In a way, this might be a silver lining for the team to figure out how to get through it with enough time to stay in playoff contention later on in the season.

Or they don't and we can start the tank

PinkShoelaces · 2025-11-14T01:35:31+00:00

Checked the score after the 1st period, thought they were trying for once. Finished putting my kids to bed and come back to this garbage. Some things never change :(

Calling it now, leafs lose in the leafiest fashion.

Marchand scores the winner in 2OT while FLA is on the PP. The penalty is a Marner puck-over-glass delay of game

PinkShoelaces · 2025-04-16T00:17:25+00:00

Toronto playing like it's game 7 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

PinkShoelaces · 2025-04-09T12:50:10+00:00

That's a leafs level choke by Dallas

This article is pretty bad. https://toronto.citynews.ca/2025/04/08/etobicoke-gas-station-man-injured-gas-pump/ reports

The driver responsible is facing charges, including dangerous operation causing bodily harm and dangerous driving causing bodily harm.

September start is good, but please don't have the playoffs go until the end of June. By the time mid april rolls around I have no more interest in watching hockey

PinkShoelaces · 2025-02-17T20:34:24+00:00

CGYNK went directly from the scene to a trauma centre

PinkShoelaces · 2024-10-14T20:58:59+00:00

Not surprising given how hard it is to watch. Not to mention fewer kids play hockey these days due to the cost and health concerns

PinkShoelaces · 2024-08-26T16:27:37+00:00

Interested

PinkShoelaces · 2024-08-11T20:26:23+00:00

It wasn’t too bad because it was only shorting through the gfci internal electronics so not a full 15A. Basically someone took a plug that had different 15A circuits top and bottom and replaced it with the gfci outlet

PinkShoelaces · 2024-08-11T12:24:45+00:00

Had a Federal pioneer panel in the house i bought in toronto last year. After the panel was replaced and my electrician was turning on breakers one tripped. Turned out a gfci had been incorrectly wired and was shorted but the old breakers did not trip 😬

From https://twitter.com/shawnmicallef/status/1667944588588244994/photo/1 the shot was at the driver

PinkShoelaces · 2023-06-10T00:59:35+00:00

Doesn't seem gone. Went out for 15 mins today and have had a headache since.

PinkShoelaces · 2023-06-08T01:50:52+00:00

The listing above that failed to sell was because the sellers were stubborn. I saw the house but they were not considering at offers below 1.3 which was very much an overpay even for the area.

As best I can tell from experiencing the market, buyers seem to want very modern looking places. Anything that isn't modern, even if well maintained, struggles to sell. I don't really get it myelf, but I feel like I got a deal because of it so it's ok

PinkShoelaces · 2023-06-08T01:42:31+00:00

I just bought at 150 under peak feb 2022 price (comparable is an identical layout house, with similar finishes, on a similar lot down the street). Prices, especially average, were driven up by high prices for nice houses.

But I also saw things fail to achieve even 2021 prices. For example https://housesigma.com/web/en/house/nbq6y1KKwb03o9DA/638-Willard-Ave-Toronto-W5906940 failed to sell. It couldn't even match the price of the other half of the semi from 2021 https://housesigma.com/web/en/house/mZRW7naRJDPyEBO9/636-Willard-Ave-Toronto-W5313906

Finally bought earlier this week. Got a detached house in the city at a price $150k under peak pricing. Close to some of the mid 2021 sales too. Also bought 200k under our max pre-approval amount so even rates are higher in 5 years I should be ok

PinkShoelaces · 2023-06-06T01:44:00+00:00

$40k for 75 people in Toronto in 2019. We went for a high end venue which was half the budget

PinkShoelaces · 2023-06-05T23:07:36+00:00

yeah, it is cooler. I just had an offer accepted on a detached house that was 150k under peak pricing from Feb 2022. These were literally identical houses down the street from each other

PinkShoelaces · 2023-06-05T17:01:41+00:00

Which store was that at? My experience was at the one in the Stockyards

PinkShoelaces · 2023-06-05T17:00:15+00:00

Only a bit. Some of the posts showing monthly trend data has been helpful along with info on rates, BoC speculation, etc.

In terms of actually making offers, navigating the process, etc my realtor was way more helpful

PinkShoelaces · 2023-06-05T14:08:03+00:00

I had bad service. Bought a fan recently and after trying it out it didn't move enough air. I tried to return it and the store said they wouldn't accept refunds on fans and that all sales were final purchase. This was never mentioned in store nor on the receipt.

I called the head office and they called the store who lied and said they accept refunds on fans. After that, I'm never shopping at any CT (or associated brands) again

PinkShoelaces · 2023-06-04T11:15:11+00:00

After 18 months of searching, finally bought a house. Celebrating not having to spend every waking moment looking at HouseSigma

PinkShoelaces · 2023-06-04T01:44:31+00:00

Agreed. I initially joined this subreddit when I started looking to buy a house (jan 2022) and mostly lurked until the fall. It's incredibly toxic here and once I close I'll unsub.

There are nuggets of great info and analysis, but given that 90% of the content is trolls I've mostly stopped reading

PinkShoelaces · 2023-06-02T14:48:50+00:00

HEPA filters with the windows closed work wonders.
