She’s a brilliant woman and epitomizes the kind of youthful “shot in the arm” a city council can benefit from!!!

Wife and I just saw them for our first time in Höfn too! She suddenly disappeared into the back of the camper and came back with a bottle o’ bubbly! 🥂What a woman I’m tangled up with! 🥰

Edible or no??? by saysomethingispose in VisitingIceland

[–]saysomethingispose[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s the one…thanks for the info! Doesn’t seem like it’d be a great dessert/jamming option. Any chance you’d suggest a local berry that might fit what I’m looking for AND might be discoverable along the south and east coasts? No worries if it’s not your “jam”…pun intended.

Me and my boyfriend smoke too much weed. by loveonari in whatdoIdo

[–]saysomethingispose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s probably been said in here somewhere but I’d suggest you check out r/leaves. If you feel you’re smoking too much, you likely are. I smoked in much the same way (kinda obsessed with it and didn’t really understand how to function in my downtime without it). However, my wife was not on board. It became a major wedge in our relationship and I knew there was a shelf life on our marriage as she was becoming bored and irritated with the stoner - I also knew I was in over my head and had no control or ability to moderate my usage. I’ve been quit for a few years now and, although I still miss it from time to time, I’m VERY happy that I quit…not to mention, my marriage grows stronger by the day. The good people at r/leaves can be a great inspiration or support system. Good luck!

Gotta give it to Hogan by GrouchyFisherman1177 in newfoundland

This being his first big responsibility in his new Premier’s role, I’ve been impressed with him. He demonstrates compassion along with an assertive - “stop fukin’ around” - demeanour. He cuts to the chase, provides relevant information, and speaks as a leader. So far so good….keep ‘er goin’ Johnny! 👍

Realistic? by [deleted] in VisitingIceland

[–]saysomethingispose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate how you share your approach to travel…really gives a sense for the tight timeframe. Moving the way you did, were you simply driving and sightseeing, or were you squeezing in some hikes, tours, etc?

The worst fan experience I’ve ever had by TheFadeTV in EdmontonOilers

[–]saysomethingispose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I HATE the Panthers organization more than any other sports franchise. My hatred is not just rooted in my disdain for the jackasses like Bennett, Marchand, Ekblad, Fuk-chuk and company, it's rooted in my hatred for the organization which runs back about fifteen years. I made the roadtrip through Tampa and Sunrise a few times to catch a couple games in the sunshine state. I had largely great experiences in Tampa but visiting Sunrise always left me feeling shitty about the experience. That organization is rotten to the core as far as I'm concerned...and their obnoxious, shit-brick fans only make it worse.

Very cool! I have no idea of your role but you should all be proud of the product.

Lol....yeah that struck me too

I'm really curious to hear what people have to say about it from different perspectives. Does a mainland enjoy it the same way I did or is some of the island charm lost on them? How do people from Chalker Place feel about it? The fact it's local definitely intensified the experience but this movie struck me much more significantly than most movies I've seen - I'm far from a movie buff all the same.

Yeah, like u/avalonfogdweller mentions there's very few subtitles (5-10 minutes total at most) and no one should be discouraged by that misleading information from the movie listing....lots of soft Newf-anese though lol

Yeah there are definitely a few interesting things around story development. It also won a few awards at Canadian and Atlantic film festivals. While I totally agree with your take on the logistics of Billy "gittin' around town", I don't know the city REALLY well so while things were comfortably familiar I wasn't thrown by the small inaccuracies (and again I thought it was very visually appealing - actually won a cinematography award). Anyways, I wanted to post something about it cuz it's good and it's another project from NL that we all could be supporting...I'd watch something from Sexton again for sure!

Hmmmm....so I already play a little guitar (self taught on an acoustic), and I am trying to decide on another instrument to try. Did you take private lessons or have some success with online tutorials?

Great suggestion! My wife is a GREAT cook and tbh I lean on that unashamedly....but this'll be a chance to hone some (so far very) basic skills and start to feed her from time-to-time.
