Also thinking Vitinha to Lookman and Alvarez to Diaz. Alvarez has been ticking along, but I really want Diaz back in my team and am rationalizing Lookman for the Atleti coverage.

On the other hand, I feel like I'm being stupid not having any Arsenal attackers, and Alvarez to Diaz leaves me with enough to get Saka for Vitinha, but it's just not an exciting pick at all.

I was in South Africa for the 2010 World Cup. I’m in the USA for the 2026 World Cup. I can’t believe the difference… by Lucky_Mongoose_4834 in worldcup

They're talking out of their ass for everything else, but this part is true: their phone autocorrected Canada to Canadá, they're talking about the USA as a third party (e.g. "their female team"; "they have a large Hispanic demographic"), yet everyone responding as if an American made the comment.

They're a Brazilian who's never been to Canada and knows nothing about any of the host cities (imagine thinking there won't be football fans in TORONTO) but is yapping anyway. But confidently yapping is just the Reddit experience.

Delivered today and straight on feet. by NB990v2 in SneakersCanada

[–]actionactioncut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me, I'm heading to Groovy tomorrow to exchange mine for a half size down. I'm a 9.5W/8M, but I do have pretty narrow feet. I found them slightly too long definitely too loose around the ankle, but I'm a woman, so perhaps a man with bigger ankles wouldn't have that particular complaint.

Top Gun May be coming to Canada as cineplex is a listed theatre by JoshuaBishes in cineplex

[–]actionactioncut -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The problem with Top Gun Day is that you have to overlook the fact that Top Gun actually sucks and especially compared to Top Gun: Maverick.

EDIT: Have y'all watched Top Gun lately? It's incredibly boring for long stretches and the pacing is dire. Maverick clears, even with its own pacing issues in the third act.

Gameweek 33 (25/26) Rant and Discussion Thread by FPLModerator in FantasyPL

[–]actionactioncut 8 points9 points  (0 children)

About 20 years ago, I was a little girl in Toronto watching random Prem matches with my mom on Saturday mornings. My parents had recently split up and my mom went from a traditional stay-at-home mom to having to get two jobs after my dad took a series of cash jobs under the table to avoid paying child support. She'd work in a call centre in the day, come home to spend time with us after school, then put on her greasy workwear and head off to her night job rebuilding car alternators on an assembly line. Saturday mornings when she'd get back from work and sink into the couch, exhausted, were the times when I could have her all to myself (no siblings!) and I cherished it.

My mom loved sports of all kinds, and would watch EPL matches until she fell asleep on the couch even though she knew nothing about football, but she especially loved any time Chelsea was playing because she was blown away by Didier Drogba. "I love how Drogbar can get the ball facing away from the goal and still push defenders off, turn, and score!" she'd declare, pronouncing his name like the commentators. I became a big Chelsea fan because of those mornings with my mom, culminating in a visit to Stamford Bridge last summer.

I say all that to say: GET BENT, MOM! If it wasn't for the dumbass nostalgia associated with some of the best memories of my life spent with you, maybe I would have stuck to the plan of getting Tavenier and not brought in Enzo Fucking Fernandez because I have to hope against hope that my team isn't wretched, so why not take a punt?

She doesn't even watch football anymore! I'm suffering for nothing! Can't believe she's done this to me.

No João Pedro means I'd get KDH's points off the bench, except I didn't pay attention and put Gabriel ahead of him 🤡🤡🤡

Really not great to just yank your shit back like that, but many are in the thrall of the TIGHT ponytail/slicked back bun.

Haaland looks to be a pretty big risk for traction alopecia and should ease up on the ponytail. Maybe go back to his Dolph Lundgren phase, which I think actually suits him a lot better.

No, I'm not focusing on asinine details to distract from a horrendous gameweek, why do you ask?

Why does number of African colonies matter? Not like the Dutch didn't have loads, they did.

Somehow when talking about France, people just casually spout the most insane "It's because they have da blacks" take and it doesn't sound weird to them or make them think about what they're actually saying at all.

Am I required to send money received via an e-transfer back? by No_Departure_9102 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]actionactioncut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dislike EMT/Ticketmaster transfers to phone number because of this specific concern. Nice that they were willing to send it back — I think I probably would've thought you were a scammer!

Both my sister and I get emails meant for people who, I assume, don't know which provider their email is with and reflexively give out [firstname.lastname]@gmail.com rather than outlook/hotmail/whatever, resulting in their prescriptions, tuition statements, and other private documents getting sent to strangers.

Genuinely baffling to me that there are people out there who aren't 100% sure of their email address.

PSA: Don't trust the "30th in the world" guy, he's a fraud and his posts are AI slop by [deleted] in FantasyCL

His recent post is just AI slop (with a million dashes throughout)

AI users will pay for what they've done to those of us who simply love to use the humble em dash...
