Winter 2021 LC Thread—I Want Sous Vide

One of my friends is really into solo camping, which is kind of a version of this. He’ll pack up his stuff, hike into the Ontario provincial park back country sites, and camp for a few nights. I think the solitude, quiet, nature, and severance from technology is really refreshing in a meditative way.

Love of pets is legit as hell and nobody should be shamed for it. I would do just about anything for my dog.

And honestly you shouldn’t even be in that situation, the blame for that situation goes to our evil capitalist oligarchs and the media for brainwashing the people to vote against universal healthcare.

I’ve been wanting to try this for awhile. I already do lots of camping but usually at big parties lol. Solo camping just being in nature sounds amazing. Probably really hard though, I’m on the internet at work or at home for like 80% of my life O.O

Where did you eat? Trying to think of close burbs with mainstreet type areas that might not have much parking. Hopkins?

At least the food was good, you can usually park in that bus station lot on the backside

All public lots and street parking on main street was full had to park on residential street 1/4 mile away who knows. And at least we didn’t get food placed on the back of my hand this time? And no dry ice in sight? Yeah its one of those places.

Fingertip now completely black/blue this morning but Ill spare you all a picture unless you know you’re into that, hmu.

They get lawyer letters and a lawsuit fairly soon after if they aren’t genuinely cooperative. It’s basically a slam dunk trademark/trade dress case.

edit: have now read it’s on Mohawk reservation in Canada, aka site of the “Kanawake Gaming Commission” and various “troubles” with the canadian govt. Still, if any of that stuff is shipped or moves through the mails, I’d think PepsiCo or whomever could get it confiscated. If it crosses borders into the US, I’d think it’d be relatively simple.

Thanks for the detailed writeup. This helps me understand much better the range of these things and what they are and aren’t about.

I busted out laughing at this but also, what the actual fuck. Is the reptilians thing true? These people are extraterrestrials.

Depends… who is she marrying this time?

Shelley ain’t writing a poem about the crumbling statue of some accountant with a happy family and a bunch of fulfilling hobbies.

Makes you think.

Oh yeah, we’re doing this again.

He’s overspending imo

With that mortgage, the price of the apartment should be in the $4M to $4.5MM range (assuming 10% to 20% down payment). That’s definitely possible for new construction condos in good locations.

But it’s easy to spend a lot less on a nice 3BR apartment in so-called prime locations.

I know a guy who whenever he sees £10 or £20 notes he instantly sets them on fire. His monthly expenses are enormous.
