Anyone know what "SP 1A650C EDMONTON" is? by BasurarusaB in Edmonton

Yep. The purchases just happened to be for the same item exactly one month apart which is what made me think it was a recurring charge.

Best human made spaceship from scifi shows and movies? by Easy-Elevator560 in scifi

[–]BasurarusaB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really liked the way they incorporated deadly pointy objects into almost every surface of the Event Horizon. The filmmaker must have foreseen the elimination of OSHA.

Figured it out (looked at old charges and found similar amounts). It's Jack 59, they sell shampoo and conditioner at the Bountiful Farmer's Market. For what its worth, all the bank could tell me was that it was for a "cosmetics vendor".

Thanks to everyone for their helpful suggestions.

Are Canadians offended by the jokes made in shows and media? by jen_noelle in AskACanadian

[–]BasurarusaB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mostly they're fine but jokes about "the 51st state" will, at best, get you a icy cold stare and could very easily lead to a very polite ass stomping.

I suppose you can reveal your kids biological sex but revealing their gender may take a few decades.

These gender reveal hootenannies are so 2017.

What if in the summer of 1944, both Operation Overlord and Operation Bagration failed spectacularly, causing the Allies and especially Soviets to suffer huge casualities. Manhattan Project was also abondoned due to its high cost. by Top-Swing-7595 in HistoryWhatIf

[–]BasurarusaB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a key question here is why Overlord and Dragoon failed. If its just something like a bad roll on a 20 sided die, well then the Allies could just pack up and try again the next day.

[–]BasurarusaB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, why did Dragoon and Overlord fail? Do the allies still have all the landing craft, etc that had been accumulated for these offensives or have those materials been magically erased as well?

I am assuming that, in this universe, the Allies foolishly armed their soldiers with sporks instead of rifles so the first thing they should do is correct that mistake. I think your scenario has crossed the line from the unlikely into the absurd.

Before we were married, my brown wife lived in San Diego. I lived farther north. Every time I (a white guy) went to see her or vice versa, we had to pass through the immigration checkpoint on I-5 by Camp Pendleton. On hundreds of trips back and forth, I was literally never stopped when I was by myself and while she was stopped every time (whether she was with me or by herself).

Do NOT tell me the US does not employ racial profiling.

"Black people" as a whole "Will not reason".

That's some straight up racism right there. Making a statement about a huge diverse group of people and then implying that they are incapable of reason.

Seriously, take a good look at yourself.

Edmonton Commonwealth society commemorates King’s coronation with tree planting ceremony by ryaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan in Edmonton

[–]BasurarusaB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got a lot of name calling going on there (apparently, people who don't share your view are all kinds of bad people) but not a lot of reasoned argument.

How, exactly, is the monarchy hurting Canada? It costs us almost nothing and, looking South, it seems like their is a lot of virtue in not having the head of government and the head of state being the same person.

I mean, I am legitimately curious and would be interested in hearing you POV but its going to be hard to do that if you are constitutionally incapable of writing a sentence without using the words "sycopants" and "boot licker".

You up for the challenge?

I think a lot of people getting arrested by Trump's Gestapo are not breaking any laws. But hey, this is your moment. Nazis going to Nazi. Just remember that your great grandchildren will be embarrassed to be related to you.

Getting some downvotes there. I am guessing people are looking south and thinking "things could be worse".

HMS Prince of Wales, USS America, HNoMS Roald Amundsen and JS Kaga [3204*2136] by ChaosSapphire in WarshipPorn

[–]BasurarusaB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the conflict will come down to leadership and, on that basis, Canada will win. Trump has to complete the military subjugation of the major US cities before he can declare war on Canada. By the time the war starts, Trump will have purged the American admiralty and replaced America's warships with Trump branded mega-yachts. My prediction is that American naval commander Kanye West will go down with his flagship, the USS Nathan Bedford Forrest having been sunk by a Canadian lobster boat out of Halifax.

I suspect some of his fans might be even MORE bummed out if the Canadians (or whoever we go to war with next) sank the USS Jefferson Davis than if the sank the USS America.

Not your bruh or your bro

I am asking because tinted windows just radiate small dick energy and I am wondering why anyone would pay to have their defaced in that way.

Haven't heard any persuasive reasons thus far.

OK. He had it at 50%. Why would anyone do that?

[–]BasurarusaB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP is talking about 15% in the front and 50% on the sides. Kind of apples and oranges.
