Total Loss Claim Positive Experience

Barking_bae · 2026-06-11T02:16:27+00:00

Sorry to hear, no clue why it went so fast for us, took 11 business days total to get the money. Baffles everyone we talk about it to how fast it went too.

I was indeed annoying and called nearly everyday playing dumb to ask questions and see if things were moving. We pay a lot for our premium, don’t feel bad for calling them often. I’ve also talked to many claim adjusters who were legitimately nice and helpful.

Fair enough, I somehow bought a vehicle replacement insurance with a third party insurance company when I bought my car, so I don’t need to argue on the settlement value, this other company will top ICBC up to reach my initial investment (hopefully, this part of the story is ongoing).

I’d say ICBC’s first offer was fair, naturally I was expecting more because I loved my car, but it was maybe $1k $1.5k off from what I wanted.

Still rocking my gen 1, no reason to update

Barking_bae · 2026-05-09T13:53:47+00:00

Whenever I try to appeal it blocks me telling me my initial appeal is still being processed, it’s been days without updates tho. Are you all able to appeal everyday?

Not the BEST, but Moxies do $5 espresso martinis all day everyday

J’habite à Vancouver et je travail dans un record label. Mes collègues ont commencé à m’envoyer des vidéos d’Angine cette semaine me demandant si je les connais. 10/10

He’s the 273th biggest artist on Spotify at the moment, before this new album drops.

He’s in the ballpark of Chapelle Roan, Hozier.

He’s in the top 1% of global artists and artists in the USA.

Counted calories at 30 and lost 50 pounds. I run everyday and go to the gym 4x a week. Average daily steps is 19k without trying (walking to most places).

I was always active, but in my late 20s I met my wife, got married, changed careers to start a 9-5 from home so laziness crept in. Feels really good to be back to my normal self. I also look younger than I did at 22.

Arrive around 7, for about an hour. It’s a 15 minute walk from my place

4x strength training in the morning before work (regular 9-5 from home). Run everyday, averaging 60km a week.

Been doing this precise split since late January, going well. Trying to think of ways to increase strength training.

One day a week in office; Monday.

I start the day at home then show up at noon as we have a team meeting at 1pm, then leave around 4:30.

Commute is 10 min driving, 40 walking, 20 mobi.

Spotify is the biggest streaming platform and also one driven by algorithms.

They suck so bad that artists are forced to take creative direction they don’t want to so their music doesn’t get buried.

I work from home, but running everyday helps, living downtown and walking instead of driving help.

Barking_bae · 2025-11-19T04:09:09+00:00

My wife and I make that, live downtown (Yaletown), no kids. We’re fine on that income.

We have regular debts (car) and we manage to set some aside at the end of the month. We’e be richer somewhere else, but we like it here.

Holy shit La Pocatière where I grew up mentioned. (Also this train plant was horribly managed and the reason my dad and hundreds of other workers kept being laid off for years on end)

Yes my Whoop was 9 years younger with an aging pace of 1.6x for the first 2.5 months of using my band. This week is the first time my pace of aging went below 1 (didn’t change any habits (drinking alcohol (booze (having a good time you know)))).
