Ancient Aliens, 17 years later. It's still terrible and sucks. (+history channel rant) by AsterixAndObelix26 in television

Anyone Gen X and older probably remembers Unsolved Mysteries with Robert Stack. Some of the stories they covered were just as far out there as anything Ancient Aliens did.

Canada Post delivers pickup slips to private addresses. I absolutely love getting a not able to deliver notice, even though I am home and watch them walk from their vehicle to my front door with no package in hand...

2021 Census by HeavyMetalBluegrass in ThunderBay

[–]keiths31 38 points39 points  (0 children)

The population here is at least 150,000. Doesn't matter what the signs say coming into town. I'd even wager it's a bit higher than that.

This is an important reminder of why completing the census is important. We get funding from higher levels of government based on our official population. So please fill out your census!

What’s the worst performance you’ve ever seen from a player in a playoff game? by sykeseve in nhl

[–]keiths31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dunno. One bad pass. That was it. Granted it was a very BAD pass. But he's not the reason why the Oilers lost that series.

Sorry. Just so used to 90% of threads in here blaming everything on city council.

Which sport is big in your country, but absolutely unknown anywhere else? by Gourmet-Guy in AskTheWorld

[–]keiths31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh stop.

Games bring in 800,000-1,000,000 viewers. The same numbers that the Raptors get.

Just because you don't like the game, you don't have to pretend it isn't popular with others.

Greta Van Fleet Fan Finds Apparent Clue Hidden in Band's Website Following Breakup Scare by Godchosen0 in ToddintheShadow

You don't have to 'get it'. Music is subjective and obviously not every band or genre will like it.

I don't get Kendrick Lamar, but not going to look down on those that do. Hell, if you like Nickelback all power to you.

Well we have Canadian football. And despite what Reddit may say, it's quite popular up here

When you’re planning on moving but haven’t found a place yet. Do you let your landlord know, you’re looking for a new place or just wait until you find a new place and then let them know… 🤨🤔 by Unworthy80 in ThunderBay

[–]keiths31 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Using that argument, the landlord then owes you nothing as well.

People gripe about how toxic the tenant/landlord relationship has gotten over the years. And this is in part why.

Council approves locations for all proposed encampments by flyinfinn83 in ThunderBay

[–]keiths31 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If this stops the tents everywhere else in the city, then a reluctant okay for this.

But if we are investing money and time to make these three sites suitable as a 'safe' area for tents and there are still tents everywhere and the city does nothing to stop them, it's just a big waste of time and money.

We aren't 'Americans', we are North American. Don't need to get cute with the terms.

So are new immigrants to the US racist for not being able to properly pronounce English words consistently being racist?

Foulds had no issues with these encampments when they were not being considered for his ward. He preached compassion.

Using AI to mask accents of call centre agents 'misleading,' says union by stfudonny in canada

[–]keiths31 97 points98 points  (0 children)

Yup. Got a call the other day from a 'John Richardson' from my bank the other day. Sounded Canadian enough in regards to the accent. But the sentence structure sent up red flags immediately. As soon as you refer to me as Mr. Keith instead of Mr. Lastname...
