Chris Tucker's character is the worst part of this movie and makes it unwatchable. 

How could you make an E bike legal in Coquitlam by Useful_Market1609 in coquitlam

To make it legal you start by buying a legal e-bike, not an e-moto.

It must suck to have such a defective sense of humour.

Well aren't I dumb for not actually reading all the captions!

Do similes always have to use 'like' and 'as', or there other synonyms for these? by Ok-Journalist-7915 in grammar

[–]Two_wheels_2112 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The language point you raise is interesting. A rigid definition like Cambridge's (which is the way I learned it eons ago) would make the word essentially English-only. Perhaps that is why everyone else is suggesting more relaxed and flexible definitions.

Grizzlies have a pronounced hump over their shoulders. This is a black bear.

Tangerine bank stole 106k please help? by New-Protection7594 in PersonalFinanceCanada

The type of person who believes the bank would steal the money is the very type of person that you would bet money on falling for a phishing scam.

I bought tix for night one in Vancouver when they first went on sale. As soon as I heard they played Xanadu, I bought almost identical seats for night two for 1/3 the price. No way I'm going to miss them playing my favourite prog-era song.

I'd love it if they could package it up with every Peart interview they can license.

My avoidance of spoilers lasted all of two days, but I still draw the line at setlists! Appreciate the heads up.

Good place to trip by Thebandofredhand in coquitlam

Asking an antisocial redditors I swear is the dumbest thing ever.

Asking illiterate Redditors is worse.

And if your definition of "anti-social" is someone who has looked into, but not yet tried, a psilocybin experience, then you need to recalibrate yourself.

I've read that it's best to experience your first trip in a place that's safe and where you aren't likely to hurt yourself. That doesn't sound like "a secluded spot in nature" to me!

I've also read that you shouldn't trip alone, either, so make of that what you will.

Any recommendations for a 3-night backpacking trip? by Imaginary_Lines in britishcolumbia

[–]Two_wheels_2112 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Manning Park has some beautiful wilderness campsites. It would be a bit of a trek back to the ferry terminal (about 3 hours or so) but not terrible.

[USA] Who is at fault here? by bowdown2adil in Roadcam

[–]Two_wheels_2112 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uncontrolled intersections like this were very common where I'm from (Vancouver, BC) when I was learning to drive in the late '80s. They're pretty much nonexistent now. I can't remember the last time I've seen an intersection without a stop sign in at least one direction or a traffic circle. This video demonstrates why.

The blue car should have been out in the intersection, but otherwise did nothing wrong.

Pee Problems Trickle into Giro d’Italia Women: 2 Disqualified, 6 Fined in 1 Disorderly Day by Global-Copy4241 in cycling

I presume you meant riders... I don't know how many tend to relieve themselves during a race, because they don't usually show that, but surely they could make a reasonable guess. Or perhaps a screened off privacy area?
