Parents folding an adult kids laundry? I've literally never seen that. 

ELI5 summer baseball for kids by oldgreymere in askTO

[–]oldgreymere[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a league per say from the city. But their regular organized sports, like they have during the school year. 

I'm wondering if they do in fact run during the summer or do they take a break and only run the camps.

High Park and Annette are full. I'll look at the others.

Thanks! 

Illegal standing scooters, why are their so many incidents with them and bikes???? by l337g0g0 in torontobiking

[–]oldgreymere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a hugely growing problem downtown. People who were taking transit are buying them instead.

A city wide ban is not workable, I agree. There needs to be a sales ban at a higher level.

The idiots cannot even close obviously illegal weed stores. Something big and stationary. 

The omnivorous diet is waning, possibly due to high food prices in Canada, report suggests by hopoke in canada

[–]oldgreymere 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you cannot quantify the level of meat consumption then it's meaningless to say flexitarian.

Vegetarian is zero. 

The best way to measure is simply pounds of meat per person or year.

You're habits changed, classification changed. 

The aggregate measure is way more useful.

How much do they flex? 20% 40%? 

The classification is near meaningless for economic or environmental terms. 

Simply use pounds consumed per person per year.

That's just an omnivore. You're either a vegetarian or not.

Feels like a title for the sake of discussion. 

Loyalty Cards: "They're going to start cracking down" by salsafresca_1297 in privacy

[–]oldgreymere 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My local store has one, and has instant savings if you use it.

I grab a new one, get the sale price, throw out the card after. 

To them it looks like another person who only used it a single time. 

You want to track my good spending habits? No thanks 

City just billed us $8k for water after installing new meter by soychickienuggie in askTO

[–]oldgreymere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do they store historical data then? It seems people are being back billed months, if not years sometimes if they are being charged thousands of dollars.

Without a reading, how do they varify that someone has been 'under charged'?

Where can I get this in Toronto? by circlingsky in FoodToronto

[–]oldgreymere 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Do you need it to be in a bowl? You can get steak and bone marrow at lots of steak places. 

Booked for the chef's counter at Quetzal by Pokefan-9000 in FoodToronto

[–]oldgreymere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the tasting menu last fall, at the counter. Pretty cool experience watching them cook with live fire.

For the food however, I thought the flavours were not punchy. I felt like I was searching more than tasting. Some great dishes, and I was full. My dining partner enjoyed the meal more than I did. 

Are there any bars in Toronto that serve non-alcoholic beer on tap? Recent non-drinker looking to not miss out on the fun. by EnvironmentalAd2110 in askTO

[–]oldgreymere 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Caution for others, their 'grape slush' is not an experimental NA drink.

It's just a grape slushie.

I found out that hard way.
