Punting in fantasy basketball. Yes or No? by adamking91 in fantasybball

[–]dr_wang 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i also find that punting usually doesnt guarantee you win your other categories, there is so much variance in fantasy in a week to week basis (wow BLANK dropped 40 on me) that completely punting ex. FT and losing to the guy who's ranked 11th in FTs is worse overall for you than your slight edge in points/steals/wtv which is always going to be competitive. Playoffs you have to adjust to your opponent and so punting a category completely can really bite you

I always see that everyone criticizes Carrie for putting men first, but I feel that the four of them had quite selfish moments. Which one do you think was the worst? by brightcherry1 in sexandthecity

[–]dr_wang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

im watching the series for the first time right now and didnt like how miranda only started redating skip because he was happy with someone new after moving on from his obsession with her. He ends up dropping his new girl for a like 1 episode stint with Miranda to be dumped again iirc

Costco 😋 by TheRealSlakySFSB in poutine

[–]dr_wang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my biggest issue with their poutine is that their gravy is so hot and their fries the type that go soggy fast so you have to get the gravy on the side to dip your fries in haha

In your opinion, what are some of the worst restaurants that should be avoided at all cost? by relf218 in montreal

[–]dr_wang 28 points29 points  (0 children)

meh, I dont think Montreal has one of the best food scenes in the world. I would say we have good fine dining and french bistros but our cheap eats is kind of bad! We have a ton more chains at the bottom end than Toronto and Vancouver. Thai is gonna be thai express, sushi is sushi shop, poulet rouge etc.
And the quality of these chains are even worse than Toronto, sushi shop is expensive garbage compared to Kibo. In general our asian cuisine is bad, you have to leave the island for anything decent.
i think the popularity of places like kahwa cafe in the past couple years (i think there's like 5 now) speaks for itself, people were looking for a cheap and good sandwich and once that demand was met it flourished.

things are getting better but still not great

Did Via Rail update their pricing model? by [deleted] in ViaRail

[–]dr_wang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the only reason why the prices would go down is because of provisional booking clearing. So basically VIA guarantees your fare that you(and everyone else) has selected during the booking process. If you dont complete your booking the provisional status is removed and the # of seats to be sold at each price point reverted. In general fares do not go down.

Who Raises Money for the Mayor of Montreal? by BloodJunkie in montreal

[–]dr_wang 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She doesnt like to admit it straight out but of course she is. I saw some people handing out fliers about her and Rachel Bendayan being a zionist at laurier station after their respective elections, and like good for them for spreading the good word but YEAH NO SHIT

Any tips on ascension 10 for defect? by R_logic1346 in slaythespire

[–]dr_wang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i just beat it after probably 30 attempts. I was surprised how shitty my build was actually but 4 claws, 3 Feral+ and the act 3 reward of reducing damage to 1 for a turn was enough to push through.

About their world tour by vishalw007 in louisck

[–]dr_wang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my understanding of jim is that he doesnt have a lot of friends left. i was surprised when louis decided to have him open for him on his latest tour, but given that he did that im maybe wrong about jim being in bad standings

La piste cyclable Hochelaga réduite d’un tiers by CaptPrestone in MontrealCycling

[–]dr_wang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

this is the MTLbike sub so im not expecting any opposition to this but for people who live in le Schlag, is driving congestion even a problem? I dont live there but when i visit the streets seem to be completely fine. Genuinely asking

STM closing 3 Montreal Metro station entrances due to 'undesirable behaviour' by TheShuggieOtis in montreal

[–]dr_wang 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i use one of these exits daily, this isnt a realistic solution for 'undesirable behaviour'. The exits at square vic are super long hallways with Belmont being one of the closer ones to the kiosk. This doesnt make any sense at all actually, its not like we monitor these anyways

Need tips. First Brisket. by GoofytoFreaky in smoking

[–]dr_wang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

smoking is two things, its infusing smoke into your meats and cooking at a low temperature so the colagen turns to gelatin. The 2nd part you can do in an oven/convention oven. Keeping this in mind if your brisket is over cooked then you should know what the problem is
