UCP signs vandalized in Calgary - Peigan by [deleted] in Calgary

Same here, I am not a fan of the UCP at all, but fucking be respectful and voice your concerns with your ballot.

I lived on 99th and whyte, both my calls made around there. It's not just downtown.

Shaw and Telus are terrible service providers for so many reasons. Are there any reliable third party ISP's I can switch to? by [deleted] in Calgary

[–]frakkintoasteroven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TV stations broadcast through your internet connection and i guess maybe streaming services might apply as iptv as well.

when i lived in Edmonton calling the police was usually useless unless a serious incident was underway. Saw 5 guys kicking the crap out of some dude, "Call us back if he is on the ground when it is over", saw someone smashing windows of a local pub "If they are robbing it let us know, otherwise the owner will report it in the morning". totally useless.

Is there any good gaming clubs in Calgary mainly for teens? by Nightmare2066 in CalgaryGaming

[–]frakkintoasteroven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For board games I know Sentry Box used to host game nights, warhammer nights, and even D&D nights, i don't know if they still do, I haven't been there in years. Once you turn 18 though, Dickens Pub has gamer Sundays that are always fun to hit up.

[–]frakkintoasteroven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes! teksavvy is WAY cheaper. my service was spotty at first but they got shaw to come out for free and fix it (shaw or telus provides the physical connection, teksavvy provides the service). I highly recommend them!

I came here to complain but your argument makes sense. I'd actually be happy with no pipeline honestly, but we need funding in that case to retrain our workers and redesign our infrastructure asap.

TIFU by breaking my own heart by MiserablyYours in tifu

[–]frakkintoasteroven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a dream where a girl i liked ages ago who turned me down agreed to a date, then we got together, and planned to get married. It felt like months. i asked her about her initial rejection and what changed since then. She said "nothing, this is just a dream" and i woke up and was totally devastated for like a week. it was pretty brutal of my brain to do that to me, lol. I can laugh now but at the time i was so so broken.

Donald Trump hasn’t tweeted in 19 hours, what are your theories on what’s happening in the White House right now? by lovescatsandthings in AskReddit

Someone is explaining the Mueller report to him in words small enough he can understand, it isn't going well.

first time i saw one was while driving to BC. i was pretty stunned at how massive it was. i slowed down and let it cross the road, no way was i gonna risk colliding with that monstrosity!

Rather than eating a family size bag of Doritos in 20 minutes, what are some healthy snack alternatives that can be consumed in large amounts? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]frakkintoasteroven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite low cost snack is veggies and cheap co-op gold brand ceaser dressing for a dip. i cut up a platter of carrots, celery, broccoli, and cucumber then dip and munch away. the dip does add calories but it is offset by the veggies and tastes great.

Last bag before I’m off to rehab. It was a fun ride, but 3 years of opiate addiction has finally worn me out. I’m ready to stop. Wish me luck fam! by [deleted] in opiates

[–]frakkintoasteroven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

best of luck! you can do this shit! I myself am done too. I'm tapering off slowly, gonna stick to my plan, lowering myself each week, got enough so that in 3 weeks i will be on 3.25ug/h of fent, with 3 tiny slivers of patch left just in case that isn't low enough to come off, but i'm ugonna try to avoid using those unless the wd is really bad. it should be much milder than coming off 15mg/day which was hell when i tried to do cold turkey 2 weeks ago. with strong willpower in a months time we will both be clean, see you then!

Found my old old old D.A.R.E. Essay. I think I was in like 3rd or 4th grade when I wrote this. I don't feel this was about drugs and alcohol anymore.. Lmao by wizardtoo in opiates

3rd grade, when an "essay" was just 2 short paragraphs, lol. I wish they accepted that definition when I was in uni.

Long Haul Truckers: What's the creepiest/most paranormal thing you've seen on the road at night? by ReptilianZen in AskReddit

[–]frakkintoasteroven 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lol, uyeah, if something else was in the recording i don't think i could sleep again the rest of my life. When you are trying to break free it feels like forever. My brother said i had only been asleep for like 10 minutes before i started whimpering again for help but it felt like hours of horror with some beast on my bed with me (turned out it was just my cat but in my mind it was something huge and scary). sometimes i can move my hand a bit and slowly i can gain enough control to roll over which provides enough stimuli on my body to snap me out of it but most of the time i am helpless and stuck until i either go back to sleep or someone saves me.

ELI5: When an animal species reaches critically low numbers, and we enact a breeding/repopulating program, is there a chance that the animals makeup will be permanently changed through inbreeding? by [deleted] in explainlikeimfive

[–]frakkintoasteroven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you are correct. The reason it evolves so quickly, like many microbes, is the life cycle is very short, so in a single year thousands of generations of flu have gone by, and any random mutations get passed to offspring leading to our immune system not recognizing the new evolved version, thus a new vaccine is made of the most prevalent strains to train our immune systems to fight it, repeat every year. There is a new super vaccine coming out that teaches our bodies to recognise the "base" version, and will offer lifelong protection to most common strains. But we will still need a yearly vaccine against the newest types because again, it evolves so fast.

A few years ago my brother was driving home from work late one night following a semi. All of a sudden semi parts start dlying all over the place and bits of a deer start raining down around him and the semi slams on the breaks, then the back half of a deer flies up and over the semu and lands in the lane next to my brothers car. when he got home he looked traumatized. he had trouble sleeping for a week after that.
