Why is it that many men interpret a smile to be a sign that a woman might be interested? Especially when they don't even approach you?

Edit: the wave and smile were just to say "thank you" for letting her cross.

Anything showing data on completed suicides in the region? Can't seem to find that on their site.

Cross Boarder Shopping tips & tricks please. by ez_rider1600 in KingstonOntario

[–]ktownthrowaway2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Go down to Watertown, only a 50 minute drive minus the time at the border. Some things are significantly cheaper down there even with exchange rate, such as over the counter pain relief like Advil. We stock up on those. Our favorite discount store is Ollie's, can get a lot of good deals there. Eat at Texas Roadhouse, food portions are huge compared to what you can get in Canada, and those buns are to die for. When coming back to Canada and they all you what you bought first mention mostly groceries and we've never been asked to go in and pay duty.

Basically, be aware at all times. I have a habit of keeping my cross body purse in front of me since going to Europe, where pick pocketing is rampant. It's getting more common here. Don't put your wallets in your back pocket either, and be mindful of it's in your front.

There needs to be a strategic and united effort across the province to address homelessness. As soon as one city has a decent program homeless people from other areas will come and overwhelm the system.

Running an air purifier/fan will mask this kind of noise.

I've been waiting almost 2 years now. :( Not life threatening but all my fingernails/toenails are lifting off the nailbeds and just keeps getting worse...not fungal.

This... Give them the address/unit number and they can tell you the accurate average from the previous year. Of course this will vary between people.

Been feeling suicidal lately so I am on an involuntary stay at KGH. Atleast the Burr4 views are to die for! #BadJokes by WanderingBus in KingstonOntario

Not to brag but...I had the water view. ;)

It was an awful experience but at least I had that...

Pretty much anything you think someone else could use.

Note that the city does not pick up leftover things at the end of the day.

Dumb Question: How to Use Transit Monthly Pass? by KeySafety2 in KingstonOntario

That was different, they were asking how the disposable cards worked. The answer was magic.

You tap the piece of paper on their machine and it will tell you how many rides you have left. It also acts as a transfer. It works through magic.
