    The Super Dooper Canadian Thread (now with 47% more Canadian Bacon)

    I've never had American A&W to compare, but yeah, A&W Canada is one of my favourite burger chains, and anyone I know who HAS tried both seems to agree the difference is night and day. For me it sits in a tier all on its own, well above McDonalds but not *quite* alongside Hero Burger and Five Guys.

    We've probably discussed this here before but maybe not: Canadian A&W is a completely different company from American A&W, but licenses the same branding. And by all accounts, its a million times better.

    raisins get a bad rap. They're fine. They're just really disappointing when what you're expecting is a chocolate chip. But when we're talking butter tarts the only acceptable thing to garnish it with is a pecan.

    Soul I don't think I have anything to say that hasn't been said already. It really is absolutely beautiful.

    Aquaman Good god was it ever awful. People liked this? How terrible was Justice League that this seemed like adequate filmmaking to people in comparison? I feel bad for everyone involved in this movie, but perhaps most of all for the people who spent money to see it. Jason Mamoa rules as...

    PATH is impossible to navigate, but I don't know how anyone could visit the city and not accidentally stumble in to it at some point.

    Also, ORESKABAND. An all girl Japanese ska band. I don't understand their language, and yet, they are speaking my language

    What are you listening to II: Electric Bogaloo

    It's my birthday, and I'm pissed drunk coming off a night of D&D, and I just realized I haven't blessed you all with Bite Me Bambi yet. They're real newcomers, but this year, despite the pandemic, they've beemn incredibly productive and cemented themselves as a favourite for me.

    Well, despite the extremely low chances of it happening, I was WHAMMED. Wife and I were dropping the kiddo off at her grandparents' for the day. Started up the car and my All Ska-nadian Club Vol 2 CD started playing, which my wife is not a fan of. So I went to replace it with her Elvis Presley...

    I like my chances this year what with all retail being shut down and all social events cancelled due to a global pandemic.

    I presume were talking about the much higher rates of COVID cases in Ontario compared to the rest of the country, and the answer's extremely simple: population density. Even most of Ontario is low in case numbers compared to the GTHA. It is a lot easier to social distance when you live in a...

    Bill and Ted Face The Music Perfect bookend to the series. I love Excellent Adventure and Bogus Journey, and this delivered in a big way. It wasn't a rehash of the same story or the same gags, but it kept enough of elements from the first two to provide the required fan service of a 30 year late...

    Great marketing or greatest marketing?

    It's kinda clever, but ultimately its the same as every other corporation slapping a rainbow on their packaging and pretending they're an LGBT ally for 30 days.

    What, no Pokemon Go thread?

    I've said this before, but this time I'm done with this game for real. In the last week I've done 12km of running and 5km of walking, all with Pokemon Go open, and yet my egg has only recorded 1.7km. They've done some update to how it logs your distance travelled, and it's literally recording my...

    Coronavirus Thread

    If I'm travelling somewhere by car, I'm connecting my bluetooth to the car. If I'm walking, I'm connecting to my wireless headphones. In either case, you know I'm too lazy to disconnect and reconnect everytime I need to enter a building. That bluetooth is on at least until I get home.

    Back to the topic at hand: Canada's Contact Tracing App finally came out, and someone postred this at work. Apparently these things don't need GPS data at all? https://ncase.me/contact-tracing/
