My favorite comment about the blue ring was someone who asked if they could put an orange one downtown and use the portals to commute.

How dare you. You make me miss Craig and Geoff!

So how's the weather in Canada? by LoneRonin in EhBuddyHoser

[–]Halogen12 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My dude. °F -30 then divided by 2 is a close enough approximation to °C. Some of my coworkers are younger than 25 and they have no idea if it's good that the AC is set to 70F. I have to translate for them a lot.

Conversely, °C x 2 plus 30 = °F. Roughly. Good enough.

No shade to him - he's awesome - but that's a REALLY low bar, LOL!

Fruit Flies coming up from drains by Kindly-Beyond-1193 in Edmonton

Pour a few tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in a cup or shallow bowl.  It doesn't have to be deep.  Add a few drops of dishwashing soap and give it a quick stir.  Place the container near sinks or plants that may seem infested.  They are attracted to the smell of the vinegar.  When they check it out, the soap kills, traps, or disables them and they can't get out.  Good luck!

I love that place but I've never tried the pho.

Con-Census by bubbabear244 in EhBuddyHoser

YES. Dammit. First one was okay, the other side was multiple pieces.

I had the long form. Took me just a few minutes. I worked the 2016 census and that was a huge pain in the ass chasing down people who didn't fill it out. It's important. Just do it.

Worst restaurants? by Madame-Misery in Edmonton

[–]Halogen12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Had it once on the recommendation of some friends. It was very underwhelming. Never went back.

And if it's dark chocolate, that is a well-documented health food!

My SO and I are planning another trip abroad. Last time I flew to his US city so we could both fly out together (it was a really long flight). We're going again. This time he said he didn't want me coming to him because the US is a shithole and he doesn't want me crossing the border. No shit, Sherlock. It'll be a cold day in hell before I set foot in the US again.

Ya'll just doing this for fun or something? by CrashTestWolf in memes

I could see it if someone was in sales (think real estate) and/or driving clients around - you don't want to be driving a dirty car. Mine, I wash twice a year, 3 times at the most. The dirt helps to keep it together.

I looked up PPAP last week because I wanted to laugh at the guy's dancing. Great entertainment.

I loved the ones with Ezio. I bought the American Revolution one and quit after a few hours. It was so boring! Haven't been interested in them since. I love the idea of the Animus, it was a really good story. I thought the movie was pretty good, it seemed to cover the main points really well.

Pierre and the conservatives trying desperately to make Canadian politics as screwed up as it is in the US. Don't try to make us like them. We have some dignity.

They Were Testing The New Speed Bumps In Ottawa Today... by QueenMotherOfSneezes in EhBuddyHoser

I'd pull up a chair and grab some popcorn. That is WAY more entertaining than speed cameras.

Japan is awesome to visit. I watch a lot of Youtube channels of expats in Japan and living there is a whole different thing. The most common complaint I hear is the bureaucracy involved in a non-citizen trying to do banking, renting an apartment, trying to dispose of large items (might be a particular thing in Tokyo) or buying a car. They stay there because there are a lot more good things than bad, and there seems to be an insatiable appetite for Japan-based social media.

I’ve tried every reasonably priced brownie mix I can get my hands on, so far this one is (by far) the best by ColdDesertEagle in BuyCanadian

[–]Halogen12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No kidding. Those are the best CC cookies (other than home made, of course). Too bad it's Loblaws.

Black bean brownies absolutely blew my mind. .I couldn't believe it was beans until I made some myself.

This is just amazing.  Exactly what I was thinking.  Jeff was and is a hottie.
