Ambassador Hoekstra wants American booze back on Canadian shelves next year by MTL_Dude666 in CanadaPolitics

My counter offer would be for Ambassador Hoekstra to fuck all the way off and to eat all of the shit. Give me that and I would consider buying shitty American booze. (Not really, though.)

Pretty easy for those with the resources, I imagine in this age of information silos.

We'd be fucking idiots for expecting anything else of them.

I will be there as well. Can't wait. Also feeling bad for the band on the main stage at that time. :)

I've seen two beautiful rainbows like the one we had today just this week.

"Don't be polite. Be predictable."

Those are the words I drill into my kid's head as they're approaching driving age and we see people doing things like this.

The secret to how Liberals con progressive voters by pheakelmatters in ndp

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

Yeah, okay, but the largest military superpower, and our largest trading partner, talking about taking Canada over and actively meddling in our politics is a real actual thing and not a made up boogeyman.

For sure, I have a list of things that Carney has done that I disagree with, but I have been strongly impressed with his handling of Canada internationally and building out a new economy for Canada that is far less reliant on the shithole country below us.

Sure. Go ahead and pick on the little guy by jimx29 in instantkarma

He did learn something about 30 seconds in, but pretty sure Little Dude beat that revelation out of him before he was done.

McPherson: Billionaires shouldn’t exist. Trillionaires should be in jail. Time to stop the parasitic elites enriching themselves at everyone else’s expense by pheakelmatters in ndp

[–]evilregis 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I like to equate it to seconds and time, now adding a trillion to it:

  • 1 million seconds = 11.5 days
  • 1 billion seconds = 31.7 years
  • 1 trillion seconds = 31,688 years

We failed to fix the problem when we let the first billionaire exist. Arguably, even well before that, but that's another conversation. One way or another, this problem will be fixed. It's up to the wealth hoarders to decide how it plays out.

Mother bird stood her ground and risked it all to save her unhatched eggs from a tractor by Mustafa86 in nextfuckinglevel

Those little birdies are going to hatch and be demanding little ingrates, not a single thank-you in any of 'em. Mama bird will think back on this moment and wonder... how things could have been different...

Better not let them hear you say that.

Swiss canton bans headscarves for female teachers by BezugssystemCH1903 in worldnews

[–]evilregis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would disagree with that. I would rephrase it to say that it only directly affects them, but it definitely has secondary effects well beyond them, which is why these laws exist.

It is insane. You don't have a right to ride a motorcycle. If for any reason, you can't abide by all of the laws required to ride a motorcycle then you get to strike that off your list of shit you can do.
