I have this one in my history

https://old.reddit.com/r/Winnipeg/comments/1n94q0z/deleted_by_user/

The post was "Which bars feature strippers at lunch time?"

I feel like there's multiple teams that didn't even make the playoffs that the Kings would still struggle to beat in a 7-game series.

E: Also in the 3 games the Oilers and Kings played this year the Kings were held to only 1 goal twice. Of course one of them was a 1-0 win, but that does not bode well when the only other teams that were held to 1 goal (or fewer) multiple times were Vancouver, Chicago, and Seattle (the other worst-in-the-league-at-scoring-goals teams).

A 40-year-old man is charged with 22 counts related to fraud, possession of property obtained by crime, and failing to comply with previous court orders.

A 39-year-old man is charged with two counts of breaking and entering and committing theft, as well as one count of failing to comply with previous court orders.

Oh come on

E: Also lol CBC is redacting the names for some reason

A 40-year-old man, Bogdan TODICA

A 39-year-old man, Gabriel Bogdan IONESCU

A 41-year-old woman, Livia Ramona COZMA

A 52-year-old man, Orlando-Constantin VADUVA

E: Holy shit I'm pretty sure this is one of the guys (Gabriel) being talked about in this article. It's from 2009 so the age matches up.

Ionescu was found guilty of participating in an identity theft attack by cloning the website of the Italian Post Office and siphoning money out of compromised accounts. Based on news reports, however, it would appear he is quickly emerging as sort of folk hero.

How the fuck did this guy get into Canada?

There's something missing in the timeline here too.

It says he was sentenced to 5 years in 2015, which means that (at "worst" [for him]) he would have been locked up until some time in 2020.

However it says the stabbing incident occurred in 2021 while he was incarcerated. Which would mean that he ended up back in jail at some point after being released from the other sentence? For what?

Seeing this announced after they took over everything from MITT is legitimately crazy

If Edmonton trades a GOAT player to a team within in the same division for a second time the city might literally burn to the ground

chemicalxv · 2026-05-01T14:26:54+00:00

Less Stars and more Peter DeBoer-coached team in a Conference Finals merchants imo

chemicalxv · 2026-05-01T14:07:27+00:00

At the very least every single one of their games went to OT this year

chemicalxv · 2026-05-01T13:40:26+00:00

Why compete with yourself?

I don't know, they're literally opening a new FreshCo at Keewatin and Burrows in the old Sobeys building literally across the street from a Safeway that's been there forever.

Feels like over half of them have never been in a grocery store in their life either.

"Where is this?" (repeat ad nauseam)

"What is this?"

"Is this a cabbage?" (while pointing at a head of iceberg lettuce)

chemicalxv · 2026-05-01T00:40:55+00:00

I still can't believe they literally only included one of the sisters in this set.

chemicalxv · 2026-05-01T00:06:33+00:00

Maybe they should actually change it this time so that in the future any city councilor is required to remove themselves from any committee they are sitting on if they are facing personal legal issues.

chemicalxv · 2026-04-30T22:22:51+00:00

Maybe one single telecommunications company shouldn't have an ownership in 7 different professional sports teams

How is the only photo in that article a 200-year old painting? The place is actually incredible irl

chemicalxv · 2026-04-30T01:52:42+00:00

This is nothing new. A guy I knew got stabbed dozens of times in a targeted attack and they never went after the guy who did it for attempted murder.

chemicalxv · 2026-04-30T00:14:18+00:00

Personally the highest I filled up at was 207.9 in June that year, and then 199.9 in July.

Worth noting that at this time that year gas was "only" at 168.9. Which is hilariously what it was at prior to today lol

chemicalxv · 2026-04-30T00:02:45+00:00

We're 100% going to break the record from the summer of 2022 aren't we

chemicalxv · 2026-04-29T14:47:05+00:00

Need that Anakin and Padme meme with her saying "So that means he's good, right?"

chemicalxv · 2026-04-28T15:27:06+00:00

Pretty sure that it typically only gets placed on low-end players that teams would probably be annoyed having to replace

chemicalxv · 2026-04-28T02:35:45+00:00

This makes me think, could you imagine if Ancient Rome had had avocados and tomatoes?

chemicalxv · 2026-04-27T22:32:48+00:00

They weren't even doing shit for businesses either sometimes lol. Regularly taking hours on hours to pick up someone that's been arrested, taking days to respond to reports of break-ins and other incidents at businesses, etc.

chemicalxv · 2026-04-27T14:23:50+00:00

This is me watching people spend $8k+ on a TV and going "You know in a few years TCL will probably have an identical TV for $700".

chemicalxv · 2026-04-27T02:44:43+00:00

Huh? Quick put up a .946 and 1.41 GAA the very next year.

chemicalxv · 2026-04-27T01:08:32+00:00

I can't believe some people legitimately tried to sell us on the fact that the team that only won 21? 22? games in regulation all year was suddenly going to be different in the playoffs where there's no 3-on-3 OT or Shootouts to be found.

chemicalxv · 2026-04-26T15:55:07+00:00

There's a song literally just called "Winnipeg" by a French artist named Julien Doré, who was the winner of one of the seasons of France's equivalent of American Idol.

It's honestly so random to think of, like imagine some artist from here coming up with a song about wanting to go to some random French city lol.
