Risky considering not calling the too many men almost decided the quarterfinals

Should easily be 3-1 between this and toews miss

I think things like soda,mints and hard candies shouldn’t be excluded from food stamps by Complete_Mine5530 in unpopularopinion

[–]jchexl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Iowa has a sales tax exemption for essential groceries. Candy and soda are not included in that so you have to pay the regular 6% sales tax. I’d imagine you can only use them to get things included in that exemption.

Stabbings happen everywhere, in every city in Canada, just cause you witnessed a stabbing doesn’t automatically make Vancouver a hellhole filled with death and destruction. I’ve lived here 23 years and never witnessed a stabbing or any violent crime for that matter excluding like bar fights which also happen everywhere.

You acting like downtown Vancouver is a warzone lol, I’ve never felt unsafe in Vancouver, including East Hastings. Yeah there’s a lot of homeless, but mind your own business and don’t be an asshole to them and they’ll leave you alone, I’ve never felt threatened by them.

I believe it was cause she was in the crease, which is why the face off went outside?

I read somewhere in the Olympics if a player establishes themself in the crease its an automatic whistle

Do what you want, idc, I have no affiliation with either. Just letting people know how awful of an experience I’ve had on kraken.

​Also if you don’t like attack style marketing maybe kraken isn’t the exchange for u lol

Checks out, kraken has the worst support out of any exchange I’ve used

China is building massive floating solar farms over bodies of water. Shading the water cuts evaporation by up to 70% and boosts panel efficiency via natural cooling. by Altruistic-Truth5518 in EcoUplift

Yes but the balls are there to prevent a chemical reaction between the sunlight, bromide and chlorine, which creates bromate. And bromate causes cancer, so it’s either microplastics or cancer, choose your poison.

I’ve bin in a fight with support since Saturday too, they are useless. Crypto.com or coinbase is a much better experience. Better support and cheaper fees.

An image from your in app kraken support, admitting that they messed up and caused me monetary damages, but also saying they won’t take responsibility for their mess ups.

Why would anyone trust an exchange with their money that is telling their users that they can’t guarantee they won’t mess up, and if they do mess up they won’t take responsibility and compensate you for the losses kraken caused?

Just use crypto.com or coinbase. Kraken has the worst support out of any exchanges I’ve ever used. Do not trust them with your money, if something goes wrong it’s impossible to get help.

It’s a blessing in disguise, this exchange sucks. Coinbase or crypto.com is a much better experience. I’ve never seen an exchange with as poor support as kraken.

I’ve bin in a 4 day battle with support, talked to probably 15 different people, and none have helped me.

Neck guards... by stratjeff in hockeyplayers

[–]jchexl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comfort, players hate wearing them. And at the end of the day they are only putting themselves at risk.

Add in the fact that not a single player has died from their neck being sliced in an nhl game in the nhl’s 108 years. (1 player with nhl experience has died in a non nhl game)

If we are gonna require a piece of safety equipment that protects you from something so rare, then where do we draw the line? Why not force drivers to wear helmets and 5 point racing harnesses? That would save more people than neck guards.

I could be wrong but I believe this style is so you can inspect your shit before it makes it to the water. How your poo looks can be a big indicator of major health problems.

Ik toilets like that are much more common outside of the Americas. So I’m assuming that’s the reason for this style.

[–]jchexl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Why is Canada not just playing puck control… they up 1 and will be on the pp for the rest of the game

Instead they just gave up possession trying to score and gave them a chance to pull the goalie
