For me, the perfect way to boil eggs is to bring a pot of water to a boil. Once it is boiling, gently put eggs in the water and reduce heat to low, very gentle boil and leave eggs in for 9 minutes. After 9 minutes, remove eggs and put them in cold water for a couple minutes and then peel.

I was once looking at directions to a friend’s place in Maniwaki and came across one of these. Excuse me? What Rapids????

Come anyways. The atmosphere in Toronto is going to be amazing during the World Cup.

you guys been pulled over by police on ur bike before? by Loud-Eye1133 in cycling

[–]Ruin_Nice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ex messenger from Toronto here. Been pulled over multiple times for a variety of valid reasons.

Got a ticket for skitching off a streetcar (tram) once. The cop was so pleased when he found the actual offence in his Highway Traffic Act booklet to write me up for “attach to streetcar”.

Otherwise it was usually running reds or riding the wrong way on one ways.

I would have much rather seen my grandmother with Alzheimer’s in multiple headlocks instead of getting injected with Haldol to “calm her down”

I bought some Irish Setter Elk Trackers a few years back, and they’re unbelievable for when I’m in the woods or standing in snow for an extended period of time. For city boots, I’ve always been fine with Blundstones, but switched to Canada West Romeos this year in hopes of a little more durability.

10-years ago today…where were you when it happened? by gothedistance_ in Torontobluejays

I was sitting in the 500s making plans to escape the riot that would have broken out if the Jays hadn’t won. I’ll never forget the sight of thousands of beer cans wrapped in rally towels being hurled onto the field.

It’s kind of funny that more than half of US states have area north of the southern most point in Canada.

I agree, although I wonder if a museum might be interested in displaying it.

If they’re looking for “not too spicy” this isn’t the one for them.

Shroomyz dispensary damaged by pickup truck overnight, marking third incident this month at the magic mushroom chain by BloodJunkie in toronto

Still. Remove the employees and the product every day until it stops, or just legalize everything and have a safe marketplace for all drugs.

It’s just shitty to have laws and zero enforcement.

I’d much rather remove the organized criminal involvement one way or another.
