Probably go to some other truck that has heat.

How are the hookers supposed to survive in such low temperatures?

The obvious solution is even more hookers. Eventually, their combined body heat will fill the truck and keep everyone warm.

I was actually in SAT range of one of the Ivy League schools, Dartmouth. Didn't even consider it. I probably wouldn't have gotten in, and paying would have been difficult, but even if I did it wouldn't be worth it. The Ivy League is shit academically. I've heard tales that Harvard in particular doesn't give out grades lower than C's. You get in, you graduate, simple as that.

Similar note here. I was contacted by Yale, but they didn't offer near enough scholarship money for me to attend, and certainly not enough to offset spending four years around a bunch of budding neocon politicians. The Ivy League means nothing apart from prestige, and I've also been told of grade inflation among its universities. Hell, that's a problem pretty much everywhere in the U.S., for all that our university system is touted as being (one of) the best in the world.

It is? Never heard anything of that matter. Sure, there are some prestigious universities, but aside from those the general opinion you get is an cripplingly expensive and rather mediocre system. (Or a less expensive but religious system, of course)

I never even took any college entrance exams. Couldn't afford them. My high school was charging $100 for the SAT, and $150 for the ACT, back in '01. I can only imagine that they've gotten more expensive nowadays.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

As I recall, my SAT fee was around $250.

Bay 12 really needs better anti-spam filters.

Bugger it. Also sigged.

This right here is rageworthy.

err testing for me was free?

So, eh, Huluplus has come to the Nintendo 3DS? I actually downloaded the app and got the 1 week free trial they're offering just to look at it, and... wow, the Netflix app that came out for the 3DS months prior, that's prone to crashing and has weird bugs that keep cropping up, and sometimes it needs excessive buffering and retrying to connect to what I want to watch... that seems dreamy in comparison to what Hulu is offering.

Man, what is this interface even? Why do I have to go through like 4 pages of loading to get to one video? And everything is not in any kind of rhyme or reason order. I mean, Netflix isn't much better, but atleast it's more straightforward.

How come I get only a week free trial when Netflix gave me an entire month free trial?

What's really killing it for me though is the adverts. Holy shit how can anyone ask for a subscription fee and still have mandatory, unskippable ads? That's inexcusable. I watched through one episode of an anime, and during that episode there was one advert played right at the beginning, and then the show was interrupted THREE times for batteries of 2 adverts played back-to-back. In total, that's 7 adverts played over the course of my show.

Do they actually expect people to pay to watch advertisements? Especially to this sickening degree?

What's really bizarre, is that it isn't ANY cheaper than Netflix either. 8 bucks a month is what both services are asking.

I may just have to cancel my subscription before the free trial. I could forgive everything else, but not the ads. No one can be this masochistic. There'd have to be a really persuasive reason for me to consider ever tolerating this kind of crap. It's the principle of the thing.

meh, cable TV still has adverts, and it requires payment.

But I would pay more for Hulu if I could lose the ads, as opposed to the nothing I pay now, and just torrent the shows.

On cable TV, you can just change the channel until the ads are over. Not quite the same deal with streaming.

[Bauglir]

I'll note that on Hulu, refreshing the page during an ad sequence will cut it down to the sponsor notification and a single ad, usually about 35 seconds compared to the standard ad sequence's 120. It seems like every third video load will also give you the option to watch a particularly long ad or play a stupid game, and have no further ads for the rest of the video. This is particularly valuable for movies, but even with a half hour TV show, it is probably worth just refreshing a few times to trigger it.

[Thecard]

Right, so, my mouth is bleeding. I just got cut by garlic bread. Fucking garlic bread.

Weird thing is, it doesn't even hurt, at all. It's just irritating me, the flap of skin getting in the way of my tongue and my teeth. I dunno if maybe the skin there isn't too sensitive or if I've gotten so used to the prospect of my mouth hurting, but I don't feel anything but annoyance for this.

Well, annoyance and RRAAAAGGGGEEE.



Also, it's really starting to bug me that there are four of every letter in the thread title, except for the "R".
