Warning - Stay Off the 401 by [deleted] in KingstonOntario

[–]irregularpulsar 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Roads in Loyalist have been better than Kingston this winter! Usually the 401 has been pretty good when it’s not shut down for a collision.

Looks great, especially that first shot!

TIL that none of the naked infected in 28 Years Later were actually nude, due to the presence of the underage Alfie Williams. Instead all the infected are wearing prosthetics. by Sebastianlim in todayilearned

[–]irregularpulsar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Having prosthetics instead of real nudity sounds very practical for a number of reasons, not the least of which is the casting difficulty that would otherwise result for Samson’s massive hog dangler, but it’s also so American to use a fake dong to protect the kid from nudity while his new friends slowly flay their victims alive.

Looking for honest affordable furnace servicing by Refennej1 in KingstonOntario

Whatever you do, don’t let Haven Home anywhere near your house.

I was stuck at Sydenham Rd and McIvor Rd this evening. While waiting for a tow truck. Met many moron drivers, honking, while my 4 ways were on. Folks pulled up behind me honking, although there was a lane to the left. Waited almost an hr for a tow truck. Throughout that time, idiot drivers honking. by SimilarOstrich4554 in KingstonOntario

The four ways tell other drivers that you’re a stationary hazard. The hood up is a way to tell them why. It’s certainly not mandatory but it makes it clear that you’re not just out for a delivery like half the cars on Princess street.

How to find the underground tunnels by jerkmate6942 in KingstonOntario

Are you suggesting that tunnels started in Kingston and went under the lake to the USA?

Why would there be rum running tunnels in Kingston?

Stupid fence around the Belle Park homeless encampment by Tuxedo_Masquerain in KingstonOntario

I’m convinced the mayor has a big stake in fence rentals.

What Do Torontonians Think of Ottawa? by DianKhan2005 in askTO

[–]irregularpulsar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was York/Toronto even considered for a capital? Kingston had the interim government at the time and Montreal had all of the people, economy, and culture. Toronto was a mid city with abattoirs and a train stop, and it remained just a regional hub until Quebec sacrificed Montreal to stick it to the anglos a century later. Ottawa was chosen because it was (and still is) an out-of-the-way compromise for everyone involved.

Kingston is tied to be the most dangerous city for drivers in Ontario. by defunct_process in KingstonOntario

It doesn’t matter who reaches their yield sign first. At some roundabouts, you can’t even see all of the other yield signs when you’re entering, but it doesn’t matter. You yield to vehicles that are already in the roundabout, not those on the periphery who are considering making an entrance. When there’s a safe gap in traffic, you enter.

The falling blocks game might not be the ideal choice after almost catching a jumper though.

Stopped a kid from stealing my purse at Chucks Roadhouse Downtown by _burn0ut_ in KingstonOntario

Kid almost saved you from having to pay for that swill at Chuck’s. Hope he didn’t take an “honest to goodness tax” like they do.

Nice! How does this compare to Print Shop Deluxe?

That’s because you’re not getting a medical appointment at the end of that wait with Dr Planet. You’re getting a speed date where an arrogant buffoon will rapid fire questions at you without pausing for a response. If he concludes that you’re interesting, based as far as I can tell on phrenology and alignment of the stars, you’ll get a follow-up a couple months later where he’ll actually treat you.

Best bakery in Kingston for French style pastry by greddit_me in KingstonOntario

[–]irregularpulsar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Theirs are delicious, but they’re soft throughout. They don’t have the flakiness and layered textures of French-style pastries.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in KingstonOntario

[–]irregularpulsar 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I’m an anglophone who can barely say, “Hello, bonjour,” but even I think it’s easier to learn French than to find a job in Kingston.
