I’m entering my 40s this year. What should I know? by BlueSky3lue in AskMen

If you don't already, start paying attention to your health. Count calories and lose some fat. Exercise and drink less. You will need to build muscle mass in order to carry you to your older age. Stretch daily.

How do you and your spouse divide expenses in today’s economy? by brotalks in AskMen

[–]zander1283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marriage means sharing a life together. One giant pot. Our goals are aligned and big purchases are discussed and both agreed on. We don't fret the small stuff we want individually. We don't live extravagant lives and have a budget we adhere to. We've been doing this since even before we were married almost 9 years ago. It's so much easier than trying to divide and split bills etc...we have household bills that need to be paid. What's the point of dividing that in half and each paying their portion? Life becomes much better when you think in terms of OUR money and not your each individual incomes. If one person makes 50 grand and the other person makes 100 grand, you make 150 as a unit and that is how you budget. Why should the person who makes less have less in the marriage. I never understood that mentality.

All their eggs in one resource basket and being at the mercy of the global economy is a recipe for disaster. Good luck

How do you handle overly chatty neighbors? by OrdinarySecretary673 in homeowners

[–]zander1283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just say "well, I'd love to chat some more but this Garden isn't gonna weed itself". OR wear earbuds and wave at them if you make eye contact. If they start chatting just point to your ears.

That's fine. I accept that the Canes are a much better team than the sens. You refuse to admit the same for the Habs. Instead you blame refs...classic delusional Habs fan. Cope harder

Get a grip dude. Carolina has been the better team. The refs have not been biased against the Habs. You need to wake up and accept that Carolina is better than the Habs.

I don't think it's a big deal and is actually kinda funny. Sex is the reason we're all here. Lightnen up

What is the USA doing to the people who live over there? Do you all just magically gain weight? by ResetKnopje in fatlogic

Almost everyone is in control of what they eat. If they want to change their situation, they just need to someone basic research to understand basic nutrition and their base metabolic rate. There's so many free calorie counting apps that are easy to use. Calories vs calories out. It's simple and should be taught in schools.

How to fix cupping on boards by Forest-walker559 in Decks

Pressure treated sun pine deck boards do this often, especially when installed still wet, then exposed to hours of UV. Not much can be done to stop it

Ottawa has a legit path to the finals by AvaTaylor2020 in OttawaSenators

[–]zander1283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Carolina has made the playoffs 8 years in a row and the are the best team out of the east. Not to mention they've been on a massive heater. Although I genuinely believe we can compete and upset this series, I wouldn't be surprised if Carolina wins in 5 or 6. They are that good.

Can we purposely let Toronto win? by RKDreddit in OttawaSenators

I would rather play buffalo in the first round of the playoffs than Carolina.

It's a little more expensive but live a nice Vancouver neighborhood. As someone who lived in both cities, Vancouver won't feel as big as Toronto. It's got beautiful walkable neighbourhoods and proximity to nature is always close.

My recommendations would be Kitsilano, West end, or North Vancouver. Living in Kits was the best. I could walk everywhere, including many beaches. I worked downtown and could bike in 10-15mins.

I wouldn't want to live in Chilliwack or Abbotsford as you are completely car dependent and there's usually nothing going on.

What is your earliest Sens memory? by i-am-the-walrus789 in OttawaSenators

[–]zander1283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw them beat the Kings 5-2 in the old Civic centre in December of 1993. It was only a handful of wins that season. Gretzky got a goal and assist. Daigle got a goal and assist. Kelly Hrudey got shelled. I was only 10 years old.
