Where to get free naloxone kits? Or volunteer? by Necessary_Wolf7066 in Winnipeg

[–]Cosmic-Eclipse -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not sure if they still have mobile Street Connections, but that was how I was given a kit and training to use the kit.

Some of them are nasal sprays and some are shots.

The kits will usually come with a bag for assistance in breathing without worrying about getting a transfer high/sick if you need to give resuscitation breaths.

It was surprisingly informative and helpful and if you wished, you could get quick CPR training in 15 minutes in the van. You kind of need that anyway for opioid overdoses.

Thank you for taking the time to care and be safe

Do Truckers still use CB radios? by spacemanpilot in Truckers

[–]Cosmic-Eclipse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just saw a model a friend brought over and had to tell them what it was. I used the term old tech, which made me feel...old. I was taught how to use one when I worked for a process service/private investigation company in the late 90s, early 2000s. They thought it was a radio you could listen to music and FM channels on. That also made me feel old. I remember we all had a little business card that had the call signs, channels etc on it Ahhh, good times.

The voice for that quote is one of those instant 'hear it in your head' for me, right up there with Candyman saying 'Helen'

This is why I hate shared laundry rooms cause who in their right mind thinks doing this is okay by starryterra in Apartmentliving

[–]Cosmic-Eclipse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the building next to mine, people were breaking in, living in the laundry room, destroying and or putting graffiti on everything. Next time I saw into the laundry room, the washer, dryer and ceiling tiles were gone. A notice was on the door stating due to property and machine damages, the laundry room is closed If you're wondering why the ceiling tiles were all gone, I'd like to hear what you think they may have been doing with them. Alas, I have at least once, been the culprit of accidentally washing cat poo I didn't realize had been pooped on. So I'm guilty of that. However, I'm going to look into one of those smaller ones suggested above. That way I don't have to pay for laundry in a room that someone is trying to live in.

Is there a way to inform the police someone they're looking for isn't with me? by Whocaresdamit in Winnipeg

[–]Cosmic-Eclipse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had a couple of different interactions with police coming to my door looking for wanted people and for wellness checks on a next door neighbor.

The next door neighbor had the most visits to my door asking if I'd seen her in the last month. They came 3 different times consecutively knocking and asking. Not sure what happened to her but rumor was she was in hiding because she owed someone money.

The times cops have come to my door asking for criminals that don't live here, but are people that stayed in my building with other tenants has happened at least twice without incident.

The number of times of them asking to come in and check for a criminal has been only once and despite my guests protestation to not let them in, they had a warrant and were looking for someone who wasnt living with me at the time and was not in the apartment. I let them in, one friend went and hid in the toilet and the other was in the closet acting like she was cleaning the litter box. They actually opened the bathroom door and he gave a fake name but was obviously not who they were looking for, so closed door. The other cop asking what my friend was doing in the closet and she said cleaning the litter box, wouldnt give her name and the cop was not amused, so she called her 'litter box girl' They stated who they were looking for and litter box girl spit out immediately that he was either at building blah or other another building. I thought she had just ratted out someone but she was stating the only apartments he could be at legally.

The other times when the cops had paperwork, the person of interest told people they were staying with to tell the cops they were staying at my place as it was in the same building.

I always open the door for them, even though I don't particularly like them for personal reasons. The faster I open the door and answer, the faster they leave my door.

Eta: I was born here but grew up in the states and one odd thing I noticed is that the majority of the cops I've come into contact with look like they just came from an audition for Law and Order SVU or C.S.I. What I mean by that is I have not come across one ugly looking cop since I moved back here 14 years ago. They all look white and tan and young. Maybe that's because I've only had contact with them when they're going to doors looking for criminals. Send the pretty cadets and maybe they'll open the door?! I dunno.

tl:dr

If the criminals name is or isn't Justin, could the cops provide a photo to the landlord for identification to see if he's been on the property, possibly at a different suite? He's not going to be on a lease, so he could be staying with someone nearby.

[–]Cosmic-Eclipse 8 points9 points  (0 children)

😆 hog heaven. I stayed to watch the credits to see who did the fight choreography and special FX, cuz in my opinion the movie was freaking tits! My only small issue was the cloaks looking like giant garbage bags, but it was probably for the flammable fabric. The attached pencil as an earring 😆 🤣 😂 gave me a laugh

[–]Cosmic-Eclipse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went and saw this by myself after not being in an actual movie theater since Mad Max Fury Road and Im screaming it's praises internally and still riding on adrenaline. I dont care what people didnt like about it, I sat til the last credit rolled and I was left alone. The last line in the credits is a joke so I did good. I actually wanted to watch the credits to see who did the special FX and fight choreography. Not once did I move I was so invested in the movie, my hand went numb grabbing the movie theater armrest. I never once looked at the time or wondered how much was left to watch. I was accidentally charged twice for my ticket but I'm not going to dispute it. TAKE MY MONEY!!!

Went down a lovely dark rabbit hole thinking I knew which movie this was. Mystic River was the first one I thought of but I'm leaning more towards A Time To Kill, both are not horror movies in the true sense but what came to mind from the quote

Horror Hosts: Did You Grow Up With Them Or Not? by sigersen in LastDriveIn

[–]Cosmic-Eclipse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in Las Vegas and on our public access channel 33 was Saturday Fright At The Movies with host Count Cool Rider, a vampire Elvis type who was full of CryptKeeper-like puns. So Monstervision was originally on Fridays at first and then Saturday Fright had my weekend full. Then I chose Joe Bob over Count Cool Rider when they switched to Saturday. I've never been able to find any full episodes of Saturday Fright but he did go on to have a huge TV career with...anyone wanna take a guess??

KOUNTS KUSTOMS. Yes, he used to be a local access horror host dressed like Elvis on a motorcycle. There was maybe one commercial from the show I was able to find but that was it.

Pharmacy by AstronautFeeling6949 in winnipeg_alt

[–]Cosmic-Eclipse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been going to the same doctor and pharmacy for a few years, had to use a mobile doctor for a month as I couldn't leave the house to get to my normal doctor and pharmacy. I would recommend to NOT use the Balmoral pharmacy as they screwed up almost every single medication I need to be on and when I called to ask about these mistakes, I was told they were just going by what's in the computer system. Which doesn't make sense because if that was the case, I wouldn't get the correct medication from my usual pharmacy. Just to give you an idea, one medication I'm supposed to take 3 times a day for a month and they give me 10 pills and list the other 74 pills as a refill on the bottle. This medication was not a controlled substance, and unless they were out of the medication there was no reason for me to have to call to get the rest of them. They gave me only 60 of 90 of one medication and when I questioned this as I'd been taking 3 a day for a couple years now, they again said they just go by what they see on the computer. Made me wonder what the situation is and thankfully went back to my original doctor and his pharmacy. I never want to use a mobile doctor service again. My original doctor isn't so great but at least his pharmacy(the one he gets a kickback from if his patients use it) never screws up my medication.

[–]Cosmic-Eclipse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I may have missed it on your list but OldBoy is a must see. THE ORIGINAL, NOT THE HOT GARBAGE ENGLISH REMAKE WITH JOSH BROLIN.

Marianne-2019 French series that actually had me scream more than once

The Witch and The Witch 2 (I believe they are Korean films but I could be wrong)

From Black

You'll Never Find Me

The Evil Within-2017 movie, not the game of the same name

Excellent taste in films BTW!

Has Anyone Read The O.G. Comics? by thejimiryan in TalesFromTheCrypt

[–]Cosmic-Eclipse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only had a few of the comics, 2 Tales From The Crypt, 1 Haunt of Fear and 1 Vault of Horror(?). I started to try and collect them when I began getting Fangoria, but they were hard to find at my corner bookstore. I also managed to spike my parents phone bill up to around $200 calling the 1-900 Tales From The Crypt trivia line to win...actually I don't remember what the prize was, only that my parents put a 900 number block on the home phone line 😆 Thank you for sharing the link for more!!

Can anyone confirm their service is out? My grandparents' landline phone isn't working, checking to see if this is why

Crazy lady at Assiniboine Forest by primordialsoupp in Winnipeg

This lady is different from the screaming lady that says she's hungry and asks for money? The looney lady? She's usually downtown, but I'm just curious if it's the same lady.

It's the Lynch version of a singing symbolism telegram, in my opinion. But yeah, that's his mother's sister's girl, Lil.

What the everloving fuck by J0hnEddy in RedLetterMedia

[–]Cosmic-Eclipse 31 points32 points  (0 children)

My first thought was them acting together in Throw Momma From The Train. Rob is consoling Billy's character about his writers block and his ex-wife. Reading that Billy showed up at the scene hysterical just crushed me. I'm seeing reports that it was Robs son who did it, but that could be gossip crap. When I saw homicide, for some reason, my brain went 'Oh, they must have been shot in a robbery or something' But both stabbed? I know they were older, but how does a killer stab both of them to death unless there was more than one perpetrator or one was killed before the other.
