<p>welcome ancora! i love snow but it’s not wheelchair-friendly, sigh</p>
<p>@ironchariot</p>
<p>thanks! and yeah, unfortunately it’s not turns out, it’s not all that friendly towards me either because i’ve fallen in the snow approximately 3 times while shoveling today</p>
<p>I’m gonna call and ask " why does my UChicago portal say that I’ve been rejected!? I thought decisions aren’t supposed to come out till Wednesday?" He’ll say something along the lines of , " I’ve pulled up your account and it doesn’t say that anywhere". That’s when I’ll say “are you saying I’m lying? It’s right here in front of my face!” Then he’ll say “but we have you in our system as an Accepted student…”. Then I’ll hang up and jump for joy.</p>
<p>random question, but is this a mostly male or mostly female thread? i feel like there are more girls talking, but i might be majorly mistaken. </p>
<p>i’m of XX chromosome, btw (if you couldn’t already tell by my tom hiddleston fangirling)</p>
<p>also, that is so brilliant carter! i don’t think they’d fall for that though…</p>
<p>Haha dear god this makes so much more sense. I was picturing a bunch of teenage guys freaking out over Tom Hiddleston, while I’m just sitting here like “I mean, he’s a good actor but I don’t know why these guys are so into him.”</p>
<p>I am a guy, by the way.</p>
<p>I’m a girl, but I’m pretty sure Tom Hiddleston is universally appealing. :P</p>
<p>@fireballs wait, are you implying that i sound like a guy through internet chat speak? </p>
<p>idk why, but people always think i’m a guy whenever i talk about chances or SAT/ACT strategies on CC</p>
<p>@carter that’s actually pretty clever omg… though I’m not sure if it will work o_o they might figure out your purposes…</p>
<p>I’m female too, though I don’t 100% identify with it…</p>
<p>Btw Tom Hiddleston was chosen first or second (I forgot)… hottest actor by Empire Magazine… :o</p>
<p>@neontissues No, it’s just for some reason on the Internet I assume the other person is male unless otherwise stated. I think part of the reason is that a lot of the forums I frequent are geared towards typically male interests, so that is what I am used to. Looking back over the thread, it’s kind of apparent you are a girl. I just hadn’t given it much thought.</p>
<p>@fireballs same, i tend to always think the other people i’m talking to are also female. some weird psychological effect yet to be studied perhaps. </p>
<p>if i were a straight male, tom hiddleston would be number 1 on my “i’d tap that” list ^.^</p>
<p>He was second. I remember because Benedict Cumberbatch was 1st, and much as I love Benny, I would put Tom first.</p>
<p>@carter </p>
<p>that really made me laugh, what a clever idea. if you actually go through with it, props, i will be crossing my fingers for you!</p>
<p>and i’m a girl! but i feel it is a rule of life that everyone be obsessed with Tom Hiddleston</p>
<p>to be honest, i’m not a fan of benedict cumberbatch at ALL. i didn’t like him in star trek (good acting, but physicality was not there) and i don’t enjoy his interviews as much as tom’s.</p>
<p>I know it won’t work…sigh. </p>
<p>When I pictured CC students, I pictured a bunch of mean nerds… That was, of course, until I found this thread. Most people on this site are so rude and pessimistic, chancing people as if they know the admission process down to a ‘T’. You guys are much more supportive though…unless we’re all just really excited to be talking to each other haha</p>
<p>I’m a girl too! But I agree, Thou must love Tom Hiddleston should be the Eleventh Commandment</p>
<p>I’m a fan of Benedict but not nearly as much as I am for Tom. Benedict’s been pretty clear he hates press, and the way he’s also hounded by fans I can’t really blame him. Very few people would handle all the people and press as graciously and happily as Tom does.</p>
<p>I hate his cheekbones lol thou shall love the Biebs and only the Biebs.</p>
<p>@ultra THOU SHALT LOVE TOM HIDDLESTON. i love it. </p>
<p>wait, i just heard from my friend next to me that loki was the thirteenth god and he died (***?!) so that’s why 13 is an unlucky number? can someone verify this??? i love loki so so so so so much he can’t die i sobbed throughout that whole scene in thor 2 ermahgerd aoisjfpoaighapeirjf</p>
<p>From Wikipedia: </p>
<p>“Triskaidekaphobia may have also affected the Vikings: It is believed that Loki was the 13th god in the Norse pantheonmore specifically, Loki was believed to have engineered the murder of Balder and was the 13th guest to arrive at the funeral.[4] This is perhaps related to the superstition that if 13 people gather, one of them will die in the following year. Another Norse tradition involves the myth of Norna-Gest: When the uninvited norns showed up at his birthday celebration (thus increasing the number of guests from ten to thirteen), they cursed the infant by magically binding his lifespan to that of a mystic candle they presented to him.”</p>
<p>But don’t worry, it was just a trick. :)</p>
<p>I was actually really terrified they were going to kill Loki off in Thor 2. It kills me he won’t be in Avengers 2, since Thor 3 isn’t yet confirmed and it wouldn’t happen anyway until after Avengers 2 and that is released in summer 2015…</p>
