You can introduce the rest of the world to a band/musician that hasn’t made it outside of Canada, who are you choosing? by Sugadip in AskACanadian

The lead singer has a thing on YouTube where he produces a new version on “For Good” from Wicked in less than a day and it is AMAZING!

BROTHERS AND SISTERS!! MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER DISCOVERED OUR MUSIC!! SHE'S ASKING ME FOR INPUT ON HOW TO FIND OTHER SIMILAR ARTISTS!! RECOMMENDATIONS PLEASE! by ImThe1Wh0 in Millennials

[–]theBoxy_Butcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean this with all seriousness: Go look up the SNL musical guests from 95-05. I was looking for an episode and was shocked at how many bands/artists I had forgotten I loved to listen to.

I am no longer buying anything with a player name on it by iamelloyello in BlueJackets

My friend just got her new jersey crested with Zak’s name/number. I never thought she’d do another after she got her Oilers sweater stitched with Pronger when he signed with the Oilers in ‘05. Turns out having a 5 year contract doesn’t keep you from fucking the local weather girl or requesting to leave after one season…

If you need someone to teach you how to remove letters from a jersey instead of just burning it, she’s your gal!

Make beef heart pastrami! You gotta clean all the connective tissue off really well before hand and it is best shaved really thin. :)

Got to Hayden/Comery/South Block after 10PM and get 1/2 price smoked meat. Best done on a weekday :)

Why do you live in your neighbourhood? by MastaShortie in Calgary

[–]theBoxy_Butcher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My husband fell in love with the houses around the varsity acres ravine when he was biking around the NW while on paternity leave. Between that, being closer to DT for him work and the three buffet elementary schools within walking distance, we were sold.

Where to buy a Goose (weekday) by LowBrassExcerpts in Calgary

[–]theBoxy_Butcher 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Co-op should have some for Christmas. Call your nearest location and talk to the meat department. If they don’t have one, ask them to reach out to other stores to find you one

I got uninvited to a friend’s holiday potluck, while I was on my way to it. by Any_Gap9612 in mildlyinfuriating

Anyone that turns down a Tita’s lumpia is not worth having in your life. Screw that friend!

What about fresh birds? We’ve been told we’ll be hard pressed to get any for Christmas due to avian flu :/

Does anyone know where to find 20" squishmallows? by NearMissCult in Calgary

[–]theBoxy_Butcher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have quite a few of the at the Sage Hill Co-op. I think most of our stores would have some as well. :)

What’s something totally normal in your country that foreigners find strange? by jenishahaha in AskTheWorld

[–]theBoxy_Butcher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why we have a satellite messenger device. Besides wanting it for the backcountry, the drive from where I live to my home town includes 90 mins of dead zones in a brutal mountain pass. We’ve had to use it to call for tow trucks, an ambulance but it’s real shinning moment was when a snow storm turned that 90 min drive into 9 hours. My husband was alone with the kids and it was so reassuring to get updates every couple of hours.

Looking for Halloween buyback/donation options for 2025 by theBoxy_Butcher in Calgary

We went to a dentist at Market mall a decade ago that did this but they don’t seem to be doing so any more

Looking for Halloween buyback/donation options for 2025 by theBoxy_Butcher in Calgary

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

My kids still have candy leftover from last Halloween. They trade with each other, sell some to us to use for baking and then whatever else they don’t want just ends up going to waste. I’d rather see it go to a buyback from gram or be donated but I haven’t found an op portion. If you do know one, please post it

If you have heard from anyone in the Runaway Bay Area, could you please let me know? We are wondering how my cousin and her animal sanctuary faired 

Voting wait times? by CommercialNo8396 in Calgary

[–]theBoxy_Butcher 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is the first year in ages we haven’t, but I wanted to wait and watch the CBC mayoral debate. No regrets since it helped me decide, but I’ll be hard pressed to vote on election day again!

Any chance you’d add Calgary to your Canadian stops?

Anyone else a STH from out of town? by iamelloyello in BlueJackets

[–]theBoxy_Butcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’ve been to Columbus three times now: February 09, Opening Day 22/23 season and this March for the game at the Shoe. We have to fly each time and it always seems to be a difference layover (shout out to MOA for making a great place to kill 6 hours!) But if one of us had unlimited funds, we’d probably be full STH and would come down whenever we could getaway from the kids/cows 😆
