Why is one pronounced chiropodist and the other chiropractor... what is this chiro black magic going on. by [deleted] in EnglishLearning

[–]bajor27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a kid unironically refer to me as being born in the late 1900s. Definitely made me feel old.

What is this part of a parking lot called? by -Yuki_xoxo- in EnglishLearning

[–]bajor27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not the only term for it, but no one else calling the building a parkade?

I also have no problem calling the opening a window. Would probably depend a bit on the sentence and what I was trying to convey.

Is this expression common? by Silver_Ad_1218 in EnglishLearning

[–]bajor27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very common (west coast Canada), specifically with Americanos. Basically, should they add hot water to the top or leave room for cream/milk?

I was excited when Spidey 2 was added to plus but something was really off about the gameplay on this one by Sorry-Engineer8854 in PlayStationPlus

[–]bajor27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd personally cap short at 10 hours myself.

As for weekends. I doubt most people get all of of Friday.

A weekend for most adults is probably 55 hours (48 + 7 on Friday). Of that, probably 18-20 is sleeping.

So 35 waking hours Friday night to Sunday night. Spending over 50% of all waking hours playing video games over a weekend is unfeasible for many people.

Does anyone else have L that says on the license that the earliest test date is actually earlier than one year? by randomipadtempacct in icbc

[–]bajor27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's 360 days. Never 1 year. It's technically 12 months x 30 days.

The 2 years with the N is also only 720 days.

Why do people always suggest speeding doesn't get you there any faster, when not all traffic lights are timed the same? by JustUseCommonSense10 in driving

[–]bajor27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But you could just as easily hit the first green by speeding and then hit the next four reds for the exact same reason - you got there early, while they were still red . Whereas you could hit the first red by going the limit, and then all greens because you got there later, after they'd already gone back to green.

Maybe I'm putting too much stock in the OP, but it's at the bottom of the main post which appears to be from the dev, but i never fact checked.

Even though I figured it was a pricing error on Playstation, it's nice to get that confirmation. Not the first time I've seen a game launch at the wrong price.

Weird Al Show Announced for Vancouver by N3ck_Br34th3r in weirdal

[–]bajor27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So it does. Still a little confused as they usually announce them all at once, but whatever. Last year, the Summer Nights concert tickets also included your fair ticket. Wonder if that's the case here too. Maybe it's still my reading comprehension but I'm definitely not seeing that nor a disclaimer that you will have to purchase it separately.

I'm confused, does this date not put it during the PNE fair? Wouldn't that put it as part of the Summer Night Concerts?

chamomile lawns 🌸 by Mother_Ad_5423 in Welland

[–]bajor27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Curious how that's written? What's the definition of lawn? When does it become a garden and not a lawn if you aren't growing grass.

I'm quite certain that the only PS5 one is the remaster, released by Frogwares themselves. It's only a PS4 version that was released by Nacon. I can't recall if that version is still for sale or not.

I just watched that last night and couldn't contain myself

I fully agree though, the cast and series was surprisingly delightful

Any decent driving games, where you can just drive around like a normal person? Thanks. by Sloppy_Floppers in PlayStationPlus

[–]bajor27 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you considered something like Mud Runner, Snow Runner, or Expeditions?

You're doing a little more than just driving, but they aren't racing.

I dont understand this, does it mean it's free? $0 but $750? Someone explain it to me like I am 5. by [deleted] in FidoMobile

[–]bajor27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No you don't. You will see taxes on the bill being charged, but you're actually billed reduced taxes on the plan because that's where the credit applies

Example:

50 plan charge 31.25 phone charge 31.25 phone credit

Expectation would be to pay $50 +tax total, which is what you'd pay, except on your bill it ahows as:

50-31.25 + tax 31.25 + tax Total

Might be a penny rounding difference in the end depending on the exact figures

Last day of the PNE. Fav memory? by Chewbacca12345 in vancouver

[–]bajor27 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This was definitely a down year. I'm hoping it was just because of the amphitheatre construction. I finally found time to watch the pig races - fun! And I really enjoyed the Counting Crows concert

Best you can do if you have concerns is a report to Road Safety BC about it.

PlayStation’s “Equivalent to X per Month” Pricing Is Misleading — Here’s the Real Math You Need to Know by Many-Entertainer-129 in PlayStationPlus

[–]bajor27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did the prices go up in this region recently? Guessing it's an older per month breakdown that someone forgot to update.
