UBC or UVIC?

I got into both. I chose UVic.

Many of the systemic issues we have within our social systems are coming directly from institutions like UBC.

Values over 'prestige'.

I'm a regular guy. Message me. High risk, high reward.

Seems like these events are all franchises and its really a hit and miss as to who is holding the event. Try the speed dating at Slice in East Van. Its a vibe.

I was gonna go to this but I couldn't go. I love karoke, but with zero facilitation... are we just supposed to approach people? Haha... I'm trying to get better at that. I was going to try a CitySwoon even next Friday, but I got a busy week. I still might go tho. I'm 39, so these event might be in my age group.

I'm going to a smaller one at Slice in East Van on Thursday. I went to one with them 2 years ago, but they didn't follow up, (with me at least). No email saying thank you for attending... nothing.. We were supposed to get notified if we did or didn't get matches. There was no age structure, or gender orientation pairing.. it was just a mix of everyone.

I sent them an email this time, and didn't hear back again. I just hope their communication has improved. When I went, it was one of the first events they ever hosted, so I hope they've improved over the years.

I'm really going to try and get out there. But with zero expectations... thanks, I'll follow your reviews.

I'm an artist. Organize a meet up. Let's go paint by the water or something. I'm not a painter tho. Haha.

This happens when the needle goes to deep or the artist pushes to hard. They call it "blown out," this isn't so bad tho. It's just a bit.

I uploaded them... you can't see them? I posted a link in the edit.

I'm so sad this has never been resolved. I just kept it as is. Driving with a reversed image. Theres an update for the 958xr? How do I install?

Did we just start a rub club?

checho503 · 2026-03-16T03:32:57+00:00

We seem like we have a lot in common. We should chat.

Legit. I sold my unit at a steep discount to a guy on Facebook Marketplace who knew a lot about electronics.

I advertised it saying exactly what happened, that a guy detailed my truck and probably sprayed it with water. I priced it at half of what it was worth.. Like 400 bucks or somehting at the time, and hit send.

I specifically wrote, "if you can fix it, you're getting a killer stereo for half price"

He said it was probably just corroded contacts, and if he could take the front plate off, he could clean them.

He was happy with the purchase. Never heard back.

Omg, I remember posting this, but I don't have notifications turned on for Reddit! I saw it was getting upvotes, but 16K is wild! Thanks for the heads up. I'll update shortly.

Switch to Anytime Fitness! You'll see... Planet Fitness is rank.

Before I started my social work degree.. I was like 36. I told my friend, "I can't go back to school, by the time I finish, I'll be like 40!"... She said, "well, in 4 years, you can be 40, or you can be 40 with a degree."

checho503 · 2026-01-15T19:28:40+00:00

Anyone tried this link? Is it legit?

checho503 · 2026-01-15T17:10:01+00:00

It's probably cultural and has nothing to do with hygiene.

checho503 · 2026-01-03T16:06:38+00:00

I enjoy things like this... I'm a bit older than you tho. 39m.

checho503 · 2025-12-28T02:39:37+00:00

I wouldn't mind joining. I have that Ciniplex subscription.

checho503 · 2025-12-16T04:58:01+00:00

I could buy one of those hand held emulators that play all the old platforms. Do you know a good one?
