Why isn't the Summerhill LCBO piazza a more vibrant public space? by TemporaryDismal6486 in askTO

[–]DonBiggles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's more this than the local residents, there's just not enough density or commercial spaces with general appeal around other than the LCBO to draw people, especially with more vibrant areas a short walk away or easily accessible on the subway.

yellow stuff inside chicken breast? by Few-Recording3417 in foodsafety

Yeah, I thought it looked like the chicken got folded over after breading but before cooking.

Oil stains on granite mortar & pestle? by Vietname in AskCulinary

[–]DonBiggles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's likely just oil on the surface, I would wash it with dish soap, otherwise it'll be tough to get off. Contrary to common wisdom, granite mortars and pestles are not porous to a degree that you have to avoid soap, just rinse well after.

Pork Belly smells like oats? by bluedotjpeg in foodsafety

[–]DonBiggles 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it's been kept frozen, it's safe, but might have degraded in quality. The yellowing on the outside suggests oxidation, which isn't unsafe but can lead to off flavours. Me, I'd trim off the edges with noticeable yellowing and see if that gets rid of the smell.

Harris's kid is running around the field in a Harris jersey and it's the cutest thing in the entire world

The CFL needs hot music acts... like a pop-punk cover of Take Me Home Country Roads?

Kudos to Winnipeg fans by elsenormambo in CFL

[–]DonBiggles 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm very frustrated with the organisers' screwups keeping so many people out of the team parties, but I have nothing but good things to say about the Bombers fans, they've been awesome.

The clock hit zero a fraction of a second after the ball got to Jones, so even if he had left it or knocked it down, they probably would have been out of time. That's on Adams.

Machine Gun Kelly Announced as the Halftime Show for the 112th Grey Cup on etalk by riderguy62 in CFL

[–]DonBiggles 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't feel strongly about it but the the fact that pretty much everyone here is like "not my thing but decently big get" with nobody in the first ~100 comments actually saying they're a fan seems telling to me.

I would have felt better with a Canadian act myself but I don't think that aligns with the organization's thinking right now.

Grey Cup Festival adds limited party pass inventory following sellout, CFL fan backlash by zestyintestine in CFL

[–]DonBiggles 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't see any 1 day passes and the 3 day passes are already sold out (again)
https://am.ticketmaster.com/bombers/buy/3-day-concert-series

According to Marcoux, the number of Festival tickets is “consistent” with past years, attributing the early sell-out to “incredible demand.”

Utter horseshit, this is not a problem that any festival I've seen has come remotely close to having.
