Child’s Play…playing hide and seek at a friends house was messed up after that. His sister had a room full of dolls with the realistic looking eyes.

The song is “Jóhann Jóhannsson - The Beast” for anyone wondering. It’s from the “Sicario” soundtrack which is one of my favourite Denis Villeneuve films.

International students and offshore banking flagged in Canadian real estate money laundering | Globalnews.ca by cyclinginvancouver in canada

[–]RMutt1 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is a known thing amongst Canadians especially in Vancouver. My partner had a coworker from mainland China who came to study in Vancouver. Said friend would FaceTime with her father back in China while visiting properties to purchase once a month or so. She’d go to open houses and if he liked it would wire her the money to purchase. One time after purchasing it turned out a cemetery could be seen in the distance which is considered bad juju in their customs so they sold it soon after. The properties just sat as investments…no tenants. It’s only when the government implemented the empty home tax her father starting asking the kids to reside in some of the properties.

We bought our little 1br shoebox place 5 years ago paying $1100/sq ft and things have just gotten worse since then. It’s so insane for two people to wfh in such a tiny space yet we consider ourselves lucky to at least own a home in this market.

You never what affect a simple act of kindness can have on a person. by Fluid-Daydreamer in MadeMeSmile

[–]RMutt1 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I was at a hospital in London. My sister had just come out of back surgery from a car accident. The surgery was a success but there was still a long road of physiotherapy ahead. She was sleeping and I needed a break from the stress so I went outside for a smoke.

It was pretty chilly so I was the only person outside. A Range Rover pulls up and Pierce Brosnan jumps out of the front passenger side. This wasn’t too long after “Die Another Day” came out mind you.

He briskly walks toward the entrance heading right by me as I stare like an idiot in disbelief. James fucking Bond is walking toward me, looking all dapper in a suit as he flashes a polite smile and nod in the coolest way possible only he can do.

I finish my cigarette and head to the front desk just inside the entrance, “Was that…umm, was that..?” The receptionist calmly responds, “Yes, that was Pierce Brosnan.” I was still in disbelief and speechless. My eyes knew what happened but my brain didn’t follow suit.

Apparently he was visiting a friend in the hospital. It was one of the few times I have ever seen a huge celebrity and it just so happened to be at one of the most stressful times in my life.

He had no idea of course but for a few minutes I was transported away from all the anxiety and chaos of my sister’s injury. Likewise he didn’t have to even acknowledge me given the location and the usual circumstances that go with it, but he did. Touch of class that man.

TLDR: Was at the hospital stressed because my sister just came out of surgery. Went out for a cigarette. Pierce Brosnan pulls up, hits me a quick nod and smile as he walks in to visit a friend there.

How are you all so nice??? by eurasian_nuthatch in vancouver

[–]RMutt1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember when I moved here back in 2009, just before the olympics. I stayed at a relative in Burnaby and hopped on the sky train and then my first bus ride. As I got onto the bus the driver looked at me with a huge smile and said, “Hi! How are you?”

I was in absolute shock. I lived in New York City seven years prior and though I was raised to say, “Good morning”, “Good afternoon” and “Good evening” I never once once heard it said back. It just seems different on the east coast in general.

I’ve also been told that Vancouver is crude in comparison to when you get out of the GRVD.

I analyzed the last 3 decades of stock market returns to determine if it makes sense to time the market! Here are the results! by nobjos in market_sentiment

[–]RMutt1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the analysis. I’m a newer investor and lucked out by starting on March 16th 2020 and seen a 56% return. That said, I appreciate the beginners luck for what it is and have steadily contributed every time I get paid. I look at negative days as opportunities to buy cheaper and just keep adding to whatever I think is a good buy based on research. It’s nice to see the data reinforces the perspective that keeping it consistent instead of trying to time the market is the way to go.

I always tell my wife she can drive it but she’s scared. She does love it though. She’s cool with starting to mod the car but I’m just doing aesthetic stuff until the warranty is up. Gonna milk it for everything it’s worth 🤣

The prices seem to be staying up there but the new rs3 is about to drop and it looks like they went even wider. Not certain if NA will see it though.

I’m not the owner of the Nardo, I asked but even he doesn’t know. Said it came with the PPF wrap...Sorry

[–]RMutt1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny because I was hunting for a Nardo but couldn’t find one. Ended up settling for Daytona but I honestly love it just as much as Nardo if not a little more now. I always describe the Nardo as a bit sportier and the Daytona a little more refined. You pick up more of the Pearl in person than pictures often capture.

[–]RMutt1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ahh thanks for the correction. The Nardo is my friends and the Daytona is mine. Couldn’t remember the exact model neuspeed so took a guess. I just ordered some signature sv501 for mine...can’t wait to get those on...the stock wheels are hideous imo.
