What a surprise, bigots going to be bigots.

You know the definition of bigot makes you one too, right? Probably avoid using that word in the future.

"Christianity" isn't a religion.

Yes it is

It blankets sub-religions.

"Christianity" isn't a religion.

Not voting. But I'm not surprised.

You said "mankind" and then "nation". No, nation. Yes, mankind. Because of all the Tardis' that actually believe what the media and government says is true.

If it takes me forty-five seconds to mute and/or turn off a thirty-second video, I will go to the trouble of doing so. I can't stand being forced to do something I don't want to. For the rest of my life, if they manage to get their name across to me, I will avoid the company in the ad. It does them more harm than good, I think.

Pretty sure the others from the Calgary area can back me up on the old "Blaskin and Lane" radio ad. I will not use them for my vehicle.

Playing the game, code books, or 1-800 numbers.

"Where the fuck am I?/What the fuck is this?"

Don't care who has "best" what. It's all subjective and my Xbox hasn't caused me any problems. Meanwhile Playstation and Nintendo....

I have only one and it's fine enough.

...maybe read up a bit on the nuts and bolts of exactly how our government runs.

Poorly?

My friend worked in Ottawa and said he hated every waking moment of his life. He was told what to say and do, and couldn't speak what he felt. Said it was the worst experience of his life. I can only imagine what kind of person you'd have to be to continue doing what they do.

I've spoken with local MLAs, older ones, who say that people basically don't care anymore. Doesn't affect them personally, doesn't matter. It's just really piss-poor and lacking any kind of honour, which is a disgrace.

PS - It had been explained to me.

Why not?

A resolution is a written motion. Note: "...for amending the Constitution."

Thanks, but no thanks.

M103 was not a motion to amend the constitution.

I don't trust it, the way this country is headed. I just can't wait until our PM is gone, and so is she.

We have guns in Alberta.

A resolution is a written motion. Note: "...for amending the Constitution."

...it's actually a bill now, I just posted a link?

It's actually pretty sad how many "Canadians" are okay with the direction this country is headed to the point where they support it and defend against Canadians who care about the country.

And the born-citizens-turned weren't the ones behind this.

Dude, it's not that at all. It only protects "them".

And of course she was relieved... She needs the boot and so does Trudumb. They both have no business there. Just like Trudumb Sr almost collapsed us in the 80s over oil as well.

You, uh... do understand that Motions like M103 are non-binding, right?

A motion is not a bill. The law hasn't changed at all. A Motion is basically just saying "The government thinks this." It has all the legislative power of a Facebook press release.

Nah, it's passed HoC already. It just needs to pass senate... That's why I asked.

Motion > HoC > Bill > Senate > Law.

I remember when this first broke, and it was a group of them in Saskatchewan that was pushing for this, because they felt like they were being attacked... Welcome to a country where that's allowed.

Don't like it? Go home.

So I guess it's okay for them to crap all over our Charter of Rights and Freedoms, then.

HoC or senate?

You're joking, right?

Matt's a dummy. She's not my type. And five months is quite a long time to put into a girl, only to tell her something like that. Think he would have noticed sooner. Or, just not cared. This seems like a Seinfeld episode.

. What controls can be put in place for random murder?

That's called... the law

Because the law predicts when it will happen. And, you know, stops it from happening.

Law would be equivalent to administrative controls, fourth on the list.

I've been wanting to do that a lot lately, mostly because I've been working 5 days a week, and I'm having to wake up at 6:00 am to go work at a job that I'm hoping to move away from.

A whole 5 days a week? That's unprecedented, how do you cope?

Reminds me of Dumb & Dumber. "Unless you wanna work forty hours a WEEK!"

Well I don't make $25/hr sitting at home, so.

That's okay. I got modded for something that they said was offensive, but it really wasn't. I've since done some searching online and found all I need to about them.

Funny, because we have an over-abundance of white-collars in the city, and not enough labourers, after the last crash that OPEC forced on us. People with drug and alcohol addictions in the labour force who, surprisingly, can't manage their money, said "I'm not doing this again." and left the province.

All these young kids want the $60-90k/year positions, not realising that a degree doesn't guarantee you a job. Especially when the economy hits rock-bottom. Also not realising that some of these labour positions will pay that. You just... actually have to work.

Guys who work their way up the ladder, eventually needing a couple years of schooling, can make $1500/day sitting in a heated shack watching others work.

Turning dynamic range on or whatever it was called helped when I tested it this afternoon

Perfect.

Housing is so cheap in the US. Over twenty acres and 2,500 sq. ft. would run you a milli here, easy. That's not even relative with dollar conversion.

Yeah, that's only $331,000+ here. Wonder what the US laws are on people outside the country buying property to rent there.

Our tax dollars at work in this topic.

She is working as an unpaid intern you loon.

This is why I asked. Man, if I could sit on my cell-phone while cleaning giant oil holding tanks without risk of massive explosion, and gunking my phone up with oil, I definitely would find a nice "corner" to sit down in.

I was going to say Sanders. That whole thing was a disaster. He should be in office now, but too many people are against socialised schooling and healthcare for the public, not thinking about the fact that people who are in jail get all these things paid for with tax dollars anyways.

Rob a bank? Do a dime, come out a lawyer. Why not?

The only language I've ever bothered learning is Japanese. No other country really offers anything you need to know the language for unless you want to tour the world.

English works pretty much everywhere. I spent two months in Japan with a very basic understanding of the language. A lot of menus and signs have Furigana, or even English, so it's not necessary to have an N2 or N1 understanding of the language. There are online translators now, that for the most part, can get the point across. Lots of people go to China, Turkey, Russia, France (which are by far the most rude people when it comes to speaking to I've personally come across - they will not speak to you unless you try to speak French to them first) where those countries in some areas won't speak English at all. The languages of those countries would be equally as important to the people traveling to them.

Ever heard of Richmond, BC? That's in Canada, where the two official languages are English and French, and it is federal law that everything written must be in English or French, yet the Chinese population is so high there, that some areas are strictly for Chinese only. You can not read a word of anything in your own country, because it is not meant for you. And nobody takes action against it. How sad is that?

Anyone know what happened with the series after the original PS2 release? I dumped around 580 hours into one character, and about 250 into my other two characters each, and then the game kind of just fell off. I even have the GMR sword still, from when that magazine was a thing.

Said I'd never buy a PS4 unless SotC2 or Monster Hunter...

Welp.

There's no SotC2 and Monster Hunter is also going to be on pc and xbone.

It's close enough.

Beats me. The last few FF games weren't even worth playing, imo. Not into that style of battle system.

replace spark plugs

Ah, yes, spark plugs. I can on a rotary engine, because you just reach into the engine bay and unscrew them (at the side of the housing). Most of my vehicles are/have been raised, and honestly I wouldn't know where to look. On an older carbureted engine, don't you just follow the cables down from the distributor?

I have some rules:

No pets.

No kids.

Have fun.

go ahead an hit my truck with the cart, i don't care. it's an almost 20 year old truck

I have a 2001 Infiniti QX4 that had one previous owner. I've only owned new vehicles before this, so I don't really care what happens to this thing. It's funny when people park too close to me, like they think I'm just going to get in my passenger side and climb over, like I care if my door bangs off their entire vehicle... When I'm in my new trucks, I avoid the ratty vehicles at all costs, because I know they feel the same way.

Reason being in the U.K they have a locking mechanism on the trolleys that requires a £1 coin to unlock them and when you return the trolley to the trolley area and relock it you get your £1 back.

A buck here doesn't get you much, so a lot of people leave their carts laying around the Wal-Mart parking lot. Sometimes, if I have the time, I'll go around collecting the carts. It does add up.

Yes.

The people who don't are the downfall of society, because their laziness and lack of caring doesn't stop there.

There are people who get paid to collect the carts, but that isn't their only job, And sometimes people call in sick. The weather here gets to -40 and below sometimes, with upwards of three feet of snow. I've worked in a department store, and had to help those guys when they were short-staffed. It sucks, bad.

People who grew up in the 70s when technology started coming in are all almost fifty. So I'd say you're looking at another ten years or so of this, depending how long our grandparents live. Not to mention the fact that this stuff used to happen with snail mail as well. How many people fell for that before there was Google?

it's actually kind of funny.

my wifes grandpa constantly asks her to do something with his TV because he pushed a button and it did a thing, or she orders hearing aid batteries from amazon for him, and it's like, he could absolutely learn how to do these things.

and yet, i've seen him literally take apart a car piece by piece and reassemble it without looking anything up. that blows my fucking mind that he can do that, but doesn't understand how to press the input button on his tv remote control a few times.

I can add oil and torque a tire, when I have jacks and stands. That's all. I think it's a stubbornness issue. I was thinking about going to mechanics school. They will always be in demand.

Idk if it's been mentioned, but don't buy it for the Xbox for this reason: It constantly freezes after you've done enough things in the game because there isn't enough RAM to run it properly.

Never ran into that, and I had characters that had done everything.

I don't know what the issue was, then. I ran both versions on the same Xbox... So unless it was the Xbox. Or the fact that we (cousin and I) were farming Vivec guard armour like we were supplying all of Nirn, and selling them to the mudcrab, plus taking over whatever houses we wanted, and decorating them that way, too. Silver everything. Everywhere.

It could have been my Xbox, but, I didn't have any issues with any other games, and I feel the way I played Morrowind was the factor in it. But also, if the game let you do all that (move items around and spend RAM) then it shouldn't be a problem. They should have accounted for that.

They should just re-release DFall and up on the new consoles. I mean, they remastered the newest game in the series already.. What's that about? I actually liked Morrowind. And with today's tech, they could even add ragdoll physics to it...

Now I want to play this and DFall again.

Said I'd never buy a PS4 unless SotC2 or Monster Hunter...

Welp.

They could put a timer that records an average, and display that over all loading screens. So you have an idea of whether or not you can make it to the bathroom or kitchen and back in time.

There's a Budweiser beer commercial that came out when I was eighteen. Can't find it anywhere, but it has a catchy riff that I figured out and still remember how to play on guitar.

There was one on a Molson Canadian beer commercial as well, that I also figured out, but that one is on YouTube.

I hate when there's just not enough song for Shazam to pick it up. Or too much bg noise.
