So you're actually more team seasons than team cold. Team seasons is the correct team to be in.

HMV Yonge and Dundas is closing next Saturday it seems. They're down to 70% off.
Also so many weebs in Toronto... basically have to line up over an hour in advance to get a good seat in an anime screening. Such a change from the empty theaters of Guelph. lol

Thanks for that. Gonna take a trip there in the next few days to see if I can grab any blu rays I've got my eye on, on the cheap.

Good luck. It's down to the barebones at this point, understandably. lol
My friends in Vancouver went to something and they happened to sit behind a group of teenagers that made lots of noise during all the fanservice shots.

I knew something was wrong when Sword Art Online or whatever was still listed week after week after week, every time I checked movies at Y&D. And I'm like, who's watching this?
So I checked the listings earlier this week for Your Name and yup that shit was already sold out all weekend haha. (I could see the dub but nah.)
Depending on how reliable you feel this is:

extremely well regarded
Unless you're going for football, then go elsewhere
Haha even then, the two schools in question are ranked side by side. In the end those rankings are made by an aggregate score of some sort. Specific programs will vary.
On top of that, the ranking seems to be for research, so it depends on what kind of program it is, whether it's course based or a research thesis.
I'd say come to Toronto to be part of gaf's best community.
What program/major are you studying?
Shin Godzilla, the last movie funimation put out here, was in theatres for a few weeks. Hopefully it's the same, I got my tickets for your name early but they still seemed to go fast.

That either sounds fun or horrid. lol
Yeah. It's crazy - it's the first time I've seen a giant line up to go into an individual theatre an hour in advance in a long time.
GuP and Sailor Moon were well attended, but not completely full... that's the type of crowd I expected. But then again, those are older films that everyone has seen already, so all the hardcores probably pirated them already. lol
I believe it's a fairly limited run - Cineplex only lists screenings up to next Thursday.
If you are crazy and have time, I know that Guelph has a screening on the 26th (I was looking it up for someone there).
Yeah, you should be comparing programs rather than schools. Everything is interchangeable except the professors that you will want to hook up with for either research opportunities or reference letters.
I'm going to be getting a masters of science in information. Particularly HCI/UX design. I visited and loved everyone I met. Not only that but they offer a dual program with sexual diversity studies (I'm a psych and women's studies double major). I got into UMSI as well which is one of the best programs in the US, so I'm trying to make a decision, but only having an American perspective, I don't know much about Toronto's reputation.

Oh wow, we may be classmates. lol Although I'm going for LIS and ISD myself, assuming I accept the offer.
I applied in part because I know someone who worked for the department for a while and said it's the best IS program in Canada (there are only 6 schools with an MI program in Canada apparently, so there's that to think about). But I also heard that, at least at the time, their support for graduates left something to be desired and that a lot of the reasons people would want to go to the program - namely the job fairs and co-op opportunities - were spearheaded by students rather than by faculty.
The UofT "name", for whatever that's worth, is probably the most recognizable Canadian name. It's why the MBA and Law Schools can charge 30-40k a year and people will pay, even though York University is literally right up the road and charges half the tuition for equivalent degrees.
Will the Leafs make the playoffs tonight? Or will they fuck up spectacularly as is their wont?
It's the most regarded school in Canada.
Also, the campus is in the heart of Toronto, so you get to experience the lifestyle that comes along with that.

I was just wondering how that would translate to the American job market. Do you know anything about their reputation for support for their grads now? Their employment report had a pretty high employment rate, but ISD, HCI, etc. have a huge demand at the moment.

I don't really know much about the American market, but I have to imagine UofT is recognized as a good school down there by big companies anyway. It's hard because it's not like there is necessarily an "ivy league" system here where you can just point to a school as "top tier", but if you actually want the ALA accreditation (for some reason I still think librarian might be an okay job option for me despite the lack of jobs and the highly competitive nature lol), then Toronto is probably the most well-known program of the various MI programs in Canada.
My understanding is that the support for grads is better now, after people complained the years before. A couple of people on reddit talked about the faculty having regular professionalization seminars and speakers from companies in the city, so there's that.
And yet this is the first time they made the playoffs in a full season since the implementation of a salary cap after the 2004-5 lockout.
That's rather mean. This represents a start of a good era (we hope). The amount of rookies that have excelled this season lends hope for the future. A few changes on defense and hopefully it's upward and onward.

It's funny. I don't miss owning an Xbox since every single game is also on Windows but once and a while I miss having a PlayStation for a few exclusives like Persona or Last Guardian. But I heard they are bringing PS4 games to PS Now so I guess I can use my PC for those as well!

It's only on three phones, because of new bands nobody uses. So maybe?
They are up to 6 now and apparently plan to have a dozen by Summer.
Anyway Mobile Syrup tested it
They also launched new plans. You're no longer regulated to the one LTE plan. All plans have LTE now. However, they removed the free Tab of $100-$300 depending on the phone. You're paying the full cost of the phone no matter what now
Now it's bright and sunny and the ground is nearly dry.

Took the words outta my mouth,my dude.
You need to get the little sticker on your monthly pass that covers that, otherwise, yes
What's this sticker you are talking about? And how much it cost?
edit: It seems like there's two options for me. $4 cash or token + $0.50.
I must have been mistaken, but id have sworn i read up on that once upon a time. Pay extra for a stick thats meant to indicate youve covered the extra fare.
You found actual facts though, so ignore me.

Hey guys. I'm a broke University student, and other than my school's gym (I go to UTSC), does anyone know a good Gym in Scarborough that's cheap and has a good amount of weights? (I'm trying to tone up).
Remember Jian Ghomeshi? He's back. In pod form.

This place is pretty good. Close to Christie subway stn. Not too busy, I've gotten walk-in appointments within an hour or two even on a Saturday.

There's always House of Lords on Yonge just south of Bloor. $16-20 bucks
If you want to splash out for an extra couple bucks, I'd recommend The Crow's Nest in Kensington Market. I've been going there for 5-ish years now and I love it. Just remember to book an appointment. (Can book appointments online through their site.)
