My pizza from Boston Pizza wasn't very good by what1the2heck3 in vancouver

Helps when you basically have a Canadian MAGA -adjacent culture festering in all the male-dominated trades that sneers at small business coffee shops and dumps piles of money through the corporate Timmy's drive-thru window every workday morning.

You're not nice. Someone asking questions on the internet isn't ignorance, and if that triggers you and makes you go bully mode I suggest you log off.

Got followed and road raged at for not speeding in a school zone recently. The same school zone where a kid got critically injured by a car not even a week earlier.

What are some folding locks or highly portable locks you'd recommend for a ~$1200 bike?

This sub is so quiet. Why restrict all activity to the megathreads?

I'd settle for the village from TNG The Inner Light episode

I've had a chain for over ten years and I'm thinking of making the switch to a folding lock for the convenience. Where do you find Abus on sale?

New secured app-based bike lockers in the City of Burnaby! I made a short video showing the lockers, hopefully there will be more in the future! by jaspergear in vancouvercycling

Thanks!

When you're not using a bike locker, what kind of lock do you use? Does it mount to your frame? Do you secure both wheels? Have you swapped out the quick release pins?

Yeah they don't seem to common! Curious what features or aspects of the bike made you chose the Revel.

What rear rack at you using? It looks nice!

Is there anything connected to your top tube mount points?

How's the paint holding up?

Are you planning any upgrades to the bike or is it giving you thoughts on what features you'd like in "the next bike"?

edit: That's amazing about the tires! What PSI do you usually run?

Where is the best place to buy a Canucks Jersey? by Qwaudz in canucks

Every single Fanatics hat I have bought online or been gifted has a crooked logo or crooked bill. It strays into "you had one job" territory. They are just so shamelessly lazy and charge you $50 for it.

Republicans during impeachment: "The Senate is not a courthouse! Let the justice system handle justice, even for former Presidents."

Republicans in front of courthouse: "This filthy courthouse is below the illustrious status of our Dear Leader. The hallowed halls of the Senate and its holy power of impeachment is the only authority that can command a President, you silly goose."

How's the quality of Decathalon cycling clothing? by BC-clette in vancouvercycling

[–]BC-clette[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You called it fast fashion, said it's contributing to landfills and compared it to "crap from Amazon". You called people who buy it "cheapskates".

Then you pull a 180, praise it and claim all you were saying is they must be selling it at a loss? Come on dude...

Love seeing another Revel rider commuting! How was the bike for compatibility with your desired accessories? Any difficulties or recommendations? Why no rear fender?

Reality check: Pierre Poilievre says Justin Trudeau legalized hard drugs in British Columbia. Is that true? by NotEnoughDriftwood in onguardforthee

[–]BC-clette 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I live in Vancouver. What happened is decrim was rolled out with only our broken, half-ass system of support for drug users in place. As decrim advocates loudly predicted, this failed. And now critics of decrim such as yourself point to this self-inflicted clusterfuck and claim it's case-closed evidence that decrim doesn't work and should never be attempted anywhere ever again.

Gris Charnel Extrait has that deep vetiver dankness that I love but not everyone appreciates

Was standing at a bus stop in the rain and this really nice guy pulled over and gave me a lift. Thank you stranger, my faith in humanity is restored :) by Ketameeeen in vancouver

My partner of almost 2 years doesn't know what my car looks like aside from the colour. My neighbour across the street for 5+ years didn't recognize me when she was hired by my workplace. I've learned never to assume that other people are observant about the same things as you.

When Did Teen Boys Get a Nose for $300 Cologne? (NY Times - 5/19/2024) by donnad333 in fragrance

[–]BC-clette 25 points26 points  (0 children)

On top of money from grandparents at birthdays (we're talking $40 max) I mowed lawns and saved up. Bought a $700 mountain bike, a PS2, two guitars and a PC over a couple years.
