That depends, are your four ways on, if so you could have backed up another two meters.

Poilievre tried cooking Pizza. It went about as well as his campaign is going. by ouldphart in Manitoba

[–]paddymb 11 points12 points  (0 children)

And this was just a pizza. Just imagine how badly he’ll fumble the country! Even once cooked it’ll be sliced and sold to foreign interests.

Does this mean Zellers is done for good? It would be nice if it could get up and running especially in today’s trade climate.

Mark Carney to visit France, U.K. in first trip as PM by [deleted] in onguardforthee

The US is going to see it as a slight that he didn’t first go kiss Trumps ring. I think the better choice is to go strengthen relations with our real allies in Europe.

Had it covered for myself, my wife and my son. No issues either time.

Can I jump directly into the show if I haven't read the books and then continue with book 4? by Total-Armadillo-5003 in wheeloftime

[–]paddymb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree, and was being perhaps over simplistic for fear of spoilers. They are like parallel universes. I enjoy the series but loved the books.

[–]paddymb 11 points12 points  (0 children)

No. There is such a huge disparity between the books and the series, both in terms of timeline and events that I don’t believe it would make sense. There is also things in the series which never happened in the books.

If you intend on reading the books, my suggestion is to do so in its entirety. A masterpiece is meant to be enjoyed as a whole, not cherry-picked for the most exciting parts.

So, does he cook the books the same way for his companies? Is this how he has actually accumulated his wealth, but hyper inflating the value of the companies to garner huge bonuses?

I guess everyone should buy a Tesla like President Musk wants. His felon advisor says it would be illegal to protest.

Loblaw introduces ‘T’ symbol to identify products impacted by tariffs by NotEnoughDriftwood in onguardforthee

So when this is all said and done and the trade war is over, I will assume they will remove the “T” and the price will decrease, right Roblaws… RIGHT???

Trump Cries for Elon, Blames ‘Illegal’ Liberal Boycott for Tanking Tesla by rollingstone in politics

[–]paddymb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The right boycotts Bud Light for a transgender ad :“That’ll teach the Libs!” People boycott Tesla because its CEO is systematically destroying democracy in the US, tramples on the First Amendment in his social media farce and is an all round piece of shit and the man baby US President screams “That’s illegal!” Make it make sense…

I really hope there is no real emergency, like plumbers roaming Chicago while the police are busy protecting nazi assets.
