahead of time. But having "notes" to reference seems perfectly reasonable. I did it when I did my interview. They weren't detailed notes, but they were a list of a few things I wanted to be able to use as examples for the situational questions. And now that I'm participating in panel interviews in a remote world...some candidates could benefit from having some notes lol. The interviews are stressful enough! Nothing wrong with having something to reference real quick. --- |
