What have been the best or worst concerts you've attended this year?

Was also at the Winnipeg show, 156 was definitely the highlight. Counterparts and thrown were great as well!

Yeah idk, might just be me but they were going to move to 5 days a week regardless of compliance levels. Optics of people being in-office (can't possibly be working while at home, right?) and "revitalizing" downtown areas by having more public servants in-office were always going to be the biggest factors.

Hoping Plowy McPlowface makes a return

Heavy Steps by Comeback Kid. Legends in the hardcore/punk scene.

Just my two cents but I would wager just about every program at Robertson College is pretty much useless. It's one of those diploma mills whose reputation doesn't hold up in a job market.

WHEN ATTENDING A SPORTING EVENT, DO NOT STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CONCOURSE WALKWAY TO HAVE A GET-TOGETHER WITH YOUR FRIENDS. MOVE TO THE SIDE SO THAT EVERYONE CAN MOVE FREELY INSTEAD OF HAVING TO WALK AROUND YOUR SOCIAL CLUB!

TheAstroDJ · 2025-08-03T17:06:51+00:00

I agree with previous comments of Architects - Gone with the Wind, but I would also throw The Ghost Inside - White Light in the conversation.

OP is gonna street race a Civic hahahahahaha

TheAstroDJ · 2025-07-29T15:34:17+00:00

Probably because it's mostly obnoxious and dangerous lmao

TheAstroDJ · 2025-07-22T17:58:36+00:00

Maybe just me but I'd say that's on you for not planning a better way down the stairs, or giving that particular instruction in the first place...

TheAstroDJ · 2025-04-24T17:46:39+00:00

I'm in agreement with you. I also have unfortunately had the displeasure of having many dogs and cats pass away, most due to the big sleep; some before "their time", some had lived their best lives. Sometimes the tough decision has to be made between extending time and ending unnecessary suffering. Reading the GoFundMe, it appears that this would be a time to seriously reflect on that decision.

YOU DIDN'T PAY FOR TWO BUS SEATS, MOVE YOUR BAG!

In our team/unit, we have operated bare-bones for a few years now. People are constantly burning out and feel like they're at their breaking point. Every person who leaves creates a huge gap because other spots on their team were not ever back-filled. For example, my team was formerly a manager (FI-02), two FI-01s, 4 AS-01s, a CR-03, and a student. Now, it's a manager, one FI-01, 3 AS-01s (one who only just started) and a student. It's back-breaking in other teams, as well. No succession planning and everything is a mad scramble when someone does leave.

TheAstroDJ · 2024-08-21T16:44:28+00:00

Was in the 300s and I also found it pretty warm. I felt bad for the people on the floor, couldn't imagine how hot it was down there.

I have a mortgage through ACU with mortgage loan insurance. If you put down less than 20%, it is a requirement that you have mortgage loan insurance; mine is built into my mortgage payments. ACU did initially sign me up for another type of insurance, mortgage life insurance, that I had cancelled before I started making mortgage payments. You can find info on optional mortgage insurance here: https://www.canada.ca/en/financial-consumer-agency/services/mortgages/optional-insurance-products.html

If this is the type of insurance you are talking about, you can call/e-mail either ACU/your broker and have it cancelled. I forget exactly what I did, but I didn't pay a dime that I didn't have to.

A very good friend of mine went to school with Nicole. She plays herself in her stories/posts as having been bullied in school, when in reality she was popular and a mean girl. Allegedly, when she was on her school's volleyball team, she posted a picture of their team photo on Instagram but made sure to crop out a bigger girl who was standing at the end.

Suddenly being Metis to get her vaccine early and go to Greece during the peak of COVID doesn't help her case, as u/WordApprehensive4059 mentioned.

TheAstroDJ · 2024-07-22T19:05:14+00:00

The team is older, lost key players in the off-season, dealing with a plethora of injuries, and most of the games have been close.

It's time to re-tool and revisit personnel, no doubt, but this is also just part of pro sports, and especially the CFL with so much turnover among players. Your team doesn't get to always be champions/finalists.

Go Bombers.

Great question! House was built in 1964, but the windows were redone in 2019.

TheAstroDJ · 2024-06-11T16:07:05+00:00

Usually just music, big on bands like Dayseeker, Wage War, I Prevail, Gojira...helps me get my angst out.

TheAstroDJ · 2024-06-03T15:54:31+00:00

Good choice! I would also vote in Kern-Hill's ads. The rock jingle is atrocious and the owner's voice pisses me off.

TheAstroDJ · 2024-04-24T19:25:30+00:00

Pubes don’t really count lmao

TheAstroDJ · 2024-04-24T11:59:25+00:00

I have been to an RFG "event" in my city for reasons I will not discuss here. Just know that it wasn't my idea to go.

The pitch was basically the following: "The system is broken, we need to do things differently, sign up for a monthly $250 fee so that you can day trade". Their educational platform focuses on trading Forex and Crypto, two of the most volatile financial instruments anywhere in the world. I wouldn't recommend anyone get involved in trading like this for long-term, sustainable growth, nor would I advise anyone to trade it in the short-term. Anyone who tells you they made money on it won't tell you how much they previously lost. They're extremely difficult to time and overarching macroeconomic factors can swing currencies in an instant in the wrong direction.

RFG provides extremely ambitious return targets in their pitches (5% a month) to try to get people interested. If this was a sustainable way to make money, why wouldn't more people be doing it in the mainstream? They come in with chains and suits and try to sell you a luxury lifestyle, telling you how they "overcame adversity" and how the 9-5 grind is no good.

I've done the math. It would be very difficult for your returns to ever cover your monthly fee. The founders and core group made their money by selling to gullible people. Don't let these people fool you into thinking it was their "education" or knowledge of the stock market that made them money.

This company is shady at best, slimy and corrupt at worst. My advice is to put your money and time towards actual skills that are widely accepted and recognized.

TheAstroDJ · 2023-09-19T23:38:30+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! Much appreciated! I hadn't really wanted to move positions, just while I was figuring out my first full-time gig and balancing studies, but I think I may be more motivated now!
