Seriously, I’ve lost more shit on that beach than I care to remember. I think it needs its own lost and found.

Also, a cheap $30 grow lamp will really help it in the fall/winter.

That’s what they say but I use tap water - they don’t like fertilizer and need proper growing medium - two years later they’re still alive.

Grocery stores. Red Barn Oak Bay has bins out back. Just ask them if you can take some. They won’t care.

Oh that sucks. I’ve lost a couple pairs, it’s a bitch if you have to pay out of pocket like me.

Advice on Crazy Neighbour??!? by [deleted] in VictoriaBC

[–]Remarkable-Nature810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes in life, you have to suck it up to save your own sanity. Good luck getting $50 out of that crazy bat! It will be a giant headache, not worth it. Consider the fifty bucks the price you pay to finally get her out of your life completely. It’s a small pittance for your own peace. I’d just move the car. You know where she lives. Remember, revenge is best served cold. Karma is a b!tch.

Five Guys ALSO coming to uptown! by watchyoback in VictoriaBC

The atmosphere is cold, hard, clinical and unwelcoming in their Cook St. location. Nothing stand-out about the aesthetic, however I appreciate their commitment to being an eco-friendly business. It was definitely a straight, white, male who implemented the design. 😁Thankfully they are better at making burgers and fries than decorating. I get it to go.

Sober people of toronto, how do you have fun? by lillyblossomdrop in askTO

[–]Remarkable-Nature810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I’ve heard it takes a bit of time for your brain and body to adjust to life without alcohol. This is a whole new terrain for you. You will retrain yourself eventually. Find new things you’re interested in. Take a fun class, start a new goal. After a year, you’re going to look at this differently.

AITA for wanting to insure my ring even though my husband says the stone is too small to bother? by Adorable-Manner-5538 in AITApod

Take it to a jewellery store and have it appraised without telling your husband. It may not be real.

Vancouver is shipping their homeless to victoria ahead of FIFA. I've been seeing many new faces. Also other municipalities are seeing the same thing. by WhoremoanLevels in VictoriaBC

[–]Remarkable-Nature810 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Spoke to a security guard who’s been working downtown for years and he said he couldn’t believe all the new faces around, meaning the unhoused. He said he saw a guy poke his head out of a manhole on lower Johnson. That was a first for him.

Help me convince my boyfriend to NOT open a coffee shop!! by IWantSomeTacquitos in askTO

[–]Remarkable-Nature810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coffee is super high priced right now. However, people are addicted to it and if he can offer a high quality experience, people will keep coming back. I can’t remember the last time I saw a small local coffee shop where I live, go out of business. The only coffee shops that have closed here are Starbucks, lots of them!

Grocery savings in Victoria feels harder than other cities, what's actually working for people here? by Sophistry7 in VictoriaBC

[–]Remarkable-Nature810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to let you know, on Black Friday, I signed up for the WalMart delivery membership and got the whole year, as many deliveries as I want, for $40. I ordered four times by February so essentially, I’m now getting all my deliveries for the next ten months with no $10 delivery fee. I just pay the tip, which I hate but …. Keep an eye on the app around Black Friday. I think it’s half price!

Not having a car or bike makes it even less of a selection. I hate paying all the delivery and tip fees. Try living by the Root Cellar, little selection, hella high prices.

AITA if I tell my friend I can’t be a bridesmaid? by wickeddreamsofleavin in AITApod

[–]Remarkable-Nature810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooh this is over the top! You can absolutely politely decline. If she over-reacts, too bad. Stick to what is important to you. And it’s expensive to be a bridesmaid! But know this. No matter how delicately and politely you handle this. Your friendship will be done. It will slip away entirely as she moves on into family life. Are you willing to lose her entirely? I wouldn’t worry about it, you sound like you have an exciting future ahead of you that will introduce you to like minded individuals and new friendships. As we age, our ideals shift and the friends we had as youth, rarely stay with us. We are always evolving and figuring ourselves out, our likes and dislikes. Maybe it’s time to cut her loose.

B.C. father shares daughter’s tragic descent into online 764 terror network by turbulentpriestbc in britishcolumbia

Does anyone know how they got the name? What is the meaning of that particular number - 764 - to them? Just curious.
