I have the dogs and only two hands, I wish I had three hands so I could pet them all at once instead of having to alternate depending on who shoves who out of the way

What about the roads, who will pay for the roads?

Just hit today on my 2010 corolla, I've put like 6k into this car which includes tires in the 8 years I've driven it. #toyotagang

Gas pedal flavour

Did the same for FFXI but game cards didn't exist so I had to beg for my dad's cc number which was a huge deal in 04.

I keep telling my family to just give me steam cards for Christmas but they don't like giving gift cards cause there's "no thought" but don't understand that I don't buy physical games anymore.

I don't want it if I don't need it. Considering where this country is at with housing, education, transportation, food, etc. I think those billions going to well off seniors rather than back into communities that will make life better for everyone is fucked.

It's still all Greek to me

The Rainbow Bridge, which connects motorists and pedestrians between Niagara Falls, New York and Niagara Falls, Canada, was closed for two days following the incident.

Ah yes, the province of Canada.

No, and the notes were generally about cleaning up the kitchen/family room and taking the chicken out of the freezer.

I don't live in Vancouver. Every part of the province that isn't the GVRD has an abysmal transit system.

One with a functional transit system.

House goes from 200k to 700k in 10 years then goes to 630k and were supposed to be happy? This country is a fucking joke.

Minus the vague threat I used to come home from school most days to one of these

We've just started celebrating Truth and Reconciliation Day on Sept 30 in Canada but I don't think anyone but the First Nations and the try hard use the day for any kind of truth or reconciliation. I played video games all day myself. Not sure if the day itself had any historical significance, we still celebrate Thanksgiving in October.

I'm pretty sure the band had an actual name, I've suppressed the hundreds of hours of bullshit skits and bad cover songs I had to listen to when I worked there so I can't remember what they were called but I remember all their names .

Left to right: Charles, Helen, Munch, Jasper, Pasquale.

I've been pretty happy with him as a premier who far. Seems like he's the only politician right now who's actually doing anything substantial to fix the issues we have. The cities are crying right now and that's a good thing.

What's the statscan definition of homeowner? Aren't myself and my partner considered owners because we live with my parents in their house, so there are 4 "homeowners" living in the house.

I could be wrong but I remember reading what they consider a homeowner does not match what common sense says it is. Please point me in the direction of something if I'm wrong, I've tried looking but can't find anything.

Public transit is viable if it means you're commute is faster. There will always be people with an excess amount of money but why do we give a shit what they want, they are a demographic who doesn't need support. Better public transit for those who can't afford to drive means less cars on the road for those who need to or choose to drive which means faster commutes for everyone. It's a win win situation but people are too short sighted to see that.

Cities, provinces, and the feds have the money to build out our public transit infrastructure they just don't want to because it means more work and a chance they will lose votes. Much like parent of the child who wants to eat candy for dinner, the gov't needs to step up and act like the leaders they claim they are, and not roll over like some weak ass parent who is scared of their kids. Vancouver Island, where I live, has a rail corridor going from Courtenay to Victoria that could realistically serve the majority of the islands population yet the municipalities refuse to look at it because the people who vote (seniors) think it's a waste of money, don't want change at the end of their lives, and have all the free time in the world to organize, to write letters to politicians, to go on media campaigns, etc.

Also, I find it laughable that you think I have a me first mentality for not wanting to waste 5 hours of my day commuting when my government refuses to give me a real alternative. If the rail corridor was open and I still chose to drive then sure, that's valid criticism. Until I can move closer to my job (doubtful with $2000+/month for a 2 br) or there's a viable alternative that doesn't mean I lose all agency in my life to save $20 a month then I'm going to continue to drive and if the govt wants me to stop because they "care about the environmental impact" then they can do their job and uphold the public interests and give me and everyone else on the island a real, practical, and economic alternative to driving. This is no different than blaming the consumer about all the plastic bottle waste instead of regulating the industry that produces them.

James got them Jimbo sizes tits.

Adding a cost to driving will force people to reconsider their habits and when enough people have to change, we can demand the city do better with transit. Right now, if you have money, you will not take public transit. It doesn't make sense for people with money and poor people have no choice to take public transit.

And if there is no viable alternative for then to turn to they will not change their minds. We build the infrastructure first, and change the public's mind second with improved commute time, more money in their pocket, etc. I'd rather not wait several years after the public has finally got it through their "me first mentality" to start the decades long process of expanding our pathetic transportation infrastructure to bring us to s21st century standard. We are a half a century behind countries in Europe and Asian in regards to our transit infrastructure, the best time to build it was 50 years ago, the second best is today not in 5 years when driving a car is no longer possible for the majority of people.

I could take the bus to work, but it turns my 2hrs of driving a day into 5 hours of commuting. I would never give up my car until that option is viable, and that's not going to happen until we have the infrastructure to make it viable.

The alternative to the status quo is the incentive to change. If you build the transit and make it a viable alternative in terms of costs and time, people will take it: millennials, gen z, and soon gen alpha aren't driving at the rate of previous generations for many reasons, they want public transit but they are forced to drive. If cities actually start to prioritize public and active transit infrastructure improvements over those for single occupancy vehicles in a meaningful way people will take them. This is one of those candy for dinner scenarios where the public wants what they want without understanding why it's not good for them and the gov't needs to step up and do what's right instead of caving to the pressure.

And kids don't want to eat their vegetables or go to bed on time... Sometimes people need to be encouraged to do the thing they don't want to do, but is only in their best interest.

I work as a public servant and I say this like once a week. The general public acts like a spoiled child who wants to eat candy for dinner. The public do not care that candy isn't nutritious, they do not care that they will rot their teeth out if they eat out for every meal, they do not care that it will give them an upset stomach. They know what's best for them and candy is what's best.

Unless I'm the mush are sending me to another plane of existence, no thanks. Milk is pretty good though.

I'm not even a weeb I just think mushrooms are nasty.

I'd rather bust my nut on a waifu figurine than eat mushrooms and milk for breakfast.

Eldritch hotdogs

Yeah that's fair, I personally love it especially back cracks.

You're good

Donald Unger, a doctor who received the Medicine Prize for cracking the knuckles of his left hand -- but not his right -- for sixty years to see if the habit contributes to arthritis (it didn't)

The indifferent is Viktor and he doesn't care about anything other than food. The other one in the back is Joe and he hates getting his picture taken despite how photogenic he is. And Chloe is old and kind of a removed.

I think it's for blending

Yep, he's got three more in the series.

Fucking love my corolla, I've put like 2 grand into it in ten years and it runs smooth. Things a beast.

Abhorsen series by Garth Nix.

Lucky Americans with your late thanksgiving. After the Remembrance Day on the 11th Canada goes into full Christmas mode, Mariah included.

Depends on the bear. Black bears are cowards and you can generally just make noise or act big to scare them. Brown or grizzlies you'll want to play dead and pray then don't try to eat you. Polar bears, good luck, better have one of those boxes really close by.

The rule on black bears can go out the window if they are worried about their young, super hungry, or young and inexperienced with humans.

Someone with better knowledge can correct me but that's what I was taught when I was a kid.

Most smokers are assholes and genuinely don't care about stomping a butt and the city is too cheap and scared of homeless people to put out more ashtrays and garbage cans and hire more workers.

I was in the city this weekend and finding a place to put my butt was a hassle the few times I smoked away from my hotel, which did have an ashtray. You'd think they would have those disposal things attached to every bus stop but they don't.

They sold it at my uni, sales went to the surgeon research department.

Maybe paint ball instead? Shoot someone in the neck and you'll get a great story and an easy ice breaker.

Glad I could offer a bit of reassurance man, all the best going forward.
