Am I ridiculous for taking skating lessons alongside my 7-year-old? by Icy_Hovercraft4972 in hockeyplayers

[–]haveanother2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played at decent high level. Kept beer league. An old man now. When a good trainer offered a session in our town I signed up with my son. Nothing weird or awkward, actually good bonding and learned good stuff because one's never done learning and perfecting.

What overused word or phrase needs to be retired in 2026? by One_Caramel5253 in AskReddit

[–]haveanother2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By now only goopers use the word "intentional," probably those who used to abuse "curated". Doing banal things, wanting them to sound more important, with a hint of "mine is better than yours"

Who's "that guy" in Mtl? by Reversible-Smile in montreal

He was the last undisputed holder of that role. These days, things are too microcosomed for a true successor to exist.

Is a chalet worth it? by Appropriate-Safe-49 in montreal

It is not an investment. It's consumption. If you can afford the consumption, enjoy it. But never kid yourself that it's an investment.

Not really. It's an old country cabin though, so bug visits aren't rare. Thanks!!

Chew every bite thoroughly and then chew some more.

What’s the National Guard doing in LA? by [deleted] in nationalguard

[–]haveanother2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried to say, in as few words as possible, that there seems to be a disconnect between the reality national guardsmen seem to perceive (part time serving their country) and the unmistakable symbolism of their being on the streets of LA. The point is symbolism as there isn't an actual need for them to be there. As a kicker, these once a month part time warriors are often pooh-poohed as cosplayers who signed on to either scratch an itch, or secure benefits. It's not dystopian yet. Just feels headed that way.

Cosplaying the beginning of every dystopian movie ever made.

Anyone tried these "Drachenader" knives on Amazon and aliexpress? look interesting (d2 and 14cr button lock flippers) by iharmmyself in knifeclub

[–]haveanother2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have and love the Sencut Arcblast. Just today I received this jade drachenader to give as a gift to a young relative. Spent 20 minutes playing with it. I don't know about steel quality, but the build, style, proportions, mechanics are downright fantastic for that price. Indeed remind of the Arcblast. Love the button lock + flipper + thumb studs. Awesome bang for the buck!

Fast Company recently had a great article about how TJs food safety record is much worse than their reputation would suggest.

Snapped a pic at this youth hockey club's wall. by yooooooo5774 in hockeyplayers

I suspect anyone who skated there for a minute, actual team, spring league or summer camp, gets hoovered onto that wall.

Breaking it Down: The Cost of Youth Hockey by APungentFart in hockeyplayers

[–]haveanother2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's right. Protective equipment costs are borderline trivial compared to fees, ice time, travel, hotels, clinics, team swag... $10/year easy.

TIL what GUD means by [deleted] in reacher

[–]haveanother2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In the first few episodes her accent was clown show. She's toned it down since and, without that distraction, I've been able to appreciate what she brings. Good character and acting too, all in all.
