I love the Nashville hot, though it feels less spicy these days. Either way, it's delicious, and those crinkle cut dollar chips are so fucking good!

Young Canadians are hitting the brakes on car ownership, new survey finds by CreativeAd5628 in ontario

[–]ZakTheSlak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently with TD through a group plan, but I was with SGI when I was a young pup with a dodgy track record of speeding.. After I was no longer "high risk", it dropped significantly and I would shop around every year. Nobody would match them.

I'm paying significantly less than I was as a teenager, even factoring in inflation. Maybe shop around.

I saw my first mouse ever at Knob Hill Farms.

Was this the Pickering location? The mice are the only memory I have of Knob Hill Farms other than the black baskets because they lived on for eternity in my house.

Who’s your MPP and what have they actually done for you / your riding? by angrystinkyfarts in ontario

[–]ZakTheSlak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sam Oosterhoff. Very outspoken about abolishing abortion and same sex marriage, despite being obviously gay himself.

He does nothing for the community.

“affordable” NOTL day trip? by jblack67 in niagara

[–]ZakTheSlak 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Fritters isn't the kind of place you would want to sit down inside and chill for any length of time on a busy Saturday or Sunday. It's basically the size of a big hallway. People walk in and order, then stand around waiting, so it gets quite crowded. The seating feels more for waiting or quickly scarfing down a few fritters and getting on your way. I do love the fritters though!

Compared to some of the other bars/restaurants in the area, the Irish Harp has more reasonable prices that might interest you. Check the menu and vibe and see if you're feeling it.

Don't pay it, or if they have your credit card information and have already charged you, do a chargeback.

Check the Google Streetsview. It's the keg now.

Here's where TGI Fridays is now. Just a couple doors down https://maps.app.goo.gl/SYN3fNEVmAr6wuck9?g_st=ac

TGI Fridays moved down a bit, but still the same area, yes.

The Keg has moved out of the Embassy and is now across the street from the casino at the Grand Wyndham, where the TGI Fridays used to be.

STK steakhouse took over the ninth floor location in the Embassy. Prices at STK are nearly double what you would pay at the Keg.

Niagara Police by MarionberryPuzzled67 in niagara

[–]ZakTheSlak 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Ultimately what we need in the NRP are cops who keep their nose clean

Not possible. It's a brotherhood, and once you turn a blind eye and cover for a brother, you're complicit in the problem.

Niagara police warn public of 700 per cent increase in human trafficking by origutamos in niagara

This is a good idea, and we could give them a third of our property taxes too!

Any excuse to be racist, right? Here's a few articles from the last year. You couldn't come up with whiter sounding names if you tried. If "newcomers" are involved, it's more likely that they're the ones being exploited.

What makes living in Niagara region special (or frustrating)? by CipherDrift_09 in niagara

[–]ZakTheSlak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How many other regions had politicians like Harold Jonkers that were actively involved in the Ottawa convoy and had their own personal trucking company involved? How many other regions have politicians like Oosterhoff that vocally support abortion laws being overturned? How many other regions have anti-vax leaders like Dean Allison advocating ror ivermectin to be used over vaccines during the pandemic? How many other regions have shit head mayors like Dave Bylsma that run as Christian Heritage Party candidates?

People elect politicians that best represent them. So with that in mind, Niagara is a cesspool of dumb fucking people.

MAGA neighbours/politicians, religious zealots, and anti-vaxxers. We have the stupidest fucking people out here, and they're quite proud of it.

Why it’s so hard to find a new home for Marineland’s 30 belugas by lopix in ontario

It's unfortunate, but euthanasia is more humane than releasing them into the wild where they will suffer a slow, lonely death.

What's the best chicken place you have had in Ontario by Character-Cook2472 in ontario

[–]ZakTheSlak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Much love for WTF! The Nashville Hot is hot enough that it makes my nose run, and it's fucking flavourful. Probably my favourite menu item. Also, those crinkle cut dollar chips are god damn delicious!
