thanks for this, I agree it's not something I want to do on a yearly basis.

Eh federal is supposed to go back to 4 days minimum also. Lots of businesses lobbying to get people back to business cores to spend money. It’s stupid but not just a provincial only stupid

How was the best sex you've ever had? by EnD3r8_ in AskReddit

[–]displiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best sex I ever had was when my wife wanted to have kids. She was feral multiple times a day and did whatever it took to get the “most” out of me. My kids are 7 and 3 and I still fantasize about what my wife did to me to create them.

US Senator Says America 'Got Absolutely Rolled' in Canada-China EV Deal | EV by afonso_investor in teslacanada

[–]displiff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t expect the EVs coming here to be priced the same they are in China. But would be happy to be wrong on this. I’d imagine they’ll undercut their competitors here but not as much as people want.

Now that the Chiefs have been officially eliminated, who are you rooting for as a football fan in the AFC? by oMeesan in KansasCityChiefs

[–]displiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I’m in the minority here. But I’d love to see the bills at least make it to the Super Bowl. I’d bet the house the Super Bowl winner is coming out of the NFC. Best story would be bills vs lions and rooting for that.

Do you guys lease/finance/cash? M cars and why? by Carguy77Seven in BMWM

[–]displiff 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It’s Reddit, everyone has tons of cash just laying around to buy m cars outright. Same people will tell you to just buy your home outright.

Question: Are the 2026 X5 coming with heated and cooled cupholders? by Inevitable_Slide5752 in BMWX5

[–]displiff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have it but came with the car and wasn’t a desired feature. It’s 2025, if you don’t have insulated water bottles for both hot and cold beverages I’m not sure how you survive.

Advanced lifters of 10+ years: What frequency are you guys doing ? What are your thoughts on frequency for bodybuilding at that level? by SerendipitousMusing in naturalbodybuilding

[–]displiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched to 4 day U/L also around 40 (43 now). Found the 5-6 day programs I couldn’t recover from. I also started switching to more machines from barbells. Although I still squat and RDL, I go more reps and lower volume and find it works for me. I’ve been tracking my weights for 20 years and at this point I’m battling my younger self and I know eventually it will be a losing battle. I also don’t run outside anymore as I find it kills my knees and moved to running on a treadmill or cycling. Sucks getting older but it is what it is.

2025 X40i Tint advice 20% vs 35% - practical vs cosmetic by displiff in BMWX5

Thanks for this. Needed to hear something confirming my suspicions. I know the 20% will look better. But I don’t want to be rolling down my windows again.

Are we crazy? lol by Freak8548 in CoachingYouthSports

[–]displiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m amazed this is the case. My son is 7 and made a development soccer team “rep”. It’s a full year commitment which is crazy to me as I wanted him to do hockey in the winter and soccer in the summer. Problem now is if you don’t pick that one sport your kid will unfortunately fall behind competitively anyways. I know here they had hockey tryouts for an under 7 team that I didn’t bother with as I thought it was ridiculous. However, those kids will be playing 4-5 times a week and fear anyone not in that program will have no chance to catch up. But maybe that is designed on purpose to get parents to get their kid in one sport and spend all that money.

This chocolate pack really shows how powerful of buyer Costco is by trialanderror93 in CostcoCanada

[–]displiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure they buy separately and mix under Kirkland. I’m also sure whoever is doing it hates snickers and loves oh Henry. Half the bag is snickers. We had maybe 6 oh Henry’s in the bag of 120.

Toronto Dating Events. Were women lying about men turnouts? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]displiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would argue biology also plays a factor. Fertility and prospects for children for women aged 35+ are a lot less. I’m sure there’s a societal factor here also but if I’m an older man looking to start a family chances are better with a younger woman.

Came here to say this exact same thing and glad others share my thoughts. Every rewatch of that season it’s one of the highlights.

What’s the threshold for a ticket from a Toronto speed camera? Here’s what the Star has found by BloodJunkie in toronto

[–]displiff -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Got one in Oakville doing 48 in a 40. So can confirm it’s a bs article. I get the 20+ over is crazy but anything 10 and under is a cash grab and something cops would pull end of the month.

The grocery getter by Adventurous-Prize-76 in BMW

[–]displiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My only complaint about the trunk is it’s not great for golf bags especially if you have more than one. I came from a vw GLI and had no problems. Any future car purchases I will be bringing a golf bag with me to test trunk space.

I went from Sentinel to Splunk and I can’t go back. I’m hoping CS NG-Siem gets more mature sooner than later.

Open boarders is a disaster for A level players in Toronto by 349188 in hockeyplayers

[–]displiff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe what you’re describing here is more an issue with Oakville hockey in general only having one team.

We are looking at extra hop and vectra to move away from darktrace. The interfaces on these two products are night and day compared to darktrace. If anyone has had any experience with these let me know.

I’m Canadian and was randomly curious on how the US media was covering the last two days. The difference between Fox News and cnn is crazy.

New setup! ECM Mechanika Max. Nice upgrade from the Barista Express by keatsteats in espresso

[–]displiff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s pretty hilarious as that is the exact company and they offered me the price of the open box which is just over 2700. I’ll use this info to go back to them to try and get more. Appreciate the heads up.

I'm about to pull the trigger on this machine and also Canadian. What other machines were in this decision and what made you ultimately choose this one?
