      I don't know who this Kane dude is but we gotta stop him

       

      :lol::lol:

       

      That guy chose a hell of a 1st game to watch. He even said he was trying to find the Cardinal's game or something. 

       

      What a beauty.

      I didn't know Reebok is giving him free Blues gear. Wow, I'm so jealous! Playoff tickets and Jersey, thats about 500/600 bucks right there

       

      Hahahaha, that tweet is hilarious. The one that got me was "Empty net? The goalie just said f*** it and left?" I laughed for a solid minute.

  2. Is it perfectly acceptable to take out the AC?

      Right? Its so freaking hot right now and usually a fan is good enough. But right now its not.

  3. Don't tell me how to live my life. Jk, I went for a run today and it was fantastic. What isn't fantastic is that Demko isn't signing. Not saying he wont sign, he probably will. I, as well as a lot of people here are just annoyed that he hasn't signed yet.
  4. Anyone here been to San Francisco? Has anyone here done the tour to Alcatraz Island? I wanted to book the night tour cause everyone told me to do that. But I just checked and they're all booked up. Anyone done both the day tour and night tour? What will I be missing in the night tour?

      Been ages since I was there. When I went they gave everyone a portable music player which described the island and all the cells etc. So everyone could pause it, go at their own pace and take their time. It was definitely worth it. I went during the day. Only difference I can imagine during the night would be the view of SF from the island. Have fun.

      I've been to San Francisco many times.  I like to go down there for the day.  I've been to Alcatraz during the day for an art exhibit.  It was nice, and I really enjoyed seeing the jail cells and reading about the history. I heard it's haunted - it may be great to see it at night.  And make sure to get your tickets in advance and arrive 15-20 minutes early.

  5. Phenomenal end to the last episode of "The People vs OJ Simpson" Very touching that the last image we see in the final episode is a picture of the two victims. 

  6. Holy moly. Mamma Mia was AHMAZING. Definitely a show to see twice, thrice or you know..a million more times.

      Amazing to the people who like that type of music. I'll stick to Andrew Lloyd Webber thank you very much. Each to his/her own. 

  7. WEST INDIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gonna be one hell of a match
  8. Alright peeps, I need help. Anyone here know a good place to go on a road trip for a week or less, I'm going with my best friend. Somewhere that not too much of a drive, less than 10 hours. Although I can try to push somewhere between 11/12. I thought of LA, turns out that's a 20 hour drive, and my boyfriend and her girlfriend aren't letting us drive that far. So, any suggestions?

      Hood River has badass windsurfing. Mega-badass. I go for pizza (seafood and beer obviously) and the most insane windsurfing in the world (subjective - haven't been everywhere).

      Apricot, drive as far as you and your friend want to go.  You are young - be impulsive and feel the joy in the freedom of youth.  

      If you still want suggestions of places that bring electric excitement that makes every fibre of your being come alive with total awareness, I say Surrey Sky Train Station.   :lol:

       

      Just pack up and drive.  Go where you and you friend's hearts take you.  When you get back, post your experiences here, so we (not so young and able) can live vicariously through you. :)

       

      If i were only 50 years younger....

  9. Epilepsy awareness day today! Wear purple in honor of a girl you all barely know(me), but have one mutual connection with!(Canucks), two if you're counting Tank Nation ;)

      Apricot, one of my favourite players from the 70's was Gary Howett.   One of my older brothers has epilepsy, and watching Gary Howatt win Cups with the Islanders really helped us all, as a family.  Howatt played are hard nosed game, while still putting up points.  He too, has epilepsy.

  11. Pakistan...why are you so bad at cricket . So we're officially done, sucks cause this is definitely Afridi's last T20. Go England? Go Australia? Go West Indies? Maybe just Go New Zealand, me thinks they're taking it all this year. Pakistan and Canucks. Boy I sure know how to pick em, eh
  12. .(Although...we all know India wins every single time) I was not very happy...mainly cause I chose to wake up early even though I knew Pakistan was gonna lose(never give up hope though) That damn Kholi
  13. I always say to myself "Why would I watch the Pakistan vs India cricket match, we always lose" but I every time I still end up watching it. Waste of 4 hours cause of course we lost. :picard:

      You really are too cute.  It must be the big pink ears!  :lol:. Alf is a character from an '80s TV show of the same name.  He was known to like cats.  (It was a sad attempt at humor)

      Mrs. Alf, like you, loves music.  She even listens to Beiber, which means old man Alf does too.  She studied piano, guitar, and other instruments as a child, many years ago.  I really do love listening to her play.  Musical Instruments seem to sound better when the person playing is beautiful too.  Mrs. Alf plays beautifully.

      Awe thanks Alf! Hahahahahahaha, oh my. I feel so very young right now. That's actually really funny :lol:. Piano actually wasn't really my passion when growing up, I didn't really like any instruments. But a couple of years ago I just really got into it. Its so beautiful, sounds beautiful, and I wanted to learn. Got myself a keyboard and tried to self teach my self. Goes well sometimes, then the other times its just :picard:. Mrs.Alf sounds amazing! So very jealous, I would love to know how to play a bunch of instruments. Also, the way you talk about your wife is so adorable, it warms my heart. Both of you are amazing! 

  15. To the people who watch The Flash: Please tell me I'm not the only one who really wants Caitlin and Barry to get together?

      Sorry all I had passed out last night!

       

      Green-There's just so many scene's amazing scenes with both of them that shows that they'd be a great couple!

       

      BIB- Agreed with season 1, all of their scenes were fantastic. Season two, Jay came into the picture in the first episode. And its been Jay and Caitlin all along since then, now that he's out of the picture(hopefully), I can see Barry and Caitlin interacting more and having more amazing scenes. 

       

      Ghost-Grant grew on me! First episode I was like eh, but now I've actually enjoyed him as The Flash! Do NOT like Ezra Miller, terrible casting choice.

       

      Dazzle- So many things filmed in Vancouver, yet we can never run into any celebs...Although Supernatural was filmed at my house and I got to meet Jared Padalecki, so that was fun!.Would die to meet Stephen Amell though. 

       

      Blueberries-Ugh, UGH. Oliver and Felicity make me wanna throw up now. I loved them earlier, now I feel like forwarding all of their scenes. 

       

      AV- Joe with Well's daughter??....what. Cisco should be with Lisa Snart. They're so weird, but also so cute together. 

    3. AV.

      Honestly, tell her to do it. The majority of guys will appreciate it.

      @Apricot

       

      I'd be ecstatic. Since in this society it's mainly guys asking females out and taking that step. However, I'd first think "Is she nice? Has she been in past relationships? etc etc. If a female asked me out and I don't exactly like the characteristics of her, I'd respectfully decline. However, if she does represent the qualities I prefer, hell yeah. That goes for woman too I'm pretty sure if a guy asks her out. It's the same thing for everyone. 

       

      It's just that in this society you see more guys going for that next step than females would. blah blah blah. 

    4. Apricot

      Apricot

      Ohhh, I see what you mean now. I don't think anything should change, regardless of who is asking who out. People are looking at their potential partner, someone who could become something, a husband/wife. I do believe that people need to see something in the person, then go further. Its just one date, that's how people can figure out if the person is suitable for them. Can't really figure it out by not going on one date. If it works, it works. I personally think that it shouldn't matter who asks who out. The guy asks the girl or the girl asks the guy, it shouldn't matter. If the guy isn't taking initiative, then the girl can and it shouldn't make a difference. 

  17. Woah woah woah woah, Suits finale tho...

  19. Mods, be safe.

      Listen to the song and watch her performance Ghost. I guarantee it'll make you cry

      He's the best player in the game now. Best shooter of all time.

    3. 87Crosby

      87Crosby

      Greatest shooter of all time. Saw a chart comparing him to other shooters and his statline for this year is an outlier. 

    4. BI3KSA-

      BI3KSA-

      If you look at purely just stats, without judging off differences in eras and how parts of his game, like how dynamic he is, you get a different picture from reality. He isnt just breaking 3s records, hes shooting from nearly half court. Impossible to guard that, Best shooter of all time. 

  22. I had a dream that JB traded Horvat :mellow:. I'm legitimately scared that he will trade him one day. So scared

      I wish I knew, I woke up as soon as I got the notification that Horvat got traded. I got so scared that it actually woke me up. 

       

      Also, I have so many jokes but I don't wanna get suspended. The word before Benning, hilarious.

      Hah, I totally meant to write the word "did" whoops and there is no way to make that not look intentional.

      benning won't trade bo... if that where going to happen he would of done last year for the draft.....

  23. My goodness gracious. Some of Mortal Kombat's X's fatalities are so so so so so so so so gross. 

  24. Thinking of going skydiving to ring in my 25th birthday. Has anyone tried skydiving?

      I went a couple years ago, it's a blast.  Would recommend.

      It's actually really extremely safe as well.

      Quote

      "According to the United States Parachuting Association, there are an estimated 3 million jumps per year, and the fatality count is only 21 (for 2010). That's a 0.0007% chance of dying from a skydive, compared to a 0.0167% chance of dying in a car accident (based on driving 10,000 miles)"

       

    3. BI3KSA-

      Its an absolutely amazing experience, especially if the drop zone is beautiful. Definitely some bucket list level $&!# 

  25. Deadpool was a fantastic movie!

    1. Tigs

      I agree. It will most likely be the best movie of the year in my opinion.

      I don't see the hype in it at all!  Trailers looks dull and random and doesn't intrigue me to see at all
