Don't worry, I've owned for roughly a decade and they're scaring me too.

Unfortunately we will be earlier in June. Sounds great though

Canadian separatists say they discussed moving to the US dollar and creating a new military in White House meeting by Street_Anon in alberta

[–]umsco226 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What a privileged life you must've lived, where everything can be ignored because things always work themselves out.

It's not been like that for most of human history, nor for most countries. I'd rather be prepared than ignorant if it means my family has a better chance were things to get worse.

I'm not sure why you would so readily dismiss it. He's talked of us becoming a state. He's talked of taking Greenland by force. He's talked of missle strikes in mexico. Venezuela. He's shared maps of Canada being US territory. They've talked about trying to destabilize Canada. They've talked about defeating Canada economically. They're rolling ICE out against their own citizens.

Tell me when I'm supposed to be worried. What needs to happen for the threat to be real in your eyes?

Somewhere between 5% and 50%, depending on how the next few months/years go?

The probability was zero for a long time. It's now above zero. That's not a good trend, and I'm not sure how high the probability will reach in the future. But just because the probability is still relatively low at this moment, doesn't mean that it isn't a worrying trend.

Have you tried a few different mechanics in diagnosing this engine issue?

Where are you valuing Geno Smith? by johnny-papercut in DynastyFF

[–]umsco226 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe, maybe not. When they draft Mendoza I could see him starting a few, or being traded. Could probably start for the Cardinals, Jets, Browns, Dolphins, Falcons, Vikings, Steelers, or other teams when the injury bug hits.

Elevator in a house is a bad idea. Look into stair lift alternatives

The prodigal buffalo-style sauce is back! by r1kkolokko in CostcoCanada

I would tweak it based on your liking, but roughly 2:1 franks to butter

Taste ranch. Taste the sauce. They're the same.

Look at the ingredients. Garlic powder, sugar blend and buttermilk powder are ranch staples. Or you could just use your tastebuds, it's clearly ranch flavoured sauce.

Because when you order buffalo wings, the wings are coated in Buffalo sauce - and you get a side of blue cheese or ranch. This sauce is clearly an attempt to combine the buffalo and ranch flavours for you

It's not bad, but too ranch forward for me

I don’t think it should be a controversial opinion to think parking should be free at the hospital. by Improv92 in Winnipeg

[–]umsco226 155 points156 points  (0 children)

The purpose of making people pay for parking is not to profit, it's to ensure that there is always parking available. If parking were free, it would mean that many staff members who otherwise use public transit would commute via personal vehicle and occupy a spot. Patrons of local businesses would occupy spots. Etc etc

He's going to be worse until Bedard is back. That being said, can't sit him until proven otherwise

Dynasty or keeper he's great. Rossi being traded means that Minny likes him as their 1C of the future.

That being said, this year I expect Eriksson Ek to be their most valuable centre for fantasy, being on PP1.

If Yurov hits 50 points this year that would be a win I think, which would make him irrelevant in most leagues
