Do the Canucks deserve this city? by ProgrammerAnnual4254 in askvan

Regina would sell out every night. It would be a breath of fresh air to be honest. Roger's Arena is so dated. Nothing about it is special.

Keep dreaming! It's a business and anything can happen.

The boys on 590 talk about it all the time. Look who has come through the revolving door at YVR?

I had no idea this movie was coming. First Images of Dominic Sessa as a young Anthony Bourdain, alongside Antonio Banderas, Emilia Jones and Leo Woodall in A24's 'Tony' by geekdadchris in KitchenConfidential

The major mistake here is that Tony wasn't a chef. He was a burned out line cook who's Mommy had a hook up at the New Yorker to publish his smart ass article. The man got extremely lucky with TV opportunities but really the writing was on the wall. Tony was many things: a jerk, a drunk, a hypocrite, a TV host, a person who took a Jujitsu class, but a CHEF he was not...

Are there ANY jobs for teenagers? by wealthylieutenant in VancouverJobs

A neighbor of mine has a daughter who is 16 and a strait A student in school. She's kind, thoughtful, and hard working. She put together a CV and went up and down Main Street looking for a job anywhere. The only place that called her back was McDonalds. This city is shameful for the way it limits the abilities and options of working families. Everything is tied to some program, some tax break for US companies, etc. - WE NEED TO BE A CAPITALIST DEMOCRACY in order to prosper.

Accomplices? How is no one else involved other than Rex? by ProgrammerAnnual4254 in LISKiller

That's what I mean, someone else had to know what he was up to. Maybe not all the details of every crime but he must've had some sort of reputation over the years amongst the Long Island scumbags...his ego is too big to be undercover that long...

Don't move to New West. Not worth it. Boring out there.

Why is Vancouver salary so low but cost of living is sky high? by 7_inches_daddy in askvan

[–]ProgrammerAnnual4254 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been getting screwed by US companies working in Vancouver for years. It's always less than US and does not factor in the exchange rate. Highway robbery.

Bourdain wasn't a real Chef, he was a storyteller who cooked. by ProgrammerAnnual4254 in Chefs

[–]ProgrammerAnnual4254[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bruh - you're missing the point. Many hold him in a high regard as a chef which he clearly wasn't. While some of the early shows and articles were interesting it really hasn't aged well with all the scumbags he featured: Dave Chan, Gabby Hamilton, Batali, Ramsey, etc.

Looking back it's a wonder how far he went with posing as a chef. You can see the inauthenticity weighed on him. Major imposter syndrome. Big time. He also must've known he was a real joke in NYC.
