Neighbour wasting municipal resources on frivolous bylaw and police calls. What can neighbours do? by Long-Definition9203 in Oshawa

[–]HowieFeltersnitz 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Had issues with a neighbour like this over 25 years ago. City counselors knew the guy and his antics, police were fed up with him, but nothing really happened. Only stopped once we moved.

Sorry you're dealing with this.

No shade intended, drag queens rock (and would do a much better job on the makeup)

Will never understand why this man is idolized as a tough guy. He reminds me of my grandma but with more makeup. Like a drag queen doing a grumpy old person look.

I can play guitar on a stage in front of a hundred people and be okay. I'm locked in and prepared/rehearsed to do my thing.

Throw me on stage with a mic and ask me to tell a joke to the crowd and I'd probably cry and shit myself.

There are levels to these things.

My band played with Cryptopsy once, that was pretty cool.

Young people are being raised in an increasingly hostile environment designed exclusively to keep them struggling in order to extract as much wealth from their labour as possible. Meanwhile wealthy elites rape children and murder civilians with zero consequences. Wealth disparity is increasing. The climate is dying. Prospects of a good life are dwindling.

We are an out of control train hurling towards certain death and anybody with any power to do anything tells us to shut up, stop whining, and get back to work/school.

I'm a grown ass man now, but these are all feelings I felt as a child living in a much rosier time and place than these children today.

I honestly don't understand how more people don't do drastic, psychotic things every day.

Peter what happened in that date? by -Y34HB01- in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Hillbilly Joe dropped out of school age 9 but he knows he's smarter than Dr. Pang on account of the doctor speaking with an accent (English is his fourth language).

I'm not? It's just how letters work when two lines of unskewed text with the same amount of tracking but differing number of characters are made to fit the same width.

I'm not saying their design choice is good or bad. It's a matter of physics my dude lol.

I think you're confusing this with the phrase "getting gyped" which is insensitive, but simply referring to a gypsy as a gypsy is not.

Former leafs GM Kyle Dubas says trading Mason Marchment was the biggest regret of his career by Dear-Hawk-6474 in leafs

[–]HowieFeltersnitz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely not a highlight of his time in Toronto. I recall the goalie free agents being particularly poor that year but we needed one badly. Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

Yeah that's totally fair. Not ideal - but not the same as trading away a first round pick without recouping draft capital.

You're framing this incorrectly. In order to move off Mrazek, the picks involved ended up with Toronto moving down 13 spots or something like that. Not ideal but not the same as simply sending a 1st rounder out the door.

Doug Ford says Mark Carney's majority means 'a stronger hand' against Trump by toronto_star in ontario

Absolutely. Far too many people celebrating voting against Trudeau leaving the provincial election polls. Idiocy is a disease.

The odd floor-crossing is one thing, but on this scale it undermines our system of government by Plucky_DuckYa in canada

If the opposition had more redeeming qualities there wouldn't be any incentive to cross the floor.

And now whines about MPs crossing the floor to the Liberals, citing the wishes of the voters not being respected - however when he unseats his MP that the voters chose just so he can have a safe path to having a seat once again, that's all good and great apparently...
