  • Yeah it's been a bit tight. Like surely, for $6 you could definitely get more food at the grocery store, but being that poor often involves not having the proper equipment or space to really cook anything. But yeah, our grocery store situation isn't pretty right now. Fresh and healthy foods are expensive.

  • They're very mediocre in Canada. But that said, they're cheap as hell compared to their counterparts. And I'd argue, in many urban centers they definitely are feeding the homeless, just charging for it lol.

    You can get two cheeseburgers, fries and a drink for $6. You can get a pack of nuggies for $3. You aren't getting that sort of bang for buck at any other commercial fast food place around here. Something like that would easily cost close to $10 if not more at mcdonalds.

    I always tell my wife if I was homeless, she'd find me begging for change at the intersection closest to a burger king.

  • Lol so the official Ontario sub got kind of out of hand during the pandemic, where they were simply banning any users who even questioned silly rules or mandates when it came to Covid (Ontario had many rules that simply didn't make sense or outright seemed counter productive in preventing spread).

    It got to the point where an alternative sub was made, and it surprisingly got decently active. I think around 20k users at one point. The banter on that alternative sub was hilarious and was the only sub I really miss.

  • We have maybe 4 or 5 of these babies loaded with dvds and TV series. We basically lived so rural we couldn't stream for years at our old place. But we did have dvds and used these cases since we could haul them from the bedroom to the living room or basement depending what our plan was.

    Now we're lucky enough to have starlink (yes, initiate the Musk circlejerk) and we still sometimes will go through the albums and watch dvds occasionally.

  • That's called failure to check your blind spot. I've driven a pickup for over a decade and never not been able to see when a vehicle is next to me if I physically turn and check my blind spot. Though we are promoting people becoming more lazy with this as most new cars just do this for you. In my newer work vehicle, the side mirrors have an orange indicator turn on when someone's hanging in your blind spot.

  • We are down to Netflix in my household. That was from having prime, crave and Disney at one point. Even Netflix is close to getting the chop, but my wife enjoys it enough. That said, I'm an audiophile and listen to more Spotify and traditional radio (I know I'm a loser, listening to a.m. talk radio and public broadcasting). I just rather listen to stuff while also getting stuff done than sitting on a couch these days.
