If you didn't see Avatar in IMAX, then you might as well not see it. The best part is gone.

Apparently hating the Lord of the Rings movies.

So many people like to hate them, I hate that.

That movie sucked out loud.

Which, coincidentally, I think is exactly what I said last time.
Avatar was a really cool concept, but the story kind of blew.

If a movie has to rely on IMAX to be watchable, it's safe to say that it is objectively a bad movie.

If the Academy Awards weren't already a joke, they became one when Return of the King won best picture.

Yeah, I never said it was good.

Watching it in IMAX 3D was visually spectacular though. Same with Gravity. The movie on it's own was pretty meh, the scenes of exploding space stations in IMAX 3D was fricken amazing.

I don't know if everyone likes magpies, but they suck.

Are you allowed to just shoot wildlife in Calgary with a pellet gun? I just bought a sweet pellet rifle with a scope and have been getting very good with targets lately. I've never killed an animal, but would be willing to take a crack at any nuisance pests you have.

No dice. Seems they are protected. Little #### hawks. I hate them.

Who likes magpies? I don't think I've ever met anyone who does.

Protected? Magpies? That's news to me. I was told by my magpie trapping neighbor that you can't fire a gun regardless of the purpose but they are considered pests and are allowed to be killed. He lures them into his garage and then...well I'm not sure. Murders them somehow.

Hate is strong, but....

Tim Hortons

Donuts are ok. Food is pretty bad. Long lines. Do they still not take visa?

Add to that...

Costco

Some good product, but way to much hype about prices. Most prices are better at Walmart or Superstore and you don't have to buy case lots for everything. Also, no shopping experience is worse than a Costco one.

They are preferable to crows, seagulls, pigeons, and geese.

I hate people who feed birds, though. People seem to love throwing crumbs at whatever winged creature will approach them, like they are some kind of duck whisperer. Then you end up with a place like Eau Claire / Prince's Island with bird crap all over the place. It's disgusting.

How could anyone hate a magpie? Maybe we just don't know enough about our friend the magpie...



They are literally the smartest bird and arguably the smartest creature out there.

Doesn't matter how smart they are. They're annoying as heck and evil. Not to mention they eat dog poo. DOG POO. Idiots.

I knew there were magpie apologists on here. I think they're more of a 'Thing everybody hates because they suck, but you like for some reason'
