While your trolling attempts are occasionally amusing, if only for the frothy-mouthed reactions some people fall into, their increasing frequency and length begin to bore. Nobody could seriously be as clueless as you purport to be, so maybe dial it back a bit until hockey season starts and you can camouflage your pronouncements of idiocy within all the other rabble-rousing that will inevitably begin again.

I can't for the life of me see how you could think I'm trolling when everything I say is true (from my perspective, of course). I mean this thread is about which neighbourhoods people think are the best and that's exactly what I'm discussing. Maybe PM a mod?

But you're right Sliver. You convinced me. I called my realtor this morning, and I'm listing my house (which incidentally is 1.5 blocks from a great elementary school, but thanks for the tidbit about how important proximity to schools are), and moving to Lake Bonavista. And I'm pulling my daughter out of her daycare that she loves and enrolling her in Montessori. In Lake Bonavista. EVERYONE IN CALGARY SHOULD LIVE IN LAKE BONVISTA!!!!!!!!
I don't know how I made it this far in life before you came along and enlightened me to the superior, Lake Bonavista way. Thanks man.

Okay, different strokes for different folks. You'd rather have your kid in a car during your commute whereas I think they're better off in childcare during that time. We did have our kids in a dayhome that was about 20 minutes away from our house when we lived in the NW and I always felt really bad for them sitting in the car in stop-and-go traffic when they're tired, hungry and uncomfortable. Having childcare close to your house means they sit in the car way less and are less vulnerable to traffic problems (accidents, detours, construction, inclement weather, etc.). That has nothing to do with Lake Bonavista; that is just a different childcare philosophy that seemed to inspire a heated response from you.
You also said it was over an hour to commute to and from Lake Bonavista and I proved to you that was completely untrue.
I think we should agree to disagree to keep the peace.
