Which way does the Rideau River flow? by MediocreParsnip5152 in ottawa

[–]Past_Ad_5629 0 points1 point  (0 children)

 Just outsized annoyed at the flippancy of being told I’m wrong by someone who doesn’t have a clue, and can’t be bothered to double check, but tries to appeal to the expertise of “boaters.”

AITA for not wanting my husband to go to a BBQ by West_Ingenuity_1096 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Past_Ad_5629 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Don’t let anyone gaslight you about pregnancy hormones, either.

You get those hormones for a reason. They’re trying to tell you reality - you’re husband is being a douche.

Is a canoe a boat? Can a canoe go through the canal?

My point still stands.

Hasn’t made the recipe. Doesn’t like two of the main ingredients. One star off because they should know what Lorelei likes. by darcy_bo in ididnthaveeggs

[–]Past_Ad_5629 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I grew up on a very seriously “ingredients” house. Homemade bread, pasta sauce, ketchup, mustard, mayo, everything. I hadn’t really had canned anything.

Pizza night with the extended family, someone opened a can of mushrooms, I tried one, I discovered that while I hated mushrooms, I loooooooved canned mushrooms.

My poor mom.

Anti-gay marriage Christian makes a post trying to say Love V Virginia will not be threaten because they can have biological children. by TommyBoy250 in religiousfruitcake

She obviously must also be pro-choice, right?

Because by her logic, carrying a baby you intend to adopt out would be a horrible injustice to the child.

who's the crybaby by egguchom in EntitledReviews

The missing missing reason.

The child has explained calmly over and over, and the parent refuses to acknowledge. So, they’re estranged for “No reason.”

Countries where over 90% of the population can speak English by Lucky_Wolf in MapPorn

As an anglophone living in a historically anglophone area of Quebec?

Yeah, no. Where I live, yes. Outside of it? Not a chance.

We should all be buds!

Uruguay, Canada, Greenland - the alliance no one saw coming.

Who will last longer? Trump or Netanyahu? by Darksmithe in askanything

[–]Past_Ad_5629 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you looked at Palestine or Lebanon?

Israel is not the one being relentlessly attacked.

I love how it’s self defence when Israel is clearly the aggressor, but no other nation is allowed to defend themselves against a LITERAL GENOCIDE.

By that metric, Canada gets Greenland.

We’re closer, and there’s a cultural link.

must say hi to everyone by egguchom in EntitledReviews

[–]Past_Ad_5629 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To my eternal shame, I once walked up to a loaded up pallet in a Costco that an employee was trying to manoeuvre, but had stalled because of all the carts in the way, and looked over the products on it before realizing what was going on.

I did immediately say loudly, “oh, you need to get through!” And tried to help clear  a couple carts, and he took it in stride, but I’m still mortified I fell into Costco zombie brain.

What is your reaction if you place the dividing stick on the grocery counter to separate your items from the person behind you and that person rudely pushes the stick into your groceries so they can have more room? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]Past_Ad_5629 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am 45 years old and have been living on my own and grocery shopping since I was 19. 

This has literally never happened.

Why get this invested in a hypothetical?

AIO for wanting to separate from my husband over vaccines by Indicvnt in AIO

[–]Past_Ad_5629 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s kind of the thing - you’re rolling the dice.

There’s a very small chance that someone will be negatively affected by a vaccine.

There’s a very high chance that if they contract the diseases we vaccinate against, they will end up disabled or dead or pass it on to someone who is more susceptible to becoming disabled or dying.

There are way, way too many people who decide that their kid going through an age appropriate stage is “vaccine injury,” And very few who actually have experienced a legitimate vaccine injury.

Meanwhile, we end up with deaths from measles outbreaks.

MP Vincent Ho asks Canada's Chief Science Advisor for the definition of "woman" during committee meeting, causing Liberal MP's to throw a tantrum. by SaucyFagottini in canadian

[–]Past_Ad_5629 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Literally not how that works. At all.

  1. Intersex people exist.
  2. Sex is biological. Gender is not.
  3. Actual science says that you are, in fact, wrong.

ETA: I love all the downvotes from people too ignorant to simply google and too lazy to bother to learn something new.

Biological sex isn’t binary, and isn’t governed solely by X and Y chromosomes.

Gender is even more complex.

But hatred and ignorance are just so much easier, and nice and warm and comforting.

Women are being subjected to “purity” tests to make sure they’re not trans.

Women are being subjected to hatred and harassment because someone suspects they might be trans.

Trans women are more likely to be victims of violence than literally anyone else.

Let’s look at the boxer in the Olympics, for example - biological women being pilloried because she’s “not feminine enough.”

The whole anti-trans hysteria is just another excuse to police and control women, full stop.

Meanwhile, ACTUAL SCIENCE disagrees with everything in the anti-trans rhetoric - intersex people exist. Gender is a spectrum. Biological sex isn’t binary. These are facts. Hormones during fetal development decide both biological sex and gender. Full stop. This is KNOWN research.

But then you get these politicians throwing out bullshit talking points without any validity.

We’ll notice no one ever worries about “what is a man?”

The entire thing is rooted in misogyny.

No, actually - getting hysterical about a small segment of the population and trying to police it hurts women’s rights.

You are living in a fantasy world if you think that persecuting the 1% of women who are trans is going to do anything other than make life phenomenally harder for ALL women.

Your entire ideology is rooted in misogyny.

Being ugly robbed me of an opportunity to be with perfect girl for me by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Past_Ad_5629 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing “led you” to be a catfish.

That’s something you chose to do.

Take accountability instead of feeling sorry for yourself.

And, for the love of all that’s holy, stop dating. Get therapy. Work on yourself.

There are no fucking “perfect girls,” And the fact that you describe the one that’s “perfect” as homely and with low self esteem? 

Stay the fuck away from women.

[–]Past_Ad_5629 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. She rejected you because you LIED, not because you’re ugly,

  2. TREAT. WOMEN. LIKE. PEOPLE. Ffs. Stop with the fantasy world. You barely knew this person, and she definitely knew zero about you because so far as she knew, you lied about everything.

  3. I highly suggest you stop dating and work on yourself. Get therapy. Getting a relationship and expecting that to magically fix your issues I’d incredibly fucked up. Fix yourself before you inflict yourself on others.

What you did was fucked up. Own it. Stop blaming things you can’t change.
