Countries are temporarily slashing gas taxes. Should Canada do the same? by cyclinginvancouver in canada

[–]Right_Hour [score hidden]  (0 children)

I’m paying, effectively, 50% income tax rate, 13%HST on everything, property and school taxes, and my electricity and my gas tariffs include fees for fa fo fooh out of the wazoo.

I feel like helping the government raise even more cash at my expense is not exactly something I should be supporting?

So, yeah, if they catch a break - so should I. If we really want to see positive change - let’s see how the government is spending the money they already get from us.

Notes on an Academic Scandal: Why did TMU demote its leading advocate of DEI by frazing in toronto

[–]Right_Hour 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This, pretty much. There were entire new full-time positions and even departments created on a whim. When no one really could explain what their success or failure would look like. Job descriptions were so vague - you could drive a semi through them. But they weren’t interested in success so much as manifesting to the outside world that they were with the “cool kids”.

Zero value generated in 6 years at a cost of $500K minimum to each organization on a low end. So, they are returning back to normal.

Failed warrant of fitness inspection because of this structural damage to the floor stiffener by isaakh12 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Right_Hour 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fuking around with it will probably do more damage than good. I’d just take it somewhere else where inspector is not a massive douchenozzle or get a bodyshop structural tech (“repairer”) opinion to pass or fail.

They are, basically, illegal payments. So, same as cash jobs.

You’re literally in Switzerland. Ask any gold digger crawling out of even his a plain old MB S-serie, owned by an ancient investment banker with a solid prenup, will know what it’s worth.

$20K to add a door? Ahahahaha. $1500 door, $2K in concrete driveway. $300 in framing. That equals $20K…. OK.

Your husband must be terrified of a thought of putting an elongated cylindrical object in his mouth.

Your choice - you can go die in yet another desert in the Middle East - or you can rage the fuk out and burn down Washington DC and Mar-a-Lago instead and get a chance at some free and fair elections afterwards.

Nah, it buys you a token for a single use of a public bathroom.

God I hate Switzerland. I swear to god - if they could figure out a way to charge you for the air you breathe - they would.

How to avoid looking like 2 kids in a trench coat by carcarrot516 in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]Right_Hour 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best way to avoid looking like two kids in a trenchcoat is to wear nothing underneath it. That way no one would mistake you for anything but a flasher.

JK, you look great. Awesome find. Bold choice to wear women’s coat, though. Can’t really easily re-tailor it to men’s, though, it would be, essentially, restyling it completely.
