Re: Vancouver, as someone who lives in the massive part of British Columbia that is not the Vancouver area, the Olympics involved a lot of the provincial government (because it was definitely handled on a provincial level, not a federal) ignoring northern infrastructure issues in order to pay to make the lower mainland a bit more shiny. Sure, Vancouver got some great infrastructure. I live ten hours away, provincial debt was increased by $24 billion, and we sure didn't get any of the tourism or job creation benefits they liked to tout.

But then, the provincial government screwing over the the rest of the province is nothing new. "We're going to close a whole bunch of small schools. Somehow this is going to mean only schools outside the lower mainland and mostly rural, and they can just go to other schools, who cares if that means we're expecting six year olds to ride the bus for two hours every morning to schools that are now very overcrowded because three schools are now one school? We don't have overcrowding! If you take the average of the province, including all the small schools in Vancouver we didn't touch, there's no problem!"

I like opening and closing ceremonies, though. They're fun and ridiculous.

I take it you live in Prince George?

They could raze Prince George to the ground and build it anew as a city of the future, and brother, still nobody would ever visit Prince George for tourism reasons.

Prince George is where you go to have a convention for the carpet industry, or if you've got a troubling addiction to hobo-murder.

A hefty doze of weed killer, a bucket of fresh paint, and install the electrified third rail on that thing and it looks nicer and more maintained than half of the train stops in Eastern or Southern Europe.

The next line in the song is ‘Tossed salad and scrambled eggs,’ which scans perfectly with the name of the chair and description.

... That's a good guess. Yes, I live in hobo-murderville.

And yeah, I know we're not getting tourism dollars ever, we're a mill town, but man does it sting to see your government spend a ridiculous amount of tax dollars on the Olympics when it feels like they don't even like admitting the rest of the province exists.

They reuse some of the facilities. I remember you used to be able to use a bunch of the stuff in Lake Placid in upstate New York. I had some friends who went down the bobsled track but I was like lol gently caress that I've seen Cool Runnings I know how this turns out.

I went down the bobsled track in Lake Placid about five or six years ago. They put wheels on it in the summer and charge tourists a bunch of money for a very short, very terrifying ride.

Even aside from the dirty jokes, how the hell are you getting a whole handful's worth of nuts in a glass of almond milk? Is it just whole almonds ground up and mixed with a little water into gruel?
