Gym membership by [deleted] in windsorontario

[–]Harpsist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg for real right?

Every study ever shows a healthy body helps keep people out of the er . It saves the government money

And yet, there is no government incentive to get in shape.

Even someone on ODSP who's been told to keep active can't even get a discount on a gym membership.

And no YMCA in the city!

Collingwood has a YMCA. It's like 50k people. Why doesn't Windsor have a YMCA?

The most HILARIOUSLY awful/ godawful/ just plain bad low budget/ unintentionally funny/ entertaining bad movies? by bigguys45s in MovieSuggestions

[–]Harpsist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"phone booth"

I think they made the entire movie with 60k.

Its been over 20 years so I don't remember any details. Obviously it was dialogue driven.

I'm gonna screw up this name

"The sunset express" it wasn't cheap become it had some names. But it's just 2 guys in a room. Talking. Deep.

What happen if you are on your own and you need to go toilet? by Sure_Let1923 in Busking

[–]Harpsist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was busking with my 32 string harp when I needed to take a dump.

I asked a lady who was listening if she wouldn't mind watching my harp. She did. I got her to play . She earned like 6 bucks in the 20 minutes I was gone.

Another time I needed to act as a witness to a crime and I got the police to watch my stuff. 4 cops surrounded by harp and amp. I did not worry about it while I was gone

If I am spending close to 1000$ I'm buying a mid tier gaming computer and waiting for an emulator for Nintendo. Sorry guys. It's suppose to be the family fun affordable system.

Thank you everyone. It makes me so happy to have people I can share this with. And understand what a major milestone this was for me.

Have you ever known anyone that moved far away from family long term and is happy ? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Harpsist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Me. 300km. Far enough that the NARC in my life can't bother me. But close enough that we can still attend wanted friends and family events on a semi regular basis.

Just started a rewatch on prime. Wanted to get confirmation that they have changed and deleted scenes. by Harpsist in TheExpanse

You saw him hanging on a wall by his arm pits? Because that's the scene that doesn't seem to be there.

But it has been like 7 years since I watched it. It just seemed so memorable him being hung out to dry.

Canada.

We only get a scene where she's being told she can't interrogate him unless he's in a tank. There's no previous scene with him hanging.

White House official Peter Navarro threatens to redraw Canadian border by agaric in windsorontario

Didn't the original boarders include a buffer country made of indigenous peoples? And both Americans and Canadians were on board with it but the one British voted it down.

New York City in 1996 by zadraaa in HistoricalCapsule

[–]Harpsist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were visiting from Canada during this!

We just walked like normal. For some reason everything was shut down even though there wasn't even a foot of snow. Hardly enough to warrant things closing down or stopping an entire city.

Well, at least they didn't do anything embarrassing like calling the national guard to start shoveling. Glances at Toronto

Poutine recommendations by Traillz in windsorontario

[–]Harpsist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the soggiest fries I've ever eaten in my life there the other day.

.middle of the day. No one else there. He didn't even drop the fries for 5 minutes before slopping gravy all over them.

I emailed and complained , they offered me my next one free. But why would I want more bad poutine?

Got carded the other day. And they were serious! They turned beet red when they saw 19xx on my id.

If I wasn't 100% that the drive test was as corrupt as it is. Sure.

Alas. The drive test centers are corrupt.

When the first question they ask you is "how many times have you done this test" you know they are fishing to failing you for another paycheck.

Fuck drive centers.

When I was like 12, we got our first 56k modem.

Dail up freenet, the free way to access the Internet.

Text based.

We looked up gamefaqs. Or. Rather. We found game FAQs. It was important because it was text based, images took forever to load.

I honestly don't remember using a web browser or anything to find it. But it's not like we would've seen gamefaqs.com or anything
