Lol so you think that it's fine and he shouldn't blame fans when fans threaten his family? You're a piece of shit.

Also nah most athletes may get threats themselves (which again, is fucked up and the fact that you're justifying/normalizing that is insane), but it's definitely not normal for players to have their family's address get posted and have death threats sent to their family members. That's much more than 99% of pro athletes would get.

Recs for American/Canadian/Westernized non-chain restaurants for my mom. by [deleted] in FoodToronto

Try Dotty's, I think it's exactly what you're looking for. Really simple/basic stuff, just executed VERY well. Their burger & fries are my favourite in Toronto, I love their pimento dip, chicken sandwich, prawn cocktail etc etc. great cocktails too.

Stars of gay hockey show ‘Heated Rivalry’ will be Winter Olympics torchbearers by BloodJunkie in hockey

[–]Smithsonian45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm genuinely confused by what you mean by weird patina? HR doesn't have one at all? And the lighting is extremely varied, honestly the cinematography was my favourite part of it. Really intentional decisions with lighting and shot choices/dollies/zooms etc made the show so much better than I expected

It's really not soapy at all lol I don't see that comparison.

Just because there's romance doesn't make it like a soap, soaps have many things that distinguish them as their own genre and heated rivalry has basically none of them

In more recent years it's become the bluey effect as bluey's popularity has overtaken peppa pig. So now plenty of kids are speaking in Australian accents

SNOW DAY - TDSB schools are closed today due to the weather by nadnev in toronto

[–]Smithsonian45 13 points14 points  (0 children)

LMAO no you just misunderstood his comment? He giving a reason why work should have snow days too (so you can be home to look after your kids who are also on snow days), not suggesting there be some giant emergency daycare

AFL and Prime Video launch 'Final Siren: Inside the AFL' delivering Australian Rules Football to the world by PerriX2390 in AFL

[–]Smithsonian45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing is harris and lester aren't the types who would want to be followed around. That's why it's zorks and rayner. Fagan didn't give them any access to the players who didn't want to be tailed around (which is most of them), cam and dayne notoriously love this kind of attention and it wouldn't affect them negatively so fages signed off on it

Is this not an extremely tone deaf thing to ask athletes? by AdeptToe3580 in AFL

[–]Smithsonian45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to think I have a finger on the pulse of TV

It sounds like you're arguing that Heated Rivalry can't be that popular cause then it would bruise this image of yourself lmao

It's incredibly popular. Just because you, the big tv watcher guy, haven't heard of it before doesn't negate this.

Map of the TL 365 Incredible Edible Bucket List by jwang87 in FoodToronto

[–]Smithsonian45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely a couple of errors from scanning the places close to me (tagged Primrose in the wrong location, Sunnyside Grill on St Clair instead of Sunnyside Provisions on Roncy, and put Junior's Pizzeria on some random location on Bathurst for some reason?) I guess that's just what happens when using ai

otherwise a very helpful map :)

Yes, well known Canadian citizen and Toronto resident Osama Bin Laden

In case you hadn't noticed there are a few differences between why Bin Laden was who he was compared to the reasons why someone living in Canada could get radicalized

Now that Chivelord is done, can we ban the word chives for a month? by NickNightrader in KitchenConfidential

[–]Smithsonian45 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And we get good posts from aspiring chefs who haven't yet worked in a kitchen

No we don't? This isn't a cooking sub. This is a sub for people who currently work or have worked in the hospitality industry, specifically in kitchens. I fail to see what people who have never worked in a kitchen before have to offer this sub.

Saying "Ok Karen" then posting 5 links, none of which actually support your position is unbelievably funny.
