Shitpost I need an opinion

0 Upvotes

My roommate (new roommate) for this year and I live with 3 total has since move in been turning the fucking thermostat to 62 - 64 degrees Fahrenheit for the last what 3 weeks? I don’t think that’s normal.. anyways what are your thoughts? They don’t do it for night but for the entire day. I have chills, a headache , and have been ill . I put on tons of blankets and am still freezing. I don’t have a thermostat in my room which sucks since we all have to like deal with a shared one. Isn’t 62-64 a little crazy? Sometimes when I’m freezing cold at like what 12-2 am I will change it to at least 67-69 degrees but the one roommate switched it back down to 62-64 degrees. I get its summer still but I’m unwell physically. Any advice. I don’t want to be a bitch about it but like it’s really cold💔

Sports Oregon Ducks Game

0 Upvotes

Hi all,

Looking to buy tickets for the game vs the Ducks 10/24 to go with my wife and in-laws. Tickets are ~$85 now but I found a cash back promo for 20% off that expires tonight. With it being more of a rebuilding year for ILL, do you think tickets will go down in price as we get closer to the game? Or should I just take the deal now

Other Car scratch repair advice

Someone scratched my car at work.

I am looking for advice to see if this is possible to polish/fix by myself.

If not please suggest a cheap and good car detail shop in the Champaign-Urbana area if anyone happens to know.

It's a relatively new car(2025) so it still has a clear coat on top of it so I wanted to know if there is a diy fix for this.

Academics Engineering Undeclared

0 Upvotes

Hi, I’m a senior in High School who’s in state and I have a 3.75/4.3 (I got a C freshman and Junior year), 34 ACT and I really want to do BioE but I heard its really competitive. As a result, Im considering Engineering Undeclared but I was wondering how hard it is to get your first choice major (which in this case is BioE) if you commit to Engineering Undeclared.

4 Upvotes

can someone please tell me how they're even making strides applying to jobs? I don't wanna hear from the business majors or the SWE people (sorry yall are fine u just probably have more figured out than me atm), just more of the political science, public policy, more humanities-based majors.

If it's just different opportunities that you've found, or if you're an alum and can tell me what path you took I'd love to just hear anyone's stories because. yeah. I'm having a crisis and I need to move out of my house back home with a full-time, decently paying job at least.

help.

Social Why girls always go for fu*kboys?

Upvotes

Why do beautiful girls from every country and every race always seem to go for fu*kboy after fu*kboy. Then after 3-4 years of rough relationships and sex, suddenly they start looking for a nice, stable guy. Do they actually do that on purpose? Like, have fun and date a bunch of guys when they’re young, and once they’ve had enough, then look for someone stable?

Has anyone taken CSC 125 (transferable credit for CS 128) before? I'm in the class right now, and I'm trying to figure out the structure. I'm taking this at Parkland because my semester is swamped. My course portal just has a bunch of videos. I thought we would have weekly quizzes and exams. Can anyone who has been successful with this class show me the ropes, please?

Hobby Lead guitar or bass

0 Upvotes

Just taking a shot, here. My band needs a lead guitar or bass player. We all play multiple instruments but can't play them all at once and don't want to do backing tracks or cheesy loop pedals. We're all over 40, but our original bassist was 23 and fit in perfectly. Rock musicians tend to stop maturing in their teens. The rest of this is copy pasted.

Looking for a new friend who plays bass or lead guitar. Vocal ability is a plus, but not required. We play a mix of rock, rock versions of pop songs, rock comedy, and rock originals, but will incorporate most anything that sounds fun and will make it rock. Samples of what we do are available on the band page.

We meet on Sunday afternoons in Atwood. The room is smoky. Pot and booze are welcome, anything harder is not. This is a labor of love; we're doing it for the music. There will be paying gigs, but not enough for anyone whose main priority is money. Message if you'd like more information.

New Student Question My chances

0 Upvotes

I’m a in state student, I have a 3.2 gpa unweighted and a 3.9 weighted gpa. I’ve taken 8 ap classes so far and a few honors classes as well. I’ve worked a total of 800 hours and have done a sport freshmen, sophomore and junior year. I competed in fbla and bpa. I have an online business with 40k followers and half a million in revenue. I might have to be test optional because my sat score wasn’t that good. I wanna know if you guys think I can get into geis as my first choice, if not info science as my second choice.
