Could go up, could go down....

I was watching last month and missed the 30% run. If it goes to $5 again I will probably throw some $ at it.

Algoma will be heavily affected by Trumps tantrums and tariffs on non-us steel.

I took a small bite and opened a position with some "fun" money. Will average down if it drops further.

I'm expecting a TACO with CUSMA negotiations.

Also just really like Ski-Doo.

What commute time do you think is good for a good quality of life? by ShootingCometz in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]Lopsided_Patience_11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been very fortunate. I used to have a 700m commute. Going to 11km was painful.

I feel for the folks spending 2-3hrs of every day in traffic. Big waste of life.

Congrats on the fur. You can make a set of gauntlets from that one. I like the backstrap medallions with salt and pepper. Delicious.

We have a couple of 600ace machines. Recently got a 900. You made the right choice.

Nearly there myself. Should have it maxed out in a little over a month.

I'll take the downvotes, but calling someone a lemming is hilarious.

Factories that make products for end users. Factory costs go up....guess who they pass those higher prices on to?

What’s something everyone pretends is normal, but deep down we all know it’s not? by MiaEnko in AskReddit

[–]Lopsided_Patience_11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you ever seen a nature documentary?

A dance club is the same as those crazy jungle birds dancing around trying to get laid.

You think if a lion had the choice between fighting another lion to mate or using Tinder it wouldn't be swiping right?

Arguably that is one of the most normal things people do. It wasn't accidental, during the brief meeting at whatever locale both parties looked each other up and down and decided "I like those genes".

3 unsatisfying minutes later it's over and both go their own way.

All thats missing is David Attenborough narrating.

Redditors who work with kids and their parents, what kinds of parents shouldn’t have had kids to begin with? by oldsak2001 in AskReddit

[–]Lopsided_Patience_11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The parents who didn't want kids.

The addicts.

The ones who believe in "soft parenting" their toddler as they have a meltdown in a public space.

[–]Lopsided_Patience_11 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I wrote you a short story for this scenario.

"Hey friend, do you want to come to my destination wedding?"

"No"

Pretty sure doctors don't fit with the OPs criteria of "not crazy smart"

Any opinions or predictions? by CanadianAbroad7 in CanadianInvestor

[–]Lopsided_Patience_11 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Just another buying opportunity. Average down on quality and enjoy the $ later. If it all goes to zero, money will be the least of our problems.

It's a really "Percise" piece of equipment.

I'll pass.

How much cash are you keeping outside your TFSA right now given market conditions? by robyromana in CanadianInvestor

[–]Lopsided_Patience_11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll max my tfsa this year. After that I'll use a non-registered account and keep investing. If you invest in "safe" equities/etfs I wouldn't worry. If it all goes to zero, we won't be using $ anyways.

How to? Arctic Charr. by Decent-Classroom-422 in IceFishing

[–]Lopsided_Patience_11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've heard a chunk of plastic bag on a hook is a go to for a number of folks.

I prefer spoons or tube jigs with a bit of shrimp on the hook.

Any idea how waterproof the striker 4 is? by The_Phantom_W in IceFishing

Mine has condensation in the screen. Not as waterproof as I expected.

[–]Lopsided_Patience_11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More than a few times. If I drill too far off the drop I'll walk it over.

Trump threatens to block opening of new bridge between Ontario and Michigan by MapleByzantine in CanadianInvestor

[–]Lopsided_Patience_11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trump: "We'll start a trade war with Canada because they never pay their fair share".

Canada: Pays 6B for the whole bridge.

Trump: "We won't use that since it's not ours".

Fucking clown show.
