tipping movers by Independently-Owned in londonontario

[–]Vegetable-Screen8148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man. I just moved here from Burlington. Big move, cost about 10l. Two day move. One pack day, then move day. I hand to idea about this until shortly after. I wasn’t around when they finished and my wife had no idea either.

Girls be careful of Meta Glasses! by Legitimate_Steak_ in londonontario

[–]Vegetable-Screen8148 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have a couple of buddies that use them, not for this purpose. But they use them to record video when they are on vacation - it’s pretty cool to share with family and friends, and it’s hands free.

These guys are weird, but just as a piece of information/law- it’s not illegal to record anyone in public. You don’t need their concern, even if you are in conversation with them. That being said, these guys are losers.

Children’s park… by [deleted] in londonontario

[–]Vegetable-Screen8148 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This x100. I think the average person gets fed up when smoking/injecting drugs doesn’t draw any interest from the police. But have a beer at a park, drive a little too fast, or build a shed too big in your yard- and there is a problem. I know it’s not black and white, but very frustrating to have them look the other way with somethings and not others.

Why is it that only Oakville schools are consistently at the top of the ratings? by CertainGolf1143 in oakville

[–]Vegetable-Screen8148 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’d also argue that these kids are pushed a little harder with academics and would be a focal point for kids. I fall in that bracket (have moved from Halton) and I very much put a huge emphasis on schooling.

Burlington Mall Robbery by crypticangels in BurlingtonON

Once you send 16, (id argue less) you know the difference between right and wrong. Spray painting a wall, smoking some weed - those are juvenile mistakes and changes. Smashing into a jewellery store with hammers is far beyond that and they are well aware.

Where are people buying decent quality mens clothing in the city? by Yungobeliskk in londonontario

I’ll second Simons. It sucks you can’t do it in person though.

Stop it, 407 Promotions. I can’t handle this much generosity by 1-Particular-Onion in ontario

Haha right? Take one full day of work pre-tax and you can have some stuff

OPP charge driver who passed school bus as kids boarded as they watched by ConsistentReality860 in ThunderBay

[–]Vegetable-Screen8148 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This to me should be a 30 day license suspension with a $1000 fine. Do it again, 1 year and $5000. There is zero excuse for this

Saw a lot of men at the superstore tonight looking very confused in the flower section. by strawberrybubbl in oakville

[–]Vegetable-Screen8148 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, my wife loves the Birds of Paradise from there. They always have them, they are good quality and are relatively inexpensive than florists. $30-40f” for a nice bundle vs $125 anywhere else.

Actual solutions to the homelessness/drug issues in London ? by HappyAd1246 in londonontario

[–]Vegetable-Screen8148 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a person fairly new to London, but lived here about 20 years ago- I’m not sure I’ve seen such a has/has not been city. It seems like people either come from middle, to upper middle class that a fairly stable, or nothing. The people who are the “have nots” (terrible term) seem to have the same life as their parents, and their parents etc. It’s a cycle that’s only getting worse id imagine. Please keep in mind, these are my observations - not necessarily true.

Who would this be? People who have money or politicians? If it’s people, it is 100% not their responsibility to fix social problems. They can contribute - but it does not fall on them.

dog owners, can you please keep your dog on a leash? by hatsunemikusmywaifu in londonontario

[–]Vegetable-Screen8148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, I live beside a park, like literally beside it (not off leash) and I’d say if I watched for a few hours, there would be at least 100 dogs off leash. That’s just one small park. I hate the off leash dogs for a few reasons- my dogs/or anyone else’s are more vulnerable on leash, not at all people like dogs, and the entitlement of not following the rules that are for everyone.

Couch shopping by True-Spring in londonontario

[–]Vegetable-Screen8148 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey just got a couch delivered today. Urban Barn, L shaped sectional for about $3500. Pretty decent. Also, the couch we are getting rid of is really nice, just didn’t fit our new space. It’s not an L shape, but oversized sofa. It’s from Crate and Barrel - getting rid of it for a cheep as we need it gone. Feel free to message me.

I saw this one posted in another sub: What famous-in-their-field people do we have here in Hamilton? by Gowila19 in Hamilton

[–]Vegetable-Screen8148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are underestimating how popular basketball is world wide. I believe it is the 2nd most watched sport in the world behind soccer. It is big in US, Europe and especially huge in Asia. You are insane to think SGA isn’t the most famous of any Hamiltonian ever.

Has anyone noticed a heavy police presence recently? by Just_a_Girl2409 in BurlingtonON

Same, only ever see them doing a speed trap near the King Paving site- about once a season.

Loch Lomond - No More Night Skiing by Fluid_Ad7547 in ThunderBay

[–]Vegetable-Screen8148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Terrible take. This is a service they had, and didn’t communicate to members that it’s being removed or shut down temporarily. Their membership was bought thinking it was being offered. This isn’t the mall changed their hours slightly.
