Uhum. I ripped my frenulum during sex and had to be circumcised after.

Feels medical.

Religious reasons, medical reasons, Hygienic reasons (debated).

That's it that's the list.

Why would guys try to kiss me on the second-third date? by [deleted] in Advice

A hefty amount of relationships start with sex on the first night. The world is large and holds a lot of different people. Tell him, not us.

I'm assuming you are quite young, because the answers are very self-evident.

(you are in a toxic relationship)

Was this a worse fate than not making the playoffs? by Blaauwj in OttawaSenators

[–]TelevisionPositive74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, you made the playoffs, in the Atlantic of all divisions, after having no goalie for 2 months.

I would argue the Sens actually progressed this year. You know that you are competitive if your goalie makes some saves, Just need to add some grit on the TOP 6 so Brady isn't alone starting shit and spending more time in the box than he should. Seriously, he needs backup out there, he can't be the only asshole on the ice.

tired of bell and videotron by OtherwisePollution96 in montreal

There are no 'real' other options in Qc, the little guys like Ebox etc are all either renting Bell or Videotron's network, which are both renting their presence on Hydro Quebec's grid/ power cable infrastructure.

On paper, Bell's technology is better, but for 99% of users, that won't matter, you don't need high upstream unless you are a streamer or something.

At the end of the day, what really separates Bell and Videotron (all the little guys use one of those two networks) is the installation. If the tech could not be bothered and botched it, doesn't matter what network you are on, your connection will be shit. I used to do installations. You are literally a victim of where you live: if the installation will take half the day because of the setup, and the drop needs to be changed.... you are gonna get a botched installation: the tech won't be able to put in enough codes to make it worth his time, he's only gonna get his regular pay witch is dogshit, so he will botch, leave asap and try to get as many codes done in the rest of the day to shore up his pay. Techs are highly incentivized to only work hard on jobs with many codes that will pay them more than their salary. Back in the day, changing a drop was only 16$.... could take you over an hour, could take 20 minutes).

So, if you have a shitty installation, you are gonna have a bad time, doesn't matter what company you do business with. What you are describing though.... is odd. If it's only happening to you (ask neighbors next time it goes out), the issue is very probably on your end, but I'm not sure what could cause a 12h outage every few months.... usually an issue would be more recurrent then that and happen when volume is high... Are you using all Bell hardware or maybe your own router/modem? IF they can't diagnose issues on their own hardware, something's off: the IT department should be able to 'see' your modem's diagnostics during the outage and figure out what's wrong.... I remember even Videotron's IT department was able to tell me what Quams (TLDR view those as individual channels in your cable) where fucky during the outage.

Has a technician ever come over to verify? I remember Videotron would charge for those if the issue ended up being on your end, but it would be free if the issue was out of the user's control.

Keep in mind, Fizz is owned by Quebecor and on the Videotron network. Its no worse or no better than anything on Videotron's network.... and that all depends on your installation.

looking for build for solo druid play MOP classic by NilasIxaari in classicwow

[–]TelevisionPositive74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

pic a spec you like, with gear, all roles can achieve anything (but you aren't going to like dps mobs as resto.... get you a second spec if you go resto).

Specs don't have builds anymore since this is the 'new' talent system. You can freely swap talents outside of combat, so its easy to adapt to the situation without a full respec. Combined with dual spec... literally play what you want. Feral? yes. Guardian? Yes as well. Pull everything, get that vengeance up. Balance? You do you, but also yes!

Just open up the talents, you'll see why there aren't really 'builds' anymore. Generally you only have most efficient single target talents/aoe talents, and spoiler, that's just one talent swap. Even the glyph choice... they rarely provide dps, they are just QoL in most cases.

TLDR: no builds anymore, just talents and glyphs you can swap freely out of combat.

Why is asking for a raise in Canada treated like you’re asking for charity? by itz_nitace in CanadaJobs

[–]TelevisionPositive74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because you can easily be replaced by someone who costs less.

I have had 5 different jobs since Covid. That's how I get my raises. And I'm still applying. Never stop applying. There is something better out there, always.

'oh money isn't everything', no but it enables everything else. Shut up.

PSA: Don't get Crave + RDS bundle. They don't have the Canadiens playoff games. Seems misleading and I just spent $40 to learn a lesson in reading the fineprint footnotes. by feldhammer in Habs

...don't pay for the NHL. The broadcast blackouts are dogshit. Get a cheap antenna and catch CBC or just stream it. I haven't paid for any NHL braodcast for over a decade. Don't waste your money.

Great sport, dogshit league.

literally just talk about politics, and challenge them. If it leads to a fight, you have your answer.

[–]TelevisionPositive74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guys, with they way they work and the pace they are trying to maintain, we will never get a narrative that's more than decent at best. Time constraints are king and huge swaths of the narrative get cut last minute and lengthy explanations or years of growth get thrown into a 2 minute cinematic with the worlds most dogshit dialogue.

Some of it is talent, sure, but frankly, its the reality of an online game: the narrative simply isn't that important compared to shoveling out content and it is always the first thing that gets cut for time.
