lol I usually get into conversations about my hat; it's some Caribana "themed" Jays cap and they just talk about the Jays or other sports.

Most random conversation I remember was a few years ago, while on the TTC going home. I think I was playing one of those doctor games on DS. Some guy in his 40s talks to me about it, then we talk about other things: how he lives in a forest and he wanted to find some camping gear; how a family he sees every morning at the Tim Horton's offered him a car they don't use for him to keep...then it turned into a talk about law.

Nice dude though!

They already have students manning info kiosks; I'm sure having students at the ticket booths wouldn't be any more arduous.

My elevator conversations are easy in my apartment. "This elevator sucks". That can lead into many conversations about the many things wrong with these fucking elevators >=(

It helps that pretty much everyone in Waterloo is a student.

 

[EvilMario]

My building only has six floors, and I usually only go up/down one. Barely any time for chitchat, but I usually have the dog with me which can lead to interesting situations. People either wanting to pet the dog, or people squeezing up against the side of the elevator in complete terror.

Here on co-op actually. I school at Simon Fraser University in the Vancouver area. I remember a guy back in my school who would have GAF open on his screen. Turned out to be Armitage!

 

[Willectro]

Aldwych?! Damn I live nearby the park...lol

We need a Danforth-Gaf meetup sometime.

 

[-COOLIO-]

ok im thinking about getting tickets for the rihanna concert.

should i go with the yellow area at the ACC for $75 or the blue floor area for $115?

Back in my day (god, 4 years seems like forever), I tried that experiment, even in my CS class, not a single one.

Ironically, got a few Penny-Arcade Forumers.

It's supposed to feel like 38 degrees on Tuesday. Guess i'm locking myself indoors.

If you can get a close Yellow seat spot that's what I'd get, otherwise Blue if you actually want to see her.

I recommend the white area.

 

[Oppo]

LOL, zing.

That won't help. Lock yourself in a mall.

 

[Arthrus]

I now am living in Oshawa for a year. So far, it's been kind of boring, so I was wondering: what are some fun things to do in that area?

And of course, in Toronto itself on weekends. So far, I've decided to go to the zoo when the weather gets less rainy, and also signed up for The Great Urban Race. Should be a lot of fun!

 

[Epic Tales of Penis]

For sure man. I'm always at the Danforth Game Centre store at least 1-2 times a week.

 

[Roto13]

38 degrees on Tuesday? Thank god for air conditioning.

 

[Lion Heart]

I just came back from T.O and we ate at Fire and Ice (first time). Now I feel like death and can't move.

God damn.

The building's air conditioning is being turned on on Monday. Perfect timing.

 

[ShaneB]

Will spend all day at work, and then spend all evening at the gym, hopefully it won't be so bad by the time I get home around 8pm or so...

You mean we need a man wax meet up?!

I didn't know I lived so close to Forza D:

hmmm k

just get the floor seats. It's better seeing close up. When I saw Muse I was front row on the floor, right in front of the stage basically. There was a lot of pushing and shoving but it was a rock concert so it was expected. I wouldn't except that from rihanna's concert though

I did that last year. It's crazy, but lots of fun.

Drives my dog insane.

I thought I didn't really like pizza that much... I guess I do now!

Welcome to the club. It's a really excellent place (although it can be very busy on weekends, and evenings). I much prefer it over Terroni's pizza.

 

[lunarworks]

I'm more of a fan of Pizzaiolo. Damn that stuff is good.

Now I wish I'd gone downtown today. I was looking for a good reason, but couldn't come up with one.


Amazing lightning last night, though.

 

[added_time]

Welcome to the club. It's a really excellent place (although it can be very busy on weekends, and evenings). I much prefer it over Terroni's pizza.

I think one of the reasons I loved it so much was that there are a bunch of options that don't have any tomatoes or tomato sauce.
I have never really liked tomatoes so it was always tough for me to find pizza I like because of that.

I had the duck confit and pear pizza. Oh man. So good.

I've been meaning to go there. It's been getting rave reviews everywhere.

As for Pizzaiolo, I go there when I want pizza for lunch. Their spinotta is awesome. Well, everything is awesome, but that's because it's pizza.

 

[dudeworld]

I remember going to Pizzaiolo and having bacon on my pizza for the first time. soooo good

 

[iddqd]

If anyone has neighbors moving out / a nice apartment thats freeing up, let me know.
I`m ready to move together with my girlfriend, GOODBYE MESSY ROOMMATES!

Mayor Ford won’t support tolls to fund Sheppard extension

http://www.thestar.com/news/article...support-tolls-to-fund-sheppard-extension?bn=1

So, destroy already funded Transit City, reaching nearly every neighborhood and the airport. But then find out your subway extension is going to cost lolz amounts of money, and face raising taxes/tolls. Claim that a private/public method to pay for it will come about, but don't actually provide proof this will come to pass.

So basically, we get nothing.. except the Eglinton LRT. OH WELL

I predict this thing will never get build, and our transit system will continue to be antiquated and under-serviced for another 20 years. Oh, and we still have a $774 million shortfall next year.

Well done, Etobicoke and Scarborough voters.

 

[whitehawk]

I'm kind of interested... But also scared.

 

[whitehawk]

For sure man. I'm always at the Danforth Game Centre store at least 1-2 times a week.

Were you by chance there at the L.A. Noire midnight launch? there?

 

[Arthrus]

I did that last year. It's crazy, but lots of fun.

Glad to hear it. My friend and I wanted to go as Batman and Robin (he likes the idea of going as Robin because he's gay and thinks Robin looks gay...) and unfortunately we couldn't find suitable costumes in time. Instead, we'll be running around in morphsuits. Me in black and him in gold.

Ya, the Eglinton LRT isn't gonna get built either.

The moment Ford was voted in was the moment transit got put on pause for four years. (Eight years, if people are dumb enough to vote him back in.)

Nice! Good luck. Top-25 last year got to go to Vegas for the international GUR...budget your time wisely!

We're moving backwards so fast the Spadina Expressway will probably be built.

Take The Car
etc

fuck, why cant our transit system be decent at least

 

[BigJonsson]

He must realllllly think he can get the private sector to pay for this thing

I wish he would show something that would lead us all to believe that he can actually do that

 

[Epic Tales of Penis]

No dude. I was there earlier that day talking to Sam about the whole thing and if it's really worth it for such a small store to do that.

I went in on Sunday and bought two used GBA games. I've been on a retro kick for awhile now...lol.

Eh I think it was a good idea. Otherwise some people would just go to EBGames instead since they can't wait to play it.

Plus I got a 10% off coupon for going at midnight

I don't go there too often anymore, is Sam the 40 year old asain dude who is always there, owns the store?

Free breakfast at Subway tomorrow will help. Fine it won't but I wanted to make sure to remind people.

 

[Oppo]

For sure man. I'm always at the Danforth Game Centre store at least 1-2 times a week.

Put me down for Danforth-GAF, I'm just off Greenwood.

In 38º-related news, I installed a sweet ceiling fan today, checkit.

No, I didn't >:|

 

[added_time]

I'm hoping for some snow today!

 

[ShaneB]

Thank god I won't be home at all today. Work all day. Gym until 8pm. Hopefully it won't be so bad then, I don't deal well with the heat at all.
