I also never feel amusement
I'm not sure what this is, but apparently there's some sort of Xbox event next week in Toronto?
I just noticed you can get passes from Best Buy here: https://bestbuyrewardzone.ca/en/offerDetails.jspx?offerCode=PO1993M

Husband/father of the year material there.
We left and are heading home now. It's getting worse every year and this year it seemed even MORE people forgot how to walk bit learned how not to give a shit. Tons of people standing in the middle of a walkway, stopping suddenly without checking behind them, jumping in front and cutting you off.
Lol, she was not pleased especially when she heard how much it cost.
We're just leaving now. I still like looking around but I cannot do back to backs spin rides anymore. Which I feel bit bad about since the kids want me to go on the rides with them.
Since I got #old, now I know what my mom felt like when I wanted her to take me on all the spin rides at Wonderland
I went to Wonderland last year and was on two spinning rides before I had the worst headache and called it a day for rides.
Might've been because I hit my head a bit too hard on the head rest or just the rides overall, but it made me feel old lol

I haven't been on a single ride since I went on this drop of doom type ride in Seoul. Looked down. Bad mistake. Nearly fainted. That park was so terrible; pieces of the roof brok and fell down a few months later and some guy died on a ride when it was stuck in the air at an awkward angle and he got out and tried to jump off.
I rarely go to Wonderland. I've been spoiled with Disney World and Universal Studios in Florida the last few years (not every year lol), so Wonderland wasn't quite as enchanting for me. /opulence
I was good with the rollercoasters (and everything else) last year, but after the spinning rides, I probably wouldn't have been able to handle anything else.

I haven't been to Wonderland since... 2007? I think
I had season tickets throughout my childhood so kinda just got burned out I guess. Some of the attractions which opened in the last few years are interesting though, so I'm keen to make a visit if not this year then next
I agree with Quick though, as I've gotten older, I tend to appreciate the atmosphere and other details that go into theme parks more than the rides themselves. That's why I still love Disney and Universal today, but feel like I've grown out of Wonderland somewhat.

Which department?
For those who haven't been in a while, Leviathan is a legit amazing roller coaster
I haven't been in 3 years I think, I miss all the Paramount stuff lol
Foods. Dutch Treats and it's surrounding stands to be specific.

I worked foods for half a season, and games for several
Games >>>> foods
I could never do games. Trying to get people to play them would drive me nuts. I didn't mind foods, except when they loaned me to carts (where they sold the ice cream bars etc) if they were short staffed. That was fucking BORING. It was never busy and you were supposed to always look busy but there is only so much you can do with the cart.

Yup, that's one of the reasons I switched out of foods

Smell that, #TeamWarm? That's called breathable air.

I hope that tie restricts your breathing...! >=[
Still warm....!!!!
Still patio weather.
I'm going to put my hoodie on. As I brought up at the meet up, I dunno if all the women here are going through menopause, but it's chilly af in this office.
Soon...
(hopefully)
I really want a cheesecake...
If I could just walk in and buy a cheesecake, I'd be at Tetsu all the time downtown. $10 is a fine price and it's a good, not spectacular, cake. But if you're asking me to wait an hour plus, fuck off. I can walk to Chinatown and get an equivalent.
I wonder what the Unionville line will be like after a couple of months.
Just get there at like 8am.
I was not prepared for this morning. I shivered when I got out of bed.

It'll be worse because Asians love lining up for things
Likely not enough traffic to fund it and make it break even / profitable. We use to have the Rochester ferry, but that's the issue it ran into.

Warm outside. Cold inside due to cranked AC
i just googled it and the last time there was any new/talk of this was in 2013
the ferries can be the small sized ones, and you can have it run 3 times a day (one select days if that's too many) morning/afternoon/evenings
benefits are quicker access to border and southern regions
i'd imagine it would be very profitable in the non-winter times
I think you're underplaying the costs of upkeep because actually the trips themselves won't be where the strain really is. Even if you're running 3 times per 3, or 'select days', the cost of staffing, upkeep on the ferries, facilities, etc are where the real drain will be. So you'll have to charge a higher price to maintain because you're running infrequently, that and that'll deter people. Then low ridership will drive prices higher as well, if not outright cancel it.
I'm not saying it wouldn't be cool. I rode ferries all my life growing up in the Bay Area. But I'm certain this all comes down to what studies tell them about cost and they do have the Rochester ferry to justify their predictions.
So... anyone else going to the Xbox Media Showcase thing? I just got my event confirmation
I got mine too, but can't remember the benefits of it other than 1st in line and maybe a drink? It is open to the public anyways.
I remember having a good time last year with the Live demos

Make Tronna GAF proud.
I'm in my hoodie right now too.
I pitched the idea of a #TeamReasonable a few months ago but got shut down.
I'll try again right now:
#TeamReasonable is now recruiting members. As members of #TeamReasonable, we will advocate for hot weather in the summer, cold weather in the winter, and moderate weather in fall and spring.
You've been here long enough to know that's it either #TeamWinter or #TeamLosers. CHOOSE WISELY!
#TeamWarm or #TeamColdLosers
It really started off with #TeamSummer vs #TeamWinter.
Then #TeamSummer rebranded itself #TeamWarm to try and claim Spring and Fall. It's not as if #TeamWinter suddenly went #TeamCool
It should be #TeamSummer vs #TeamWinter, or #TeamHot vs #TeamCold.
