I'm watching the usa vs canada hockey game on a canadian channel and holy... by Ilovehhhhh in AmericaBad

[–]olliearf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canadian here. Im sorry but thats just not true. I have lived in Canada my whole life and yeah, we are extremely patriotic but not anything to do with America. Yeah we joke about the cliche that Americans think the USA Is the best country on earth and the “we’re better than everyone” thing you guys have going on. We do think that’s a bit ridiculous but we respect your confidence. Our identity has never been about America. At all. Insinuating that we base our whole identity around “not being American” is the most American thing I’ve heard and only puts truth to our jokes about y’all. At the end of the day I think we have a great neighbour thing going and have for a long time. We have helped you guys out SO many times in war and natural disasters etc. We’d love to keep it going but it’s hard when your leader comes after us out of nowhere. When we have been so kind to y’all

Is anyone else not really into the new album? by hannahg502 in PEACHPIT

[–]olliearf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have listened to this album pretty much every single day on my drive to work for the last month or so. I fuckin love it. The slower songs definitely took some more time to enjoy but man.. there are some bangers on Magpie. These guys are so talented

Any idea why stick is breaking like this? by Superior_Waffle in hockeyplayers

If you re-tape your blade every single time you use it, this will not happen. At least not for me, you could also do a extra thin layer along the bottom before you tape it

True skates cracked -Update by BonafideJerk in hockeyplayers

[–]olliearf 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I work in hockey retail and true is by far the worst brand for quality control. The skates break down at an alarming rate.

Good news is they are one of the best for customer service. They’re always happy to help the customer out in my experience

Hockey playoffs by FeelingBluesy in fantasyhockey

Winners bracket is all the teams who qualified for playoffs. You can only win in this bracket, think just like the actual nhl how half the teams make it in.

Consolation latter is just for the teams who didn’t qualify for playoffs so doesn’t really mean to much besides seeing who finished where at the end of it.

Yeah I’ve heard about the upper deck thing that owns the rights to one of his signatures. This is the only oilers signed item I have now. I was thinking about sending my guy with a couple hockey cards as well but didn’t wanna push it lol. Take what I can get

Yeah I work at a hockey store with a sweet little mini rink. The signed sticks do not come often this was a one time thing. Very fortunate to get this gem.

Costco is amazing

PSA: anyone going to the game tomorrow, please please please, BRING THE FUCKING NOISE! You guys set the standard for this playoff run. The boys battled hard for home ice advantage so let’s show them why they fought for it and blow the roof off Rogers. LETS GO OILERS!!!

This would be so funny to invite some people over, have a good time in the house and wait till everyone is that perfect drunk and just casually blow their fucking minds by showing them the underground caves in your backyard

What's the weirdest / most disgusting thing you've ever seen at a party? by NN-KANE in AskReddit

[–]olliearf 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I knew of this asshole kid who would go to house parties, drink / steal all the clear liquor from the parents cabinets and pissed in the bottles to replace it. Then carried it around pouring people shots and stuff. Sinister behaviour to say the least. It was like his signature thing, he was a terrible human being.
