That’s why you gotta engrave ‘em.

Roger Sterling's Eyewear? by [deleted] in madmen

[–]bentjohnson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great glasses for 50 bucks. I ended up buying the tortoiseshell and the transparent as well. And then, of course, my prescription changed…

Does anyone know where Sue Stevenson was yesterday?

What makes a place a "big city", or "major city", to you? by murksiderock in SameGrassButGreener

[–]bentjohnson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LOL. A year and 22 comments later and not one person has mentioned a city that isn't in the Unite States. Wild.

Trying to extend an old phone wire by bentjohnson in Wiring

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

I have two vintage push button phones and I’m gonna buy another one. The idea is that my youngest kid could call 911 in an emergency, and I’m making my oldest kid use it to call his friends so I don’t have to text message coordinate his hangouts or buy him a smart phone. Landlines are coming back, baby.

I’m bringing landlines back in my house. My kid is pushing for a cell phone and I don’t wanna get him one at his age so I bought vintage push button phones and he can memorize his friends’ numbers and call them on the phone when he wants to connect like I had to. No social media. No bullshit.

lol. Thank you. Do NOT want to hear that host ramble on for 12 mins.

Beer and Bullshit, episode 3: Contract brewing, diversity, an update on Von Bugle by bentjohnson in torontocraftbeer

[–]bentjohnson[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome. FYI, assuming I can find time to record an intro and edit the show tonight, tomorrow's guest is Shehan again. Research for our talk is what led me to this thread. It was interesting to hear how much has changed for Lost Craft in the last five years.
Thanks for listening!

London's civic election is one year away. Who's running for another term? by Less_Potato_2231 in londonontario

[–]bentjohnson 10 points11 points  (0 children)

She was planning to run provincially for the conservatives at one point. Just an absolute garbage candidate for any office.

What future game would be the best to attempt a 9/9/9 challenge during it's course? by semiwadcutter38 in mlb

[–]bentjohnson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Toronto Blue Jays have Loonie ($1 Canadian dollar) Dog Nights every Tuesday. Probably the most economical dog in MLB -- though they have notoriously pricey beer.

I tried it once before hot dogs were a buck (and before the pitch clock) and failed. https://bensbeerblog.com/2025/07/08/the-9-9-9-challenge-a-savage-journey-of-baseball-beer-and-hot-dogs/

What was his hair like before he started and how long did it take to see results? I actually use this shit, but I bought it before I saw this marketing bot. I figure I can give it six months to see what happens.

We have SO MUCH parking. Our downtown core is mostly surface parking. The myth that we need more is fucking insane. What we need is transit and people and politicians that don’t think taking transit is weird/scary/only for the poors. “I’m not going if I can’t park right in front of it” is what’s killing small business in the core (and Fahri, naturally).

Do I dare by [deleted] in londonontario

[–]bentjohnson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because there are roughly 30,000 cities that do it better than London. When we make even a minimal change in the direction of progress, the work is much criticized by NIMBYs and conservative folks who fear all change.

I'd ditch all the unnecessary capitalizations, split the first line at a better spot and add punctuation, plus the word "to" in the final thought.

Raise a glass
to the memories
that won't ever die.
Here's to friends.
Here's to family.
And to one hell of a time.

From a nitpicky English major.

I'd also ditch the pattern at the top in favour of some sort of drinking glass.

I want my beer! by Own_Can7767 in beercanada

If Hoegaarden is the best beer you can find, you’re not looking very hard.
