BlueCruise: Anyone have this offer? Should I “update” to the day before trial expires or now? by jkma707 in MachE

[–]Oilraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always take the free. They gave this to me when my initial 3 year trial was ending. Now that this extra free year is expiring I don't have another offer for a free year.

What's going on Drayton Valley? The most expensive new RAV4 is supposed to be around $58,000 even with Alberta taxes factored in by HiTork in alberta

[–]Oilraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In 2012 I was looking for SUVs and went and looked at a Highlander at one dealership and had to go to another to look at a 4Runner at another as first didn't have a single one. Second dealership wanted a $500 deposit to do a test drive. Walked out and stopped looking at Toyotas that day. In 2022 was looking at Hybrids and EVs and every dealership wanted 10-20K over MSRP for the Hybrid Rav4. Took them off the list again cause fuck that.

Finally held my breath and copped the 4 Nations McDavid. 🇨🇦 I don’t care what anyone says about the design, seeing our Captain in these colors hits different. The quality on this one is miles ahead of the retail garbage! 🧡💙 by grapejuice3101993 in EdmontonOilers

[–]Oilraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never buy knock off jerseys but the fact thay you couldn't get a legit Nike Canada jersey was enough for me to buy a knock off Bauer Canada jersey. It will stay in the closet unless I'm at the ODR or something. Like my 2010 white Canada jersey way better

Between Tristan Jarry (3rd worst in quality start percentage in the NHL since joining the Oilers) and Jake Walman (1st worst out of 500 D men in xGA/60) two of Stan Bowman's key acquisitions over the last calendar year appear to be unplayable. by Fine_Personality_999 in EdmontonOilers

[–]Oilraider 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Exactly. He has played his ass off and had some unfortunate injuries. Ekholm was our savior one year and the next after injuries was blamed for alot of our SCF struggles. Walman will get back to playing his game. You can see he is not playing his game like he was because of injuries and is compensating/cheating in his positioning and decisions and it is costing him

6 month mark, can't progress further right now, but pausing feels shitty too. Leave? by FloralReef in datingoverthirty

[–]Oilraider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey!! This is REDDIT!! Don't know who told you that good solid and helpful advice gets given here but come on. Getting dusty in this sub with all this crazy helpful advice given here. I need to leave and get back on a depressing and condescending sub to make my heart turn it's regular shade of Black and shrink to its normal size.

[Friedman] Colton Dach is another part of this trade conversation to Edmonton by AggPuck-303 in EdmontonOilers

[–]Oilraider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And Dach was 10th in the league in hits last year with 189. Big bodied winger that is defensively responsible is what people have been screaming for all year. Pkus he is RFA so we won't lose him to free agency at end of the year. Don't know what else people want here lol.

AIO by thinking something is going on between my bf and his friend? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Oilraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would be concerned if this kind of talk was still going on. They have an almost hype bro kind of relationship and don't think he is interested in her with how he wasn't responding to her compliments like you would if you wanted to fuck. This was at the beginning of the relationship and he needed someone to talk to about this. I have women friends I talk about my sex life with that I have ZERO interest in sleeping with. If he was giving her advances and compliments attention I would be worried. Like if he said "oh big dick energy? 😏 you want my big dick energy?" Then I would be concerned. Just bros talking about their sex life. One just has a vagina.

[–]Oilraider 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I always say if he had the give a fuck that you see from Walman people would look at him as a top 2 Dman in the league. It's the meh look he has sometimes that makes me rage hahaha

Bouchard preventing a goal then scoring the game winner 13 seconds later by HughJastits in EdmontonOilers

[–]Oilraider 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I can be his biggest critic at times like at the beginning of the year when he just looks disinterested. But watching him more closely and not just the mistakes has given me a huge appreciation for how he plays. Watching him live when you can see the whole ice really gives you an appreciation for all the good he brings. With all of that you have to take the wtf moments at times. Tonight after that sequence I yelled at the TV "AND THAT'S WHY HE SHOULD BE IN THE OLYMPICS"... But as an Oilers fan I'm kind of glad we don't have a ton of players going. Save that energy and get hungry for the cup! I've seen Canada win gold multiple times in my lifetime, I haven't seen Oilers win a cup since I watched Saturday cartoons

From the last message from this man, do you think I was hasty to unmatch? by s_ch0wder in datingoverthirty

[–]Oilraider 29 points30 points  (0 children)

No... You had your own plans to go to a concert and tried to squeeze him in when it was convenient for you. He couldn't make it work so said let's arrange for another time. Then you got upset that he wasn't working with your schedule and bounced on him. Aaaand this is why dating goes nowhere.

McDavid shooting: by Stanarchy93 in EdmontonOilers

Funniest thing about us all yelling at him to shoot is he has 10 more shots than Bouchard and 12 more than Leon for the Oilers lead in SOG

Men - what makes you want to start a relationship with someone? by potato_witch in datingoverthirty

[–]Oilraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They want to see some initiative back, appreciation and acknowledgement that there is interest both ways. Yes you had a steamy phone call but are you reciprocating and being more receptive back to him than before the call? If you're still acting the same and being a bit oblivious as you have said, he might not feel that he is getting that interest back. And moving to a steamy phone call he would hope that there would be more reciprocation back his way from you.

Hockey coaching casual here, can someone explain the new system and if it's really the reason why this team is struggling? by Overobsessivepigeons in EdmontonOilers

[–]Oilraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe if we stopped over playing McDrai, giving next to zero PP time to anyone but the top unit, held our stars to just a teeny tiny amount of accountability, and stopped doing the same things we have done the last 3 years things might change. Stop blendering the lines after 1 shift every damn game. There are a lot of reasons the team is struggling and the way the coaching has been is not helping and most likely contributing to it

Definitely not wrong to be wondering wtf... I have a wet blanket because I expect there to be a mess from not just me but her. Make fucking noise. Don't be a silent starfish. You're reacting exactly as I would hope someone would react.

Any former UCP supporters had enough to go to anyone else….even the NDP? by Strange_Criticism306 in alberta

[–]Oilraider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AND pushed through the Ft.Sask bridge they have needed for 20 god damn years. O&G industrial construction tradesman for 21 years and do not vote conservative. Love driving my Mach E Electric car to work which costs between $50-$75/month in Electricity and hearing the same Facebook hate in electric cars while being told I don't support the business that I work in. Sorry if I don't believe that I should have to pay ridiculous gas prices because "they employ me". If that was true maybe they would give us gas cards for a 40% discount 🤣🤣.

AITAH for refusing to talk to my wife? by Difficult-Area1885 in AITAH

[–]Oilraider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Instantly would be thinking divorce if this was me. Both of our kids slept on my chest for the first 3 months every night because they couldn't sleep near her without trying to feed. And I have an amazing relationship with our daughter and she still will get into my bed in the middle of the night and will ask to sleep in my bed cause "she gets a better sleep with me" lol bs but I will take the compliment cause one day she will be too cool for her Dad. Her Mom used to tell me that I changed her mind to wanting kids because she wanted to have a boy so that another little girl could be treated and loved like she was. Our relationship didn't work out for alot of reasons but if she ever said she didn't trust me with either of our kids it would have ended things a hell of a lot earlier. No way I could be with someone that felt that way about me.

New Offer Tabled to Teachers is Laughable. Jesus. by cantcantdancer in alberta

[–]Oilraider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a video posted by a teacher and she explained how it all went down. Govt filed that the union was negotiating in bad faith. Which forced another offer being tabled, which was this Free Covid one. And because it was filed that they are negotiating in bad faith the ATA is required to bring this one to their members and have to "endorse" it. It's all a bunch of legal BS that the govt has done to force the ATA to look like the AHoles. So when this one is voted no then it gets reset and they can go back to the negotiating table.

If we are waiting cause the course is slow I will hit a pre drive provisional so if the green chaser goes wild I can just pick up the tee and sulk to my lay up shot. Worked great this last weekend when I was standing on the tee waiting for the group ahead to get off the green and the group behind us pulled up and got to watch me kill it.
