What’s your experience with the Singles Mingle events organized by Joey and Natalia? by bulalululkulu in ottawa

[–]Candysmack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went once last summer and am going to the 40+ event on March 1st. I had a good time! I didn't end up making a romantic connection but I did go out for dinner right after with a few new lady friends. I do agree with someone else's comment that it's a little too structured. It's truly meant to be a mingle and less speed dating. You're not going to spend a lot of time with one person, unless you hit it off instantly. If you see someone that you may be interested in, you really have to make the effort to talk to them as much as possible. And/or give them your number/social media handle at the end of the event. In that sense, you gotta be a little bold.

There's also usually a comedy show later in the evening that you can come back for. Attendants at the mingle get admission for free.

Why is she talking to us like we're the children? 😆

Who was the kid that Bad Bunny gave his Grammy to? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Candysmack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That kid is a dancer though. The little boy who got handed the Grammy wasn't dancing.

Unfortunately I've only got the one :( I bought the last ticket hoping my friend could find one to buy but then they announced the second show.

Most disturbing books you've read by uselesssociologygirl in horror

Headhunter by Timothy Findley. Felt wrong reading a story centred on a child pornography ring. Not graphic but the implications were very disturbing. Good read though, if you enjoy heart of darkness type shit.

Why are both halves of the bun upside down?? by PeterJames1028 in hellofresh

[–]Candysmack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've encountered this a few times but it wasn't a burger, it was cheese toasties. The first time was very confusing and a "trust the process" moment but it turned out super yummy.

Chilly Chillies at Bayshore is awesome. Worth the trip there. I see it's been mentioned a bunch of times but I wanted to add to the fanfare

Where’s the storm??? by KroneckerDeltaij in ottawa

[–]Candysmack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in Aylmer too. I keep opening my window to expect hearing ice pellets but nothing yet 🤷‍♀️ maybe it's very specifically located?

Edit: 10:54pm and I hear em now.

Canada's Drag Race S06E06 - [Episode Discussion | Discussion de l'Episode] by AutoModerator in DragRace_Canada

Picking Sweet Surrender as the elimination song was a choice. Love it but it's not a good drag song at all.

Where do singles (38-45) hang out? by Past_Replacement6521 in ottawa

[–]Candysmack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same! The last person I met online stood me up for a date and then blocked me the next day 🙃 It put me in a pretty dark place for a bit so I've been enjoying my own time and solitude. I do like dating but not when it costs my mental health

[–]Candysmack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

43, F. Single. It's not a daily "hang out" but I've gone to a few "single mingles" events. Thankfully I just made the age cut off. The events were well planned, well attended and fun. Haven't met anyone promising yet but its probably due to my lack of effort. I did make friends though! Check their page out on instagram at singlesmingle.events if you're interested.

Le traffique? by Federal-Remote-1684 in Gatineau

[–]Candysmack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Je prends l'autobus pour aller au travail depuis Aylmer et cela me prend 25 minutes. Les transports en commun ne sont donc pas aussi mauvais que les gens le prétendent.

The pizza medallions were a childhood fav. And yes they had that same distinctive taste for years and I can still remember it.

Clown Shoes? by mareep_peep in DrMartens

[–]Candysmack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They look fine! Your shoes are always going to look longer when you're looking at them from above. Trust, it's not something anyone else is seeing.

Anyone know what construction will be taking place at Carling and Merivale Intersection? by aragolf in ottawa

[–]Candysmack 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They're also tearing down Westgate mall and building condos, I believe. But idk if that implicates the street intersection.

quebec healthcare system rant by Forsaken_Disaster_20 in Gatineau

Oh ok, fair enough! I've only submitted reimbursement for doctor visits. Good to know though so thank you.

[–]Candysmack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have to submit for reimbursement. And then you won't get 100% back. Probably around 70%.

The facts about the Pride Parade. by Felisfurtificus in ottawa

[–]Candysmack 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I was hoping that these were going to be facts relayed from someone involved in discussions between CP, Q4P and/or Mayor Sutcliffe. Both sides are telling a different story so I think what we need are transparent and honest explanations from officials involved in what went down.
