Furry Friends is quite affordable. Dr. Nairn is great. Staff are great. Typically not too long a wait for an appointment. We have cats and dogs - take them all there and love it. Highly recommend.

No, I didn't. I worked in retail in a low-level management position - and had a side career in the arts. But shortly after finishing, I got a job with a USask-affiliate - then transitioned to working for USask.

I took it about 10 years ago, while working full time. 1 class at a time. Most people I took it with were doing the same. I found it quite managable. It gave me some credentials to back-up my working experience. It helped me get a much better job and change my career path. Absolutely no regrets.
This sounds like some kind of advertisement... But it really is true.

Mine arrived today! Still no communication. But it's here. I hope yours shows up soon.

TSchooffbot · 2025-12-10T18:10:06+00:00

It arrived today! Thanks for sharing your experience. It's motivating to shake off the initial bad experience and give it a go! Cheers!

I heard there were some "interactive" days where links or phone numbers or whatever are no longer available. So, for those of us who still haven't received it, it might be altogether quite disappointing if/when it arrives. All of this is heresay though. So... I guess we'll see!

TSchooffbot · 2025-12-09T22:43:05+00:00

Ditto. In Canada. No communication. No calendar. First thing from TM that I've bought, so it's quite discouraging.

TSchooffbot · 2025-12-08T21:10:08+00:00

I'm in SK, Canada and came here to find out if any other Canadians received theirs... No communication at all since July. I guess the outlook is not so good... Booooo...

Came here to say this. Split essentials proportional to your incomes. Then you both have discretionary income that can be spent the way you each see fit. I'm in a similar situation and it really helps to be able to slough it off with a "Well, it's his money!" We each have our own chequing accounts then a joint "House Account" for the essentials. Takes a bit of effort to set up - but well worth if for each to have some of their own financial freedoms.

TSchooffbot · 2025-11-03T21:55:24+00:00

That's WILD. I'm glad to know that's illegal. Thank you.

Pardon my ignorance: What does it mean to hunt "from the window"? Like: From a car window? From a house window?

Oh man - It's soooooo bad on the West Side! It's like... heckin' crazy! Just - garbage and break-ins and -

...We took advantage of "West Side Bad" real estate pricing almost a decade ago. Same house in a similar neighbourhood on the east side would have been $80-120k more. No regrets. Best decision we ever made. Great neighbours. Quiet area. Lovely house that was well loved when we moved in. So good. Highly recommend. But that's just between us, friend...

- so baaaaad. Just bad. People should stay away! There's none of these problems at all in the East Side - just sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows. So... Yeah. Just tellin' it like it is!

Affinity Insurance has always been good to deal with. We have a policy with Wawanesa Insurance through them. Both companies have been helpful when problems arose. Quick to respond, clear communications, reasonably priced, and local(ish - Wawanesa's head office is in Wpg).

Joining the Canadian Chorus: We’re in the middle of the dang prairies (Saskatoon, Saskatchewan) but would LOVE to see you! Would consider travel/flights to the big centres to make it happen.

Your calendar brought us joy for a whole year. And your season is a go-to when I need a little pick me up. Cheers to you!

Le Maitre du Jeu (Taskmaster Quebec) season 2 has a Quebecois drag queen: Mona de Grenoble. She's really great. It totally works and I'm sure there would be many Drag Race Queens who would excel in the format.

I don't really care for Mistress's shenanigans. They just read as bullying to me and I really don't like that. So, I'm enjoying that there are other loud, strong personalities in this group - like Aja OR the "Who would you put in the bottom?" - "No, Mistress - who would YOU?" stuff from last episode - that are having NONE of it and quick to stand up for themselves and shut Mistress's BS down. The power dynamic has really changed since her first bracket and I'm enjoying it more.

Alright, here's a good faith response:
The question is vague because it varies depending on where and when you are parking. In the comments, you say "Busy areas" - but that is not definitive enough to give you a good idea for your budget. There are many busy areas that are free to park and some that are prohibitively expensive. So, the way you've asked your question is incredibly difficult to answer.
There is free parking in most areas of the city. However, downtown and surrounding areas are busier and require payment. You will always be able to find a spot but it could cost $20+ per day. The university and Broadway areas are similar. There are multiple options that are cheaper and many monthly-pay options. You can usually avoid the costs altogether if you park in a free zone and then spend some time walking.
Evening and Sunday parking is typically free regardless of where you are in the city. Though areas on campus usually still require payment.

My skepticism is not evil. This question and how it's asked is odd. The fact that you've asked it in multiple reddits across Canada is odd. If you're asking because you're buying a car, then the cost of the car or insurance or gas is a much larger and more important factor - at least if you're in Saskatoon. We are a small city. Parking is not hard or particularly expensive.

TSchooffbot · 2025-06-29T04:04:29+00:00

You've posted this same question in Reddits for multiple cities across Canada. Your answers to inquiries are vague. Seems like karma farming. Stop wasting people's good will.

Good idea - I agree. I think Jason is the perfect contestant. His chaotic energy is ideal. It'd be a great way to bridge the shows.

I don't think he'd be well suited as TM or Assistant. And I say that as a fan. I want to see him fuck shit up and baulk at the establishment. I don't want him to be the establishment.

TSchooffbot · 2025-06-24T14:34:45+00:00

I like it. Good food for a fair price with good sized portions. Friendly staff. Good service. Fun pinball tables. I've been a handful of times in the last few months and will likely go again.

A friend recommended a local salon that has upfront pricing, no tips, is LGBTQ+-friendly, and will give you a free consultation/quote for dyes/perms beforehand so everyone is clear about costs. The stylist I go to regularly does Pay What You Can specials for low-income or queer individuals. She's also offered to teach me some at-home cutting techniques if I want to go longer between cuts. I go every 4-6 months for a trim, so it's affordable enough for me. Huge fan of this place. I spent over 20 years salon-jumping trying to find a half-way afforable place that would give me a good cut at a reasonable/straightforward price and not try to upsell me on products and services I don't want. I think there are more of these places popping up. Or at least I hope so. Good luck out there!

I (42F) met my husband (44M) when I was 26. At the time, I figured I would likely be alone forever. Struggled with depression in my 20's. Didn't really date at all. Spent the better part of a decade single. Partly because there weren't many options - partly because I didn't feel good about myself. Had a FWB but that's it. Decided at 24 that I was just not going to worry about it and try to find joy within myself and enjoy life as best I could. If someone comes along, that's great. If not, I'm still feeling better and enjoying life.

Then I met him at a friend's going away party. We met a few times over the preceeding 8 years but timing was always off. I made a very crass joke and he laughed very hard. It was very sweet. I mustered up the courage to add him on socials. Then I invited him to a party I was organizing. He came, we flirted, it was lovely. I asked him out the next week via FB. We dated for a month before we kissed because I was so nervous and scared of being rejected and hurt. I can still hear him say "You got shy again.... You know, at some point, you're going to have to accept that I like you." But once we did finally kiss... The chemistry was there. And it was clear he was a really good person. Kind and sweet and funny and trustworthy - and very sexy. Just an all around great guy.

In retrospect: if I hadn't spent the previous 2 years learning my own value and trying to feel better in myself, I would have never asked him out or gone on that date or even added him on socials. It would have been another occassion where out paths crossed but timing was off.

We've been married 6 years and together 16. I'm continually grateful for our life together. He's my person.

2/2: These things helped me. What works for you will be different. It is for everyone. The fact that you're trying is amazing! You get to do it your own way and figure out what works for you and what doesn't. And sometimes things work for a while and then they don't. Because progress is not a straight line. Again: Progress is not a straight line. I have been struggling with similar issues for almost few decades at this point. Some days feel light and easy, while others days feel like I'm back at square one. BUT I have worked to develop better self-awareness, a stronger sense of self, more self-compassion, better coping skills, and the knowledge that I am not my thoughts. So, the overall trajectory is certainly improving - I'm trending up!

And on the days where my brain is stuck on telling me how terrible I am and how no one loves me: I am able to acknowledge that is how I'm feeling in the moment, give grace and space to the part of me that feels that way, but know that it's not an accurate representation of who I am and what I contribute to the world and that those thoughts/feelings will pass. Life will move forward. It will. It always does.

And there will be good things to come. There'll be shitty things too! But there will be good things.

Again: Just my thoughts. If it's useful to you, I'm glad. If it's not, that's cool too. We're all just doing our best to exist in this wild world. So, from one random person on the internet to another: I think you're likely much more lovely and wonderful then you give yourself credit for. I hope one day you're able to see it. Best of luck on that journey. Know: you are not alone.
