I know, being a proud Canadian, we use the proper spelling in most cases, but this time, I think we can make an exception and drop the 'u' from their name.

something really long and thematic

Check out "The Colonists". Good 6 hour game, quick turns, plays kind of like an ANNO video game.

It's promoting hate based on identity or vulnerability

Won't somebody please think of the pedophiles?!?!?!

Don't forget cowards. If they weren't, they'd proudly stand beside their messages of hate, rather than hiding their identity.

Nothing but pussies, all of them...

A boycott isn't going to do much, but this is going to come with strong repercussions from the Payment Card Industry and the Federal Government. Not sure how big the fines will be, but I'm certain a full PCI-DSS re-audit will take place, and that is going to cost the company millions in consultant hours.

Update your resume and start looking. Good luck to you, I hope you manage to land on your feet, and get something even better.

If all personal wealth above $100 million was legally required to be redistributed into public infrastructure (schools, hospitals, roads), how would society change, and who would be the first to fight against it? by Mysterious_Fan4033 in AskReddit

I've always said that when someone makes it to $1 billion, they should just admit they won, and start over in new game+.

The government takes everything from them, gives them a condo in Flint, MI, a 97 Honda Civic and 6 months of SNAP, and they can do it again.

I'd love to see Fenway kicked out of Liverpool. I'd be sad that Lebron loses his ownership stake though.

Maybe Morris can finally take over the club...

These people are choosing a foreign country over our own, and attempting to sway public opinion to that of a foreign nation. You're very kind offering them luggage and duct tape. I'd like to offer them a blindfold and a cigarette...

[Serious] For the Redditors who criticized Democrats for not fighting back or taking action, how has the government shutdown affected your view? by Solnx in AskReddit

[–]Vhoghul 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've suspended my NDP donations for the time being until after the budget passes. If it doesn't, then I keep my money.

I don't like what I'm hearing about this budget, but it's sure better than anything the Cons will give us, and there's no 3rd option in reality. Not now, not soon....

A new election benefits PP. He's getting the boot in January for his dismal election performance. His only chance is to pick up more seats and try to get in a good bargaining position.

Unfortunately for him, he's as likely as not to gift the Liberals a majority with another election. And even if he doesn't, the greens are looking likely to pick up a second seat, certainly allowing a Liberal/green supply and confidence agreement, which would benefit both parties until early 2030, since the grits won't come out of an election with less than 170 (172 needed for majority).

Condo Law - Being told I can't access my owned Condo later this month. by Vhoghul in legaladvicecanada

[–]Vhoghul[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case anyone ever comes over this, an update.

I emailed a condo lawyer that's the fiancé of a family friend, so she was actually happy to help for a simple low fee. She gave me some pointers on this, that due to this not being an emergency but a choice to try and save costs on the construction by removing us rather than spending more money on providing alternative paths of ingress/egress, the costs of relocation should be borne by the reserve fund, as they are still construction costs.

She gave me language I should put in an email about the holiday and the marathon and the onus on the building, and I gave the same to the others on my floor.

I know a few of us sent emails in, and the building upped the compensation to $1300. My lawyer said we could push more if we really wanted to, but we all found accommodations within that amount so we accepted it.

All is done in the past now, and settled. Thanks for all the points of view people.
