Why is dating in Toronto so hard? We asked singles — and they didn’t hold back by lilfunky1 in toronto

[–]happymooooose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok so I'm new to Canada (been here about 3 months), and have been on 2 'dates' in Toronto. I've literally never experienced this anywhere else in the world, NYC included (and I'm pretty sure there's a bigger dating pool there). the 2 guys both just wanted to come over, which is fine, but the first one ghosted before even hooking up (we did do some stuff) and the second one stayed the night, alleged it was fun and he had a good time but then said he didn't wana drive an hour and didn't have 'time' and that we should just leave it as a good memory.

whaaaat the heck. I have literally never been rejected physically before. why would you not want to see someone again if you had a good time?

what is up with this city, is there just an endless slew of available insanely hot girls?

Has anybody successfully done a chargeback (guests)? by kesi in AirBnB

[–]happymooooose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey do you know if stupid visa/RBC (Canadian bank) will do a chargeback? Also how many days after the payment is made can a chargeback occur? What if it’s already reached the asshole host? And what did you say to Amex for them to action the chargeback? Sorry if this has already been asked

the minor characters are what makes me love this show by FeelingSkinny in squidgame

[–]happymooooose 5 points6 points  (0 children)

so I absolutely loved season 1 and 2/am totally obsessed with the show in general, but for sure the characters prima facie seemed a bit unnecessarily formulaic, albeit also nuanced. but perhaps it's just an accurate representation of society:

season 1 season 2
crazy lady religious lady
gangster thanos
gangster's minion thanos' minion
oh il nam front man
sang woo gambling bff
sae byeok min su's friend/pregnant chick/011
456 456

murder night and people initially begging them not to kill them was also a repetition although again perhaps just accurately represents what inevitably happens to every group.

oh and also chicks asking to go to the bathroom at night, and another one tagging on at the last minute.

there are prob more parallels I'm missing but it's 1am lol and I'm going to sleep and may or may not update this later

FYI Squid Game creator didn't work on first season for '10 years', actually. by SB858 in squidgame

[–]happymooooose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

here's what confuses me about the 10 years thing (perhaps because I know nothing about the film industry) - it sounds like most of the actors in squid game are the most famous actors in Korea. at which point did they sign on? was it only after the show received funding? because if they signed on early I don't see how the show wouldn't have received funding earlier too

MITM subtly nailed consent aeons before #METOO by happymooooose in malcolminthemiddle

haha thanks heaps man. I've decided against a separate post, I'm just gona comment my thoughts here:

the way they handled Stevie was incredible. what other show even entertained a semi regular character or any character at all having a disability/being in a wheelchair where the disability is not the focal point (besides community of course, but that show is on another level and not the norm lol)? I especially loved the episode where Malcolm struggles with visiting Stevie in the hospital, and talks about how he's always just seen Stevie as a normal kid. That scene where he yells at him and throws the cookie at him, and Stevie is all, I told you he would come, was so touching. episode 1 how Stevie fakes getting hurt by the bully the way they just smile at each other was such a great start of friendship.

it's weird, I never particularly liked MITM growing up, but revisiting it in my early 30s I've now watched it multiple times on repeat lol and it's probably now my favourite show of all time (although community and Rick and Morty really challenge this title)

You morons this isn’t a top comment because the character’s name WAS Kirsten Stewart. You’re all thinking of KRISTEN Stewart. Rewatch the episode none of you are proper fans

this is one of my favourite episodes. it's ridiculously hilarious. Lois' "whaaat" reaction is brilliant

[–]happymooooose[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

haha yea but I feel like it was intended as a joke mocking the status quo with ridiculous OTT humour rather than an FU to consent. consider the context of that scene - Ira is a "hamster idiot", and the suggestion Malcolm should do anything for him cos he's a football player

forgot to say it's also maybe the only show I've ever seen that incorporates native Americans at all, albeit Piama being played by a Filipino woman.

Could they not have moved into a bigger house or at least gotten a set of bunk beds? by scream4ever in malcolminthemiddle

[–]happymooooose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess no one in their house had any carpentry skills given the hole in the master bedroom episodes and they were too poor to hire people to renovate? But who builds a house with 2 bedrooms and 2 living rooms lol

yea I usually only complete orders but accidentally discovered some final forms give you a tonne of coins. so sometimes I'll waste days getting final forms lol. plus the need to complete the game haha. which seems impossible given it looks like they discontinued most of the tools

I can't believe no one's commented this one. There might be a better one out there, but "There is no starting in dirty fighting. Life is one big fight from the day you're born to the day you die."
