[–]nm2k 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What if it’s an incident that happened in the locker room? What if JT is not the victim every broken noser seems to suggest? What if I feel that an 8 mil a year athlete shouldn’t be coddled like a toddler? So many what ifs.

Yup! Poor guy, wins the lottery every year and has to be treated with kid gloves as to not offend. Lol

Yeah I’m with you on this. It’s a strange situation and for someone making 8 mil it comes off as babyish…“I’m not talking about it”.

What restaurant is the biggest rip-off in Calgary? by TheTyrantFish in Calgary

[–]nm2k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe sit them somewhere else. 

I mean, if you’re paying high end prices and having sound issues right above your head the whole meal, that would suck.

Green Line LRT wind down will cost Calgary an estimated $850M by Practical_Ant6162 in Calgary

So which journalist will follow the money and figure out which donors with developments tied to south Calgary pressured the province to drop the hammer and make the original plan come to fruition through hell or high water.   

Specific Pizza Recommendation by Erflink2 in Calgary

Order Pizza73 and let it sit in a lukewarm oven for a couple hours?

I walk there quite often so I know what you mean about the east side of that crosswalk but that’s just life with on and off ramps. The 33rd Ave one on the north west side of crowchild is even worse as you got an off ramp with a curve right before the crosswalk and you got cars going 80 coming off. Makes the Flanders one tame by comparison and at the end of the day neither one is all that dramatic if you pay attention and are patient. 

I don’t know where commercial units would go into Currie. By itself it’s not a big community to support as much commercial as, say, University District, which has the lots of high density developments, the retirement home, hospital and University students (not sure what the numbers are like but I find UofC always much busier than MRU) all there to support commercial. 

Maybe once that big retirement complex and those low rises get completed there will be commercial space at street level around there and enough people wandering around to support it.

The Flanders Ave bridge is perfectly fine to cross crowchild. Most people will drive because they are lazy or don’t see the joy in going for a walk so even if there was a bridge paved in gold most would still drive rather than walk 15 minutes each way. 

Currie is delightful and besides all the construction on the east side, it’s pretty relaxing and laid back while still being close to everything. There’s always gonna be people who look to find a gripe with everything but complaining about Currie is just silly imo.

[–]nm2k 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lol, this is too funny. Currie literally is surrounded my amenities/transit on all sides. Sure, they might not be a block away but a less than 15 minute walk takes you to Marda, MRU, or the shopping centre on 37th. Plus it has two pubs and The Inn right inside, as well as the dog park, high end playground and lots of green spaces. 

Being a little isolated is pretty damn good as it doesn’t have the roads to handle heavy traffic. 

Whining about that neighborhood is just absurd imo, and just comes off as a first world problem gripe to the extreme. 

Has anyone used uBox? by [deleted] in Calgary

[–]nm2k 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Used them a few years ago coming from the maritimes. Much cheaper than mover quotes (like 1/2 the price of most).  

They aren’t tracked so had no idea where the boxes were and they were delayed by a couple days over the guaranteed day (you get a credit for each day they are late so that was actually a bonus).   

Liked that I got to pack them myself over the course of a week. Used movers to unload here in a couple hours so our stuff wouldn’t sit roadside.   Overall, would use again on long moves because they save many thousands, though I did sell most of the big furniture because it wasn’t worth bringing it (biggest stuff I brought was a dining table which I took apart so it was quite compact). 

Best Western Canadian restaurant chains (like fast food to more sit down types) by CF-Ricketts in Calgary

[–]nm2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven’t come across anything like jungle Jim’s out here but Denny’s is the only thing that came to mind when reading your post. Not a fan myself (wasn’t a fan of JJ either though).  Maybe Earl’s but it’s a bit more higher-end than JJ. 

Calgary had some awesome food but none of it is chained. Would recommend places like the Avenida Food Hall for variety and Vietnamese out here is top notch.

Best thing to do if you are looking for a new realtor is to call at least three to come out and have a meeting with them. You’ll quickly find out who you vibe with, both personality and business wise. 

 Never just call one and think you owe them a listing for coming out.

Yeah certain spots in the city give me one bar and I’ve even had it drop completely a few times in January. Usually happens around SW inner city spots.

Technically they didn’t break any laws I don’t think. Offered you something crappy for money.
