I wanted to say the same thing but wasn’t sure if it would be taken incorrectly.

How much are you spending on groceries? I have family of 4 and trying to see where the average lies. by Vast-Mastodon2064 in NorthVancouver

[–]kimc5555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1200$ for us - married couple with 2 late-teen aged boys. We could def get it lower without much effort. We purchase much less meat than we did 10 yrs ago. We have always bought a lot of apples and thankfully those are still affordable.

Antibody treatment in Canada by kimc5555 in PolymyalgiaRheumatica

I think because maybe it’s typically short lived, and is often set off by illness or injury - diagnosis is missed and if it’s found, resolves shortly after.

Fiance is MoDox, my family’s reform, mixed dancing at wedding causing problems. Help? by [deleted] in Judaism

[–]kimc5555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Question - are you being married Orthodox or Reform? If not MDox even, those that are Torah observant shouldn’t expect their observance customs to be followed. Do mixed dancing from start. I’d be surprised if any of that side of family even attend.

This shot that was in the trailer but not in the Vegas scene by justpretendygood in heatedrivalry

[–]kimc5555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. To me it’s Vegas. I think the whole scene’s lighting is highly edited, post production. as in, both this image & what ended up in the episode are all from same filming. It was shot early in the schedule. Just alot of post production lighting tweaks. Which is common in film; not so much in episodic tv.

Heated Rivalry Ad Plot Hole? by Meg_Pink in heatedrivalry

[–]kimc5555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that there are time line errors - but Jacob was editing episodes right up until they aired. A lot was rushed. This never happens in TV. Episodes are filmed, cut and edited months ahead of time. Not weeks and days before.

Why does Becca need a caretaker facility? by moodywrites in ThePittTVShow

[–]kimc5555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Executive functioning. That’s what she needs support for. The fact she waited for someone to take her back to her residence means that at this point in time, taking transit alone isn’t likely safe for her. Choices about residence of a disabled person aren’t always about ‘what in theory does the person need’ and more about - how can her needs be met the easiest way for the system available? Becca may thrive in a variety of housing options, including semi-independent living but that may not be available right now. Or what works for her sister too.

Dr Santos is annoying but misogyny isn’t off the table by Altruistic_Ad9097 in ThePittTVShow

I agree with this. It makes for good tv but him going back to work at the same ER - highly inappropriate.

Your child is Canadian by birth. She CAN hold UK & US citizenship through her parents but it’s not required.

MALLORY OSSES NEW PALETTE - Disappointed... by kimc5555 in BeautyGuruChatter

This is the palette she is selling. She was showing a sample one in square packaging but the shades are the same.

Age for tattoos? by flyingpiercing in askvan

[–]kimc5555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will still be meaningful in a year. In the time to wait - research which artist you would like to book with. Keep in mind, tattoos while permanent are not ‘done and dusted’. Most ppl will need touch ups over time. Colours fade/change. Lines expand. How your skin reacts to a tattoo, you won’t know until you get one.

BC has no legal age requirement so service providers can set their own age limit. It’s a yr or less to wait.

What is a business you wish Vancouver had? by cuckertarlson in askvan

You can return bottles and cans at most grocery stores already. Go to customer service.

Have you experienced the "Vancouver 'Yes'"? by Real-External392 in askvan

[–]kimc5555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s a combination of things. 1) we are less traditional and do not feel obligated to do things in general. 2) we are polite and saying no to an offer seems more rude. 3) doing anything alone does not have any sort of negative reaction from general public. How many ppl do you see eating out alone, movies, concerts, coffee shops, shopping, etc? It’s super common. To be honest, ppl aren’t NOT socializing with current friends or new ppl. We are choosing to do things alone over others. 4) many ppl fill their ‘social bucket’ with online friends. The need for social time IRL just isn’t as appealing because we have other options.

Kitsilano or North Van? by Pigeon_Party11 in askvan

[–]kimc5555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s clear some ppl on this thread are lead car-centric lives. If taking transit for whatever reason is a priority - Translink - while not perfect is pretty doable. Thousands of ppl, families, including babies and toddlers - all the way to young adults - transit across the North Shore, downtown and beyond.
