If your buying a laptop for work, just buy one for work. Gaming laptops are rarely worth the extra cost. You could buy a decent laptop for 4-5 hundred dollars and just buy a Playstation 4 with the remaining money and an adapter to play it on your laptop screen.

If your bothering to build a proper gaming pc, then go desktop. You can make a decent desktop pc for 1100ish.

Been there... we had a Shih Tzu for 17 long years. Everything was great up until the very last week when he started to go and fast. He went completely blind(he was already somewhat deaf), stopped eating his food and eventually didn't even have the energy to move. His back spine started to be felt, so my family took the conscious decision to have him put down. I miss that guy almost every day. Best dog in the world. We had him trained to not bark a lot, though my aunts toy poodle quickly took that away. When he went deaf it was a blessing in disguise as he could be around kids without going completely nuts from the doorbell.

But 17 years is a long time to be around an animal and suddenly have it gone. I can only imagine cat owners who have their cats 20+ years.

It really depends on where you are. For example: Tim Hortons usually has a long drive-thru line, but if I park my car and go inside there might be only 1 person ahead of me in the line. That said, I've also been inside a Tims where they literally stopped serving customers in the standing line to go serve drive-thru, even though drive-thru wasn't that busy. They got an earful from the customers in the restaurant for being dumb. I waited for nearly 15 minutes just to get a coffee.

Still wouldn't matter, you computer has restore states where you can go back to if something goes wrong in your computer. It's how some take care of viruses. The only downside is you lose data after that point. You pretty much have to do a fresh re-install and immediately throw a restore point to prevent that from happening. I'll still be able to to see history unless its a fresh install.

Cassidy's and especially Ryan's gimmicks are just so stupid and obviously phony to me and I just can't take either seriously. It just underminds whatever talent they do have. People complain when WWE does stupid stuff, rightfully so, but people are fine when Indy guys do the dumbest stuff.


I hear you, but Cassidy wasn't getting noticed prior to this gimmick. He was doing what everyone else was doing, and when he switched to this gimmick it got over. He could be worse, like Super Cop Dick Justice or Gentleman Jervis. I can only imagine Cornette would have an aneurism seeing either of them.

I wouldn't tie Cassidy in with Ryan and Stunt. Ryan and Cassidy can wrestle, they just have weird gimmicks. Stunts just weird in general, hard to take him serious. Cassidy usually has a break point during the match where he actually wrestles normally, but since he is known for that gimmick its going to be some time before they can change him into a serious wrestler.

They aren't. I've had them a handful of times. It adds a very subtle flavor to your soda barely noticeable. Obviously this is only for sodas, I wouldn't really recommend it for things like boba tea and the like, but it puts the idea out there to make edible straws.

I'd argue it isn't the conservatives that are the bad guys. Just their leader. At least from what I've read over the past few months. I'm sure there are a bunch of conservative workers that have great policies. If I were to make a comparison it would be the Susan G. Komen situation. We like that they are for cancer awareness, but their CEO is an evil pos. Or hell, the WWE would be another example. We like the wrestlers, but the boss is out of touch with modern society.

Ontario has 121 seats... that is, aside from Quebec, THREE TIMES the next highest province.

That said, the Atlantic provinces are an issue - they have way more seats than there should be per population. I think it is less than 1:60k electors compared to the 1:100k electors in Alberta, for example.


Newfoundland has 7, compared to the 1 it had 6 years ago. And guess what? that 1 person? wasn't getting heard. No matter how many times we had real issues going on, whether it be foreigners fishing in our waters with Ottawa doing nothing about it, or some dumb broad Pam Anderson coming to our province to protest a fishing practice that hasn't been used in 50 years. I'm glad they have more seats in the house now.

That said, as I said before the entire thing needs to be changed. Many provinces aren't getting heard when big issues pop up. It's bad enough when the premier doesn't do his job, but when the Prime Minister doesn't do it. All hope is lost. Now, that said, Trudeau through all his controversy has been much better than Harper. Harper only cared for Alberta.

Try seeing it as a politician. You going to grind for votes in Saskatchewan with a million people? or Ontario with 15 million people?

As a Westerner I totally get it. But come on. Can't blame them for focusing on Ontario.


I get that view of it, I just think its extremely corrupt, that's all. I think the BQ leader pretty much summarized my thoughts. He didn't give a shit about any other province other than his own. He'd rather see Canada burn so long as Quebec lived, which is the way things have been playing out the past 20 or so years, albeit on a wider scale.

Harper didn't give 2 shits about the Atlantic provinces and it showed. He actually had to have a police escort when he was campaigning in Newfoundland for fear that he would get beaten up, or far worse, for all the nonsense that went down within the 3 years prior. But we couldn't vote him out until other provinces felt the same way that we did. Hell, he would probably be still Prime Minister if it wasn't for John Olivers last night bit.

I just think that seats need to be normalized that's all. 1 province shouldn't have full power over an entire election campaign. Ontario has almost as much minimum seats as all other provinces minus Quebec combined. Meaning that it would take nearly all the provinces to counter that vote to shift an election.

My problem with this election, is the same with the American election. You only have 2 options. Every other party might as well not exist when it comes to getting the leadership role. If you hate Trudeau your going to vote Scheer, and vice versa. There are a few of us that went with Singh. But we all secretly knew that wasn't going to pan out. The problem lies with the voting process.

Even if Singh won the Maritimes, Newfoundland and BC it doesn't matter so long as Trudeau won Ontario as its basically a win for Trudeau. The system is so broken its no longer funny. Population-wise I get it. Ontario has a higher population than all those other places. But to hold at minimum 95 seats is just ridiculous. Every province should have the same number of seats, or reduce the number of seats to something manageable. Having 1 province hold the majority power is asinine. It basically means that as long as someone focuses solely on Ontario issues, they will never get removed from parliament.

Open world doesn't necessarily mean better. Just look at MGS5. Games back in the 90s had one advantage: No DLC. DLC has allowed developers to create content past the initial release, so publishers aren't as willing to wait for a game to be finished before releasing. DLC should never be used to finish a game, only enhance it through expansions 2-3 years after the initial release.

The guy has proven to be a liar, he's dodging every question that is put against him, and he holds dual citizenship(which isn't a big deal to me, but apparently is when you run for office). How is the NDP not getting many votes in comparison? Do people in Canada want to vote in someone like Trump?
