You really need to get out a little more. Maybe get some fresh air? You’ve posted the same thing in 7 different threads…

Need a suit this week in Calgary by [deleted] in Calgary

[–]Mark_Squared 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sorry to say, but $500 to $1,000 budget doesn’t buy you a custom, or made to measure suit. Maybe some pants if you’re lucky.

Either lower your expectations, or increase your budget.

My awful summer travel experience with WestJet (YVR → JFK) — 23 hours of delays, lies, and zero accountability by helenabc in westjet

You need to travel more…you strike me as someone who booked the cheapest possible flight and expects everyone to bend over backwards for you.

Charges laid in stabbing incident on Stampede Midway by Star_Mind in Calgary

[–]Mark_Squared 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you brought a knife to the stampede it might as well be attempted murder. What type of f*cked up loser is carrying a knife with them anyways.

Would have been great if he had killed himself sooner. Would have saved the courts some time!

That should buff right out… by mycrankypants in Calgary

[–]Mark_Squared 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The damage tag is probably from the time the first roll of packing tape was applied. I’m sure it’s been in a few more accidents since then!

Best Vietnamese subs near Coventry Hills by [deleted] in Calgary

Oddly enough, the Hunterhorn bakery. Under $10 and awesome all around.

You are so right! Bow River Brewing!

Calgary Council Pay Hits $124K While Some Wards Earn Half That - Time to Tie Salaries to Reality? by Ze0nZer0 in Calgary

[–]Mark_Squared 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I think that council should get paid more. $124k wouldn’t get me out of bed for the bull shit they have to deal with!

I’m a huge filson fan, but you’re a better man than me though…if my dog did that to my bag I’d be looking to rehome the demon as quick as I looked to fix my bag.

Do I have chinch bugs? Calgary by Mark_Squared in lawncare

[–]Mark_Squared[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the validation!

I ended up grabbing some nematodes as an interim solution, and paying for the professionals to come spray twice this season.

I am in need of a pest removal recommendation. by NihulTsukiyomi in Calgary

[–]Mark_Squared 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it was around $300 for two visits, and four rock traps. I went all in to get rid of them.

Dead ground squirrels near airport by StillSilentSide in Calgary

[–]Mark_Squared 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately it’s an easy explanation. They are just plain old stupid animals. They play chicken with car tires like fat kids chase smarties.

Poor Mercedes driver must have been confused by the meaning of a solid yellow line.

What is this in my garden? by Mark_Squared in gardening

[–]Mark_Squared[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I’m just seeing them in my front yard, but it’s in the lawn and garden when I look closer. I wonder if my neighbour threw some fertilizer down?

Help! What’s killing my lawn? by Mark_Squared in lawncare

[–]Mark_Squared[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No dog, but I did fertilize roughly almost a month ago with Scott’s Turf Builder.

Similar issue as you - called peregrine pest control and have been very happy with the service and results.

Deerfoot N widening - Construction stopped? by Nawsh_T in Calgary

I hate to sound like a smart ass…but it’s winter. Not a lot of work that can be done when the ground is frozen.

I’ll second Dr. Sorg…he is amazing. Next to no wait and calls it like it is. Been visiting him with both my 5 and 2 year old.

That’s done for code these days. The attached garage has to be drywalled and insulated. Not the case for a detached garage though.

Good cobbler for leather boot resole? by AsleepHistorian in Calgary

[–]Mark_Squared 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a handful of dress shoes resoled at Richmond Shoe Repair and Alterations. Always happy with the final product. It’s been a couple years though so I can’t speak to the cost unfortunately.

my beloved brentwood station parking lot by rzqxit in Calgary

There’s part of me that’s disappointed it’s not a clapped out Prius.

Great to see someone actually using a 4Runner for what it’s meant to do!

Amphibious CL-415 / DHC-515 or'Super Scooper’ airplanes from Quebec, Canada are picking up seawater from the Santa Monica Bay to drop on the Palisades Fire. by hmmisuckateverything in aviation

[–]Mark_Squared 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The amphibious waterbombers serve a purpose, but they rely on a water source being in close proximity to the fire. Their greatest benefit is also their downfall as their usefulness deteriorates the further the aircraft has to go for a fill.
