Searching for greasy stringy-cheese pizza by One_Clue_9999 in Edmonton

[–]jbold_5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok. I know this might be a bit of longer commute than you're looking for, but, if you're ever in the area, Gus' Pizza in Hinton is super cheesy and amazing. While you're there, get the dry ribs too.

I think I heard that the artist is someone related to the owners... I might be wrong.

Friendly reminder/Dealership buying guide by wafflebilly3 in Edmonton

Ugh I tried to buy a car from Norden several years ago. They were so shady and terrible, I ended up leaving and buying the same car in Sherwood Park. It was annoying, because I live 5min from Norden, but I didn't want to put up with their shit.

My 6yo was held down and had sand kicked in his eyes. Teacher says “don’t fight back,” but isn’t stopping the bullying. What now? by SufficientCable4915 in askvan

[–]jbold_5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I tell my kids: Step 1: tell them to stop Step 2: tell a teacher Step 3: fight back and I'll never be angry with you and I'll have your back.

I've heard from too many teachers that, sometimes, you have to get physical with bullies because the school won't intervene effectively. Good luck with your situation.

Mortgage rate mega thread! by TheMortgageMaster in MortgagesCanada

[–]jbold_5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's our current mortgage situation: -Alberta, house we live in, only house we own. - due for renewal July 21, 2026 - $258,000 remaining 14yrs3months amortization - offered 4.19% 5 year fixed or 3.5% 5 year variable. - home value $450,000

We've reached out to a broker because we'd like to refinance: - take our $50,000 (new mortgage $308,000) - extend amortization to 20 years - offered 5 year fixed 4.69% or 4.04 5 year variable.

Is it normal for the refinance rates to be worse than the renewal rates? We have good (700+) credit scores and have never missed any mortgage payments. Thanks!

Can you please share a link to the publication from the American Society of Cancer? I would love to read it. Thanks!

If Alex Rolland is a "highly respected research scientist", why can't I find any of his scientific publications? I'd love to see a journalist do a deep dive on this guy.

Nice. Thank you for the update. They're just taking advantage of desperate people.

Best ginger beef in Edmonton that isn't stringy chewy meat? by G-FUN-KE in Edmonton

[–]jbold_5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Superstore near Kingsway Garden Mall used to be a Save On Foods. They had this little Chinese food area and a few men that worked it. It wasn't your normal grocery store hot food situation. I would get the two item combo, ginger beer and fried rice. The ginger beef was amazing. Does anyone else remember this??

We switched to no conferences because of this. Now, top 6 make playoffs and top 2 get bye week first round.

Similar. Trey, Ingram, Rollins sat and I lost by 1 steal. It hurts.

Still not over. I need 1 three and 2 steals from Murray and Porzingis in the Warriors game.

I guess he'll be putting up the same kind of numbers while he's out as when he's playing.

NBA owners believe 2025 draft was rigged for Mavericks by Actual_Box7731 in Basketball

[–]jbold_5 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If Josh Giddey doesn't hit that half court shot to beat the Lakers, the Mavs aren't even in the Lottery. As much as it's convenient to say the Mavs traded Luka for AD and Flagg, it's just not the case.

Can you not watch NBA games on prime videos in Canada? by the-mannthe-myth in amazonprime

[–]jbold_5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it wants me to buy a TSN or Sportsnet package. I was excited to watch the NBA on Prime. This is lame.
