SNES for me, and rather frequently.

Bald eagles are sometimes considered kleptoparasites, and I've always found that fitting for the USA.

To reiterate what others have said, unless you establish residency (i.e, live in California for 1+ yr) you don't qualify for in-state tuition at any public institution, which means you'll be paying roughly similar to private school tuition to be at a public institution. If that public institution is UCLA or Cal (UC Berkeley) you may as well look at USC or Stanford which will also have their fair share of alumni connections. Mind you, these are elite institutions, not just anybody gets admitted.

In general, the alumni connections thing is overstated—people who go to these universities will tout them but plenty of people who aren't from these universities are just as capable of connecting with employers.

If you're Canadian, I would just stay in Canada. I'm an American living in Canada. I'm an academic and hear very often about the cost of higher education rising in Canada. While this is true, the cost you'd end up paying to study in the states will be quite a bit higher than what you'd likely pay at any Canadian universities. Add to that the cost of living in these cities will likely be high. You can visit California for far less than the cost of tuition + cost of living.

I'm genuinely curious what that means. What does it mean to "be manly"? Is it bad to not "be manly"? Along a similar vein, what is the opposite of "being manly"? Who defined the qualities that make a person "manly" (and what authority do they have on the subject)?

When you both shit hard enough together at the same time and wonder to yourselves "was that splashback mine...?"

If Boston is the armpit of the Commonwealth, Worcester is the butthole.

You forgot to mention that the movie you're watching is "The Land Before Time"

Quench your thirst with sausage infused water by throwing a respectable number of Vienna sausages in one of those infuser bottles.

Oh I know this game. I've always thought it would be funny to use raw onions in the place of apples in caramel apples and pass them out on Halloween.

A crow eating chicken and a human eating beef are actually really good parallels. Crows and chicken are 91 million years diverged while cows and humans 94 million years diverged.
