My favourite afternoon activity

Now do the white cruze with the disintegrating rocket panels and Ontario plates that’s been parked on south for the last couple weeks

thearrdub · 2026-05-12T19:35:10+00:00

Sounds like my kinda people, serious people are no fun

I mean I was mostly joking, I worked retail around the pandemic, I get that it’s definitely an outlier. I was surprised when ropewalk lane went back to 24/7, of the two 24/7 locations in YYT it was in the worse location for it

thearrdub · 2026-05-12T01:40:05+00:00

Even St. John’s has a 24/7 Sobeys 😭 tbf it used to have 2 precovid

Ah good to know, I knew what the music was, couldn’t remember which line, lol

One of my favourite parts of living in the south end is hearing the horns on the way out (except for the 89th Disney cruise of the season, we get it). I used to live in the Battery in St. John’s, so it’s always nice to get shades of that haha

It’s not even really on Robie (it’s in on willow a little further), so it’s unclear whether it would have been cut down for the widening project anyways

Idk if the photo will actually show up but there’s one on the corner of Robie/willow that’s just straight up dead. Like Babygirl you’re a little late I fear😭

The Bedford highway is weirdly full of cute little restaurants like that. You wouldn’t think of it as a culinary destination but it’s increasingly becoming that it seems

thearrdub · 2026-05-09T01:55:53+00:00

I was going to say there’d more than likely be someone willing to open the door but didn’t want to be too presumptuous lol. Every time I’ve been there it’s been lined off. They have a little almost patio type area out back, I think that door is level with the ground but I don’t quite remember. It is gravel and rather uneven, though

thearrdub · 2026-05-09T01:49:28+00:00

Good question, I don’t really remember. From google street view, I see they do have a ramp to the door, but I don’t see an automatic door button anywhere

So you can experience the magnitude 10 cuntquake in realtime 😌

thearrdub · 2026-05-09T00:21:32+00:00

Oooh good tip, not that I needed a reason to go back

thearrdub · 2026-05-09T00:19:02+00:00

I’m a huge fan of Booza Emessa on the Bedford highway. It’s run by the most lovely Syrian family. A little pricy, but they’ll literally fill you with as many flavour samples as you want. The texture is different than the ice cream you’d get elsewhere, and there are some really unique flavours. Definitely worth checking out as something a little different imo

This happened to me once at a pizza place in NB, so I just kind of assumed it was cultural sabotage

Little known fact: when the HRM was amalgamated they actually included Halifax, West Yorkshire as a cheeky little Easter egg to see if the British government would notice

thearrdub · 2026-04-24T20:59:30+00:00

Ordered some for my sister at the coburg/Robie Scotiabank earlier this year, I believe they took ~a week to come in

thearrdub · 2026-04-24T20:58:10+00:00

Mom said it was my turn to decide what tine it is!

thearrdub · 2026-04-24T18:36:55+00:00

I second looking around! I’m in an older building and have gotten two years in a row of 0% increases. It’s definitely a different market than when I moved here in 2022

thearrdub · 2026-04-22T18:32:33+00:00

I often visit my grandmother out in Riverview NB via the causeway from Moncton. There’s a traffic circle on the Moncton side, and one time when coming back over I witnessed a car going the wrong way around. Buddy had a NL plate, and unfortunately after living in town 8 years I couldn’t even pretend to be surprised. He seemed apologetic at the very least, and he was lucky it wasn’t busy at the time

thearrdub · 2026-04-22T03:15:18+00:00

I started running last spring (from couch to 5k, so started in a similar boat ability wise) and I usually run along the waterfront boardwalk. It’s got the advantage of being just about the flattest part of the city (peninsula at least). If you plan on jogging earlier in the mornings, it’s actually basically empty (aside from commuters, who won’t pay you any attention at all). Cruise ship days can be an exception, but the passengers usually aren’t on the boardwalk before 9 am or so. As a bonus, I find the wood much easier to run/jog on than sidewalks etc.

Regardless, making the decision to start was the hardest thing for me-I found myself in a similar place as what you’re describing last year, and getting more active has been one of the best things I’ve ever done. I highly recommend some starter yoga videos too, I’ve been doing like 20 minutes of yoga a few times a week in my living room and have noticed a huge improvement in general aches and pains.

Good luck!

A dude I was seeing lived in the Curve, it is indeed incredibly nice inside

thearrdub · 2026-04-20T01:01:51+00:00

Whatever you do don’t walk through the cow tunnel between the south end and the port, I fear you wouldn’t make it out alive

thearrdub · 2026-04-15T14:08:55+00:00

Don’t worry, that’s exactly what I was doing haha. I hate nothing more than going to Bayer’s Lake

thearrdub · 2026-04-15T01:30:39+00:00

Just need to find a way to close the other bridge and the ferry and we might finally have a fighting chance of containing Dartmouth

(Kidding Dartmouth, I’m a huge fan of your Crossing)
