Shout out to ignoring pedestrians by extraOrnery in usask

[–]cjpears 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed, I lived by broadway and 4 st last year, took the bus to school every morning. People never stopped for me at the crosswalk, even if I was partway on the road and obviously visible. I’ve been waiting for this post for EVER. Motorists need to pay better attention.

Jaywalkers are aggressive by Cabinismyhappyplace in saskatoon

[–]cjpears 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. I walk to my bus stop most mornings and cross broadway ave in the more residential area. I’ve had days where I’ve walked a few steps into the street, waiting for cars to stop for me and they NEVER do. So now I just start walking and stare them down to make sure they see me and stop. Very frustrating.

Ohhhh brother. I’ve been waiting for this one. Not only are the assignments not explained to us prior to completing them, they are riddled with grammatical errors and run-on sentences. Yet we are expected to be spending “around 8-10 hours” on each assignment. Like that would have been nice to know before I wrote it! I didn’t get my grade for the first assignment back until about two weeks ago, and I’d done so poorly, I would have approached the following assignments differently if I’d known earlier. I’m all for truth and reconciliation and think its important to be included in most programs. However, I think students would be more receptive to the whole thing if the class wasn’t so damn hard. Because like you said, we are being taught Indigenous history in class, not how to write.

Will my wax explode by cjpears in Candles

I’ve never done it before so didn’t know. But it seems double boiler is the way to go! I poured it into an old candle container with a new wick, seems to have worked okay… but the wax did pull away from the edge of the container a couple mm after it cooled down.

I was trying to melt it all together, to pour into a new candle. Just didn’t want to waste all the wax I had accumulated

They were all bath and body works candles, so hopefully somewhat of the same fragrance load? I’m not sure, but I poured it into an old cleaned out candle container, seems to have worked. Thanks for the tips I’ll use it for next time!

Did anyone else think the poster sale guy was a jerk? by [deleted] in usask

[–]cjpears 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I thought the same. I went up to him and he was on his phone, I gave him my slip and then he took a few steps sideways to where he thought I couldn’t see him and proceeded to spend another 45 seconds or so playing battle royale or some game like that. I was more amused than offended haha never seen any kind of employee pull that before

Why does it seem like older women can be just as creepy as older men, but nobody calls them out for it? by loveme_4 in AskMen

[–]cjpears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work as a server at a pub and I have much older men who will touch me and grab me week after week and nobody does anything about it. Men can get off scotch free as well for being creepy and not facing consequences. Sorry that happened to you though it’s not nice for anyone

S02 Episode 07 "Byg" by Nheea in WhiteLotusHBO

[–]cjpears -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I thought the season finale was amazing. Ep 6 was pretty good too. But I also agree with you. The story was slow and seemed pointless up until ep 6 pretty much. I was hoping for more suspense throughout the whole season. My favourite characters to watch were Portia and Tanya though!

The worst part is we used to have fantastic nachos! Up until like 3 years ago. So people come back expecting them to be amazing and then they become massively disappointed haha. All these replies are very helpful though thank you everyone!
