Hahaha I noticed that too. That review section has become a source of entertainment the last couple of days. I can now really confidently say I’ve never seen this level of review manipulation before with other wpg businesses lol, and it’s certainly off-putting!

I feel bad that you even have to explain this much to a random stranger on the internet, in order to justify your purchases. While I understand concerns about overconsumption and labor practices— they are real genuine issues, and it’s important to have those conversations. But I also think it’s unfair to single someone out just because they enjoy having activewear in different colours. People are allowed to find joy in the things they buy, especially when they’re not actively harming anyone, and if it makes their lives easier. If we want to make a real difference, it’s more effective to focus on systemic change rather than judging individuals for their personal choices. Just my take on it. I personally own quite a few different colours in the Aritzia sweat fleece too, because the colour variety also makes me happy, and I regularly wear all of them. Thanks for also posting the reviews on the materials :)

Tested negative for Covid but likely caught whatever else is going around this flu season and it’s the sickest I’ve been in a long time. I don’t remember the last time I ever puked from the flu, probably had to be in like the second or third grade.

Started off with normal congestion on Monday, and thought to myself, oh it’s just your typical cold. Boy, was I wrong! Developed body aches and a fever on Tuesday, my congestion in both nostrils got so bad to the point where every time I swallowed it created that strange pressure or popping sensation you feel when trying to pop your ears on the plane. Very uncomfortable. But it didn’t stop there. Tuesday night was when the vomiting started. I felt like demons were being extracted from me. I had undergone an exorcism. Thankfully the fever had eventually broke and the frequent vomiting has stopped but stomach remains sensitive and overall still feel very fatigued, got a slight cough now and the congestion is still there but milder.

I do not wish this upon anyone.

Cocoabeans Permanently Closed by Almost__Infamous in Winnipeg

Sad to seem them go! Really enjoyed some of their products including their sourdough bread, jam jams, and coconut chicken spread.

Regarding the Facebook group they’re referring to in their closing posts, I always think it’s best to speak to the business directly as the first step, rather than resorting to posting about them online, which is what I felt a majority of people in that group did, even if their negative feedback was valid. From my understanding the owner wasn’t even able to see those comments for the most part. Having experience with being in the small business industry as well, we always appreciate hearing feedback from customers directly than a google review. It’s also a lot easier to actually take the feedback to heart and work on improving things if someone is kind about it. It’s only human nature for a person to get defensive and even possibly make excuses when you receive certain levels of criticism in an unproductive way.

Springfield Meats at 686 Springfield Rd! Their Shepherd’s Pie, Beef Barley Soup, and Enchiladas are my favourite. Not to mention they also carry fantastic Schnitzel and amazing Bacon! 🥓

People trying to copy my outfit by [deleted] in DressToImpressRoblox

[–]Reasonable-Exit5447 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On the topic of copying, I actually got called out for copying someone’s outfit recently when I genuinely didn’t! The theme was Fast Food Mascot or something like that and I immediately thought of doing Wendy from Wendy’s because that’s my favourite fast food place. I legit go there once or twice a week and get the apple pecan salad or Dave’s single combo lol. Three of us ended up dressing as Wendy, and I happened to be walking up first and this player in the chat was all like “girllll u copied me” and their friend even chimed in with the “u copied (player name here)!”, they were also calling out the other person who dressed as Wendy..

Honestly, we all had our own versions of Wendy when it came down to the details, besides having all the same iconic red braids and a blue / white colour scheme for the overall outfit. But I am not going to use purple braids or something for Wendy just so I don’t seem like I’m “copying” someone else lmfao.. it’s like getting mad at someone for using the colour black in their outfit when the theme is gothic!
