I finished watching just a few days ago, so thanks for filling in my "I watched this series and this is how I will react" post quota.

In the meantime, all dem feels by the end of the series.

Question about rogers cell phone bill. by amazingBRIANin canada

[–]someone173 0 points1 point ago

Lots of stuff to read, but here's the relevant part of the thread:

This is about Rogers Wireless Retention Plans. Wireless companies do not want you to sign with a competitor. If you call in to cancel, you will be directed to the customer relations department so that they can negotiate into keeping you. It doesn't matter if you are still on a contract, after about three or six months of paying your bills on time Rogers will know that you are a customer worth keeping. It's not that easy to cancel. Don't worry about bluffing. You can always say that "you'll think about it" if the plan isn't something you're happy with and then hang up.

Get in touch with the retentions department. There's a huge thread on RFD on this sort of thing, and basically teaches you on the art of arguing your way for a lower cellphone bill.

The width is about 10mm smaller than the ones he's looking for (130 vs. 140), just as a bit of a warning.

In the meantime, I will say that shipping time is rather quick, I just got my pair of glasses today after having ordered them 9 days ago, and this is shipping to Canada too.

(Canada) The youth want education, the adults want jobs, the elderly want support, and what does Harper do? Today's headline: "Harper pledges $110M per year for Afghan army" This man does not represent us. This is not democracy. by cruyfffin worldnews

[–]someone173 0 points1 point ago

This 40/60 argument again. If I had a nickel for every time this argument was thrown around like a rag doll, I'd have a fuckton of nickels. Anyways, the breakdown would be more 20% for a left leaning party and 30% for a centrist party that really isn't any better than the conservatives. As much as I am not a fan of Harper, lumping the Liberals, NDP and Green Party each with different ideologies as some mega left-wing party is such a lame excuse, it frankly makes us look like even more sore losers.

Dear Reddit, what was your first drunken experience? by bobaain AskReddit

[–]someone173 0 points1 point ago

Went to a frat party during orientation week in university (17 at the time), and have no prior drinking experience. Throw up twice, get thrown in a cab, and quickly become a prime example for other frosh on what not to do in a frat party all in the span of maybe 2 hours or so (some say much less). Parents end up paying a $65 cab fare, generating awkwardness the next morning.

My friends still joke about it from time to time.

Why do I find myself becoming racist towards certain Asians here in Toronto? by contorfusionin toronto

[–]someone173 20 points21 points ago

There's actually a term for these people in Chinese, it's called "富二代" (2nd Gen rich kids), and it's apparently even worse in Vancouver, with stuff like this happening over there. In the meantime, I'm curious which part of the city you're finding these people, even the recent wave of Mainlanders in Scarborough (or at least my neighborhood) are way more humble than what you've described.

Man vs Metro ( An incredibly done Man vs Wild spoof) by TheVenturain videos

[–]someone173 0 points1 point ago

I am Chinese. I've been to China. I can confirm that we are TERRIBLE drivers. The difference is that they're all equally terrible over there, so it works out in some strange way. Of course, these skills don't transfer over in other countries.

LCBO has got to go. by kcstrikein toronto

As much as I like the system in certain aspects, the things that bug me with the LCBO are enough to agree with this.

I live by the Warden/Steeles Foody Mart. It's chaos theory on wheels, and there's also the bonus of having a tiny parking lot.

Which subs are people watching for this? The only one I'm coming across for the 6th episode are from ShinBunBu-Hadena, but it seems the general consensus of them is "lolHadena" (looking at their website, I can see why).

Do not downvote deadcoil!

This is like yelling to a river "Stop flowing in that direction!". You really messed this one up.

Moving to Toronto - How bad is the traffic on the 401 in the morning? by ienjoyfoodin toronto

[–]someone173 0 points1 point ago

Not sure, though the train seems to run the slowest between Eglinton and Bloor IMO.

Moving to Toronto - How bad is the traffic on the 401 in the morning? by ienjoyfoodin toronto

[–]someone173 2 points3 points ago

Given where he lives, it's very possible. He goes northbound on the YUS (very little traffic that way), take the Sheppard line (which no one ever uses), and take the 190 to STC (Which are pretty efficient).
