If anyone drives down Broadway in Burnaby between Duthie and Lake City, look out for tree debris. I almost lost my wheel today after running over a thick branch that was covered by leaves. I got out and moved two logs out of the way as well. Had hazards on, but got honked at, LOL. Fucking bastards should be thanking me for clearing the road for them. It looked like a few cars had already run over the 5 to 10 inch pieces that were all over the road.

Maybe they were honking at datass. :considered:

So, Duchess gets black man arm pit sweat. Brits are up in arms (knickers in a knot), 'cause they can't lay a finger on royalty, but Americans can.

Are stores that sell oil/paint/tires, obligated in any way to accept the empty containers/used tires?

I know all the major tire stores are signed up to the BC tire recycling stewardship and you can drop your tires off at their stores as for oils etch I'm not sure but you can look it up here on where you can recycle them

Recycling Council of British Columbia | Recycling Council of British Columbia <<<recycle BC has a search for all things recyclable
Tire Recycling in BC - Tire Stewardship BC <<<tire stewardship
http://www.usedoilrecycling.com/en/bc <<<used oils/anti freeze stewardship


Edit, rona takes paint
Canadian tire, jiffy lube, etc takes motor oil

underscore 12-15-2014 09:42 PM

Any place that sells motor oil/fluids legally has to take them back, that said usually places with auto service centers (Canadian Tire, Walmart, etc) are better equipped to take them.

fliptuner 12-15-2014 10:05 PM

Reason I asked is cause CT has a spot where you can leave oil and coolant but has a sign that states they don't take paint.

fucking cowards attacked a freaking school.

Taliban attack on Pakistan school leaves 126 dead - World - CBC News

Quote:

Taliban gunmen stormed a military-run school in the northwestern Pakistani city of Peshawar on Tuesday, killing 126 people, officials said, in the worst attack to hit the country in years.

The overwhelming majority of the victims were students at the army public school, which has children and teenagers in grades 1-10. Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif condemned the assault and rushed to Peshawar to show his support for the victims.

The horrific attack, carried out by a relatively small number of militants from the Tehreek-e-Taliban, a Pakistani militant group trying to overthrow the government, also sent dozens of wounded flooding into local hospitals as terrified parents searched for their children.

I know technically they are all easily broken into if one were so inclined, but what's a good solid deadbolt to get?

Don't need digital keypad or whatever, just old school lock and key. Schlage B60?

So a lady from BC Cancer Foundation just knocked on my door asking for donation. I respectfully declined and said I am not in a position to donate today. She doesn't just walk away but says I hope cancer doesn't touch your life.

I should've responded but I shrugged it off. Reflecting back, am I too sensitive thinking she just indirectly cursed me or did she just do it to make me feel guilty? I thought it was pretty classless.

MG1 12-17-2014 08:13 PM

^should have replied with, "I hope so, too........ god bless."


The two most powerful words in the English language. christian or no, religious or not, it takes on so many meanings and keeps people guessing as to what you meant. Once you say it, you have the upper hand. Yuk, yuk.

Holy fuck, classic Vancouver passive-aggressive!


Last time I saw something so PA was when some girl in front of me at Milano coffee grabbed the coffee lids and purposefully knocked the entire stack over because she was tired of waiting behind a few slow people. Totally did it on purpose just to show how pissy she was. Vancouver is very passive-aggressive. If you notice these sorts of things you'll find people all the time do things like let doors slam in other people's faces, brake check people while driving allllll the time, and generally take the opportunity to give people backhanded compliments and other snide remarks.


"I hope cancer doesn't touch your life." Wow! That is cold as fuck!
