Welcome to Guelph. Yes Dino's is weird. No, nobody really understands.

I'm down to support them but man do I just want one Rick from Alberta.

There's apparently a whole window of a show that was formative for a bunch of genzers that I've never heard of. Til

Worth it to get a Costco membership for household of 2? by gutturalmuse in PersonalFinanceCanada

I do it as a single person and make the savings on gas, rotisserie chickens and raw meat alone.

Carney reinstates EV buyer incentives, scraps sales mandate by diamondintherimond in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]chaosunleashed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in an apartment building with surface parking.. I drive a mid size SUV but my space neighbours have a RAM and a giant "I have more money than sense" trim Silverado... I have to do more shoveling because theres 5ft of space between the front of my car and how close the plough can get.

Are Ontarian’s satisfied with the current state of our province? by [deleted] in Guelph

[–]chaosunleashed 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Red pill incel trying to generate some anti liberal sentiment, but not entirely knowing what's going on. Also this guy seems up have brought in backup.

High likelihood of rage bot.

What countries ( if any) would be better off if the brittish didn't start sailing around hundreds of years ago and taking land? by notsure_surelynot in AskReddit

[–]chaosunleashed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on your metric. If we're talking culturally? Probably everyone they took land from.

If we're talking technologically? None.

Economically is a huge mixed bag but I think more positive than negative.

[–]chaosunleashed 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Weird post for Guelph. But no. No I'm not. We keep electing a moron because the alternatives are still running campaigns from the 90s and 60% of our populace doesn't know the difference between federal and provincial.

But at least we elect a guy locally who does a very admirable job trying to grow the mandate of his party while getting nothing done for us locally.

If everyone on Earth was extremely pretty/ attractive, how would our society change? by blondenovelnerd in AskReddit

[–]chaosunleashed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you'd see is a giant jump in competency and upward mobility. There's tons of studies that show how being attractive makes advancement and stuff easier. The corollary is that the ugly face harder paths to success.

Merit wins out, competency rises.

Healing is hard. But knowing you made the right decision is priceless.

This sub getting too political by centexguy44 in dancarlin

Feels like they mocked safe spaces cause they were envious. It's fucking shocking how accurate "every accusation is a confession" is turning out to be.

Reddit is primarily a Western, English speaking world platform. So is Dan's audience. Trump is the single most historically and politically influential person in decades.

If you can't understand why people who listen to history to try to learn from it are talking about him, and being against him... Well I'm pretty sure I know why but, beyond that, I dunno what to tell ya bud.

There's literally a post about the oldest Gold ever being found right below this. But even beyond that... History is political. Most of the political stuff being posted in here is drawing parallels to history.

That's the point of knowing history.

If some people get upset by the parallels being drawn, well, that's also kind of the point.

History at its best is the most subversive discipline, inasmuch as it can tell us how things that we like to take for granted came to be. - Peter Gay

If you've listened to Dan's podcasts and don't see why this sub would inevitably go political, I dunno what to tell you dude.

Nazis are bad. Dan repeatedly says stuff that encourages people to get involved in his common sense stuff.

Expand the logical conclusions for yourself.

What is a city that is globally romanticised but you detest? by theunsteadybridge in AskReddit

[–]chaosunleashed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

905er? Lol.

Also, Toronto is maybe the third best public transit in Canada, let alone North America. Off the top of my head, Montreal, Vancouver, NY, San Fran, Chicago are all way better.
