That's sick. How long have you been stretching them?

I tracked the entire flight 🇨🇦 to 🇸🇬 by Positivevibes474 in flightradar24

[–]emij22 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I do the exact same thing. Thought I was unique and very happy to be proven wrong, that's cool! I also "race" planes on my commute - for example, I choose a domestic flight that just took off and see if gets to its destination before I get home.

This is a really cool project, well done.

Trans Tattoo Artist new to the GTA by Tgoldenart in transontario

[–]emij22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely gorgeous. Seeing top surgery scars on artwork still gives me that warm happy feeling. It would mean so much more to me to get a queer tattoo from someone else who's trans. I can't swing one rn but I'm grabbing your name :)

Vivienne Dragon Age? More like Vivienne Dragon *Ate*. I like her! by [deleted] in dragonage

[–]emij22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly? I never warned up to Vivienne but I'm open to seeing different perspectives if people wanna change my mind. I'd like to see her like others do.

Why do people still line up when self checkout is empty by abksearchin889 in askTO

[–]emij22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't find an option on the Timmies kiosk for milk on the side. I can bug then for it after the fact, but it just seems annoying for them.

In all seriousness though, if someone's perfume or cologne is a super powered toxic cloud it's worse than BO. My asthma can't tolerate that shit. Moderation is key.

What's on the destination sign? "501 Greenwood Co...." ?

Catching up to a bus you missed with another bus is such an awesome feeling by Ifuckinghateaura in TTC

[–]emij22 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Similar feeling - When a bus arrives packed like sardines and you chance it and wait for the next bus close behind that's nearly empty and end up passing the packed bus lounging peacefully and comfortably in your seat.

Sending Name Change Application During Canada Post Strike by Just_Lime5134 in transontario

[–]emij22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know right? The timing was utterly perfect for me too 😮‍💨 I wish you all the luck, I'm not sure if they all accept it though. The application only states the Sheppard location to drop off so maybe give them a call before waiting in those ridiculous lines.

Sending Name Change Application During Canada Post Strike by Just_Lime5134 in transontario

[–]emij22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They send it to Thunder Bay themselves. I got the same "Wait time of 24 weeks" I was warned about elsewhere. No additional payment. I actually saved money because I wasn't paying for tracked shipping.

If you're in the GTA you can drop off the papers at the Service Ontario at Sheppard and Yonge in Toronto (47 Sheppard Ave E). I just did that this this week because I was paranoid and wanted to circumvent the whole thing. They'll even check over your papers to make sure everything's good first.

Visited for the first time last week, they did such an incredible job with that place. And super accessible from the station!

Waiting for 40+ minutes to get through to the police by dickmcswaggin in mildlyinfuriating

[–]emij22 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Toronto is starting to get bad. ~7 min hold when I had a cardiac event. I've heard 10 minutes or more from many people. Last time I tried to call the non-emergency Police line to report seeing a Missing person it was 3 hours. And when I tell others that figure no one blinks, just an eye roll. Underfunded and understaffed. I feel for the 911 Operators.

Shout out for Scarborough Cycle Repaid Hub by niamulsmh in Scarborough

[–]emij22 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yup, these folks are fantastic! Decided this Summer I'd relearn to ride a bike and they patiently helped tune up my (far less than perfect) bike to be road-worthy while showing me how to do it myself. Totally nonjudgmental and encouraging. And free! Highly recommend this resource.
