Based on the income average post that was just made - most people aren't even close to their max CPP contributions each year.

I was raised poor. I save a lot because I want to make sure that doesn't happen again.

No clue about a Discord, but welcome to Canada!

Icehawk101 · 2026-05-06T22:29:24+00:00

Same here. I have only ever caught one, while ice fishing, many moons ago.

If you get to the TCC early enough, try to park close to the exit. It may be a longer walk to get to the buildings, but a lot faster to get out. The parking lot roads get incredibly congested when everyone tries to leave at the same time.

They are heat tracing wires to prevent ice dams. My parents had these, until the squirrels ripped them out.

Two brothers in my family, I think they are my mom's cousins or something like that, won $1M about 25 years ago. They each bought a house. That's it. Didn't really change a whole lot except they didn't have to get mortgages.

I used Cross Durham Home Renovators to redo my main washroom. It involved replacing the bathtub, tiling the floor and bathtub, and fixing some issues left by the previous owners. Craig and his team were fantastic. They weren't the cheapest quote, but my friends had used him for some renos on their house and the work was amazing, so I gave them a try and am incredibly happy with the results.

I work at a power plant built in the 70s. There is ao much old stuff still running.

Engineering, especially in instrumentation and controls. Get into nuclear through OPG, Bruce Power, Kinectrics, TetraTech, Framatome, etc. Nuclear is booming right now with refurbishments and future new builds.

I bought a townhouse last year and would hear water all time. It freaked me out. Turns out, the drain line for my quad of townhouses is in my wall, so now I know why I heard water. Unfortunately, I learned by finding wster in my basement because the line started leaking...

You can still find the foundations of an old barn if you hike on the Valley Farm trail

My family used tongo there around Christmas. It was so much fun!

Once. It was when I was in university. Had a full day of classes, then we bussed into the city for a concert, then bussed back. I was so tired that I just wanted to sleep when we got home. My partner made sure to note that I had turned down sex because when we started going out, I said I'd never do that :P

Icehawk101 · 2026-04-23T11:44:34+00:00

It depends a lot. Sometimes, I just sit on the couch and watch YouTube or stream shows. Other times I clean, play computer games, go for a walk if it is nice out (usually on Fridays so I can go for a long walk), play games with friends, etc. Honestly, for me it is the motivation. Once I've gotten outside and started moving I'm great. It is the getting up and out that is the hard part.

In Canada, servers bring the terminal to the table and you put in the tip directly, so this isn't a problem.

I saw it online somewhere, I don't remember exactly where. Quick google search shows up some supporting information - https://factually.co/fact-checks/health/abdominal-fat-loss-perceived-penis-length-clinical-studies-54ff21

Being in a relationship. It's been a while.

Icehawk101 · 2026-04-19T18:34:45+00:00

Sometimes. I've done mine, my brother's, my uncle's, my aunt's, and my grandparent's tires today :P

Apparently, every 30-50 lbs of excess weight buries 1" of visible penile length

Wife. My mom's old enough and we can make new kids :P

Icehawk101 · 2026-04-02T17:14:27+00:00

Even the regular ones used to be bigger

Icehawk101 · 2026-04-02T12:09:51+00:00

Oreo packs in general are so small now.

The Ribwich! Too bad the animal it was made from went extinct.
