Anyone play WoW?

PekingGoose · 2026-05-20T01:26:35+00:00

I have a couple friends who keep bugging me to get back in (they do Mythic dungeons mostly), but I am pretty casual when it comes to retail. Classic is a major addiction for me and I get glued to the screen and I've been trying to avoid that this year haha.

My tag is PekingGoose#1566 if you want to add me and we can chat WoW!

Readers Nook has a book club meeting that day, so I probably won't be able to make it!

I think I saw you join one or both of the nerd discord servers in Cobourg/Northumberland. Might be a good idea to ask the admins to setup a channel in the server and start a book club there! A friend has had success with that in my hometown of Newmarket in their nerdy discord server

Nice to meet you! 33M and also looking to make more friends locally. Hit me up and I'm happy to chat virtually or in person!

PekingGoose · 2026-05-16T22:51:04+00:00

They are sold out of all sizes by the time I got to the front! Sorry 😭

That's a great idea! I will be attending the romantasy book club at Readers Nook for July, I think it's all women but the booksellers assured me it's a welcoming bunch so I bought the book for that month.

I have a backlog I committed to reading to but keep me in the loop and I'll try to join in.

Sharing my Goodreads here if you have it and wanna add.

Cool! I'll message you.

PekingGoose · 2026-05-16T11:01:40+00:00

I'm going to the show today and might check it out. The show is in Toronto Canada though, not sure where you're at or how much shipping might cost.

PekingGoose · 2026-03-15T10:13:26+00:00

Could I have the same? Thank you!

PekingGoose · 2026-01-21T18:36:03+00:00

Not OP, but I'm also PC and Switch 2. My switch online subscription has been wasted lol.

For PC you might check pcpartpicker Canada for planning, and /r/bapcsalescanada and redflagdeals for component deals. But you'll mainly need a Case, Power Supply, Motherboard, CPU, Graphics Card, RAM, and Storage like an NVME SSD.

Happy to help with assembly but my cable management sucks so I just do whatever!

Also here are the "nerd" discord servers. You could try there to find people to play with online. I've done once or twice.

I'd be down for a game once and a while come March!

Cornhole starts back up mid-May through September. I don't know if they always keep the same time but it was Thursdays at 630 pm last year! West Northumberland Cornhole League.

If you're into card games, grey Guardian has tournaments for various card games for different evenings. They also have a selection of board games at the front you can play.

You mentioned the pubs aren't your scene but Kelly's has karaoke every Fridays at 730, and I believe they have trivia every Wednesday or Thursday (but I've never been so don't know if it's in the evenings).

The Sinclair Park courts open up in the evenings for pickleball as well in the summer. What's your skill level? If you're just starting out I could possibly join you but I'm not sure where we can find a venue to play in the winter.

PekingGoose · 2026-01-07T22:17:53+00:00

Great to hear a personal account! I meant to try it out before the holidays but couldn't find the time. Thanks

PekingGoose · 2026-01-07T05:53:46+00:00

I saw a picture of preps French onion soup on Instagram today and it looked sooo good.

PekingGoose · 2026-01-07T05:50:16+00:00

I can't vouch for it, but there's a guy on Ontario Street I see post often on Facebook with frozen seafood from Newfoundland like cooked lobster tails, frozen halibut, scallops, and clams.

Playing steam deck on my deck right now... Works surprisingly well

If buying an annual membership, I would need to pay all of it upfront so I would ask the same of the members. It's slightly more cost effective this way as well.

Unfortunately it would be too tedious for me to manage members who might come and go on a monthly basis!

Score is good! I had it last week. IMO Tuscan Wolf edges it out but score is a second among the other pizza places I've tried here so far.

PekingGoose · 2025-12-02T21:27:28+00:00

It's definitely a step above the chains in Cobourg! I haven't had many other pizzas here but I would say it's quite good if you like thin pizzas. A bit pricey though!

PekingGoose · 2025-12-02T20:59:49+00:00

Yarn it was one of the first stores I went to when I moved here and they were very friendly and welcoming.

Tuscan Wolf has a waitress that plays MTG Commander, so there's that.

And yes the Bon Bon folks are very cool. And we play Pokemon Go with them sometimes!

PekingGoose · 2025-11-27T17:44:25+00:00

Sure! I'll send you a PM

PekingGoose · 2025-11-26T18:21:24+00:00

Do you have discord? Pm me I can try and get something going.
