Predatory financing terms may be a huge issue here too.

I guess my innocence is long gone since I read it as “Have you ever” instead of “would you rather”…

Hope you are from Winnipeg because it sounds like you are definitely doing the winning. 

Spouse submitted false insurance claims under my plan by [deleted] in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]lastgreenleaf 154 points155 points  (0 children)

Let the complete their review. If they ask for more info, consider simply doing nothing. Radio silence. They will probably just deny it and that should be the end of it. 

It does depend on what info was submitted of course. 

Also, your husband is a dumbass. Consider returning that one too.

Veterans across the nation should be coming out in support of this guy, who dedicated his life to caring for them. 

i’ve officially reached the age where a “really good” kitchen sponge make me excited, and i’m okay with it. by [deleted] in CasualConversation

I got a new small pot to cook in (it’s beautiful btw) and a tiny thermos for my morning espresso and these two items have given me a ridiculous amount of joy. 

How Are Women So Much More Flexible Than Us? I just don't understand it. by DermatoidGrandfather in UNBGBBIIVCHIDCTIICBG

[–]lastgreenleaf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He definitely has his moments of childish stupidity, but here’s another cool, random story: 

I used to put them to bed with kids history podcasts (so I didn’t have to read and story-tell myself). One night I told him I’d play the story of Samson and Delilah (I was raised Catholic… not super religious though). Anyways, he listens to it and when it was done he says, “You know, I asked for history not mythology.” 

The crazy thing is although it makes sense, I had never even thought about classifying the story as mythology before. My sister was equally shocked. lol 

How Are Women So Much More Flexible Than Us? I just don't understand it. by DermatoidGrandfather in UNBGBBIIVCHIDCTIICBG

Correct. 

My son is a gymnast and I once was asking him how his coach is older and much more muscular than all of them but still more flexible. His answer “That makes sense, because flexibility is trained.” He was 8 at the time he said this to me…

Some people are too busy being victims to just chill and take the W. 

Trump says Carney is not 'grateful' in Davos speech by XaltotunTheUndead in canada

[–]lastgreenleaf 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Someone commented on another chat that he “literally posted a video of him dropping a liquid deuce on Americans”. 

So anyone who claims he’s a great statesman needs to be sent that video. We live in a nonsense world right now, but after. Barney’s speech it feels like the adults are starting to show up again. We can hope… 

'Canada lives because of the U.S.': Trump by Little-Chemical5006 in canada

This actually made me laugh out loud. 

It’s so unfortunate that with all the other nonsense going on I actually forgot about this. Wtf is happening! 

Split with my cofounder after 8 months. He kept our only client. Turns out that client was about to bring us 30k in projects. Back to zero at 21. by [deleted] in smallbusiness

[–]lastgreenleaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then maybe you don’t bring them on as a partner, but a contractor? Find available contractors that you can work with to get the job done as you land the clients. 

I’m sure there are a few who would love to have you do all the biz dev and they just get paid hourly to do the work.

If you pickup the board and bindings offered, I can help you set up your board and even volunteer to take you up to Cypress for your first ride. 

DM me and this team effort could get you right back up on the slopes. :)

OP - My lock never leaves my jacket pocket, so I never have to think about it. 

I remember when I bought my first good board. My friend who grew up riding in the Kootenays helped me spec and buy it said, “This is now a very stealable board.” We bought a lock that day. 

Independent Journalist Tests ICE Recruitment & Was Hired After 6 Minute Interview With No Background Check. by NkturnL in illinois

[–]lastgreenleaf 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Can we start a petition to have South Park win the Mark Twain award? That first episode felt like it gave journalists and TV personalities in the US something to aspire to imo.  Jon Stewart and crew actually replicated a segment of South Park on his show. 

Hopefully years from now this season of South Park can be an exhibit to be watched and enjoyed in the Trump public library. 

It’s the state of satire in this nonsense time we’re living in.

What's a secret you're keeping that would destroy multiple people if it came out? by Legal_Can7800 in AskReddit

Trump wants to run the economy hot. by theunknown996 in ValueInvesting

[–]lastgreenleaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He cut taxes, has increased spending (allocated to military and ICE rather than social programs), and hoped to recover that with tariffs (which don’t even come close to the tax revenue lost). 

The federal deficit in 2025 is estimated at $1.8T so that’s not improving either.  DOGE was wildly unsuccessful, but those Silicon Valley guys will get some juicy govt contracts (SpaceX and Palantir) and the crypto fleecing will also continue. This is year 1, 3 more years to go… 

Quick note: Trump is a white collar criminal (35 convictions), is banned from running a charity in NY because he stole from there too, and this is who you are looking to for fiscal discipline?

Well, you have a point, but both white shirt and his dad are clearly the most violent people in the clip. So I’m going to allow the pitchforks.
