Which is why I prefer to shop at Burlington. It's only 30 minutes away. Not the greatest casino in the Northwest, but Skagit Casino is on the way,


Burlington has a Costco, Fred Meyers, Walmart, an outlet mall, Best Buy, Five Guys, See's Candy, etc.

Usually I’m in the don’t be overly sensitive camp as well, but in this case I think the flag represents intolerance rather than any sort of “straight pride”. The public still stigmatizes LGBTs, whereas straights don’t really face any of that. What reason is there for a “straight flag” other than to diminish the minority?

This is why you don't have city councils putting up rainbow flags or crosswalks. I have no problem with the flag itself or the message behind it, nor did the person who put up the straight flag, but it invites every other group or individual to insist on having their own flag raised. Like the public schools, either all religions get equal representation, which would be awful for students to have to sit through, or it all gets removed and you practice your religion on your own time. Keep government secular on paper and no one group can feel oppressed and lacking in representation.

As a straight person I'm offended by how badly designed that flag looks. A black design on a black strip? What kind of halfassed shit is this?

I can’t believe the amount of drivers out there not having their car’s headlights on this morning. No headlights on means no taillights on. In this kind of fog, it’s pretty important to be seen. The problem is cars nowadays have dashes where the display is bright all the time making it look like everything is alright. Then there’s the auto headlights on feature. It’s daylight and headlights won’t come on. Anyway, RS’rs, be careful out there this morning. Turn your headlights on and look out for all the retards out there with no taillights on. Also clear your windshields. One minute out of your life may save it.

Fucking hell. I was looking forward to some BBQ Pork for my tofu dish. Went to Chong Lee on 22nd and Rupert. The whole strip mall there is being demolished. The restaurant, Little Caesers. God damnit. No more crazy bread?

Chong Lee doesn’t have great BBQ Pork, but it was easy to get to and sort of convenient. Oh well, shit happens.

According to my son, Chong Lee will be back in a year. I guess like the building across Rupert Street. Businesses downstairs and living spaces above. Get most out of the land you own.

Chong Lee, despite all its weirdness will be missed................. just a tad.

Extra hour of sleep Sunday, change your old school clocks, RS bishes. I believe it’s officially 2:00 am Sunday morning. At least that’s what it’s been for a long ass time.

EDIT: 3:00 am

I was charging the EV the morning of November 1st at the Grandview Hwy location. There's a huge crowd of people waiting for the doors to open. I sauntered over there after I plugged the car in. Holy bejeezuz, all these chinese ladies with carts and carts of Halloween chocolates. What the hell are you going to do with all that chocolate? We're talking 50 to 60 large boxes and bags.

Today I was at the Superstore near Coquitlam Centre. There were easily three full pallets of chocolates left over. What a difference.

Yeah seriously. On one hand, MAYBE they intend to buy it for their children, grandchildren. On the other hand, their children and grandchildren probably don't actually want it.
It's not just the halloween stuff, it's everything on sale. It's every morning when they bring out the "fresh" produce. How much can one elderly person or couple even eat?

You go to the North Van Superstore and they still have loads of candy left. Lol. Whenever there's a sale, I don't even bother going to the Grandview Superstore. Everything will be gone by the time i make it down there lol

Holy shit........... I forgot how many clocks and watches I have around the house. I love it when they're automatic, like the ones in the cars. I have this one clock I remembered I had in the back corner of the rape dungeon. It took me like 20 minutes to move shit away so I could get at it. Half way, I'm thinking to myself, "WTF. Why am I even bothering?" Then............. when I get to it, it's a plug in, BTW, it's the correct time, lol. It's been close to a year since being back there. Maybe more. It was around the time El Bastardo came visiting. Then there's the so called, "Atomic Clock," that I have in the garage. It's supposed to automatically connect with satellites and shit. Hasn't worked since day one. It says signal is strong enough............. anyway, carry on carrying on.


EDIT: I just realized it took me over an hour, the hour I was supposed to be gaining, adjusting all the clocks, gulolol.

Spoiler!

Honestly, the BBQ pork at Chong Lee was not good at all. I get BBQ Pork at Crystal Mall. It's not great, either, but I park in the underground parking lot at the library across the street and walk over. I'm sure there are good places in Richmond, but I value my life. I've gotten BBQ Pork from this place in Chinatown. It's actually called Chinatown BBQ. It's expensive, but I like it. Not everyone's cup of tea. Parking's not that bad on the street. There's a parkade close by that's free for the first 30 minutes (Keefer Street).

The BBQ pork at Price Mart isn't too bad.

Should get it from HK BBQ Master in Richmond Superstore and see if you can check out their track-ready EP3 delivery car.



Oh and to get BBQ pork. It's good I think.
