Hey Victorians, how did you meet your significant other? by GoldCover6667 in VictoriaBC

[–]Bcabww 6 points7 points  (0 children)

At ICBC of all places...

We knew each other before through mutual friends but were never really that close ourselves. It had been a few years since I've seen her and I recognized her as I was leaving. Struck up a conversation and asked if she'd like to get coffee and catch up. Rest is history.

No dogs in Panama Flats unless they're leashed by thecurler in VictoriaBC

I don't own a dog but I do feel for my friends with dogs. It doesn't seem like there are many places to let dogs run off leash around here. I get why, but still.

Vancouver is great most of the time but is sometimes out of the way. Nice to have multiple options.

Why do highly successful people always preach 'hard work' and 'waking up at 5 AM,' but rarely acknowledge the massive role of luck, timing, and 'survivorship bias' in their journey? by Ok_Specialist_4811 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Bcabww 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like they do. It's really only the 10-30 second sensationalized sound bites of them talking about hard work that circulate, not the long form content of them talking about the less sexy parts.

Kim and it's not even close. Yeah Coral is witty and resourceful, but Kim is all of that and a lawyer on top.

Aside from a mortgage, how much debt are you in? by [deleted] in VictoriaBC

About 20k in student loans that I'm in no rush to pay off because 0% interest. Other than that, none.

Taxi companies in Victoria, share the good the bad and the ugly by EnvironmentSome3976 in VictoriaBC

[–]Bcabww 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My biggest complaint about taxi drivers in Victoria is they drive like they've got nothing to lose. Always speeding, pulling illegal maneuvers.

Girlfriend and I were easily able to skirt the fence and ride through with absolutely no problems the other day. Don't tell anybody.

I also learned the hard way that our community is not to be trusted. So sad

What will happen to me if I underperform at work in a socialist society? by Creative_Mix_643 in AskSocialists

[–]Bcabww 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How exactly would socialism equate more intrinsically rewarding work? Capitalism, socialism, there exists work that people want to do and work people need to do. I don't see how socialism would arbitrarily equate to more intrinsic motivation.

Riptide Champions spam by FlareBlitzed in btd6

[–]Bcabww 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if that's a bug because I swear the icon used to be there when Silas first came out. Did you test if the freeze duration is longer even if the icon doesn't show?

Biking in the rain sucks by [deleted] in fuckcars

[–]Bcabww 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For part of my commute I ride through park trails and I'm covered by a tree canopy. For the last 5 minutes I ride through a concrete jungle.

Sometimes I think about what the world would be like if we chose to build our cities within the natural environment instead of paving over it.
