    Well you're in the right place then! Right? :P

    Right, LOL!  I still post in off topic and sports threads.  After the last lock out I just lost what interest I had left.

    It was my job that allowed me to be on so much, night audit on front desk. It sure helped me pass that time too!

    It was back issues and later back surgery that allowed me to post so much.  Posting on CDC was part of what helped me get through it all.

    I used to be.  Had nothing to do though.  Posting killed time.

    Has Don's Cherry Just Popped?

    It's being overblown as far as I see it.  The media isn't helping any.  Throwing fuel on the fire, but that's the media for you these days. I can see how it could offend some people who are easily offended , but some are taking offended over this to a whole new level.

    Pizza joints...

    BP is such crap for the price. It tastes to me like one step up from frozen pizza. The product used to be much better. They used to use a great tangy sauce. Now it's just ketchup on cardboard.

     

    If you're going big chain/fast food, it's hard to argue against the value you get from Domino's. They've actually gone the opposite way and put in major efforts to increase the quality of their product.:

    I used to think the same until someone at work bought the triple threat and I tried it.  Frankly, I ignore the price when it comes to food, unless I am extremely disappointed.

     

    BP has upped their game recently.  Still on the expensive side though if you care about price.

    ICBC Excessive Speeding Prohibition

    in Off-Topic General

    Posted

    Running up the Coquihalla highway to Kamloops many times over the past few years I am definitely guilty of excessive speed more than once. Not saying it is right.  You don't really mention where it was or how much over you were doing.  Though there are many stretches of road with ridiculously weird speed limits that could get you in trouble going more than 30 over.

     

    I was pulled over out of Falkland last year doing 133 in a 90 area.  When the Officer walked up I was expecting an impound and a huge issue as I was on vacation.  I fully owned it when he asked why, luckily he took pity on me.  At any rate.  HUGE WAKE UP CALL!!!

     

    At any rate, own it.  I'd say contact the superintendent of motor vehicles if he hasn't already contacted you.  Talk it out with them.

    The prohibition is one thing, I'd be more worried about your car insurance going forward.

    The rock returning to smackdown was pretty cool, he's definitely got some rust on the mic. Was really hoping to hear "Faaaaayyynnallly the rock has come back to Los Angeles" but he didn't drop the line :(

     

    At least he still says "millions" 

     

     

    Hell in a cell was pretty lame minus the Becky / Banks match... Which was absolutely incredible... I pretty much fast forwarded through the rest of the ppv. 

     

    Main event was garbage, the whole "fiend" stuff is so silly, like dimmed red lights for the entire match too... Are they trying to entertain infants? 

     

    Got a little frustrated with hell in a cell so I 

    gave AEW dynamite a shot... Better than I thought actually... The athletes, especially the women definitely don't look as refined as WWE but the quality of wrestling seems solid and production is pretty decent. Sammy VS Cody was way more entertaining than I thought... Both super skilled guys and I hadn't seen Sammy wrestle before 

     

    Jim Ross on commentary is definitely my favourite part, even though he's gotten older and lost some of the "ooomph" in his voice hes still the best. Very nostalgic listening to him! 

     

    Y2J being involved and the champ is terrific too. 

     

     

     

     

    Saw Sammy wrestle at the last ECCW Ballroom Brawl.  He has talent.

    AEW Dynamite on now on TSN2!

    Watching now.  Kinda pissed though.  Set PVR to record yesterday but a soccer game was listed.  TSN / Telus changed it at sometime to AEW so it didn't record.  Managed to hit watch from beginning but now I can't FF through the commercials.  Like what I see so far.

    Justin Trudeau apologizes for wearing brownface during 2001 event at school

    in Off-Topic General

    Posted

    We are witnessing an election of how much b.s. will the voting public accept.  Trudeau blackface/brownface, whatever.  Yeah it was a different time, but even back then it was frowned upon.  For someone apparently so progressive, he should have known better.  Problem is, Trudeau is a trust fund rich kid, real life never really applied to him as his $ allowed him to do what he wanted.

    Frankly the Elizabeth May photo shop was surprising.  Did they really think no one would notice?  Or are they just going with the no one will really care if the public catches it story?

     

    Then he Conservatives went with Scheer, really?!? 

     

    Honestly, Jack Layton was the last politician that struck me as someone the people could relate to.  RIP.

     

    It is a shame that Singh and the NDP are so lost as a party.  If they could get it together, who knows.  I actually like some of his platform.  Though I like some ideas of all the 3 big players. 

     

    I really need to go back to not caring who the PM of Canada was/is.  Much harder in 2019 now that politics is shoved down our throat 24/7 by the media. 

     

    Anyways, that is my rant.  I need a drink, or 2...
