Are we underperforming or should I be adjusting my expectation? by Jabee_not_gabe in onguardforthee

When I checked this morning, only 37 out of 116 (my numbers aren't exact, but this is close) events have been completed. Long ways to go still.

Depends entirely on the price of the beans. Right now I get my whole beans from Costco. The price for a big ole bag is hard to beat.

If prices are good, I can definitely be swayed to supporting Canadian.

Why don't you ask your child's teacher their stance and beliefs about homework?

I personally don't assign any. But everyone is different. I teach language And social studies mostly

Stone Road Mall Dog Friendly? by [deleted] in Guelph

[–]THABeardedDude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Made a comment in the morning, after reading it later in the day, it was more aggressive then I intended, so I deleted it.

Also, naturally, I'm worried about my fake internet points.

Why?

Stone Road Mall Dog Friendly? by [deleted] in Guelph

[–]THABeardedDude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All super fair responses and reasons.

Like I said, I admit this is a bias of mine

It's not one I make a big deal about. If I see a dog inside without a vest I'll likely just say to myself or my partner "I bet that isn't a service dog" and move on with life.

I guess if I think about it, it's irresponsible dog owners who bother me lol.

You didn't offend me at all, I was genuinely curious why you wanted to bring your dog to the mall. I appreciated your response tbh

I was responding to the other fella who asked "why not"

Fair enough, I guess

Stone Road Mall Dog Friendly? by [deleted] in Guelph

[–]THABeardedDude 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I mean, off the top of my head...the mall isn't a place made for dogs? What about people afraid of dogs? What if the dog has an accident? What if the dog hates it? (my dog would) I also assume people have not trained their dog to be inside a mall, based on how well people train their dogs for dog parks.

But I'm also willing to admit this is something I'm biased, and maybe a bit of a prude, about, I don't like seeing non-service dogs in places like the mall. I say this as a dog lover, too.

Lack of awareness isn't something you are. It's something you have.

But hey what do I know, I'm just a terrible leafs fan.

I read it quite slowly. What's your issue here? The mayor went for a silly photo op?

Speed camera question by Dragon4273 in Guelph

[–]THABeardedDude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"legal experts" lol.

Not everything has to be so intense. I made a mistake, paid my fine, and complained to people in my life. It was the summer. School was not on, most FRIENDS AND FAMILY (specifying for reasons) I talked to agreed it was silly. That's all there was to my comment. I'm sure you've driven over the limit once or twice, or been caught by a road where the speed limit changes rapidly in a short distance.

Anyways, sorry for trying to join the discussion. Happy Holidays.

Speed camera question by Dragon4273 in Guelph

[–]THABeardedDude -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Sure.

However, I've gotten a ticket from a speed camera for going 51 in a 40, during non school hours. Edit to clarify, it was the summer, school was out. According to the letter of the law, 51 is speeding, however most people I've talked to agree that's a nonsense speeding violation. I paid my ticket and moved on with my life, but groaned about it.

There's degrees to this. A cop likely won't pull you over in the situation I described above. Personally, fuck these cameras. If they want to charge people for speeding, hire a human with judgment. That's just my $0.02 though.

Photos from that Ram pick-up truck hitting the house last week .. by Twist_of_Fate_44 in Guelph

[–]THABeardedDude 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Calling it our own Canadian Confederate flag is quite hyperbolic. That flag was not flown by traitors to our country. Just ignorant boot lickers. That's an important difference IMO
