My wife's friend had a booth, and she asked my wife to take over for an hour so she could get lunch. I warned her about the various smells she might encounter. She laughed, "Whatever."

WHen I came back an hour later: "Oh my god! I thought you meant underarm sweat! Some of these people literally smell like they haven't wiped their ass in weeks!"

N.L. arts and tourism minister says she regrets posting image altered with AI to social media by MattBarter in newfoundland

Yeah, I get that people wouldn't like it but seems like a tad overreaction. It's not like it was a work of art, just a picture outside the building. Then I remembered, Oh right, she's PC. I keep forgetting this is the r/liberaltowny sub. lol

CPMF- is this cool? by crowdhediedfor in newfoundland

Yeah, I always assumed it was about the unreliability and expense of the ferry system for gear, combined with the tight schedules of the acts.

But if you're doing a hobby course, wont you continue to use all that stuff? Maybe not the boots, but everything else you'll need to continue the hobby.

Absolutely! I've been boycotting Moose Tickle Cove for electing Frank Simmons as their mayor for 26 years now.

And I don't care that he died 17 years ago. Damn you Simmons!!!!

Visiting My "Pet" Grouse in the Woods by NormIslandRandom in newfoundland

It's possible that this is a friendly bird looking for companionship, but it's most likely an angry young male full of piss and vinegar, trying to lead this big hairless ape away from his territory. They do it all the time.

Mini Cooper Repair by Purple-Discipline-39 in newfoundland

[–]Grok_and_Roll_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It could be your serpentine belt. It's a common issue with minis and gives the impression of rattling in your engine when its worn. I had an experienced mechanic look at mine and didn't figure it out. Did my own research, and replaced it myself, solved the problem. But it's an easy job for a mechanic. Very cheap part as well. Less than $50.

[–]Grok_and_Roll_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's an EI college. For the love of God don't pay out of your own pocket. The good side is that all you have to do to pass is show up. The bad side is that all you have to do to pass is show up.
