bunnyofdoom posted:So the MP who started the Weir investigation with an open email is herself suspended and under investigation for sexual misconduct  Honestly reading the allegations against her I was sort of like "heh whatever", then I realized how bad it would be if the genders were swapped. I guess don't throw people under the bus for being "creepy" when you are a rapist yourself. Edit: Jesus loving Christ this thread is hostile. "then I realized how bad it would be if the genders were swapped." That's me recognizing my initial response to the news was inappropriate, and acknowledging it's not a "heh whatever" story.

patonthebach posted:You think rape of a disabled war vet who was plied with alcohol when they were on heavy painkillers, by a person of authority, is "heh whatever"? If you weren't tripping over yourself to get offended you might have seen I was identifying my own initial reaction as inappropriate. She's a rapist.

Yeah her kid looks like a complete loving loser. Dunno what the deal is with certain cliques apparently trying to look as bad as possible. Fat, creepy tattoos, dumb hair, cheek piercings. I'd 100% mark him as a "live with Mom and Dad and spend all of my part time cart pushing money on my sweet tats instead of paying rent" type. Glad to hear that's not the case but just lol if you aren't feeling some second hand embarrassment looking at that "ALONE" tat. Christ. I'm saying this as a 29 year old progressive who's the only person in his social circle without multiple tattoos. I can only imagine what boomers and older must think of him.

The new liberal anti-NDP ad is pretty great. Orange washed images of Horwath with Fred Hahn (featuring sweaty arm pits) talking about NEVER ENDING STRIKES. It's ok though, union buster Wynne has your back! I feel like Horwath has done a pretty poor job defending her position though. She did a lot of interrupting and guffawing during the debate but never stepped up and addressed why back to work legislation is bad for anyone but the workers involved. For instance: Is it any wonder that these sectors are striking repeatedly when every attempt at collective bargaining is shut down by the government? Perhaps if their last contract addressed their needs, they wouldn't be striking now? Maybe businesses would negotiate in good faith if they weren't certain the government would bail them out? They are getting hammered from all sides on this and they need to have better counters to anti union rhetoric than "Well actually, essential services can't strike!"

I'm sure he's someone's type in a big way. I think you need to calm down. I commented negatively on some guy's appearance on the internet, oh no! Even better, on a private forum he'll never see.

Testikles posted:Canadian Tire isn't going anywhere any time soon. They have Mark's Work Ware (wear?)house, SportChek, and some other stores and gas stations. And they bought that Norwiegian Helly Hansen company. So they're doing well. Maybe in 10 years they'll get a new CEO to drive it into the ground I'm pretty amazed by how well Sportchek has turned itself around. You can actually pick up pretty decent stuff for most sports there now. It wasn't that long ago they were selling full plastic snowboards and CCM/supercycle bikes. You know, stuff that would kill your rear end if you tried to take it on challenging terrain.

melon cat posted:Remember how I was posting about the PC's weird pandering to ethnic people? This has been a staple of Conservative campaigning at least as far back as 2011, when my wife's parents received a letter telling them how much Stephen Harper loves Vietnamese people. It's pretty loving gross and manipulative because a lot of these people can be highly isolated and uninformed on the issues. I remember in 2011 the conservatives ran pretty aggressively against reunification of families where olds were involved. So here were my in-laws (Vietnamese boat people), getting a sweet letter in Vietnamese from a nice man they know nothing about who says he admires them and asks for their vote. Oh, what a nice guy, why not? Meanwhile the fucker is running around ranting (en anglais) about how their parents are worthless drains on society and should never have been allowed to come here. Classy

I just find it funny that Mr. HYDRO BILLS HYDRO BILLS KILLING THE PROVINCE HYYYDRROOO's first action is to scrap a fund aimed at helping people reduce their hydro bills. This personally affects me as I was gonna get a bunch of poo poo done under the program but whatever. I understand it wasn't helping anyone truly facing financial hardships but it certainly would have helped me  I'll just pay more to insulate the attic and garage. It needs to be done either way. Is this where I'm supposed to start frothing at the mouth? Do I pass the "not right wing" sniff test?

I celebrated Doug Ford Day by paddling two hours, setting up camp for an awesome 4 day weekend and then immediately having my first ever kidney stone get rocketed into my left flank as I was swimming. Ended the day crossing a rough lake we don't know well in the dark (secretly hoping I'd drown) to get to a hospital At least they told me I don't have any more?

EvilJoven posted:Southern Ontario humidity is another thing I really don't miss. 30c above? Find some shade and you're comfy, or just drink water and the sweat will keep you cool. I did the last 25km of a 100km gravel race at 30c no problem. 30c below? You can dress to be comfortable out in that for an entire day.  Actually, below -10 or so, water vapour has a really tough time hanging in the air and humidity drops like a rock. Ottawa is loving cold at -5 let me tell you that

BREAKING NEWS I have aquired the tape of the conversation leading up to this statement. Here is a snippet from the transcript: "Donald Trump, really? People are comparing me to Donald Trump? Fuuucck.. I'm wayyyyy dumber than that guy Hey Eric.... ERIC!!! Hold my beer.. and write this down" Honestly though, what the gently caress? I was banking on him being a lazy fat gently caress and basking in the glory of his victory. He's done more poo poo in the last couple days than Trudeau managed in his first year

CLAM DOWN posted:Uhhhh what? Ok he hasn't DONE anything but he's been incredibly active, and put the brakes on a lot of poo poo that's harmful. Ensuring the SIU remain the same toothless joke they've always been is a pretty substantial step backwards if you work under the (maybe overly optimistic) assumption that bill 175 would help. Take that with basically inciting hatred against asylum seekers and he's been more impactful than most politicians manage to be in their first week. That is for sure.

Hey dudes I was just sort of thinking back the other day, like way back.. like 1000 years or something.. Remember back in the ancient times of 2015 when everyone was like "gently caress the Senate! Lifetime partisan appointments are a cancer!"? Most of the reasons for the outrage still ring true today, but the world (and Canada) has since shown a startling propensity towards electing literal retards.. I'm kind of like "hey maybe a 'place of sober second thought' isn't such a bad idea after all".  Anyhow I just thought it was kind of funny and figured I'd drop by and gas up the thread a bit.

Fell behind like 30 pages on this thread and what a welcome back THIS page has been.. Question.. How the gently caress is Andrew "wouldn't leave a child alone with him" Scheer actively tweeting content from Alt-Right Reddit not like a major news story? What the gently caress? Has anyone forwarded this poo poo to any reporters? Edit: I mean there was the odd story written like a year ago about it but I'm talking loving American style "BREAKING: Andrew Scheer does another indefensible racist thing" followed by breakdown of every other nazi things he's had his nose in all these years. Why not do? Edit edit: lol nothing matters Math You fucked around with this message at 16:40 on Jan 30, 2019 |

How loving tone deaf are you? Spain is really nice but it's not some utopia and life is real poo poo there for a lot of people. Maybe pull your head out of your rear end and find some joy in your life instead of blaming it all on your locale. There's a lot you can do during the winter other than be a sad sack of poo poo

Lol let's be clear. It was not a "hey I am enjoying Spain. It's nice to get away sometimes. I wish we could emulate some of their culture around work life balance and food" post, which is cool and good. It was a straight "I have no friends and I'm an alcoholic.. not because I'm a toxic mess, but because everyone around me is the worst. In fact, this whole country is garbage! Why, if I moved to another country where people are less bad I'm sure everything would turn around for me!" post

I almost think we need some targeted toxic masculinity to shame and bully all the no necks out of politics. Scheer, Kenney and Ford are all repulsive slobs, and it's a shame we can't take their lunch money or push them into lockers. Like if you think about it, it's a lot like chemotherapy. Sometimes you need to apply a nasty treatment to particular cancers?

My Cuisinart Keurig thing is 7 years old now and has survived being pried open with a hammer and slammed upside down against the counter to get an engagement ring it swallowed out of it. I've never made pods in it. I have a burr grinder and reusable filters. Since we drink 1 cup a day each it's just way more convenient than every other option. It has a big rear end reservoir so it's awesome as a hot water dispenser as well. My French press is finally getting some more action since I got the burr grinder though. Seriously if you are using a blade grinder, take the leap.. the consistency of the grind is everything

The NDP positions (plural!) on mortgages are so loving retarded I really do find it hard to believe. Are they concerned Jagmeet won't win his Burnaby riding unless they juice the retarded pro housing market vote or something? I bought a house last April and I'm still kinda overwhelmed by it.. and I'm on the path to pay it off in 15 years... THIRTY loving YEARS? ARE YOU loving CRAZY? This has actually left me more stunned than Ontario provincial politics. Like I knew Singh wasn't an idea man, but what the gently caress? (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

I just had to explain marginal tax rates to a man who describes himself as a single issue voter for "fiscal responsibility". I was literally laughing my rear end off about how people complain about getting too large a raise, when he piped up in the smallest voice "wait... You don't get taxed the higher rate on your entire income?"

Has there been any analysis on Scheer's chicken little act? Everything is an 11 outta 10 on the outrage scale. "Omg what is Turdeau doing trying to negotiate with a total stud shark like Trump? He needs to roll over before he destroys the economy!" "Omg the LIEberals gave up so much in the deal. ARE FARMERS! Spineless!" I honestly just completely tune him out in a way that I never could Harper. I'm genuinely curious if his addiction to outrage turns off the general populace or if people are largely eating it up and we're destined to assimilate completely into American political culture

Deaths of despair going up up up forever.  My highschool and college friends are all back in Kitchener and that seems like the last time in my life I was able to make lasting bonds with people. They are still great when I go camping or skiing with them 3-4x a year but poo poo.Have had a lot of "buddies" since but it seems like once you hit your late 20s everyone has guards up and aren't really looking to add another fixture to their life. Sure, I've got lots of people to go skiing or biking with but no one will move to break that barrier from "ski bud" to friend, even though we'll all probably acknowledge that we're somewhat lonely (in private). I love my wife for a lot of reasons but the most good she's probably done for me is to be incredibly social. I'd honestly have like zero friends that I see regularly if it weren't for her. She is absolutely not allowed to die before me. She'll be much better off without me than the other way around.
