Virtual Russian posted:Yeah, I've been mostly happy with my decision to move to BC. Cost of living vs KW is somewhat brutal, but I've managed to already get a major promotion and pay raise at my new job. Plus it's work in my field, which had dried up in KW. Too bad you moved I had made a post awhile back asking if you wanted some free beer. I hadn't used your username because I forgot what it was then someone other clown ended up PMing and being a weirdo. Missed out bub!

So glad I got out of grocery and back into my field. That was such a demoralizing situation. It was so nice to start a new job, and have them immediately realize I know what I'm doing and pay me way more/put me in charge. I've been chatting online with Sobeys employees country wide, what they did at my store was done across the country. The bulk of the "hero pay" got tied to working over twenty hours, and everyone not on contract got cut to 19.5 hours. It was absolutely a policy put in place.

You're only in the terminal stages of this if you talk about London or Paris outside of an obviously Ontarian context and expect people will know you're talking about the Ontario ones.

the skydome is the CN's tower's testicle, if they're going to do anything they should build a second one beside it. maybe make it slightly larger.

When they say dedicated baseball stadium I guess it’ll be open air right, that seems to be the way it is going. It is a much nicer type of venue for baseball but makes the land completely unusable for the shittier half of the year, weather wise. I dunno that’s Ontario problems. we got BC place with a new rear end sphincter roof so all set! The stories of the jumbo tron blinding nearby condo owners seem to have died down, sadly.

I always thought of it as the yonic equivalent of the CN tower's lingam, what with the suggestive opening of the roof and all. Does this count as posting horny?

The bystander effect is real. That's why you gotta jump in everytime, and hopefully convince other people to help you, but you have to lead in that type of situation. Somebody has to, might as well be you. "It's none of your business" is the mantra of a coward.

Plenty of handy bludgeons around in that video. You don't just let someone continue their vicious beating and record it on camera, he could have killed his victim.

People are afraid they'll end up jumping in and then fighting some psycho alone. The trick is to grab someone by the shoulder and say something like "we gotta help this person" and then head in. Once two people get involved the odds more people will help increase ime.

I’m probably about as goony as they come and have absolutely zero self defence training but I’m a pretty big guy and feel I could have easily grabbed that dude from behind and locked his arms in place at least. Yeah, I’m probably doing some hero fantasizing but goddamn that poo poo just makes me absolutely sick to my stomach.

I don’t know how I would act in the moment but I can tell that if I tried to break something up, catch a fist the wrong way and go down and become a vegetable leaving my wife to look after the kids she would surely finish me off with a hospital pillow.

I've broken up a bar fight doing that, you toss the person on top to the side, and 99.9% of the time they will become clear headed and stop. If not, run. You're not helping anyone by getting stabbed.

Someone last summer got killed in one punch by some dickhead that raged out because he was taking too long backing in a trailer. Fist fights can be fatal so gently caress fair fights. If I gotta fight I'm using something heavy and/or sharp and attacking from behind if possible. That style of fighting might be fine if someone goes after me or my family but it's gonna land me in prison if I use it to try to stop a fight between some random rear end in a top hat and a store worker. Sorry bro not my monkey not my circus I'ma stand over here and call 911.
