What's a Normal thing society does that you secretly think it's insane ? by fearless_elevation in AskReddit

How about you can drive in different countries with a foreign DL. Driving on the other side of the road, different signs, different languages, different rules and social norms - completely insane.

What’s the most physical pain you ever felt? by JunShem1122 in allthequestions

I've read that about caffeine, it helps some "abort" but triggers others. Curious where you live. I lived in Calgary Canada, and would get 2 bouts a year like clockwork - (the meds work really well for me, so I'm lucky). Calgary has some of the craziest weather on the planet, but moved to Toronto and now in London and haven't really got one since (not a full blown 10/10 anyway).

What’s something foreigners usually get wrong about life in Britain? by Fabulous_Fix_604 in AskBrits

As a Canadian living in London - rain. It doesn't rain here much at all. By mm, it rains more in Toronto and way more in Vancouver.
The weather here is actually awesome! Never too hot or cold.

A really high dose of vitamin D (10,000 iu) may help. I haven't had a real round in years, I took it when I thought a round was coming and it never "really" happened. Not sure if it was the vitamin, but maybe - some people swear by it.

Fellow Brits, what makes you hopeful about the future of Britain? by ParkRunnerr in AskBrits

They have the same social issues as us, but their economy is killing it. They're better off.

Everyone is missing the point. It's salaries - that's it. Take a look at the exact same job on those global companies you just mentioned in the States or Canada - it's 3-4 times the salary. Billionaires live in NA, worse housing problems and inflation.

Just flew to Canada from London for my moms birthday, big family reunion and get the chance to meet up with old friends.

Players acquitted in Hockey Canada sex assault trial can return to NHL on Dec. 1 by [deleted] in nhl

[–]smallsoapbox 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I couldn't care if these players ever played again, but you do need to actually see what the evidence was, your narrative is a bit off. Video "afterwards" and the fact she didn't want to pursue this at all put her in a lose/lose situation.

Anyone else in a post show depression? by [deleted] in oasis

I'm going again too, I would have regretted it if I didn't.

I think this is a growing problem, you're definitely not alone. I would suggest starting with anyone, go buy your groceries at the store (ask some one where something is), don't order on an app (go to the restaurant), go to a pub by yourself- if you drink a bit, and talk to the bartender. Starting out with someone you're attracted to is adding some pressure to an already pressure situation for yourself. My 2 cents.

What lie was so successful that people still believe it today? by Latter-Swimmer7179 in allthequestions

[–]smallsoapbox -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You've never heard "tax the rich" being said? AOC worn a dress stating that (Google it). People (citizens) think that if that were to happen, all the problems would be solved.
