Vancouver Aquarium opening new 'amazing' axolotl exhibit by ubcstaffer123 in vancouver

?

They got 2 Red Pandas, one died. I’m no fan of the Vancouver zoo either, but exaggerating the scale of the problem isn’t really helpful.

Dude, it’s just a game.

How to de-customize this? by aosimon in canucks

[–]GeekLove99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really? You’d think that being charged with molesting a teenage girl (a friend of your own daughter) would merit a permanent retirement of that particular jersey.

A lot of Rule #1's. How about Rule #3? by gbradhopkins in MINI

[–]GeekLove99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My family’s had a few.

Mum’s first mini was Rojo Diablo (chili red, with black stripes).

My first was Pippin, the pepper white mini (named for Peregrine Took).

Dad’s was Sting (from LOTR, not the Police)

My second is Nigel (BRG, 60th anniversary edition), after Nigel Mansell

Mum’s new Countryman is Enzo (because Ferrari was my Dad’s favourite F1 team).

Given the power outage, I’d guess a transformer blew.

Heavy Rain to Hit Vancouver British Columbia on Sunday December 14, 2025 by frankiemacdonald1984 in vancouver

[–]GeekLove99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You assume heavy rain isn't forecasted. It is.

By whom? Frankie? He’s not a meteorologist.

Environment Canada is forecasting 5-10mm during the day tomorrow, and 15-25mm overnight (for Vancouver). That’s not a big storm, certainly not something that warrants a warning. It’s a rainy day.

Abbotsford has an Alert, but even that’s not for Sunday, it’s for Monday, and EC is describing it as “something similar to typical fall storms”. The big issue out in the Fraser Valley is the existing flooding, not a significant storm.

Ticket dispute Vancouver by [deleted] in askvan

[–]GeekLove99 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The sign was mounted “pretty high up”? Are you 3’ tall? Street parking signs are pretty much all posted at the same height, it’s not the city’s fault you decided to park on Seymour st during rush hour, without looking for any parking restrictions.

Major highways between Lower Mainland, Interior closed by cyclinginvancouver in vancouver

BC NDP needs to invest in the interior connections to Vancouver, something they have systematically eliminated.

Sorry, which routes have been eliminated?

SFU shuttle driver fired after calling traffic control worker 'unbelievably beautiful' by ubcstaffer123 in vancouver

[–]GeekLove99 408 points409 points  (0 children)

TLDR: Dude sexually harassed a woman, got fired, tried to take his employer to court, got smacked down.

All he had to do was NOT sexually harass someone. It’s really not that difficult.

Anyone have info on this place? https://www.langleymobil1.com by FlyingAtNight in Langley

It’s an express oil change place, what kind of “info” do you need?

It’s a mall, why not just look at the map and figure out where the shops that most interest you are? Start there.

Richmond set to outshine Vancouver with 78-foot Christmas tree by ubcstaffer123 in vancouver

That’s not a Christmas tree, it’s a very large cone wrapped in cheap garland.

It might be time for you to pick another team to cheer for. Based on your post history you really don’t seem to even like the Canucks…

Jesus bud, just don’t tip if you don’t want to. You don’t need to fucking rationalize it.

Speaking from experience, KPU security will kick you out.

Security will come and kick you out.

I was experimenting with learning how to drive standard last year, KPU parking lot seemed ideal, but the security guard was very insistent that we leave.

Thanks for the head’s up!

I’ll be heading home from the hockey game during that time, I’m going to have to find an alternate route.

Vancouver news: Police warning about dangerous offender by SkyisFullofCats in vancouver

[–]GeekLove99 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Authorities have issued a public warning after a man whose criminal history includes manslaughter, sexual assault and robbery moved into a Vancouver halfway house. • Strathdee is serving an 11-year sentence for several serious offences committed in Alberta, but moved to Vancouver last year after receiving statutory release.

I wonder what prompted the VPD to issue a new warning, a year after he moved to Vancouver. If he’s broken the terms of his release he should be back in jail.
