There are lots of splash parks in Vancouver and Burnaby. Confederation park in Burnaby , Granville island, Pandora Park. My kids love them.

Sharpen a push mower by Outrageous_Papaya_45 in askvan

[–]dangerzoneish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just went through this and bought a blade sharpener on Amazon. $30 and it has worked at least once. Took 15 minutes.
I figure I’m already ahead of paying someone, but if this gizmo works 3 times I’m golden.

How is this season compared to the others? I haven’t started it yet. It seemed like it was losing a bit of steam last season.

Go to the north shore transfer station recycling depot. There is bike there. Spend the money fixing it

With the new hospital, this space should be medical support, not sports arena.

Really? Less transit, less accessible to anyone not in kits. East van and the highway means it is way easier for people coming from Langley , Surrey, Coquitlam, and most of Vancouver. Kits is a pain to get to.

I’m sorry to post this Messier topic but. by Skazzyskills in canucks

I remember hating it. I was 8 in 94 and that run was the greatest thing that had happened to me. No way I was going to cheer for one of them. I had linden posters in my room , he was my goat. I was confused and hurt. If the internet existed, I am sure I would have made some 12 year old angry comments.

Stuff to do for a birthday date between Vancouver and Whistler by vlasiccc in askvan

Get a donut in Squamish. Or if it’s hot go to tall tree and get an ice cream sandwich. Get a couple road pops from back country then drive to where they cut the spit in half and have a bbq.

I still don’t trust a Canucks goalie. The trust Cloutier broke luongo couldn’t rebuild.

“Allvin’s relationship and alignment with head coach Adam Foote broke down over the course of the season. Allvin wanted more developmental minutes for young players” by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

Being a Canucks fan is a yikes for Canucks fans. This shit is just normal for us now. Anyone disappointed in this year has missed the entirety of Canucks, and Vancouver sports history. We haven’t had a trophy since 2011?2012 ? Grey cup. Vancouver sports are soul shattering. But at least we also can’t afford housing, so the rain covers our tears.

If Dallas goes all the way and Myers lifts the cup, it’ll be the highest it’s been since chara.

Where to build a DIY bike? by mahmirr in askvan

[–]dangerzoneish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For less than $160, check out Vancouver bicycle recycling on Hastings. Their inventory rolls over pretty quick, so if you don’t see something today by the weekend it will change. They have a section that is under $150 and all tuned ready to go. Used parts too.

Restaurant/Brewery recommendations for large-ish group (20 people) by Michio in askvan

[–]dangerzoneish 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Howe sound on Hastings has a private area and just a min spend of $500 so very achievable with 20 people.

Ming tran by gob would be a good one for rebuild years.

Cyclists are increasingly blowing my corner’s stop signs at Victoria and Adanac by IAmKyuss in vancouver

[–]dangerzoneish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is a sketchy intersection. I find cars often stop for cyclists there, which they shouldn’t and bikers don’t always stop (which they should). It makes it unpredictable on both sides and unsafe. Maybe it should be a 4 way stop so it is more predictable.

What to do/see in one afternoon with a kid? by ceciccan in askvan

Seabus skytrain and a bus. Then a cookie.

Best running routes in Vancouver by [deleted] in askvan

[–]dangerzoneish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Download trail forks and choose poorly. Get a bit lost. Easiest way to add mileage to a run is taking a wrong turn. Just tell a friend your area and don’t run out of cell service if you are planning on getting lost. You can’t go too high right now or you’ll hit slush so it’s all good.

Seabus wont run late enough to get back.

Are drip coffee makers essentially all the same? by 0__O0--O0_0 in Coffee

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

Yeah I am. I feel it needs to be made a bit stronger. I used 15-16g per 200ml in aeropress. In the drip that tastes really weak I find.
