and even then im against forcing them to die or shooting them with a gun

Look at fuckin mother Theresa over here.

Spent two hours in the parking lot last night at 1am listening to fire alarms go off and it ended up being a burst pipe above the coffee shop.

Fucking sucked. Now im going to work.

Also i was the only one in the building who brought his pet out Walter was pissed at being stuck in my car but wtf is up with people thinking the building is burning and not bribing out their pets.

I dunno who the best live show I've seen was but I genuinely have to give consideration to Fenix tx who I saw incidentally twice not even knowing they were at those shows and both times they were just fucking hilarious.

I've rarely laughed that hard.

For me seeing panteras last north American show was just iconic though. Of all the concerts I saw that was my... I dunno... the one I am just glad I was there for.

Great song.

Dream theater is one of those bands I never really got. Like ok its decent and I have listened to some songs over rather course of years but I never felt like they were amazing.

Canadian Highwayman could be something amazing. Get that shit on while Tyson and Lightfoot are still alive.

Omg yes.

He was just mad that I disturbed him. Cavaliers are the friendlies dogs you could ever meet.

That is wild. I only know a little about GG Allen but I know enough to know he should never be on TV.

@Woozul i think you were left off the tag list. Wanted to make sure you were represented.

He came across... I mean some of the shit he said regarding his daughter was insanely fucked... but overall he sort of came across well.

The fan girl even came across pretty well in terms of responding to the audience.

Iirc. Maybe I am way wrong but that's how I remember it when I saw it a couple years back.

Questionmarktarius posted...

That's petty good.
Country music, US or Canada, needs another concept-album Willie Nelson or another storyteller Tom T. Hall.

Gordon Lightfoot is Canada's Tom T. Hall.

Goddamn right.

Or a Waylon or a kristoffeson.

I'd actually say that gordon is like Dylan or Kris but I see the reasoning.

I dunno. "Canada country" seems to be what Hugh Laurie and Stephen Fry reverse-engineered thirty years ago.

I mean that does sound exactly like stompin tom who was another og.

Questionmarktarius posted...

Where does Ian Tyson fit into this?
Didn't he invent that?

Fuck yeah he did.

I don't know if he gets credit for it but realistically yes he did.

Honestly corb Lund is my favorite example but hes not as good as the early days... still he has some fucking amazing songs.

Oh man. Suicidewinder. This is almost a bit rap or maybe spoken word but Jesus its good.

Fred Eaglesmith is a cool name

Also true.

Omg imma go on a huge fred eaglesmith kick now. Its been so long since I listened to this dude.

Hes a fucking awesome as fuck guy.

My uncle saw him in concert at a shitty little pub that is (was it burned down) this really legendary and ancient hole in the wall grimy pub and there was a buncha HAs there and Fred apparently ridiculed them the whole time.

I interview him once and he literally pulled over somewhere on the crows nest pass in the dead of winter just to be able to do the phone in from a payphone and like... obviously he had no reason or obligation to complete that commitment to do a interview and the guy was outside in winter on the fucking crows nest pass just being cool as fuck.

Trust me, we have a gallon jar of pickles in the fridge. Shit is disgusting. I'd rather line my intestines with tequila.

Oh yeah? Well I'm sitting here eating cookies made at a Mennonit bakery. They use lard to make everything. It's super unhealthy and delicious.

Mennonites know how to eat. And Mennonite sausage is fucking incredible. And they can run. Boy oh boy can those schmellies run though.

I dated a mennonite girl for... a relatively long time... I suck at relationships. But I was young then and fuck the food her parents would make us and also the awkwardness of them knowing she mostly stayed with me. It was a weird combo.

Ive never had my heart broken like she did.

But another thing that was awesome was her dad was baked Ernie and this song is just the fucking best.

*the food her parents made us was good. Not fuck the food.

Did y'all ever play the circle game? The one that they say is racist now

Johnny Cash kissed metal once, with a Soundgarden song.

I actually heard the sound garden song on the radio driving up to kelowna the other day and I was like holy shit are some stations getting not shitty.

Also omg johnny cash on the American label was so so so good.

Nah, man.

This is the theme of NES hockey.

Fuck yeah again

Also I was trying to find audio of rips the pass and I guess maybe it was with the pass. Or its the pass.

I always thought it was rips the pass.

Questionmarktarius posted...

Were I ever rich enough to buy a hockey team, this would be the official theme:

Arizona is on hard times This may be my chance!

I would just have a song that said rips the pass over and over but set to the sandstorm beat.

Or maybe I'd say fuck it and go with like fucking hostile.

Just ate some raw cookie and brownie batter, with me luck yall. Might end up meeting johnny in the hospital. Ima kick him if i do.

Back when I was a wee youngin we always licked that batter. We'd take that there spoon or mixer rod thingy and we'd lick up that there batter like nothin and no one ever said boo about it except bein grateful for that there sweet sweet batter.

I have never seen a tape measure in the US that didn't have both. The hell goes on in Canada?

Oh they have both.

But besides one production job I had ive never worked with metric in terms of the blueprints.

Questionmarktarius posted...

US resistance to Metric will remain a mystery, yet we've been using them both in the grocery store since the 1970s.

Grams is so much better in some cases even the stores can't resist it I guess. Lol.

But really that is the one thing to me that just stands put as the most glaring instance of American exceptionalism. Or the adversity to universal Healthcare. Not even the adversity itself but the arguments I see against it most of the time.

Questionmarktarius posted...

If you can do the basic math of 5cm is about 2in, you're good forever.

I have a mental block with that p much.

I know it technically, but with temperature or speed its intuitive pretty much. Even with measurements im fine unless its small scale.

I'm so much more used to imperial for weight and height on a smaller scale that my brain needs to work to convert those to metric.

Essentially if I'm building a house or weighing or measuring a person I'm way more comfortable with the imperial system, but for everything else I'm better with metric.

Huh. I just realized I put naysa then just went and copy pasted smackems and didn't even edit it.

But now that I am trying to edit it and its keeps being fucky I see smackems is correct.

KogaSteelfang posted...

I just choked on some pickle juice. That hurt.

Dill?

Questionmarktarius posted...

Carryover from the last one:

As a dumb American, I can do these conversions in my head, mostly because of booze, and because of that time I proposed a metric conversion of Dungeons & Dragons to WotC.

Metric can be fudged to imperial and back, if you know the simple guesses.
4L ~ gallon
1.5km ~ mile
1m ~ yard

C to F is a bit of algebra.

Growing up so close to the line I have a solid understanding of c to f. Weather forecasts here are typically in both. Or they were till not long ago. Now they mostly just toss Fahrenheit in during tourist season.

I'm good on litres and gallons cause of milk and gas.

But cm vs inches etc... I really struggle picturing that.

a-c-a-b posted...

Same.

I've always used inches.

Kilometers is the only one I really get.

I have no idea what my height in meters is without looking at my id. Like 1.8. 1.6? Something like that i think.

Imperial is better for smaller measurements imo.

Questionmarktarius posted...

106 cm are some absurd tits.

Fuck even as a Canadian my brain doesn't really comprehend cms cause we build in imperial and I was a carpenter for a long time.

Thinking about it yes. That is ridiculously large.

Naysaspace posted...

i love how civilized you all are about next topics.

on ice hockey it's a fucking ratrace

That's always been funny to me.

The earliest days of this topic mighta been a bit more like that but not much. Then we all got diplomatic then we kinda got to a point where it was mostly like we don't wanna fuck up the at list so we'd almost rather not lol.

You should.

Commonly used as slang for a woman whose breasts are 106cm.

That's... there's some questions to ask about that claim.

Anyone claimed making the next topic? If not I'll do it.

Fuck yeah.

MabusIncarnate posted...

Canuck you or a-c-a-b should make the new one, this one will be done tonight.

I'll do it but I just Googled 106 significance and I picked one to use.

And its dumb. So dumb. I feel like no one who hasn't posted on wtf too many anime forums would ever make the connection I found.

Computer science is entirely Dunning-Kruger. You always know just enough to wreck everything.

See i don't even know enough to know that so I'm like 3 steps back now. Lol

Questionmarktarius posted...

The irony here is that I won't monetize it.

Haachama showed us what happens when a vtuber can't monetize.

I don't know who that is but if you mean it in terms of the fact you can have more freedom to say wtf you want then yeah for sure I get that.

Questionmarktarius posted...

It's pretty easy to host your own shit, and Cloudflare seems to be the most "fuck it" webhost.
The way the internet works, you can still host your shit from a desktop PC, but we've mostly forgotten how.

I don't know shit about computers really. Like I know enough to be amazed at how incompetent a lot of people are but also I don't suffer from dunning Kruger and I'm aware I know fuck all especially in terms of hosting a website or programming or anything at all along those lines.

Had a p sick geocities page back in the day though.

Questionmarktarius posted...

I've been considering doing a "patriot" vtuber. The market is begging for that sort of thing.

That does seem like it could easily get enough views to monetize if not outright blow up.

Naysaspace posted...

Pseudonyms, dude. Naysa and Canuck Cowboy regail you about fending off 19 year old thots with a stick, what it's like to date profs, and boozing with other 35 year old students that all have something wrong with em. lol.

ofc that all changed when we went online for covid, its much less exciting these days.

Actually yeah... any of the good stories are about people so dumb they'd never figure it out even if they heard it. Lol.

Ive only been online so far. But practicum starts in March so ill actually meet some of these people. It'll be fun.

This one chick asked during orientation if its OK if she colors in class cause she likes coloring. Which pretty much set the tone for her ever since.

Our cameras are off more often than not anyways. Why would you ask that and what even is that?
