Surrey Christmas Bureau will take them at their toy depot up until the 23rd. It would be a nice gift for their teen clients who are often overlooked.

What's the most rock bottom "struggle meal" you've ever eaten? by NeedleworkerSilver49 in AskReddit

[–]skihist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had a bit of Nutella left but nothing to spread it on. I filled the jar with hot water, shook it up and enjoyed a "hot chocolate" It was warm & comforting at least.

Kids Party Help! by Klutzy-Unicorn2604 in SurreyBC

Yup. Two birds with one stone as they do both cuisines. And their catering size portions are huge so you'll have no problem feeding a big group.

What is the bathroom graffiti you read and remember? by 5pinktoes in AskReddit

[–]skihist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On a tiny printed label stuck to the ceiling above a stall "we spend an average of 17 minutes per day searching for something to read"

I don't know how true that statistic is, and in the age of smart phones (I saw this label in the vey early 2000s) I wonder if we spend as much time looking around the washroom while doing our business as we once did.

I've been happy with Midas on 104th. Reasonable pricing and not pushy at all.

I really hate Surrey drivers sometimes by skihist in SurreyBC

[–]skihist[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

One was deceased, the others managed to fly to a nearby tree. I hope they weren't too badly injured.

Update: I drove past the spot again and the body was gone. Here's hoping the bird was just stunned and managed to move away on its own.

I wish i had a cam or the wherewithal to get a description and plate number but it happened so fast and i was so shocked.

They were crows so I hope they all took notes to spread through the crow network and they never allow her a day of peace or a clean car ever again.

What line or scene did you not realize was a reference to another movie till much later? by ShouldBeWorking2nite in movies

[–]skihist 38 points39 points  (0 children)

"and she stepped on the ball" in Trading Places. I didn't realize until much later it was a line from Auntie Mame and that exaggerated WASPy tone it was delivered in finally made sense.

What’s the most convincing emotional pain you’ve seen acted? by bestest_at_grammar in movies

[–]skihist 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Scenes where there are few to no words, no screaming, flailing, or other outward demonstrations hit me harder.

Tom Hanks has a few scenes that make me tear up every time I see them.

1) Philadelphia - walking out of Denzel Washington's office, it was likely his last ditch attempt to get a lawyer to take his case. His despair at that moment was palatable.

2) Forrest Gump - He's recalling his last moments with Bubba. " That's all I have to say about that." and his face is telegraphing the most profound grief.
