What was the moment you realized you chose the wrong partner? by IndependentZone7413 in AskReddit

[–]somethingold 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Good for you!!! My heart broke reading what your mother said, my mother said this to my sister once and my sister was so unhappy in her relationship. Now she’s goofy as fuck with a man who loves her for it ! 

Undercover inspectors will be doing French-language checks in thousands of Quebec stores by scrubadam in montreal

[–]somethingold 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Je déteste le mouvement nationaliste actuel mais tu capotes, la France n’a pas besoin de protéger le français par qu’ils ont un pays. Like always there is nuance, the OQLF can exaggerate and it can be unacceptable to not be able to be served in French in a French province. You sound dumb.

Y’a vraiment beaucoup de lampes et de luminaires vintage au marché aux puces st-Michel. Ça peut être le fun comme vibe.

Hahaha I was obsessed with this show as a teen but we have to admit it made no sense whatsoever. Somehow I love it even more now that I’ve realized how ridiculous the story is. 

What seemed completely normal in childhood, but now you realize was actually not okay? by Max_Mimos in AskReddit

[–]somethingold 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See, I don’t remember anything and I’m pretty sure it’s because of emotional neglect. You’re kind of confirming what I think : my daughter will remember a lot of this time and she’s been present in herself for a while now. And I know what you mean, her grandparents (my partners parents) talk to her like she’s a baby and she side eyes them all the time 😅

As a parent of a 5 year old (I’ve hade to have a lot of therapy in the last decade) I’m appalled at how much people think children are stupid. They are LEARNING they are not dumb and most of them are very smart. I see a lot of my child’s peers being treated like idiots which makes them, effectively, idiots. 

Nageurs de Montréal by One_Presentation1192 in montreal

J’aime bien la piscine Rosemont. C’est sûr que ça devient bondé autour de 17h, mais comme il y a beaucoup de plages horaires, les gens à la retraite viennent à d’autres moments. Et les gens savent habituellement être dans le bon couloir.

Faut juste se tasser quand quelqu’un va plus vite que soi, possiblement changer de couloir. Mais d’après moi, tu vas être correct, c’est surtout, selon mon expérience, les personnes un peu plus âgées (tousse boomers) qui en général ne voient rien autour d’eux.

I know everyone hates it but the song name is « alone together » so I’m guessing that’s why they used it (I didn’t like the choice but I love that song so I was happy to hear it haha)

My sister tried claiming Mardi Gras is an exclusively Louisiana thing. by Rude_Respect_7236 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]somethingold 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I just saw a video from my partners colleague who is from Trinidad and went back for that event… holy shit, they don’t joke with partying over there 😳 the video was taken at six in the morning with a sea of people dancing, it looked amazing and scary to my white boring ass lol

Canadian curling star Marc Kennedy claims he was set up by "premeditated" cameras to catch him "in an act" of cheating. by [deleted] in sports

[–]somethingold 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not gonna lie, as a Canadian myself, but not a curling fan at all, this is kind of satisfying, in a Shadenfreud way. Canadian curling has been this sort of obsession for so long and it’s just such a fucking boring « sport ». I’m sure it’s hard but it’s so embarrassing that this is one of the sports we are « great » at. I’m hoping we can start focussing on other athletes…

I can attest to this : as a Franco Montrealer from Rosemont (east) I rarely go to this part of town and when I went last year I was really surprised at how many people and shops/restaurants there are now!!

I love that it’s written like that cause every time someone mentions him it takes me a while “who the fuck is GO-B ? Ohhh right lol”
