    [NHL] 2018-2019 Season: The Rise of Gritty

    The more I think about it, the more I like this idea. Lets make some BOLD-ASS predictions! Tampa takes the President's Trophy Leafs make the final, beating Tampa in the conference final Nashville takes the cup Leafs finish regular season with 3 players over 80P (Mathews, Tavares and Marner)...

    The Random Crap Thread 2: It Hits the Fan.

    Yeah, A&W in Canada is very good. It's in a special tier of burger restaurants. I'd say it ranks similar to Harvey's. Below Hero Burger and Five Guys, but way above Burger King, McDonalds and Wendy's. It's also the only place in Canada where you can get the Beyond Meat vegan burger patty.

    Negative. The best burger in the world is made from bison meat and you get it from the Pow wow held on the Chippewa reserve in my home town.

    Rant VIII: The Reckoning

    You're making a lot of assumptions about the number of thumbs people have Maybe that's why they needed someone else to do all this IT work.

    I made the same joke when I first saw it.

    [Movies] The DC Cinematic Universe - The David Zazlav Dumpster Fire.

    I will watch it on one condition also: It is available on a plane during a long flight and I'm just not that interested in the other entertainment available.

    [NHL] 2018-2019 Season: The Rise of Gritty

    Nothing else in this sport matters now that we have Gritty, the Philadelphia Flyers' new mascot / the angel of death.

    [Movies] MCU: Phase 3 And Beyond

    Captain America only had about 9 lines in the first cap trailer. It was mostly Tommy Lee Jones talking. This is pretty common in superhero movies.

    [NHL] 2018-2019 Season: The Rise of Gritty

    Seems a bit early to be calling your shots, but I can't be all that mad. I'd love for the Leafs to make it to the conference finals.

    [NHL] 2018-2019 Season: The Rise of Gritty

    Pre season has officially begun so I think it's time for a new thread. A quick summary to get us started: Karlsson is a Shark, Tavares is a Leaf, Yzerman is mysteriously stepping down, the Caps apparently broke the cup doing keg stands, and Ottawa is in the dumpster, which is on fire and...

    What are you listening to II: Electric Bogaloo

    Been really into the Doped Up Dollies (and Big D and the Kids Table feat the Doped Up Dollies) lately.

    I'm in Canada

    I will ALWAYS recommend the Steam whistle brewery tour to anyone visiting Toronto. Love that brewery. Pay the price of a six pack. Get a beer while you wait. A beer at the start of the tour, a beer at the end of the tour, and a six pack to take home. Good deal. It's right across from the...

    The Random Crap Thread 2: It Hits the Fan.

    I only heard it for the first time last week. Also, I had put the punchline in spoiler tags in the same post but it didn't show up. Still there if I go to edit post.

    Minor victory thread

    I got my computer to finally turn on and to complete its updates. Turns out my wireless network card was incompatible with windows 10, and that causes the system to freeze when performing updates on boot up. So this is a really minor victory because the only way to get internet on my computer...

    [Movies] Talk about the last movie you saw 2: Electric Threadaloo

    Star Wars episode VIII: The Last Jedi I don't know why this got so much hate. It's not without its problems, but overall I felt it was a great change of pace for the franchise. It is, as I was warned, the "least star wars-y" of the franchise, but, as I predicted, that was a strength. I liked...

    What are you listening to II: Electric Bogaloo

    No. We've mixed it up with other bands, for sure. She is a pretty chill baby overall, and seems to like most classic rock, honestly. But she seems to really like Tom Sawyer and I'm not sure what it is about that song in particular that she gravitates to. The only other songs that have the same...

    One of the ways we calm our baby down when she's crying is to play "Tom Sawyer" by Rush. This has in turn meant that more Rush in general gets played in the house. She responds well to most Rush songs. The only one she does not seem to like is YYZ. I guess the Morse code drumming at the start is...
