I like Shawarma palace because they call me boss and make me feel like a man (for once). Both Rideau and Bank/Hunt Club are good. Also $12 to leave my wife and I couch bound for the rest of the night (and with garlic breath for days) is just too loving good.

Since the big three have successfully had tarrifs increased multiple times in the last year, teksavvy isn't all that much cheaper than the rest. Everytime I receive communications from them lately it is a rate hike. Right now I could get a faster plan with Rogers for cheaper and I also don't need to buy a modem.. However, gently caress that. It is not worth spending 10 hours fighting with them when they hike my sunshine rate 30% a year from now. It is also ridiculously short sighted to run off to the dudes who are trying to choke them out of competition.

Calgary still manages to have one, and sometimes two of its Costcos in the top 10 daily sales reports world wide. Calgarians somehow manage to spend over $2,000,000 at Costco every loving day of the year. I'm not certain if those numbers are equalized to USD or not. Also St. John's. These people are supposed to be poor. Anyway thx Alberta for ensuring I have job security.

This thread is shockingly hostile to the cyclists for a bunch of people who complain about car culture. As someone who frequently rides my bike a hundred or so Km out of the city and back, in addition to commuting to work half of the year, I am glad to know that I'll have it coming if I get smoked.

PT6A posted:We are moving toward progressive income taxation, although there's obviously more to be done. I'm not sure why you'd then favour introducing an inherently regressive tax like an HST, but I'm quite sure it's a bad idea. Fair. However I was speaking more to the point that there is a poo poo ton of revenue that they need to be collecting when times are good so they aren't immediately hosed every time resources take a hit. "Hey bro I was too busy buying trucks to save a dime. HELP ME OUT" - Residents of Alberta - Also government of Alberta The idea that Conservatives can still march around with the "We arent gonna tax you. Why would we tax you and pay a bunch of useless fatcat public servants when you know how to manage your household finances so well?" message is loving ridiculous. Someone more creative (and generally more useful) than me troll social media for truck nut hicks who shared similar clips and are now begging for assistance and make funnies.

I'm stuck in Saskatoon for the day with nothing to do. Really, nothing. The listed attractions on trip advisor and in google are all closed Sundays. The whole city is a loving ghetto ghost town. I'm not usually one to complain about a lack of traffic but it honestly feels like I'm driving around in the middle of the night. gently caress the prairies. Also why the gently caress are these digital billboards as bright as they are? Are they trying to light the way to Regina?

I've never gotten stuck in my goddamn life driving exclusively sedans / hatch backs. Never AWD. I've been through some pretty deep poo poo and I credit my record to having a brain. Like if a plow went by my street maybe I'll wait until there are no cars so I can hit the wall at speed?* I've seen a lot of AWD SUVs and trucks stuck in traps that I just plow through. That said if I were driving around loving northern Ontario or something where there's no road service at all then I'd probably get something taller. *Don't try this if there's any wetness to the snow or you're gonna have an expensive repair

The Kirkland organic eggs in the clamshell made out of water bottles are supposedly pretty good on a "humane treatment" side of things. I know they are sourced from smaller family farms all over. That obviously doesn't mean poo poo but Costco is the only retailer I'd trust to make meaningful relationships with farmers, who they will invest in to bring operations up to scale and to get them following best practices... If their coffee and cocoa sources are any indication anyway.

So what's a good punishment for someone who's sexually harassed someone? A lot of the people I see clamoring to fire every man who's ever made a woman uncomfortable would typically believe in rehabilitation over vindictive sentences when it comes to criminal punishment. While I've been mostly happy with the metoo campaign and all of the resulting resignations and firings (and especially gently caress Herh and Brown), I can't help but wonder what's enough. I kind of think back to that hydro one "gently caress her right in the pussy" idiot. Has he since found employment? At what level of financial ruin would people determine he had suffered enough for being a pig headed idiot?

I will poo poo it up extra heavy and state that I hope Tanya Granic Allen continues to get a lot of air time.. not in the hope that she tanks the party from within (although that would be a nice plus), but because she's the first living person I've genuinely wanted to hate gently caress.

As much as I'd love to jump on the "this isn't AMERICA" train, Doug Ford honestly does not have anywhere near the baggage Trump did, and several massive advantages that Trump did not.

I was at Costco last night and a short man with a kid or two in tow was blocking an aisle getting samples. Guy turns around and it's Yasir Naqvi. I was gonna say something dumb about the election but decided it wasn't the time /place. He could tell I recognized him and seemed relieved when I kept my trap shut.

I'm a white guy who has several women and POC in the same position as me with a lot fewer technical (and personal) skills than me. It took me four years of scratching and clawing to get to the top of the pay rate in my position even though I've been training everyone else the entire time, and have numerous unique responsibilities. I actually had to listen to HR talk to me about the "optics" of giving me large raises several times. I never felt the need to get on a soap box and cry about my position. It was between me and my employer. I certainly didn't feel the need to deny the existence of white privilege. Even though I wasn't necessarily benefiting from it in the workplace, it may have helped me get there. poo poo, I'm 29 and have never been pulled over! However, it did suck... I can sort of see how some people start to lose it and get sucked into the talking points of the right, especially if they are regularly exposed to young activists telling them how bad they should feel all of the time.

I've spent my life laughing at conservatives crying to defund the CBC, but now maybe I am one of them. That or give them a lot more funding so they can afford to actually do some journalism. Half of their poo poo it just pulled from other sources and poo poo like the fifth estate are just hack jobs designed to stir controversy and ratings. Dunno if any goons watched last week's EP on pharmacy but holllllyyy poo poo. It was the laziest excuse of reporting that I've seen in my life. Disclaimers 1. I work for Costco 2. I work in pharmacy I can go into some detail not on my phone if there's interest, but really, going to some dying guy's house, broadcasting his sob story nationally, and then going "how do you feel about Costco doing something entirely irrelevant to your situation when you live with this?" What's worse is there are lots of programs out there to help connect patients with inadequate coverage with life saving medication, specifically because people dying due to lack of medication looks bad on the manufacturers. The fifth estate wasn't at all interested in helping anyone they interviewed. They were not at all interested in looking at the real problems in the industry. They just sensationalized the gently caress out of a relatively small news story because they don't understand the issue or someone high up at CBC really doesn't like Costco, which would explain some wonderful reporting in the past. Dog treats carried by every major retailer in Canada, and which had passed all inspections* is accused by some random woman of poisoning her dog. COSTCO MURDERS DOG. UNREMORSEFUL *To be fair I wouldn't feed that poo poo to my dog. Again, they are missing the real story. Costco misses a step on a small specialty order of some canned tuna, as retailers rarely import food goods directly. CFIA takes issue and Costco works with them to correct their processes to ensure it does not happen again. COSTCO PUTS EVERYONE AT RISK. BANNED FROM FISH! Anyway gently caress the CBC. As much as I like to beat up on corporations, being more intimately knowledgeable about these particularly stories has really stained my perception of the organization as a whole. I can't take any of their investigative journalism seriously.

My aunt shares lots of weird poo poo on Facebook. One was an image of bacon at various levels of doneness captioned "which piece is cooked perfectly?" Queue 3000 comments of meat is murder and desperate claims that meatless alternatives taste "better", interspersed with the odd "geeze, I just wanted to talk about bacon" which all had 30+ replies of the same self righteous comments. Some of which implied that meat eaters would get cancer (and so, so deserve it). This wasn't like a meat lovers page or something, just the usual click bait "funny" page which market themselves to old white people. Apparently there is an army of vegans who search Facebook for any reference to meat?

Twitter idiot's mistake was tweeting it. It's not like she was the only one thinking the exact same thing. I've been sharing similar sentiments with friends, family, and coworkers all week.. you know, people who know me well enough to understand I'm not evil or trying to deligitimize whatever feelings of grief they may be experiencing. Privilege shaming a bunch of dead teenagers was also not the most nuanced way to get the point across. I don't feel particularly bad for her. Hopefully it blows over soon and doesn't ruin her career.
