Chris19 Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 It sucks when the main roads aren't plow. Heck the whole Kingsway wasn't even plow yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuckyHermit Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 (edited) Don't forget to include yourself in that category I've tried being nice in public, but that never works here. Hell, even when I don't do anything, things don't go well. I've had someone swear at me randomly in downtown Vancouver before, and once, a woman spat on me as I was waiting for a bus. These types of incidents happen so regularly here now during these past several years that I've come to expect them. I've noticed that people around here don't even look at anyone else anymore; everyone's in their own little private bubbles. So imagine my surprise when even the rudest person in LA's bad parts was more polite than some Vancouverites I've come across. I don't know about that LA comment though, I suppose it depends on where you are... Downtown LA. Near Macy's Plaza and Union Station, mostly, and sometimes in South Central.

BuckyHermit Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 (edited) hey can someone tell me what bus to take to metrotown from richmond, i'm bored and noones taking me anywhere Option 1 (costs 2 zones): Take any bus to Richmond Centre and transfer to 430 Metrotown Station. Option 2 (costs 1 zone): Take any bus to Richmond Centre, transfer to 410 22nd Street Station, take it to the SkyTrain station, and then SkyTrain to Metrotown.

gmen81 Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Delivering mail in this snow is not very fun, also considering it's a super heavy day. Now I'm sitting at my relay box waiting for my mail to arrive. I appreciate the people who shovel their driveway, the people who don't F U Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Common sense Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Option 1 (costs 2 zones): Take any bus to Richmond Centre and transfer to 430 Metrotown Station. Option 2 (costs 1 zone): Take any bus to Richmond Centre, transfer to 410 22nd Street Station, take it to the SkyTrain station, and then SkyTrain to Metrotown. Both options unreliable today. Take a car, unless you're 15 and you don't have a car, in which case stay at home and tough it out.

That's What She Said Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Ditchmound is indeed pathetic. I don't think I ever saw one plow or salt truck on the streets last night. Believe me, I think I logged more road time yesterday than all Richmond trucks. Any updates this morning, esp. in the Seafair area? I've actually seen many plow trucks the past week. Problem is, they're not actually plowing, they're just driving around doing absolutely nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's What She Said Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Question to everyone: Who does the shoveling in your house? I've always thought that it was more of a guy's job but my dad and my brother won't do it so I always end up being stuck with the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
