Subject: Ask Slowpoke or Press B to Cancel

Written By: 2001 on 03/15/16 at 3:04 pm

I'm evolving!

I was always a bit too shy to make one of these, but I think I'll give it a shot. Ask and Slowpoke will roll around at the speed of sound to answer.

When I was a teen, I liked listening to rock and metal, and even got into some foreign Scandinavian, French and Japanese stuff.

In my latter teen years and now early 20s, I love any song that can make me dance. :)

Have you stopped 'warming up' and finally accepted my theory as the one true theory?

Why do you like real 00s Emo when 2000/2001/2002 emo is clearly superior?

What albums off of my big list have you listened to?

What videos off my big list have you viewed?

Dashboard Confessional. Pretty rad, eh?

I had a parrot, but he passed away when I was six. I miss him. :(

I've always believed in global warming.


Why do you like real 00s Emo when 2000/2001/2002 emo is clearly superior?


Real 2000s emo gives me the feels. Early 2000s emo doesn't feel serious.


What albums off of my big list have you listened to?


All the Jimmy Eat World ones (but not the EPs because they're not on Spotify), all the Lit ones, and I think one of the Ataris' ones. I just made a playlist out of all of them instead of listening to them one by one. My favourite one so far is Love Song by Allister.


What videos off my big list have you viewed?


Whoops! I forgot about that thread. I've watched all of them except in your latest post. I told you you should make a playlist! I'll try to listen it today or tomorrow when I have time.


Dashboard Confessional. Pretty rad, eh?


Yes, they're pretty good. :) I actually saw a Top 40 emo bands list by Rolling Stone. You won't like it much since its definition of emo is pretty liberal, but it had bands like Sunny Day Real Estate, Rites of Spring, The Promise Ring (which was on your list), and I made a playlist out of it for listening too. It's been a slow burn for me though, because whenever a Fall Out Boy song plays, I repeat it at least 10 times.

Why is the first thing on this list the second Used album!? That's a terrible, terrible album!! The first one is good 1998 styled Post-Hardcore in the vein of Refused, Keepsake and Poison the Well but In Love and Death is made for MySpace!

I like how they added Moss Icon, Embrace, the first Brand New and Taking Back Sunday records (listen to these both in one go. It's like a Hip Hop feud but with early 00's Emo bands), Indian Summer, etc., etc. Good real Emo from the 80's to early 00's but they ruin it with Riot and crap.

Sunny Day Real Estate may have started it but Jawbreaker's Dear You took it a step further and basically created the early 00's sound you hear with JEW and Dashboard.

1998-2002 sounds like bad times. They'll make time travel movies above stopping 1998 from happening.

I was hoping you'd catch my joke about Allister! >:( ;D I've actually listened to their stuff before, their 2005 album though LOL

I'll definitely get around to listening to all these albums... soon... the Playlist is 94 hours long...

I would argue that the Clear Skies Act, while introduced in 2003, did not get signed into law until 2005, which shows that 2004 actually has a lot in common with the early 2000s. All things considered, 2004 is closer to 1998-2002 than it is to 2009-2012.

Then I argue that before 2003, Fall Out Boy sounded like New Found Glory's (more) awkward younger brother and Emo meant your band sounded like a copy of Dear You and wore sweater vests. In 2003 they sounded like a real 00's band and Emo meant "When I see the kids with the black hair in their face that are really white with really tight shirts on with little starts on them i think to myself 'hey that kid looks kinda emo'" (real forum post from 2003) proving that 2004 is closer to 2009-2012 than to 1998-2002.

Other interesting Pokedex entries:

Ruby/Sapphire: SLOWPOKE uses its tail to catch prey by dipping it in water at the side of a river. However, this POKéMON often forgets what it’s doing and often spends entire days just loafing at water’s edge.

Yellow: Incredibly slow and sluggish. It is quite content to loll about without worrying about the time.

Episode 66: Slowpoke, the Dopey Pokémon. No one can tell when a Slowpoke is thinking, if it ever does think. Its specialty is fishing with its tail.

Episode 244: Slowpoke, the Dopey Pokémon. Slowpoke is always lost in thought though no one knows what it is pondering.

Silver: A sweet sap leaks from its tail's tip. Although not nutritious, the tail is pleasant to chew on.

The greatest emo single of all time was Helena from My Chemical Romance. It came out 2004. If we agree that the early 2000s were the greatest, then naturally 2004 has to be included so we can include the greatest emo song. Fall Out Boy's 2005 hit is also included. It rounds of nicely as Zelek would say. Early 2000s = 2000-2005.

I just listened to Fireman and Save Your Generation. I really like Fireman O0

They're really good I heard better garage rock in my neighbourhood in 2002. Hamilton > Burlington 4 lyf

Dude, no. Come on... Helena!? Have you heard Bullets? It's miles better! >:( Best Emo single... Man, that is a tough one... Probably something by the Movielife. Walking on Glass from 2002, before Emo died in 2003. Zelek would probably say "2004 and 2005 are like the Kenny G of the early 00's" and he would be correct.

I am glad you do! This is where Bleed American got it's sound from. That whole wave of Emo started with Dear You 100%.

I don't know. My memories of 1996/1997 are jumbled up. My first super-clear memory though is in the summer of '97 when I went to Amsterdam. We were outside the royal palace and there were a few guards outside, and they were standing stone still. I wasn't sure if they were statues or real people, so I tried tickling one of them. I noticed his eyes move, but my brother still wasn't convinced that he was human. I was about to bite his hand but my mom dragged me away.

Bullets by whom? Are you talking about their album? Zelek and everyone on YouTube seems to agree 2005 is early 2000s.

I liked The Reason 2005-2010 or so. 2005 is early 2000s. Those songs are great as is anything from Hamilton, but I liked the song I linked more lol.

Yeah! The album by My Chemical Romance from 2002 when Frank had dreads and Gerard had spiky hair. Zelek said he's rethinking his views of the "last good era" but he's always viewed 1998-2003 as the early 00's. I'm on YouTube but I make it a point to say "everything sucks after 2003." ;)

Sewing with Nancie run miles around The Reason and their lame brand of mid 2000's "rock". But I'm sorry, British Columbia smokes almost any band from Ontario. d.b.s., Gob, Brand New Unit, Manner Farm and Another Joe are some of the best Canadian bands. The song you linked was like listening to nails on a chalkboard... Man, Sewing With Nancie was at Warped 02 and they ruled.... :\'(

Yeah, of course! ;D But my words speak the truth. A truth that no one can deny.

True but Gob writes better songs than both of them and they're from B.C. ;) Also, I did say "almost." Simple Plan is from Quebec, do you guys still consider Quebec a part of Canada? My uncle says Quebecers are a bunch of "no good frogs."


Haha, that's kind of mean. ;D I speak shoddy French and Quebec makes the best Francophone music and TV shows, so I can't hate them too much.

I have to admit that Allister's Last Stop Suburbia is probably better than their 2005 album.  :(

I believe you're talking about fainting. If you ever faint, go to the nearest Pokecenter and Nurse Joy will heal you back to full health.

My uncle is a weird guy. Simple Plan made good music in 2002 so I may not know about them today but 2002 Quebec seemed cool.

Told ya'! It's their best work by far. Also, the Reason's first EP is their only good one. Why? Because it was recorded December 2002 (in Burlington) when they were still Sewing With Nancie so clearly they still wanted to make fast Skate Punk but with a more serious tone but then somebody hit them with the lame bombs in January 2003 and they changed their name.

Regional rivalry  :D BC is for hippies and Quebec is for frogs, as your uncle says. All the normal people live in Ontario. Except Burlington, only snobs live there.

Is it Take A Look At Yourself? I'm also liking Treble Charger. They're good Ontario boys unlike those Gob dirty BC hippies. Vancouver, Washington > Vancouver, BC. If you're gonna be a hippie city then at least have legal weed.  ::)

My uncle lives in Toronto. Like, actual Toronto, not the suburbs but he would probably agree with what you've said.

It's the Problem's Associated With Running EP. Take A Look At Yourself was from mid 2002 and released as Sewing With Nancie (it's also the one with One Time Use on it. Pure Pop Punk pretty much). Running is their only good one but I bet if it was recorded in 2003, it would suck. Treble Charger is incredible band! Oh man, I remember they were Canada's national Pop Punk mascots from roughly 1997 to 2003.

I used to live in Toronto from 2004-2011. Well, not downtown Toronto, but in East York. It was a 10 minute subway ride to downtown though, so it didn't feel far.

I'll take a listen, but it's not on Spotify  :( I might have to buy it with Google Play credit lol. I'm pretty sure Sum 41 was more popular after 2002 though. All the kids in school talked Sum 41 non-stop 2002-2005 from what I remember. ;D

Damn, that song's really good  :D BC is irrelevant.

I think he lives in like... North York, maybe? So he doesn't live downtown, though but he's pretty close. He's lived there before you guys got amalgamated in 1998. Oh yeah, he says people from Alberta are nasty rednecks and hicks. I know nothing about Alberta except for Nickelback but do you agree with this?

Oh no! Don't give Google (or the reason. You should buy Sewing with Nancie only) your money. I wish I had the CD 'cause then I could upload it (but first, I'd make a cover for the Sewing with Nancie edition). You sure? I'd say Sum 41's mainstream peak was probably from Makes No Difference in 2000 to the Hell Song in 2003 but they were still big throughout the crappy Chuck era.

Dude, BC's still pretty sick. Listen to this:

North York is awesome, it's become a lot more hip the past decade or so. I hang out there pretty often. And yeah, the stereotype of Alberta is them being rednecks. Slim95 is from there so I wouldn't say it too often ;D

But I get a 10% discount from Google because I have a Play Music trial until March 26 :D Yeah, they were popular from 2000 as well, but most people my age were too young to get into them, we were listening to NSYNC and Linkin Park. It was 2002ish when Simple Plan and Avril Lavigne came out, Sum 41 became popular with them.

Hmm, I'd still say Ontario wins. Treble Charger > Gob. Did you know people in BC pronounce duty like "doodie"? Gross, we're talking about responsibility not poop. In Ontario we pronounce it "dyutie". That's proper.

Yeah, there are a lot of hipsters there. 8-P But my uncle, the guy doesn't even notice! "Huh? I don't see that many Hipsters" but North York is littered with them! I might ask Slim and see what he says. My uncle doesn't like it there, nor does he like it up north (too cold).

The EP isn't that good, though. It's good but the actual Sewing With Nancie stuff is worth paying for! People my age caught on right in 2000 (me, on the other hand, caught on in 1999). :P But Sum 41 were already much bigger! Besides, they're like, the only Canadian band who didn't go on the "Try to Shut Me Up" tour in 2002-2003 with Gob, Simple Plan, Swollen Members (a god damn hip hop group!!!), Our Lady Peace, Autopilot Off, etc. Jesus, even her 2003 concerts were pretty edgy! Sum's success didn't get any bigger, though. Actually, I'd say by mid-late 2003, they started falling off and Simple Plan kinda followed to the point where they were big enough but not really in the spotlight anymore like 2000-2002. Deryck dating Paris Hilton in 2003 also screwed up their reputation with fans.

I dunno, man. Boarder-area Canada in general has an incredible Pop Punk scene. Ontario and BC are basically the hotspots but I gotta say, not too many good bands come from Toronto itself. They're always from the suburbs. That reminds me of that one Beavis and Butthead episode... Memories of Beavis and Butthead make me pretty happy, you know.

There are?? North York isn't too hipster to me. It's mostly just wealthy Asians now. It has a lot of good Korean and Persian restaurants. My old borough (East York) became infested with hipsters, but I was a hipster sorta (bike riding, coffee drinking, preppy-dressing, foreign cuisine eating etc.)  so I can't really complain. There's a huge weekend festival called "Taste of the Danforth", I think it's the third largest in Toronto now, and it pretty much brings all the hipster foodies that upload their food to Instagram before they eat it into the neighbourhood for the weekend.

I'm pretty sure Sum 41 was always more popular than Treble Charger, just by looking at how many charting singles they had. Sum 41 was still pretty huge here when they released Pieces. I remember that playing on Much Music non-stop, and all the girls fangirling.  ;D

Damn, I wish I was there.  :( Although it can do without Gob.

I think pop-punk bands don't come from Toronto because it's mostly apartments. You can't really make loud noises there.

What do you think about South Park?

Definitely not as bad as Downtown but the whole place seems to be infested with hipsters. Norcal/Socal are pretty bad as well but I think Toronto has waaaayyy more. Oh yeah, I've heard of that. My uncle goes every year and he said the Greek food is the greatest over there. I can't agree or disaggre as I've only had stuff from your guys Mr. Greek chain (it's not bad).

Yeah, they totally were but Treble Charger invoked some weird sense of pride from you guys. They were Canada's sweethearts! You see, that is a different Sum 41. That's not the band who released Half Hour-Infected. ;) They still definitely weren't as big. Pop Punk had such a huge, huge explosion from 1998 to 2002 that 2003 started to wind down into crappy faux-Emo. Man, that sucked.

Dude, Gob rules. :o Look at how mean and tough people in 2002 the 90's were. Man, those Gob guys are Hardcore:

I would of gone just to see those bands but I really didn't wanna see Avril live.

Yeah, that's the truth. It's always the smaller towns with the best scenes.

I love it! It kinda fell off for a while but the PC Principal season was totally hilarious. "BRO YOU THROW DOWN!? I'M PC!! PC! PC!"  My favorite episode is probably the one when they find the Lord of the Rings tape and Butters goes all Golem. You're probably asking because of the movie, ehh? Blame Canada! ;) I saw that in theaters.

Really? I always thought San Francisco was the birthplace of the hippies/hipster.  :o  I remember my friends who moved to Vancouver complaining about manbuns in 2013 while I didn't see my first until 2015. If I had to pick the most hipster cities in North America, it would probably be 1) Portland, 2) San Francisco, 3) Vancouver, 4) Seattle, 5) Toronto ;D

I was too young to witness their popularity  :( Looking at Wikipedia, Sum 41's best selling album was their 2007 one (Underclass Hero), which is surprising to me.  ;D I would've thought it would be their 2004 one ;)

It seems people got more hardcore after 2004. And you call us pansy...

Avril was there?! 2003 Avril?! Where's my time machine!  >:( (she sucks live though...)

LOL I can't lie I actually like that song.  ;D I used to watch it as early as 7 years old. The "gingers have no souls" episode was really popular in my neighbourhood. I thanked my parents everyday for not giving me red hair.

I think it is. San Jose is has quite a bit but San Francisco has a whole ton since it's the "tech capital" and all. Silicon Valley is a funny place but I think the concentration of Hipsters in one place is higher in Toronto, specifically downtown. You're probably right about Portland, Seattle and Vancouver having more but I'd but Seattle at number 2 (Grunge, y'know).

Wait... Was it really? That's one's the worst! I thought All Killer and Infected would be. Wow... They still fell off about 2003. You guys did go pansy in 2004! Hardcore? In 2002, the Sums make a semi-serious album (with still a lot of jokes and rapping) with a loud Metally-Pop Punk sound. In 2004, they make some wussy faux-Emo album. Hawthorne Heights are the biggest babies, too. Stop crying you wimps! Be men!

Dude, she headlined :P:

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/6a/Avril_tosmutourposter.jpg

I wouldn't know 'cause I've never seen her live but early-mid pre-Skin recording Avril was still somewhat decent, I guess.

I remember that was a huge thing. What was it called again, "kick a ginger day"? A lot of kids got in trouble for actually kicking gingers and crap. Kyle was a daywalker, that was funny but nothing beats that Lord of the Rings episode. That one's hilarious.

I'm pretty sure it was. Those Vietnam protests got started there. Or I might just be stereotyping the West Coat 'cause BC is known for being druggie land.

It looks weird. Wikipedia says Underclass Hero sold 1.3 million copies in Canada, while All Killer No Filler sold 300,000. But it also says AKNF is 3x Platinum (300k+) while Underclass Hero is only Gold (between 50k and 100k in sales).

But in 2004 the teen pregnancy went higher, which means we were getting laid.

And damn, that sounds like the greatest time ever  :D I totally would have went.

I'm listening to a few Bad Religion songs right now. They're pretty good. :D

Oh man, yeah. Vancouver has always been known for being a "Heroin Capital" but I think Seattle has the most hipster in North America.

Well, Killer sold 10,000,000 world wide, so it makes sense. Underclass also didn't make Platinum like Killer to Chuck did (why didn't Infected sell billions!?!?!) and it only shows CAN/JPN sales.

No way. Us 90's/2000-2002 teens go laid waaaayyyy more.

I would of if someone gave me a free ticket. The opening bands were super rad!

Oh sweet! What songs/albums? I definitely recommend Suffer and No Control (their two best).

Portlandia feels slightly more hipster to me than Fraisier, though Fraisier is a bit too early for hipstery yet still looks very hipster, so maybe you're right. Silicon Valley (TV show) is very hipster too though. I'm not sure which shows are set in Vancouver. Toronto has... Degrassi? It doesn't look too hipster ;D HGTV is super hipster though.

Canadian albums always sell well in Japan for some reason. Avril Lavigne for example sells the majority of her albums in Japan nowadays. That's why she made Hello Kitty. :o

Your chart says otherwise. It looks like kids born 1987 invented sex.

I was listening to their song "The Handshake". "You" was awesome too. Stranger Than Fiction and The Process of Belief seem to be their best album to me for now. You recommended like 6 albums from them though so I have a lot to listen to ;D

You keep spelling it like the food. :P The old Degrassi is definitely not hipster. Hell, neither is Next Generation. This new one seems very hipster to me, though. What's HGTV? I'd say for hipster concentration: 1. Seattle 2. Portland 3. San Francisco 4. Toronto 5. Vancouver

That's odd and disturbing (considering Hello Kitty, one of the worst songs on the planet). On the flipside, I know Billy Talent is huge in Germany but Treble Charger were only really big in the land of Canada. Gob had some success here but not much (while typing this I went to google and their Foot in Mouth Disease album sold well in Japan!).

No way! We had safe and responsible sex back then. Kids these days, on the other hand, are corrupt.

Those albums are really good (you know what they both have in common? They were both released in the 90's ;)). You is one of the best songs ever! Man, that's off No Control; you've gotta check the rest of that album out! If you like Process, you'll like that. It is a lot but it's a lot of quality! Bad Religion are one of the best bands ever.

Man, that's off No Control; you've gotta check the rest of that album out! If you like Process, you'll like that. It is a lot but it's a lot of quality! Bad Religion are one of the best bands ever.


LOL whoops  ;D

Haha, yeah, right in the first episode they have a guy wearing floral, and another dude wearing floral shorts! Toronto 2016 written all over it  ;D

Sounds like you guys aren't Xtreme! or #YOLO like we were.  8) Btw, that Rouge the Bat dude made another thread about wanting impregnate his 11 year old girlfriend, because he wanted kids early, like at 14 or 15. Dude was all-aroudn embarrassing.

I've listened to some more and I liked Summer Wind Was Always Our Song by The Ataris, Alien 8 by Plaidinum, and Stuck by Allister.

Yeah, it's perfect for you and your 2010's loving generation! I, on on the other hand, will stick with the original as it is the best.

I always thought florals were ugly, but those guys wear them really well. Floral shorts sound like a good idea. It's like the 2010s equivalent of getting a 70s perm for the disco. Your kids or nephews are going to be asking you Where were you when this was happening?

Having a pompadour, wearing a floral shirt and skinny jeans, and brown pointed leather shoes will get you way more ladies.

Whoops. In my defence, Plaidinum is a way better band name. It will be a 2010s 90s-revival band  8)

Frosted tips, chain wallets, blink-182 shirts and a discman with a Sum 41 CD is a surefire way to attract some nice women. A pompadour is the best way to get a black eye.

I don't know. My memories of 1996/1997 are jumbled up. My first super-clear memory though is in the summer of '97 when I went to Amsterdam. We were outside the royal palace and there were a few guards outside, and they were standing stone still. I wasn't sure if they were statues or real people, so I tried tickling one of them. I noticed his eyes move, but my brother still wasn't convinced that he was human. I was about to bite his hand but my mom dragged me away.

It's still a *do you want to have for me.  ;)

I first majored in Physics not really knowing what I wanted to do, probably med school or get a PhD and work in research. Quantum Physics really fascinates me. After 2013 though, I started learning how to code and discovered I was really good at it. Whenever I have a life problem, I almost always think about how I can solve it with a computer, it's pretty freaky in a sense. "How do I keep in touch with my friends?" --> "Write a program that prompts me to send a text from my computer if I haven't talked to a friend in a while." Crank that up to a 1000. I started double majoring in both Physics and Computer Science two years ago, I'm in my last year in Physics and taking mostly 2nd/3rd year courses in CS.

I feel much more natural in Computer Science, so I'm leaning towards a career in that field. A lot of my friends are thinking about starting their own start-ups, but I feel like getting a Masters and possibly a PhD in Computer Science, especially on the topic of artificial intelligence or automation, but my interest in Physics has been re-ignited lately thanks to the discovery of gravitational waves and me subscribing to Science Magazine. I'm still not 100% sure as to my career path.

It depends on your sense of humor. To me it's irreverent, cheeky Canadian humor but with a really crude and vulgar edge to it, and for that reason I love it. There's some great comedic acting in it, my favorites being Ricky and Mr. Lahey.

It's certainly not for everyone, I can see how a lot of people might think it's stupid.

My original question was a bit in jest, but to clarify: If you ever decide to watch an episode or two, then I'd like to know your opinion on how well it parodies redneck/white trash culture in Canada.

Oh my God loooooool I just watched an episode from the latest season. I loved it!  ;D ;D ;D It reminds me a lot of a show I used to watch called "Little Britain" except that was about British working class (and posh people), but this Trailer Park Boys was 10x better.

The drugs are spot on LOL. Reminds me a lot of the city I grew up in (Hamilton). The rest has a nugget of truth but exaggerated for comedic effect, but I still loved it.  ;D

British Columbia/The Rockies. There are some nice resorts out there with beautiful views, and peaceful nature. Vancouver has tons out of outdoor activities, kayaking, skiing, hiking, boat-riding etc.

http://www.fodors.com/world/images/destinations/704318/british-columbia.jpg

In my neck of the woods (Ontario) the terrain is more flat, but there are still a lot of cliffs and waterfalls in Niagara Region (which includes my hometown of Hamilton :D). You can do a lot of the same hiking, biking, kayaking and fishing there. It's famous for wine too! I mean, it's not Napa Valley or Bordeaux or anything, but it's decent. ;D

Favorite color?


You asked the wrong question! Start taking notes ;D

I like wearing red, orange and yellow. Those are my power colours and they leave a strong impression. I guess, depending on the day, either red or orange are my "favourite" colours.

Blue and white (and green, to a lesser extent) are effective for when I want to project a more conservative and approachable image. Royal blue and indigo are especially effective in professional settings; my royal blue tie is my "lucky tie". My blue and white plaid shirts are also some of my favourites, they look really good in the summer.

Yellow is also great as an approachable, "sunny"/friendly colour, but it's not very conservative. It's better in casual settings, especially when you expect to meet new people or make new friends. Orange is also approachable to the more extroverted types, but it repels others.  Yellow and green are really good at bringing out the brown in my eyes.

I love neon colours: neon blue, neon green, neon orange etc. They're not at all professional, so when I wear them I have no expectation to be taken seriously. But they definitely project a casual and extroverted image. My neon green shoes easily get me the most compliments (my dark orange/red shoes come in second), I've had people stop me in the middle of the street to compliment me several times. Neon colours are my party colours. ;D

Black is also a very important colour. You have to know how to use it effectively, it's the secret to good fashion sense. I dislike dressing in all-black, but black can be very effective in putting a much stronger emphasis on the above colours, and really bringing them out. Other than that, I have a few black dress shirts for semi-formals.

Grey looks good on winter clothing (coats, jackets, gloves, toques, scarves etc.) and is a 'safe' colour overall. I wear it when I don't feel like thinking too much about my clothes that day. It can also mix well with the above colours, but it's not a colour I'm known for relying on.

The last colour is pink (and light purple), the dangerous colour! To me when worn by a guy, it represents youth and sexuality (and being comfortable with it). I wear it when I feel sexy and want all eyes and attention on me. ;D

There's no strict and fast rules for browns and purples, I judge those on a case-by-case basis. Brown or khaki coloured trousers are a must in any wardrobe though.

Also, if you're LGBT, never be afraid to use the rainbow (it makes for a cool armband). You'll get hit on all the time. ;D

That's all for today's lecture! ;D


Favorite game console?


Probably the Nintendo DS. The Nintendo 64 is a close second with the Playstation 2 not far behind.


Favorite sports?


I liked watching soccer/football when I was a young teen, but I'm too busy nowadays to follow anything. I watch basketball or hockey sometimes if my friends are watching, but I usually have zero idea what's going on.


Favorite food?


Oooh, this is hard to pick, I like a bit of everything, but I especially like spicy food that sends me to the hospital for first degree burns.

The past few months, I've been addicted to this dish they call "General Thai chicken" at a Thai chain restaurant that's popular in Toronto. Mmm!

https://s3-media1.fl.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/JMbuhGEv1Ki1U1gMtl6jDQ/o.jpg

I'm also very addicted to Szechuan chicken. This leaves me on the toilet for hours, but it's so worth it!

http://cookdiary.net/wp-content/uploads/images/Szechuan-Chicken_16951.jpg

Other than that, if we're talking about my mom's cooking, I don't know what it's called in English but there's this Indian dish called pilau (rice mixed in with broth, with meat and potatoes added) and green peas. Dump a spicy curry chicken on it and I'm in heaven (after I die from heat stroke). ;D

https://image.shutterstock.com/z/stock-photo-indian-chicken-dansak-with-bombay-aloo-potato-curry-and-pilau-rice-85318291.jpg

This kind of "casual racism" is pretty normal in Toronto unfortunately. The only scandalous thing is how rude and loud she was being about it.

Torontonians are not a confrontational bunch. As you can see when that lady is hurling racial abuses, most the staff are keeping their head down. That's the normal reaction to racism here. When she was causing a scene and making herself the centre of attention is when it got too much for people.

Hmm, not really. I have a lot of friends that made similar comments. If they have a terrible Asian doctor, they usually blame the race or their foreignness and say they're going to look for a white doctor next time.

And it's not just white people who do that sadly. I'm just hoping over time people will get over it. 80-90% of the doctors are Asian so good luck finding a white dude ;D

It's shocking how honest people can be ;D

The first time I heard it, it was in high school, it was white guy with pizza face, he told me he went to a Chinese dermatologist, and apparently he wasn't any good and had a thick accent, so he said he was going to look for "Canadian doctor" next time. I just said "yeah, you should keep trying"  :-X And then he started ranking doctors by races ;D

The other time, I can't remember what it was, but she was misdiagnosed and she told me brown doctors were useless. She was brown too so I just said "yeah, some of them".

And this other time, my sister got cancer, and she was in a hospital that's top 10 in the world and world famous for that kind of stuff, but one of my friends still asked if my doctor was Canadian and whether he could speak English.  :o (she could, she was amazing).

And not related to doctors, but this was like a few months ago. I met this guy at an environmentalist volunteering thing, and we were taking the subway home together. He works as a pizza delivery guy, and I only just met him, but he felt comfortable enough to rank the races by how many tips they give.  :o I mean, maybe it's true, I think he should take it up with them instead of complaining behind their backs. But that's how people do things here. They avoid confrontation, and then b*tch behind closed doors.  :-X

(and I just realized, ironically, I'm doing it here too LOL)

That's... A nice back handed compliment  ;D

It's not too bad honestly. These people usually have one bad experience and blame the entire race, but usually multiple positive experiences (of which there are many — non-whites/immigrants are more educated than whites on average) tips it back the other way. It obviously not okay to blame an entire race for bad experience with one or few people though.

These are only a few people and not representative of the entire country. Canadians are still very kind and compassionate on average. I'm extremely thankful to be born here. I grew up in a 99% white suburb and I didn't even know I was non white until I was like 12 LOL. It's the only country where most people want to take in more Syrian refugees, the only Western country where a majority disagreed with Trump's Muslim ban, the country with the highest proportion of people saying immigrants are good for the economy etc. etc. There's a lot of feel good statistics. :P

I didn't mean it in that way....that was more for me than you or the rest of Canadians. I know that those people don't represent most Canadians and you're correct that it's ridiculous to put an entire ethnic background into a negative light just because you had a bad experience with one or few individuals of that background.

Oh and don't worry....Canada is high on my bucket list of countries to visit. I might visit Canada (most likely, Toronto) within the next 5 years....if I'm able to.

I've always had a fascination for the 1920s-1940s time period (and also some appreciation for the first two decades of the 20th century). The jazz music, the aesthetic, the fashion, the rapid improvements in technology, the social and economic transformations etc. are endlessly fascinating to me.

When it comes to modern decades, it's between the 1960s and 1990s for me, for different reasons.

The 1960s for the amazing music, and I can spend hours reading about all the social transformation that was taking place then. I also, for whatever reason, have an obsession with beehive and mod hair.  :-[

The 1990s for its video games. That was easily the greatest decade in gaming. I'm also a fan of a lot of the alternative rock from then.

I'm also appreciating 1980s video games more nowadays, especially NES, Sega Master System and PC Engine.

Haha, SimCity Societies was a bit of a let down. :P I don't remember it being released (I wasn't interested in SimCity at the time), but when I bought the game a few years later, I was pretty disappointed with it.

Have you created any city journals on Simtropolis?

1960s is modern to you?


Oh I remember I had an argument with Reignman about this ;D Yeah, my dad and a lot of my aunts/uncles were kids/teens then, so it feels like a recent decade. Same with the 1950s too, but to a lesser extent. I can't believe some parts of the 1960s are close to hitting 60. :o

Not the 1970s? :o

From the books I've read, any book set before 1920 seems like another world. After 1920, things start bearing some semblance to today (just a little bit). Anything post-WW2 is a part of this larger era (I think we're living in what historians will call "post-WW2" or Elizabethean era). Anything 1960s or after still has a huge effect on the world we live in today. Anything after 1990 may as well be yesterday in the grand scheme of things. That's how I see it.  8)

Ok. Yeah 1970s is sort of in the Middle. To me the 1960s are quite old and are basically a part of the mid century, the 1970s somewhere in between but still somewhat connected to today. However the 1980s is the oldest decade in which I feel is actually modern and still somewhat relevant today......

At least to me, the 80's seem much more recent then the 60's.

No, not on Simtropolis. I had a separate blog, where I wrote about other things but also posted my city journal on it. I would link it, but the "story" I attached to my journals are too childish and embarrassing  :-[

Do you have a city journal there? I think I might get back into it, with hopefully more realistic stories LOL.


I do, but for whatever reason, most of the pictures from my journal entries are missing. I think I may have uploaded them as attachments and since Simtropolis has undergone several design changes, they may have been removed.

I just the watched the entire PBS documentary on The Vietnam War and it's a freaking masterpiece.

Based on watching that documentary and looking at other pictures and videos of the 1960s and 1970s...I definitely feel that the 1960s and 1970s are modern. They aren't recent but they are certainly modern. I think that when many people think of "modern" they almost always think about technology only and that is not 100% of what modern is or means. Technology plays a big factor but it is NOT the only factor.

I've always had a fascination for the 1920s-1940s time period (and also some appreciation for the first two decades of the 20th century). The jazz music, the aesthetic, the fashion, the rapid improvements in technology, the social and economic transformations etc. are endlessly fascinating to me.

When it comes to modern decades, it's between the 1960s and 1990s for me, for different reasons.

The 1960s for the amazing music, and I can spend hours reading about all the social transformation that was taking place then. I also, for whatever reason, have an obsession with beehive and mod hair.  :-[

The 1990s for its video games. That was easily the greatest decade in gaming. I'm also a fan of a lot of the alternative rock from then.

I'm also appreciating 1980s video games more nowadays, especially NES, Sega Master System and PC Engine.

Layers and proper materials :P

Under-garments (thermal undershirt and underwear+long-johns/tights) should be slapped on first. They should be wool (best) or polyester, NOT cotton.

You can wear whatever shirt on top, but obviously the more wool/polyester/synthetics and layers the better. Depending on what you wear, you can get away without wearing a coat/sweater if it's above 0C. If below 0C, then wear a coat/sweater, if below -5C/-10C (depending on the shirt(s) you wear), then wear a jacket.

For legs, jeans/dress pants will be fine you by as long as it's above -20C, if it drops below that, you're going to need a jacket that covers your legs too. Sweatpants insulate better, but imo it's still a bit scandalous to wear that in public but some people have no shame.  :-X

For hands, non-wool (usually polyester) sports gloves when it's above 0C. Wool when it's below. Mittens when it's below -20C.

For feet, wool socks only. You need proper boots to walk on snow/ice. Flat shoes = flat face.

For face, I put on a scarf when it drops below -10. I wrap it around my face/nose if it feels cold. For my ears, my giant headphones do the trick, but you can wear a toque or earmuffs. If you're bald, definitely go for the toque.

If it's really windy and below -20C, you should really wear sunglasses, but I don't. Dry eyes are pretty irritating though.

Alternatively, just stay inside and never go out. That's what a lot of people do.

Also, don't forget your sunscreen. srs

I've never soldered anything before. Do you think I should? Is it useful to know?

I've made a few electronic contraptions with an Arduino. The first one was a group project for one of my Physics courses. We made an electromagnetic field sensor, and it had a GPS attached to it (which didn't work so well so we used our phones). My group partner was a conspiracy theorist about electromagnetic fields causing cancer, so we went out into the field on to the middle of a power-line corridor to measure how strong the electromagnetic fields are under it and away from it (not much once you get far enough...).

The second one was for an Computer Science/Engineering course. We had to basically make a small rover that could drive itself out of a maze-like track fast enough. A sort of proto-self driving car. It finds out where to go by crashing into the wall, want to take a spin? ;D

My last one was an pressure-sensitive morning alarm, it was a hobbyist project. I had a bad habit of waking up, turning my alarm off and going back to bed. I made an alarm that would measure the pressure when I was on my bed, sound the alarm, and it would stop once it detected I got out of bed. If I went back to bed within 1 hour of the alarm, it would ring again. It didn't work as intended though (would at times stop sounding while I was still in bed or would sound when I wasn't on it).

I disassembled it and was about to make an alarm with an IR blaster to turn on my TV at the set time, but I found a way to do this with my phone (with a built-in IR blaster) instead. :P

My 2017 resolution was to build more Arduino/Raspberry Pi contraptions. I didn't really get to doing it though  :-\\ Perhaps instead of buying the Garmin I was thinking of buying for my bicycle, I might make my own speedometer/odometer. That might be a cool summer project, maybe I'll solder it onto my bike (probably not) :P

I've only soldered once, and that was in junior high when we made tool boxes out of sheet metal and used solder to seal off the corners. But I've never attempted to do any soldering on any kind of delicate electronic components, and I'm thinking about trying to tackle a DIY electronic project. I thought there was a chance that you might have done it at some point in your studies and maybe I could get some pointers from you.

But it might be a good skill for you to learn as well and you might enjoy it. I'll probably just take some classes from YouTube University.  ;D

I'm thinking about building a Surfy Bear spring reverb tank, which is an external reverb unit that plugs into a guitar amplifier.  Basically it's a reverse-engineered clone of a Fender Reverb Unit,  which was built in the early 1960s and can be tuned to have a certain "drip" effect used in surf rock instrumentals of that era.

An original Fender Reverb Unit goes for upwards of $800 on eBay,  and there are pedals that try to digitally recreate the drip effect but they don't sound the same. However, the Surfy Bear comes very close to the Fender, and the only major difference is that the Surfy Bear uses transistors while the Fender uses vacuum tubes. Both use springs to generate the reverb.

From what I've read, if I order the DIY electronic kit from Surfy Bear and the other components (the spring mechanism and something to encase everything in; a lot of people use tool boxes) elsewhere, I should be able to build one for right around $100.

As I mentioned I've never tried to solder together electronic components before, and I just want to make sure I know what I'm doing before I try this.

Montréal is like a modern French/Quebec city and Québec City is like a historical city, although there's a lot of history in Montréal as well. If you ever wanted to go to a European-style historical city for cheap then Quebec City is it :P

Also, Montreal is a French city when you want it to be and an English city when you need it to be, but Quebec City is 100% French and it's noticeable in the cultures of the city as well.

For Indian, I guess we have enough Indian restaurants that we get specific types instead of general Indian restaurants; this breakfast place near me has the best puri with aloo chana. That's what I always get, but really a restaurant is best judged by how well it does its chicken curry and white rice, and make is spicy as possible lol.

The coffee tastes like ash, and the baked goods are very chewy and bland, very obviously refrozen and heated rather than baked fresh. You can easily walk 5 minutes in any direction and go to a vastly superior coffee shop.

I'll say though I do like some of their iced beverages, like the Chocolate Chill, but they're ULTRA sugary, really once or twice an entire summer kind of treat.

It's all very confusing, even to me, so it's hard to say what I thought ;D I grew up in a religious household and didn't think of things in terms of "sexual orientation", and I also repressed my sexuality in general (whether towards men or women) because sex is evil, so my thoughts on sex in late childhood/early teen years are completely incoherent :P

But I had a boyfriend (or friend that I would have sex with...) when I was 11. I felt a bit guilty about it, but I didn't think much of it in terms of whether that made me gay or straight.

I know for sure I tried to kindle an attraction towards women many times to complete failure. :-[ But that was when I was 15+

A more apt comparison would be Downtown Toronto (800 thousand) vs. Manhattan (1.6 million). The City of Toronto includes Downtown Toronto and its inner suburbs.

I know.

NYC is a congregation of 5 boroughs. Each borough is different from the other.

NYC is really Manhattan when it comes down to it. In fact up until 1898, Manhattan was "The City of New York"/"New York City" by itself.

I know that, I can name the 5 boroughs lol. But it's all under New York City at the end of the day isn't it?

Downtown Toronto was just "The City of Toronto" once. Its inner suburbs East York (where I used to live), North York, York, Scarborough and Etobicoke were all amalgamated with it to form the modern day City of Toronto in 1998.

In terms of percentages, San Francisco (21.4 per cent) is more Chinese than New York (3.5 per cent).

BTW, here's a copy-paste of the OP of the thread where Jeremy was revealed as a catfish: Drama Thread II (Revealing Jeremy to the Forum)
As you may know, we've had one of these before, with our beloved forum member bURN.

Now, certain events have taken place on this forum over the past few months, which led to the discovery of a rather prominent forum using a fake persona. This forum member was Jeremy. Many of you probably remember him for his pictures, such as the one in his leopard print bathrobe, his being crowned most handsome forum member, or just him being the straight jock. However, all of these things were fake. The person behind the pictures exists, but it's not who we thought it was.



Things first started getting strange in April. He was hosting ISC, a popular forum contest and preparing to give the results. He had given an impressive show, although certain aspects of it were greatly delayed. However, after pushing back the results, eventually he didn't come back at all. This was his last post in ISC, and after that he wasn't heard from again, and the official results of the contest were never recovered.

Quote Originally Posted by Jeremy  View Post

I know people already cancelled plans to see this, but would it be a major inconvenience if the results were moved to tomorrow?

Speculation on what happened soon after, much of which you can read in that thread. Some weeks later, it was discovered that nobody with the name we knew him as, Jeremy Collier, went to his university. Strange. However, it wasn't until June that the truth was uncovered.

It was discovered that "Jeremy's" e-mail address linked to some other places online. Including this post from an LGBT support forum. In addition, this post also linked him to many of his known interests on this forum.

Personal hobbies... well, I love music, mostly pop, indie, acoustic, music with a good hook, music with a piano or guitar, European stuff, ballads... I'm a HUGE gamer nerd... I like reading, I like writing... I'm not much of an athlete but I do love tennis... oh and I'm a BIG Major League Baseball fan, I follow it religiously and I wholeheartedly root for the New York Yankees.

Julio, and this username could also be found on other sites, including this one, which further links his name and username together. In addition, it was well known here that Jeremy spoke fluent French, which is confirmed by a post on Yahoo Answers.

Now that "Jeremy Collier" was identified as Julio, the mystery shifted to who the person was in the several pictures he posted on the forum. The extent of this virtual identity can be seen from his very first post on the Put Your Picture On thread:

Quote Originally Posted by Jeremy  View Post

Anyway, all of these pictures were from my vacation in the U.S. Virgin Islands in early August


My sister and I -- this was a couple of hours after we first arrived. The islands were beautiful


Scuba diving!!! My new obsession! I even got to touch that turtle


More scuba diving -- this time with a shark  Do not try this at home, ladies and gentlemen!


Fun at the beach... I got a horrible sunburn after though D:


I'm not much of a beach person


On the way back from the beach -- if my sunburn looked pretty bad then it was nothing compared to that night. btw that was a yummy fruit

And let's not forget one of the forum's most infamous pictures:

Quote Originally Posted by Jeremy  View Post

With what was known about Julio, the person behind these pictures was found. He turned out to be a classmate of Julio's in high school, and they graduated in the same year. Just as "Jeremy's" pictures suggested, this person, Mike, did travel a lot, and was athletic. Anyway, Mike was notified that somebody known online as Jeremy Collier was using his pictures, and pretending to be him. This was his reaction:



Why he spent years hiding his true identity, including his sexuality, on a very accepting forum is anybody's guess, but the facts remain, Jeremy Collier never existed.

Finally, a graduation picture was discovered, one which has both Mike and Julio, who is just behind him, in the background.



Feel free to discuss. It definitely makes it clear just how easy it is to deceive on the internet, although the motives for doing so can be extremely unclear.

Well, I might have. This Smash game is the second one I have missed out on in the last ten years. The first one was Brawl since I didn't have the game back then, and I only played that one once at a friend's house. The only two I played millions of times were the original and Melee. The series still kicks a*s though! :).

Oh you didn't miss out much with Brawl, you can trust me on that one. It was a huge downgrade from Mêlée in terms of the physics and gameplay. The main reason Smash U is good is because it's jam-packed with content while still having decent gameplay.

I bet you won't want to miss on Smash coming for Switch at the end of this year. ;)

OK, so that wasn't the only reason I felt bad for having this kinda attitude towards them at first.

https://i.giphy.com/media/xT9KVlquor5yqwECsw/giphy.webp

Apparently, what the guy did was really bad and affected them a lot. The guy was such a master manipulator and gaslighter and left them really confused, especially since it was all out of nowhere. Hole was apparently the resident SJW while everyone else around him loved black humor, and they never thought he was capable of saying racist and just plain disrespectful things, so the effect was magnified.

It might be fun if we leave it longer

He will slip up

You can bet your last dime



You're not asking for

A candid shot to prove it

Though I can almost give a guarantee



It's just so like Steve

A grudge that lasts forever

I'm only saying won't you

Open your eyes and see



It's got to be

Got to be Steven

Not AussieG

I'm sure

We've had our share

Of forum crazies

But I think that Olden

Beats them all



Steve's got some friends who say

He is not like that

And that we can't really prove a thing

 

I too once thought like that

 Steven's not that bad

 It must be parkus who corrupted his mind



Defended Steve before

But he's pissed that up the wall

Steve's such a fool he couldn't stop himself



He posted that gif of me

 Finally then I could see

It wasn't AussieG

 Woah

Some story based on that song from the website ukauthors.com, but which got lost in an error or something. I'm so glad I copypasted it to show it to some FB friends, or else it woulda been lost forever, or at least extremely hard to find :P: I Should Be So Lucky (PROSE WORKSHOP CHALLENGE) by Hazy (487 words) You haunted my dreams again last night. We strolled hand in hand down a pure white beach; sparklers danced beneath the shallow ocean. "I love you," you whispered, just before you kissed me. Only I awoke to find the cat licking my nose to tell me his breakfast was long overdue. Isn't it obvious that I love you? Couldn't you read it in my expression across the bar…hear it in my voice when I spoke to you… I guess not. So why does it feel as though it's tattooed across my forehead? I LOVE YOU. Perhaps you just need to open your eyes. They say what you're looking for is always right under your nose. And I don't mean the cat. It's not like I'm thinking marriage here. I should be so lucky! Just a date would suffice. Perhaps the cinema so I could snuggle up close. Or dinner, so we could feed each other strawberries across a white linen tablecloth. Of course, there'd be no expanding stains on it like in real life. One drop of chocolate sauce and five seconds later it's spread wider than a dinner plate. Surely you must know I'd come running if you'd only click your fingers. Snap. I'd be by your side quicker than a dog. Okay, maybe that's not the best analogy. I can't bear it when you turn up and virtually ignore me. Yes, you're polite and sweet enough, but I want more. Not just fleeting glances and hellos next to soggy beer mats and piss-covered peanuts. I'm not even sure you'd recognise me in the street. Please, just notice me. You'd fall head over heels; I know you would. We'd make the perfect couple. Okay, so I lied. I am thinking marriage. Our kids would have your thick, dark hair – God, I bet that'd feel so good between my fingers – and they'd have my green eyes; oh, and your dimples. How I love those dimples. So bloody cute. Do you know your eyes scrunch up tight when you laugh? Already, I'm worrying about you driving and someone beside you cracking jokes. I make a mental note never to make you giggle when our dark-haired, squinty-eyed, dimply kids are in the back of our Audi TT. Actually, I'm not sure that even has back seats. Well, that's scuppered that fantasy then! Perhaps I'll talk to you next time I see you. My heart will break if I don't say something soon. It already aches as I try and sleep at night, thinking about where your body would dent the mattress. Hollow depressions. Oh, I know all about those. Tonight though, I'm smiling. The last word you said to me was "love". I'll never sleep now. I'd batted my eyelashes and blushed as I spoke to you. "That'll be five pounds eighty, please." "Keep the change, love," you said as you handed me six quid for the drinks.

BTW, I posted a picture with a sign to prove I wasn't Hole. They still did not believe me though. Although given how much of an asshole the guy was, and the sheer fact said forum has a severe lack of new members, it's understandable why they're so paranoid anyway. And he apparently mocked the death of a member, that's what they were the most hurt by out of everything he said. I feel bad now for standing there and watching everything burn, I guess?
There's a song I connect to this entire situation. :P

BTW, here's a copy-paste of the OP of the thread where Jeremy was revealed as a catfish: Drama Thread II (Revealing Jeremy to the Forum)
As you may know, we've had one of these before, with our beloved forum member bURN.

Now, certain events have taken place on this forum over the past few months, which led to the discovery of a rather prominent forum using a fake persona. This forum member was Jeremy. Many of you probably remember him for his pictures, such as the one in his leopard print bathrobe, his being crowned most handsome forum member, or just him being the straight jock. However, all of these things were fake. The person behind the pictures exists, but it's not who we thought it was.



Things first started getting strange in April. He was hosting ISC, a popular forum contest and preparing to give the results. He had given an impressive show, although certain aspects of it were greatly delayed. However, after pushing back the results, eventually he didn't come back at all. This was his last post in ISC, and after that he wasn't heard from again, and the official results of the contest were never recovered.

Quote Originally Posted by Jeremy  View Post

I know people already cancelled plans to see this, but would it be a major inconvenience if the results were moved to tomorrow?

Speculation on what happened soon after, much of which you can read in that thread. Some weeks later, it was discovered that nobody with the name we knew him as, Jeremy Collier, went to his university. Strange. However, it wasn't until June that the truth was uncovered.

It was discovered that "Jeremy's" e-mail address linked to some other places online. Including this post from an LGBT support forum. In addition, this post also linked him to many of his known interests on this forum.

Personal hobbies... well, I love music, mostly pop, indie, acoustic, music with a good hook, music with a piano or guitar, European stuff, ballads... I'm a HUGE gamer nerd... I like reading, I like writing... I'm not much of an athlete but I do love tennis... oh and I'm a BIG Major League Baseball fan, I follow it religiously and I wholeheartedly root for the New York Yankees.

Julio, and this username could also be found on other sites, including this one, which further links his name and username together. In addition, it was well known here that Jeremy spoke fluent French, which is confirmed by a post on Yahoo Answers.

Now that "Jeremy Collier" was identified as Julio, the mystery shifted to who the person was in the several pictures he posted on the forum. The extent of this virtual identity can be seen from his very first post on the Put Your Picture On thread:

Quote Originally Posted by Jeremy  View Post

Anyway, all of these pictures were from my vacation in the U.S. Virgin Islands in early August


My sister and I -- this was a couple of hours after we first arrived. The islands were beautiful


Scuba diving!!! My new obsession! I even got to touch that turtle


More scuba diving -- this time with a shark  Do not try this at home, ladies and gentlemen!


Fun at the beach... I got a horrible sunburn after though D:


I'm not much of a beach person


On the way back from the beach -- if my sunburn looked pretty bad then it was nothing compared to that night. btw that was a yummy fruit

And let's not forget one of the forum's most infamous pictures:

Quote Originally Posted by Jeremy  View Post

With what was known about Julio, the person behind these pictures was found. He turned out to be a classmate of Julio's in high school, and they graduated in the same year. Just as "Jeremy's" pictures suggested, this person, Mike, did travel a lot, and was athletic. Anyway, Mike was notified that somebody known online as Jeremy Collier was using his pictures, and pretending to be him. This was his reaction:



Why he spent years hiding his true identity, including his sexuality, on a very accepting forum is anybody's guess, but the facts remain, Jeremy Collier never existed.

Finally, a graduation picture was discovered, one which has both Mike and Julio, who is just behind him, in the background.



Feel free to discuss. It definitely makes it clear just how easy it is to deceive on the internet, although the motives for doing so can be extremely unclear.
Jeremy used to be a bandwagon crush over at escforum.net, and when he was revealed as Mike, we created kind of a Mike fanclub.  ;D

It's like, for the most part, the people there no longer viciously fight with each other just like in the '00s, but they will break out the sass for people whom they think are low-quality posters.  ;D

Okay, he's kinda cute but not THAT cute. I can't stand gays with that much sass or who take their pop divas way too seriously. Before I'd say he was a 6.5/10 but with that disgusting attitude it's definitely 2/10. No more than a 3, perhaps a 4, not much more than that.... okay, I'd take the hate sex.
"No-one's jumping to my honour. If you look back at our conversation she took it to a disgusting level. But then why would you ever notice that, because despite my tolerant nurturing of you on here for 12 months you still chose to act in a way that i can only describe as "complete (I_am_a_loser_who_has_no_respect_for_women)" as a response. You two fudgeing nut jobs are welcome to each other. Maybe you can play mother and son."
From the thread I PM'd. Look at the last sentence. Combined with all the tags shipping me with that guy, talk about a brand new addition to the Popedia family tree. As mother-in-law.  ;D

You have really good memory if you can remember songs from 1997/1998. My mom was playing a Bollywood song from 1998 that I apparently was obssesed with when I was 5, but I only vaguely remembered it (if at all).

Speaking of basic twinks, the weirdest thing happened this morning. I was waiting in line for coffee and I felt someone bumping in really close to me from behind, even though it was very early in the morning and not crowded at all. I moved forward but he bumped up against me again.

So when I got my coffee and sat down, he started loitering in front of me. IDK what he was doing - he didn't order a coffee. He was kind of hot in a je ne sais quoi way and had sagging pants (yeah I have horrible taste in guys, don't judge me). The best part was when he adjusted his sagging pants to make it sag more. He practically dropped his pants to the floor before adjusting it back up (still sagging). Seeing a cute guy in his boxers, that's not something you see everyday! (for me at least... *cries into pillow*)

Anyway the weird thing was, I'm pretty sure dude was high or on drugs of some form. He sat down on the floor against the wall. He had to adjust his sagging pants again to be able to sit comfortably. Then he put his hoodie on and buried his face into his knees. He looked f*cked up, in short. Not long after, the police came, surrounded him and told him that people had reported suspicious activity. Canadian police are nowhere near as bad as American police, but my cousin is training to be police so I've still heard a lot of horror stories (lots of racists and mouth breathers with delusions of grandeur - at least in the training programme), and this made me anxious that something bad might happen, and I had front seat tickets to this. 😱

Anyway, they weren't that abrasive. They asked him if he was okay, that he looked like he needed help and if there was anything they could do to help etc. But the kid kept arguing with them, that he was being discriminated against (he was white though lol), that he wasn't doing anything and that it was a public space (it actually wasn't lol). This all lasted for like 30 minutes but the police managed to get him to calm down and leave. I set aside an hour to get work done at the café. Between all the screaming and a man who purposefully bumped into me dropping his pants right in front of me, I got nothing done! :(

Come to think about it, Havana is now one of those songs that I will never hear the same way again because of pop forums, just like Mamma Mia and uh, Watch Me (Whip/Nae Nae) too, because of this: https://imgur.com/a/mPb5dK7 :D*


*For context, Naenae is also a suburb in Lower Hutt, New Zealand which from context, I could gather has a reputation of being an impoverished and dangerous neighborhood filled with bogans. I knew there was a town in New Zealand named Naenae for a long time, but I didn't know about the specifics. All those non-American and non-Filipino forums I'm in could be such cultural lessons sometimes.  :D ;D  ;)

*And upon further research, Naenae is also heavily Māori/Polynesian. http://archive.stats.govt.nz/Census/2013-census/profile-and-summary-reports/quickstats-about-a-place.aspx?request_value=14410&parent_id=14394&tabname=&sc_device=pdf

In Steve's imagination

There is justification

To lurk on togerland all the time

Keep one eye on conversation

This strange infatuation

Reading our every line



In Steve's imagination

There is such dedication

He'll stalk forever mouse in hand

He's creaming



Pretend he's AussieG

Taking pot shots at you

Impersonate you too

He's busted now, it's through



Steve uses a proxy

Proxy, proxy, proxy

Steve uses a proxy online

Steve uses a proxy

Proxy, proxy, proxy

But we know it's him every time



It's a crazy situation

To possess such hateration

It must have been at least 3 years



And parkus came a-runnin'

To give Steve all his log-ins

But the laptop was broken it seems



Steve's rep is close to breaking

And he can't go on faking

This fantasy that we don't know

Keep dreaming



That you've made us fall out with friends

And togerland will end

While Madfruit rules the roost

You're sad, bitter, and confused



Steve uses a proxy...
Put your hand on your mouse and tell me

It's not you, ooh, woah



Well it's one thing to take a swipe

But another to be so cold

I thought that it was AussieG

But now I know that it's you, Hole, woah



Look me in the eye, if you can, and tell me it's not you



You know it's one thing to call me Jabba

But another to post racist gifs

And if you don't intend to get them removed

We might just have to call the police, woah



I want a note saying that you are not Hole



Put your hand on your mouse and tell me

It's not Steven

I won't believe it even if you put your

Hand on your mouse and tell me

It's not you, ooh, woah



Steve likes to talk about misogyny

And how most white men don't give a damn

Do they wanna bow to feminazis

And be ruled by some negro Klan?



Yeah

Look me in the eye, if you can, and tell me you didn't call MikeyC a fat Jew



Put your hand on your mouse and tell me...

Looking back, I ruined my escforum.net reputation in a similar way. It happened in 2013 when I came back with a new account. I had been posting there since April 2009, and I was a perfectly accepted member. But I came back all derpy and doing things like creating a poll asking if butter was a carb. And I would tell them stories that nobody else cared about. This continued all the way till 2016. But this all stopped, I guess I just acted weird because I didn't feel comfortable in my skin, and I found my niche in the end or something.

I think I know which forum. But seriously, I'm reminded of Popjustice because of that one time my Internet went slow and I posted the same thing two or three times just to make sure, and when I got banned for it, I wasn't even given a chance to explain myself. To think that I had already heard rumors from um, elsewhere, about how strict the mods there are. Here's a negative review about it: "What's this kii and nnnn sheesh all about? They must be really cool expressions because OLD MAN VAS keeps saying them.

They're allowing NON-WORDS to be used but WOE BETIDE you use a semicolon wrongly."

I've been out of school for 4 years :o

But I think if they have the same frequency, you could get destructive interference. WiFi uses radio waves, and microwaves use... micro waves. Radio waves usually have lower frequencies than microwaves, but the distinction is arbitrary, so I guess if they're very close in frequency you could get interference.

Edit: oh okay, I was wrong. Apparently microwaves actually emit radio waves, and at the exact same frequency as older WiFi systems too. So yes, it can interfere, but if you have upgraded your router to use the 5 GHz band, you should be alright. :P

If you can understand, my home is in disarray with a complete refit, and my microwave oven is closer to the computer (further for the router) and running the oven took my wi-fi away.

Your router (if it's not an old one) emits waves both in 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Older devices are only compatible with 2.4 GHz, but your computer should work with 5 GHz. If you switch to 5 GHz, your connection should be safe from the microwave.

On my router, the "old" 2.4 GHz WiFi network's name (SSID) might be called "Slowpoke's House" but the 5 GHz one would be called "Slowpoke's House 5G", you have to connect to the latter.

From what I've been reading online (and I've been reading a lot about electric unicycles, I'm kind of obsessed with them right now), there is definitely a learning curve but it seems like most people can get going on them in a day or so. (I've also seen plenty of YouTube videos that give tips and exercises that can help expedite the learning process.)

The one piece of advice that has been universal is that you absolutely need to wear protective gear from head to toe (helmet, reinforced gloves, elbow, wrist and knee pads before you even think about getting on one of those things.

FWIW I turn 50 in a little over a month, yet I have very little doubt about doing this. If and when I get an EUC, I'll definitely keep you updated on my progress.

Boyhood, for mainly personal reasons since it's a coming-of-age movie where the main character is the same age as me.

I adore that film too, I saw in the cinema back in 2014, and by the time it finished it was my choice for the Best Picture and Best Director Oscars for that year, it missed out on both to "Birdman". The twelve year production was an achievement.

It also was during the viewing of this film, when around 15 minutes into the screening, two people arrived to they seats, put on their 3D glasses, sat there wondering, then realising they were in the wrong auditorium for their required film, for "Boyhood" was most certainly not a 3D movie.

I have just seen "What's Eating Gilbert Grape", a very sad film that the style reminded me of "Boyhood".

For proper books I would say Holes by Louis Sachar, and the Artemis Fowl series in second.

There was a book I had that was a collection of short stories. I forget what the book was called, but the characters in the all the stories were animals and there was a moral lesson in every story.

Another new(er) use of a word I have noticed recently popping up everywhere. You find the guy "basic". Does that mean you find him "average"? I've seen it elsewhere too recently, someone being described as "basic" even when the topic is not necessarily one of physical attraction. "He's so basic". "She's acting very basic". And another use of it I have definitely noticed is "she's a basic bitch".

This has to be the most evil question I've been asked! You can't make me choose between them...

I like The Weeknd's songs more on average but I still love Drake.  :-X

Favourite Weeknd song would be Snowchild (unless Stargirl Interlude counts, but it's an interlude) and favourite Drake song would be Passion Fruit.
