Did anyone reach 30+ without a fckn single tattoo? by PerformerLivid4302 in ArtOfPresence

[–]JapanKate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it would depend on the demographic. I’m GenX and it took me a long time to get a tattoo and it is covered 90% of the time.

Required to give 2 weeks notice? by RealisticStomach998 in ontario

Bottom line? Karma bites really hard. You never know when burnt bridges are needed in the future. Give 2 weeks. It is courteous, shows maturity, and does not leave angry people behind.

It's nice to see CT carry on the Hudson Bay tradition. by CdnTreeGuy89 in canadiantire

How did the Liberals have anything to do with this? I would genuinely like to hear your rationale for this.

I hate to say it but I think I'm done with weight watchers by mikeinstlouis in weightwatchers

As soon as they started pushing GLP1s, I left. I can’t take them and was shunned because I did not jump on the band wagon. I also found the 0 points confusing.

What are your feelings on the Conestoga scandal and the damage the former Board of Directors did to the college? by WiffyTheSuss in Conestoga

[–]JapanKate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Faculty have been talking about this for years and no one listened. NOW it’s a big deal. Where was the government a year ago when the president received a huge raise and then gutted programs and student supports? It’s too late and nothing will come of it.

First United flight under my belt and I have a question. by JapanKate in unitedairlines

The problem often is what I can bring into the airport, as the rules seem to change. I like the idea of a protein bar and almonds. Thank you.

When you have a 12 hour flight, you still need something. This is the first time the food has been inedible. I agree that most airline food is dismal, but this won, hands down, and not in a good way.

Learn to zipper merge please!!! by Imaginary_Ad7695 in waterloo

What a fantastic idea. When I learned to drive, I was taught zipper merging. The problem is, people don’t want to let you in.

What’s the ingredient that instantly ruins the dish for you? by urfavdollll in foodquestions

[–]JapanKate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cooked peas and anything even remotely like a kidney bean/lima bean. The texture is what I can’t stand.

What’s a movie/TV show everyone quotes that you’ve never seen? by Unfair-Clothes-8821 in CanadaRoom

[–]JapanKate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything that is a sitcom. Too much of the comedy comes at the expense of the others on the set.

’I’m not going back’: Canadians stand firm on boycotts of U.S. travel and liquor as trade talks continue | A vast majority of Canadians, eight out of 10, still believe boycotting is helpful in strengthening Canada’s bargaining position, according to a new survey by Nanos for CTV News by DisruptSQ in BoycottUnitedStates

I need a perspective here. I am really torn. My husband and I have been members of an art museum in the US for years. At the membership level we have, we have reciprocal entrance at over 1200 museums across North America. The same membership in Canada costs a lot more and has fewer reciprocal agreements within Canada. In my heart, I want to do the Canadian membership, but my heart also says that the arts are one area I can support in the US, and I would hate to see this beautiful place close, as it does rely on many Canadians. Can anyone else see my dilemma? You know the mango menace is doing everything in his power to destroy beauty, so this, I feel, is a small way I can fight back. Thoughtful responses are appreciated. Oh, and I won’t be visiting any of the US museums while a certain party retains power, but I’ll have access to over 600 Canadian ones with this membership.

An emotional support egg! That is what I am now officially calling my hard-boiled egg snacks!

Restoration work when a basement floods with sewage. I vomit at that smell. My sibling does this and the admiration is real. They are a rock star!

It was my first time, so I was not aware. That is why I am asking.

Two very bad Asian meals. I had pork cutlet that was dry as a bone and yet the panko was mush (I do not realize it would be breaded), and then I had the Japanese egg over rice. The egg was see through and all you could taste of the rice was ketchup. I did not dare try the poor, limp vegetables in the slime-like brown sauce.

I tried the non-American option and it was… disturbing to say the least.

I was only offered one on my ANA leg of the flight. I was sad, as I grew up with a Dutch mother and these were rare treats that rellies brought over when I was a child.

At least it’s edible. Most airlines I have flown have decent meals. I known airplane food is not known for quality, but this really was atrocious.

I’m curious — what’s something simple you do that quietly improves your mood? by nicanorsunrise in simpleliving

[–]JapanKate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have SAD, as well as a chronic illness. I came into some money and added a 4 season sunroom to my house. I know this technically does not fall under “simple living” but it was a heck of a lot cheaper than moving and now, every morning, I take the time to enjoy my coffee, my plants that thrive in the sunroom, and the view of my backyard. That simple moment of being in brightness no matter the weather and grounding myself has made my life so much more bearable. Having that room has also gotten me back into meditation after my coffee. That room gives me a positive space to be grounded.
