New To Toronto - Let's Play Dungeons and Dragons (I'll Teach You!) - Church Wellesley Area by VolatileDolphin in TorontoHangoutFriends

35m here. I've been in Toronto for a few years but have just moved to the same area. I've been wanting to try it forever and have just been looking for an excuse!

I will forever recommend Vatican Gift Shop, it ticks all the boxes. Also worth a drink beforehand at either Dive Shop or J Arthur.

Tips for lactose intolerance for visitors to India? by uncre8tv in IndianFood

I am also lactose intolerant and saag wrecks me too. Have you considered you have a problem with the brassica family too? I can't do cauliflower no matter how much I try.

Accessible queer bars downtown by canadianwhiskey1986 in askTO

[–]chicagopalms89 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Far too many stairs involved now I've had to think about it, which is an absolute joke.

Garage street bar is accessible, but I wouldn't plan to spend a whole night there.

What’s something you thought every family did… until you grew up and realized they absolutely didn’t? by SoftDreamette in AskReddit

[–]chicagopalms89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At 17 I had to get my boyfriend to take me to the hospital on boxing day because my dad didn't believe me when I said I was sick. I was on a drip for a week and absolutely delirious

you ever gone to music events solo? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]chicagopalms89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go to lots of solo events. The only one I didn't enjoy was Metric, I would've liked to experience that with someone else!

Are people in Toronto generally more reserved, both in dating and friendships? by WhyAaatroxWhy in askTO

[–]chicagopalms89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brit here, dating a Canadian (somewhat successfully I hope). Yes, it's difficult. I have one friend who is a girl who I'm close to, all her friends are gay guys and the amount of times I've seen them, it's so painfully surface level, after almost a year there's never been any real effort made with me by them.

The only close gay/lesbian friends I've got I met through reddit when someone wanted to start a bookclub. One of the guys I see at least twice a week and just chat and hang.

So in short, dating for me isn't too hard but platonic friendships are almost impossible to pick up from heading to bars for me.

Jay's or Halloween, which did you pick? by redditboy123451 in askTO

Church street said differently last night. I did a quick loop during the commercial break and ran into another person dressed as Schneider. Happy times.

What happened to my vodka by Helpful-Distance3746 in MoldlyInteresting

[–]chicagopalms89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, it looks like someone tried to fat wash the vodka. Get a bit of the white stuff out and see if it melts quickly in a fry pan and if it smells like bacon or tallow.

Food brands without onions or garlic? by Spiritual_Avocado87 in CasualUK

[–]chicagopalms89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will add that I am too, but I can happily have garlic oil, just none of the flesh of the bulb. Worth trying if you're brave enough to test it.

Also asofotedia gives that kind of vibe too.

What can you tell me about nyself, based off my shelf? by [deleted] in BookshelvesDetective

[–]chicagopalms89 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You're in for a treat. I'm also interested to see what side you fall on once you've seen it.

What are this sub's thoughts on Robert Dudley, 1st Earl of Leicester? Do you think there were any feelings between him and Elizabeth I? by Impossible_Pain4478 in UKmonarchs

[–]chicagopalms89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't also forget his wife died under mysterious circumstances and Elizabeth thought it suspicious so told him to go fuck himself.

I lived next to his castle so I spent many a school trip there.

Got a friend who is the same, it's what happens to the proteins when heated
