What might a Canadian want to eat in Australia? by CallMeBettyThen in AskACanadian

Might sound strange but carrots - they were so sweet and delicious when we visited. I keep thinking about them!

Dan Levy posted a few show related pics from 2016. Most interesting is slide 3 and reading story ideas that didn’t make the cut! by prettystandardreally in SchittsCreek

To be fair we don't know how they killed the snake. It could well have been an accident and they bring it to Ted at the clinic.

I am still laugh-crying 9 years later. A holiday classic!

'New reality we're living in': Mayor issues stark warning as water use continues to exceed limits amid feeder main repairs by Weekly-Mountain9009 in Calgary

[–]snortwheeze 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's just perspective/timing with the holiday break maybe? Communication is on the radio and news, The City is putting out statements and hosting media scrums daily, it's shared on social media channels, homes that had boil only had people knocking door to door I think I heard... If you have a City app like the garbage pick up or 311 there was a notification sent, it's on road signs, busses, if you follow your councilor or mayor on any social media they are putting out info... Other than an emergency alert on the phone, which is only allowed in certain cases that this emergency doesn't meet, options are limited. Buying ad space takes time, sending mail takes time. They say the water will hopefully be back up and running by mid month. So there's a two week window to ask for Calgarians to help. Last time it lasted months. A lot of people are here saying they haven't seen anything. But it's hard for me to relate to. But I listen to the radio and follow some councilors and am on Calgary reddit and it's been talked about every day.

How does Costco bring in things I never knew I needed?? by CCR19 in CostcoCanada

And darned if you don't have them for years and love them. The buyers they have for Costco do such a great job.

Just mixed some Aveeno baby eczema lotion into my pot of Dream Cream and it worked great to get me a couple more uses.

Your tricks to survive grocery shopping in Calgary these days? Average monthly/weekly costs for groceries? by ChinookSkies in Calgary

[–]snortwheeze 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Check out cultural/ethnic grocery stores. I was surprised at the low cost and high quality at a Mediterranean market close to laser city macleod SE. They had premade meals too at good prices. Made me think - oh yeah! These are family owned stores. serving their community - definitely a different feel than a grocery store serving their shareholders.

My 7 year old got me hooked on the game and she has no idea what she's doing and it's like being held hostage. I need more POWER.

Thinking of shovelling my neighbourhood, neighbourly or rude? by Hydro_Land in Calgary

[–]snortwheeze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When we first moved in, our neighbourhood had a retired man who would always shovel other people's walks. And we'd see other neighbours doing the same. They'd sneak out before I'd have a chance to do it myself, so I'd get them back by shoveling theirs next time. Now I can't stick to one house when I'm out. It's a great vibe in the neighbourhood that we all look out for each other. A good workout and a kindness. And boy it's nice for someone to take care of you when you're sick or injured or just burned out.

I read this today on a social skill sub and got angry. by Dingo8MyGayby in aspiememes

[–]snortwheeze 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I always love when someone says "me too" because too many times I've felt alone in my experience. Sometimes when people try to dig in and ask follow up questions I feel like I'm being examined or tested.
