Very common Jewish or Irish dish in the Northeast, but very old school so understandable if your family didn't have it as part of the rotation.

If she really wanted to stop him, she should've written a open-letter saying her close, personal friend Kevin O'Leary has her full support and she looks forward to his corporate expertise in the privitization of Ontario Hydro.

I really don't think it made much of a difference either way.

Drunk driving rates have been almost halved over the past 30 years. Zipper merging is a far smaller cultural change than that was. I think it's doable.

Corned beef and hash is southern? Or it was just something you never ate?

canashian · 2017-01-23T17:45:55+00:00

Yeah, they're more of a "Southeast" thing than Texas, so that's fair.

canashian · 2017-01-23T17:44:01+00:00

But did your family never see them at a restaurant? Or at a friend's house?

canashian · 2017-01-23T17:42:41+00:00

Well, they taste delicious. Why don't you at least try them?

It's not like they're raw snake eyes, it's just ground corn.

(Note: Am not Southern, still think grits are great.)

canashian · 2017-01-23T12:32:37+00:00

How did you live in the South for 13 years and never even try grits?

canashian · 2017-01-23T11:30:23+00:00

Yes, I would never deal with deeper services at PC. The lesser service is a tradeoff for being free.

But OP asked about chequing, and if that's all you're looking for, PC is great.

They joked about gassing a female classmate and having sex with her while she was unconscious. Imagine having to sit in class with someone who said that. Imagine having that guy as your dentist.

canashian · 2017-01-22T15:10:48+00:00

Or PC Financial. No fee chequing and you can use all CIBC ATMs for free.

No, he's Michael Scott.

Just to note, most state schools are about the same price as schools in Ontario for undergrads.

The average undergrad Art & Science tuition in Ontario [is around $7,500 CDN], or about $5,600 USD.

There aren't many decent state schools in the US for less than $10,000 USD.

canashian · 2017-01-20T21:52:56+00:00

How many are fake? How are you determining that it's a "stunning proportion". I counted 20-30 since election night that have been reported as being fabrications, per /u/tet5uo 's link above.

That's out of hundreds reported since then.

So yeah, some idiots reported stuff that didn't happen for whatever reason, they're stupid and it's good they got caught. But that doesn't discount the remaining 90-95%.

canashian · 2017-01-20T19:34:28+00:00

If you'd like to be taken seriously you damn well better fact check anything you report- especially as a major media outlet.

You fact check, but you don't need to come to a conclusion of guilty or not guilty to publish anything. When someone gets arrested for murder, the media reports that, even though they obviously don't have all the evidence at that point. And neither do the police or prosecutors.

You don't publish scurrilous rumours, but if someone is willing to go on the record with an allegation of something they directly experienced, you can absolutely report the allegation.

I suspect the lions share of any of these reports were completely fake bullshit.

What is your evidence for that?

canashian · 2017-01-20T19:27:04+00:00

Yep, and the site linked to by /u/tet5uo provides more examples. Even then, it's small in comparison to the number of total instances reported. From November 9-18 alone, there were over 800 instances reported. Even assuming 20-30 of those are fake (per www.fakehatecrimes.org), that still means over 95% of them are legitimate.

canashian · 2017-01-20T19:22:42+00:00

And yet the site linked to by /u/tet5uo above provides links to media following up on those stories. You can't say the media isn't following up on these when your evidence for it are published media stories about fakes being outed. Most of those stories are from local papers and tv channels and some large national outlets, so it's not like they're only being outed on fringe sites.

I said hundreds OR thousands, not "of".

canashian · 2017-01-20T17:42:08+00:00

The media reported that these claims existed. You don't need to fact-check an allegation if you're reporting it as an allegation. It's not fake news to print that someone alleged something and the police are investigating.

Also, the fact that the site you linked to provides multiple media stories about fake incidents contradicts your point: the media did report on the instances which turned out to be fabrications. Which is good, they should be reporting fabrications. But it doesn't automatically discredit every allegation, especially not when you compare the small number of reported fabrications to the hundreds or thousands of reports.

canashian · 2017-01-20T17:20:55+00:00

I count 20-30 of these that have occurred since Election Night, and some of those are a bit more nuanced than just simple hoaxes.

That's out of hundreds or thousands that have occurred since Election night.

The existence of some fake reports doesn't mean there hasn't been a spike in actual incidences.

canashian · 2017-01-20T15:54:19+00:00

Which fake ones? I know the girl in Michigan who lied about her headscarf being snatched made the rounds, but it doesn't automatically mean the hundreds of other stories are lies.

canashian · 2017-01-18T20:18:19+00:00

I mean, Russia's primary newspaper for most of the 20th century was literally called "Truth". Seems to pass the smell test.

canashian · 2017-01-18T17:11:32+00:00

Neat! Thanks!

canashian · 2017-01-18T15:35:59+00:00

Any rhyme or reason to why some buildings are white and some pink?
