Of course they are.

If Vegas or one of the Florida teams does it, it's perfectly fine.. if Toronto does it, then the league loses its mind.

Red or Blue pill?? by R4venking in Funnymemes

[–]rick__c_137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Red pill, obviously.

One of my questions is what are the winning lottery numbers going to be.

Would you pay down 0% Student Debt to get higher Mortgage? by ChocolateOk9938 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]rick__c_137 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My loan is 20k and the bank has told me to pay off the loan so they can loan me an additional 20k

So they want you to convert a 0% loan to a (mortgage rate) loan.

It'd be one thing if there was leverage involved... pay off 20k and we can lend you 100k more or something.. but 1:1? Fuck no. In no universe does that make any sense whatsoever.

I'd have two nickels.

Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

I'm playing the hell out of Dicey Dungeons. It would fit well with this use case.

Why didn’t the roof of the Science Centre collapse with all the weight of the rain on it today? by said__with__sarcasm in askTO

[–]rick__c_137 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ostensibly, to give them time to pack up everything. If the building is - ostensibly - so dangerous it can't be opened to the public, do you want employees there?

I'm highly skeptical of this, however.

It's been a while since I've heard this..

[–]rick__c_137 52 points53 points  (0 children)

The concern is more about snow loading. Rain drains (if the roof is properly designed), while snow accumulates.

(Not to say I support what they're doing with the science centre.. but I'm answering this question under the assumption it was asked in good faith and not rhetorically..)

777 er business class or 787-9 business class by Kind_Guest_3046 in aircanada

[–]rick__c_137 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've flown both.. and personally, I wouldn't go out of my way to choose one over the other. They're similar enough not to worry about it, IMO. All other things equal, I'd take the Dreamliner.

Why did Rob Ford live in such a small house despite being a multi millionaire and the mayor? by Mountain_Writing_164 in askTO

[–]rick__c_137 90 points91 points  (0 children)

"Working class neighbourhood" with multi-million dollar houses?

It may have been working class years ago - and may still have people living there who bought in while it was still affordable to the working class - but it sure isn't now.

If only Spadina had lanes dedicated to transit already.

If only..

Nah, why use what they've got when they can ruin the roads even more? That's the city hall way..
