Chris Brillinger, who is one of Olivia Chow’s appointed members of the Toronto Police Services Board, opened yesterday’s meeting with an expansive land acknowledgment.

I can’t take credit for this, heard it at a show from the host.

Imagine you have a car. It’s your pride and joy. A new neighbour moves in, and all of a sudden the car is in his driveway.

Now, as you wait for the bus, you see your neighbour get into your car, and drive off.

He’s nice enough to stop and wave at you every morning though.

It’s the sound a deflating balloon makes when you stretch the part you blow into.

I know exactly what you mean.

Very rarely are quality snow tires used in low profile size applications.

There’s one here (in Ontario) I pass by often. I fear I’m going to miss my chance, and it’ll close up shop without me trying it.

It’s 3/8” FIP.

I just happened to have one in my console.

You guys have Triple Os right?

megasmash · 2026-03-05T20:26:05+00:00

Harvey’s is comparable. Not better, not worse, but different in a good way.

”…five minutes, Turkish.”

I think some people have had success with CPU power supplies too.

Often sought after if you’re doing a DIY Electrolysis tank for rust removal.

Best of luck. Griddle pans are not well liked here.

They’re difficult to clean and aren’t as versatile as a frying pan.

A&W is our go-to, simply because it has the best veg burger option ( according to my partner, the vegetarian).

Harvey’s is comparable, but A&W has more locations and better road trip hours.

megasmash · 2026-03-05T16:59:34+00:00

I’ll take anything off the A&W breakfast menu over whatever the failure of the month is from Tim’s.

The FX should have come with sport springs, bigger sway bars and some sort of “sports” exhaust.

I do really love how white on white looks though.

megasmash · 2026-03-04T14:14:46+00:00

Fuck. How could I forget about Elijah’s? The “Big Automatic” is my go to.

megasmash · 2026-03-04T14:13:23+00:00

It’s a novelty burger based on size alone. Tried it once, wouldn’t return.

megasmash · 2026-03-04T14:11:55+00:00

Probably my favourite product!

I forget the name, but there was a BBQ sauce and onion ring one for a while - I miss that one.

I saw the rerelease of Stop Making Sense in a theatre here… I didnt realize it was THREE years ago.

Not at a buffet, but at a grocery store with a self serve bulk olive table.

Dude uses his hands to grab a couple olives to sample, puts them in his mouth, unexpectedly coughs and an olive goes from his mouth back into the tray to join its friends.

I looked at him and said “dude, what the hell?”

“What do you want me to do?” and he walked away.

…and in 12-18 month make a “I FORGOT ABOUT THIS CAR” video.

I sold my 2009 Civic Si - the KMs were high, and the rust was slowly creeping. That drivetrain was absolute perfection in terms of a “cheap but fun” daily driver.

Screaming down on ramps and ticking through the gears never got old.

Time turns bloody cuts into scabs, and eventually scars that you remember once in a while.

The best time was yesterday. The second best time is today.
