wtf, just go and drop some money on arcteryx and your'e good to go.
their outlet is epic and from hiking waterproof / or nike ACG gortex and fine arcteryx waterproof pants and you're good to go... BC has to best deals in town cause each employee has so much Employee Purchase program everythign is so cheap on FB marketplace.

i would just buy some softshell pants that are WR. your bike ride must only take 5 mins if your walk is 20m. take an umbrella on your walking days.

You are correct, sir. Bike ride is 5-6 mins long! I do bring my umbrella when it's raining. It's the wind blowing water at me that gets my shit soaked. Hence, the want for WR/WP gear.

I've been wearing Merrell Moabs (the Goretex version) for 15+ years. They're like the A/Ts of shoes: handles absolutely anything. I find that the Goretex liner wears out after a year though with a lot of walking and running around in them. So "treadlife" is not super great: I think I have literally bought 15 pairs of these by now lol. It's worth it though.

I actually think it's the other way around.

It's because the world is getting more and more fucked by the day, that we have to be better at this than our parents.

Imo being a parent is about giving someone a fair shot.

In every generation, fair shot meant something different. It wasn't that long ago that it "just" meant being kept physically safe: keep them warm, fed, healthy, and that was about it.

Now with all this social media bullshit, at a super young age they're going to have to be emotionally resilient, self-aware, self-actualized, and have their shit together to stay ahead of the AI curve.

Longer term, economically, things are going to become increasingly rigged against them. If they're putting in honest hard work, but it's looking like there's no way they're gonna get ahead, I think chipping in a little is the decent thing to do. You'd like to make it fair for them.

And finally, the world has more than enough douchebags. Hopefully by the end of the process, you've helped them become a decent human being.

Am I crazy?

Bought a new fridge a few months ago, paid for delivery. During delivery the delivery guys damage the door pretty badly, door fell over looks like it got hit with crow bar type damage. I tell them to leave it, they've already taken my other one outside, doors had to come off both fridges huge pain in the ass, I'll deal with it getting it fixed or replaced at later date.

Talk to appliance company, they say no problem they'll take care of it. Wait 2 months for new door, follow up with company replacing door and they inform us sorry but door cannot be ordered after two months of waiting.....

Contact LG and appliance store, gets sorted and they order us a new fridge. Fridge is getting delivered right now, delivery guy is like just so you know they are going to charge you for removing the doors from both fridges the damaged one they are taking away and the new one $90.00 for each fridge. I'm like absolutely not, I'm not paying shit, you damaged my new fridge you're replacing my new fridge in what world would I pay for that again, I already paid for delivery once.

The best part? The guy delivering the fridge right now was here when they damaged my fridge originally.....

They were going to leave, I said don't fucking do that I already took all the food out and all that bullshit and I don't want to deal with this anymore. My wife is going scorched earth, trying to calm her down, I tell the guy just swap the fridges I'll deal with the charges.

It's not so much the money, it's the principal. Am I the retard thinking this situation is fucked up?

you're not crazy, the company and their shipping company or both are playing silly bugger

they fucked shit up and expect you to foot the bill? fuck that :fuckthatshit:

on principle i'd spend so much time and effort to ensure they do the right thing.
when logitech f'd me on my purchase i probably spent hours to rectify it to ensure i got the discount & refund i was owed. i was explaining to a coworker who thought that was stressful and not worth it. i already crossed the rubicon so i had to ensure i won the battle.

how i felt afterwards, but was worth it knowing I got what was coming to me :lol

Pay the charges, then either file a chargeback for the partial charges of the new door or use your credit card's purchase protection.

Youtube is down. Looks like it's down for a lot of people.

Just hit the Sunwood Save On ... amazingly good Crispy Chicken Sandwich for $13.99

https://i.postimg.cc/zvv88YLq/PXL-20...-204533152.jpg

they have so many unique stuff that other SaveOns don't. Like Trail mix cinnamon bun which was really good for $4.50, and this cutest little thing.

Well, well, well.

Someone decides to go, but doesn't invite others.
When others invite you know who, thou who shall not be named does not show up*.

:accepted:

*sort of showed up

worth the drive, eh? I'm well overdue for another burger there. gf gave me her leftover burger the other day but it's just not the same as fresh!

gf gave you her leftover burger :ifyouknow:

awww now i want one... too bad i just got a tooth implant today (i lost it fighting chugs in grade 7) and cant even eat... now i gotta head out there for lawls.

That looks more like a panda than a grizzly bear...

This is their panda ... it's so damn cute !!!

I was there kinda spontaneous ... trying to see salmon hump/spawn but too early, didn't see any so went to SaveOn for lunch.

From my finding, there are 2 SaveOn Kitchens where they have items you can order like burgers, has neopolitan style pizza, and carvery, etc. They had a loaded Curry box for like $10.99. So whatever location is closer spoon.ek9
1. Sunwood, Coquitlam,
2. North Van, Park & Tilford Plaza

technically the north van location is closer to me but I have no reason to be out there lol

lol, I was in this thread reading posts and going back page after page, looking for a post I made today and couldn't find it. I was wondering how fast does this thread go...

Then I realize this is not the same thread as official-no-need-to-start-a-new-thread.

That's shameful and you should be ashamed of yourself.

RS is serious business: you should know your threads better than this!!!!!!

All you need to say is you will be leaving an "honest" review of their store to the manager, suddenly the fees will go away

That's fucked up and you're right to feel this way and you should pursue it pretty assertively. I've gotten pretty good at doing the "write the CEO" thing to get resolutions to this kind of stuff as I've worked on the other side of it in the past and know how escalations of stupid shit get handled.

I had a problem with Wealthsimple earlier this year and here's what I wrote (hopefully it's useful):

Initially responded to the support rep:

My response was written knowing that I would escalate it to the CEO so I then forwarded the thread to the CEO of WS and added this:

I had someone in 2 hours pick up the case who promised a fix in 24 hours, I was compensated with a $250 credit, and they sent gifts to my wife and my kid (Dr. Seuss book set) as an apology.

That chicken burger looks GREAT! Damn...now I want one.

PSA they close by 8pm so if you're going to go, go early.

obviously I don't mean tonight since it's currently 8:50 lol

Neptune restaurant sold similar bear dessert. I’d take a pic but cut off the head and separate it from the body like it was executed :lol
