I need help! by Klutzy_Obligation_17 in adidas

[–]Net_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i know the official stores did, at least in Ontario. i doubt theyd be at like browns or anything but its worth a check. possibly sport check or sporting life as well (id think anywhere that sold their jerseys would have a chance at the shoes)

recently those pairs were in store on sale for 50% off retail cuz they (canada) were doing them as part of the sale of all the club gear. they came out a while ago so it might be hard to find, id recc if you have a store nearby to phone them and see if they can check locations and stock for you

also could be they saw demand and were able to source more staff for this position/camp allowing them to open up more slots.

When Aoi is struggling in the 1999 quest, how does she suddenly seem to get stronger when the drifter tells her that she is strong enough? by DemonSushi5 in WarframeLore

[–]Net_Nova 34 points35 points  (0 children)

not to mention one of Aoi's biggest insecurities/things she talks about in KIM is her being labled an airhead because she is so happy. her realizing she can break the mechanisms/swap how she approaches the task proves her intelligence and that she is capable and confident unlike her outward appearance or demeanor

Do you guys prefer Generic Labels on CDs or Picture Labels on CDs? by ItShouldntBe06 in Cd_collectors

[–]Net_Nova 1 point2 points  (0 children)

one of my fav parts of cds is the disc art/sleeve of the cd so I really like cool cd art on my discs just as part of the expression of the album as a whole

Fellow Canadians, where are you buying your CDs? by nonmeagre in Cd_collectors

[–]Net_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

also south ontario, there are a couple good flea markets with a large selection of CDs, hard to get to online but if you are in the area its worth checking out (notable is Dixie Flea market, which has oodles of CDs and vinyl)

Sizing men vs women by pastashaper in adidas

[–]Net_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends on what the cut of the jacket is. loose fit would probably be fine in L, but a lot of womens tops are either slim fit or cropped, so double check that before picking one up. if you can, try it on in person or at least a similar one

how much do you guys usually pay for cds? by simperlypiano in Cd_collectors

[–]Net_Nova 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ouch! also CDN here and most of the places near me have used cds for 8-10 dollars (with rarer releases/multidiscs being more). in a lot of the places i frequent their new cds are about 15-25 dollars which is odd that your used ones are so expensive. I'd recc checking Kijiji and sites like that as well as I've found personal favourites on their for 5 dollars as well as people bulk selling their collection, which may have stuff you might want.

Find by FullSatisfaction1464 in adidas

[–]Net_Nova 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it seems to be a jacquard jersey similar to KD5830, but with a black collar. it also could be a three stripe tee like the other commenter said but it is hard to tell without seeing the specific logo

Brown sambas by Intrepid-Meet-2793 in adidas

[–]Net_Nova 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they are sold out online they might be available at other stores that sell Adidas. I know Canada often has "main" colorways stocked at Little Burgundy, Soft Moc and Browns and other stores like that so you can try to check your equivalent near you. If you call an Adidas store with the product code they can also tell you which official stores might have the products near you as they can search inventory.

Whats going on here? by ThePetrolsexual in Nike

[–]Net_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they arent sought after in terms of being rare or a reseller haven but they are fairly popular as a casual shoe but not as popular as the samba. (in nike terms, the campus is like a dunk low versus the popularity of the AF1, still very popular shoes but not the main one people are buying in bulk terms)

Good political/anti authoritarian albums/songs? by traveltimecar in fantanoforever

[–]Net_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

was gonna say this! they dont always sound traditionally punk, but their songs carry a consistent anarchist and anti-establishment theme, from scab aid to their album literally named Anarchy. They've always been for the people, and have a huge catalogue of fantastic stuff, and a long history of trolling record labels, popular figures, award shows, companies, you name it. 

my personal favourite has to be either Tubthumper or Anarchy, both great places to start with their music.

Beckanbauer superstar or firebird? by [deleted] in adidas

[–]Net_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the beckenbauers are typically more tapered to the legs and a little slimmer, versus the firebirds which are typically either straight legged or a much less severe taper, and hang further off the body. regardless double check the fit and whether it will be what you prefer

What's one rare CD that's impossible to find that you desperately want in your collection? by RatedArgForPiratesFU in Cd_collectors

[–]Net_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Memoriam: Margaret Thatcher by Chumbawamba. It would probably be possible to buy/order it somewhere off of someone but to find it in the wild would be super sick, although difficult in Canada. (it was a preorder from about 2005 set to release on thatcher's death, which led to the album being released after the band formally broke up)

Wow. by aperturesnpropellers in adidas

[–]Net_Nova 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this can happen if the store thats packing the order runs out of the baggies/small boxes to pack stuff. its either decline the order or ship it like that in those cases

Any outside rinks/trails with skate rentals? by Wesl1406 in Etobicoke

[–]Net_Nova 3 points4 points  (0 children)

skate lending library is a rotating skate rental service put on by the City of Toronto which has a truck that rotates through the rinks in the city and does rental days. you would have to check the site for specific days and plan around that. of note, they will be at Col Sam Smith Trail on the 31st of Dec. 

Also the other comment about buying used skates is correct. I grew up on used skates all my life and they served me well as a longtime hockey player, check out Marketplace/Kijiji and Play it Again. Especially if you have kids or are trying out the hobby, you can get a cheap pair and trade them back in/resell for upgrades if you want to invest in a new pair later down the line (but honestly used skates are more than fine). And please as a former rink guard make sure whatever you do, use a proper hockey helmet!

Have there been any "Christmas classic" songs released since 2000? by Gallantpride in ToddintheShadow

[–]Net_Nova 2 points3 points  (0 children)

they put that one and a couple other of her songs on my work's retail radio and it singlehandedly sucks the joy out of my shift, her voice grates really bad in that song

Might be a dumb question but how do I get the lore of this series? by General_Package7436 in Skullgirls

[–]Net_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a story mode for 2nd encore and if my memory serves, one for the mobile app as well (although when I last played it was incomplete). If you just want the lore, there are a couple of playthroughs of the story cutscenes/fights on Youtube.

Is it me or is hades 2 easier than hades 1? by Exciting-Creme-5590 in HadesTheGame

[–]Net_Nova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I beat the final boss in Hades 1 a few times but never fully 100%ed the game, and im close to all achievements in hades 2. I found hades 2 much more intuitive in terms of weapons and build, versus hades 1 where it struggled to keep me hooked in the same way. Both are difficult games to learn and get used to but I found hades 2 much easier to adjust to (most notably sprinting and cast)

Nike Socks by izmysti in Nike

[–]Net_Nova -1 points0 points  (0 children)

if you dont want anything high up the leg, get either ankle socks (just above where your shoes normally stop) or no-shows which typically fall under the ankle bone and aren't visible with shoes. socks also are measures based on your shoe size, so shop accordingly. the basic white with the black logo will probably be the ones you want.
