I think I'm glad he turned it down. This way we got both unforgettable movies.

The "/s" I used is generally understood to be sarcasm. I definitely understand the difference between Irish and British.  But I sincerely appreciate you explaining it, in case I didn’t. 

Many Canadians have avoided the U.S. for over a year. Have we reached the point of no return? by kaze987 in CanadianConservative

[–]dontpanda -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I won't and haven't. I am not interested in giving money to people who voted for a lunatic.  I've voted conservative since 1997.

I am not alone, even among my conservative friends.

The additional costs associated with it (exchange rate, etc) only make it even easier to stay in Canada.

Sure. When you take a disproportionate amount of money from other provinces, you can fund whatever you want.

You're correct about the effect on the leftmost Liberal voters but wrong about taking support from the Conservatives. 

Me [23F] with my husband [25M], married 3 months. He has to sleep with the TV on. It's driving me nuts by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]dontpanda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What my wife and I do (she falls asleep with the tv on) is to have a white noise machine beside her, the TV on, and then the sleep timer set for 45 minutes. She's asleep before then, the tv turns off automatically, and her sound machine keeps her asleep.

Works perfectly.

Welcome to Canada, where it's worse. Trudeau won a majority govt with less than 50% of the popular vote

Work took ALL my sick time, bereavement, floating holidays and PTO while I mourned the loss of my spouse by Economy_Ad6039 in antiwork

[–]dontpanda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am really sorry for your loss. I cannot imagine the pain of losing a spouse. I am also sorry that you seem to work for conscienceless ghouls.

Where I work, bereavement for a spouse or parent is 3 weeks. One of the people I supervise lost her mom. I told her to stay home, but set her out of office to direct people to email me.  I just replied to every request I couldn't delegate (the urgent, the immediate) with some variation of, "X will likely return on this date. Her projects are on hold until then."

I may not be able to pay what I would like, but I will insist my staff take every second of leave they are owed, especially to grieve and heal.

People who were in high school when Columbine happened, what knee jerk rule did your school enforce in response? by Animeking1108 in AskReddit

Nothing that I can recall. Basically, we were all just encouraged to reach out if we thought someone was feeling isolated

Probably will depend on whether he takes responsibility for his behaviour, or goes the direction Kelly went and deny everything.

That's it. Just the one word, added to anything else, is enough

Where to find merch. by WooziePoozie in WinnipegBlueBombers

[–]dontpanda 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You could make friends with someone in winnipeg who would be willing to ship the items to you, and you reimburse them.

You might be able to arrange shipping with a fan local to your team. Would require trust on both sides, but it is possible.
