And it hasn't even started snowing yet. I assume all these rentals and leases are even less likely to even bother with winter tires?

I got my tires swapped in the NE last weekend and there were a lot of O-s getting winters on.

We have 5 over grown zucchini in the fridge, what makes it worse it my girlfriend insists on cooking them every time it's her turn to make dinner.

I couldn't possibly get why she would like overgrown zuchinni.

You lobbed that one up and deserve it.

LOL, ya...


We ground ours up and put it in the freezer. It really does make excellent chocolate cake, particularly gluten free which is usually dry and crumbly. You don't notice the zucchini at all, and it keeps it moist and delicious. Can share if anyone wants.

Sorry Fuzz, anyone who says chocolate zucchini cake doesn’t taste like chocolate AND zucchini is lying to themselves.

Can be good. But tastes like zucchini.

[troutman]

Zucchini is 95% water.

Not this one. I think the cinnamon helps hide it. I don't like zucchini at all, but will eat it if it's on my plate. I can't taste it at all in this recipe.

^lol.

Like everything, it's the bad ones screwing things up for the rest of us who I can't stand. Vast majority of cyclists, complete non-issue; we co-exist without friction.

It's the ones with the lack of self-preservation instinct who do things that put themselves in harm's way, and then I have to watch out and react to their stupid decisions. Just like inattentive drivers and oblivious / jaywalking pedestrians. The bad ones ruin it for the rest of us who know WTF we're doing in this car / bike / ped social contract.

Every single cyclist I see in an industrial park is a rolling DUI. Nobody sees Glen ripping 52nd st on his $150 kijiji special bike with a 5 o clock shadow from August and thinking “this guy is doing it for the environment”.

Bikes. The transportation of last resort.


Though usually the DUI types can't hack the effort. They are the ones with two stroke engines haphazardly strapped to a Supercycle.

You'd think it would be walking, but even yesterday, I saw someone walking bent at a 90-degree angle and dragging a bike alongside.

Hopefully the new mayor cleans up our streets.

All they can do is hammer on the provincial government to provide an end-to-end solution that the City can utilize. Everything available to the City and CPS is effectively a half-measure that lands at a revolving door (or the morgue) and appears fully endorsed by the province. You want the streets cleaned up? So do I, so stop voting for the f-cking UCP.

He can't. he is a reform party/ Wildrose shill. Pretty much the worst combo in Cdn politics history. hahahaha

I have not had a mozza burger in probably 5 years. Just went down and got one. Maybe I am screwed but it was disgusting. Not a busy time being after lunch. Cold as hell. the cheese was like a piece of foot skin slice that had zero chance of melting ever.

Didn't the cheese melt just a bit? So much lettuce, like I am stupid. Obviously the zero cost thing. The bacon was like leather. Threw that out.

Are things getting worse or am I getting old and dumb?

A&W burgers are pretty hard to eat. Unless you like hewing on half of an uncooked onion.

100% gonna have gastro probs in the next few hours too. I'm an idiot. It was terrible.

[TorqueDog]

A&W was way better in the late-90s through early-2000s. And in the last several years, the quality coming out of the franchises has been really hit or miss.
