His last comments on "never coming to communist Canada ever again, and rather visiting Russia" pretty much ended him for me.
Guy is a fucking idiot. It's amazing how money and being surrounded by rich elite assholes can so easily sway the mindset of a supposed "free-thinker".
The guy has zero integrity, but now that I think about it, he was peddling all those garbage nootropics and pseudo-science medical products like Alex Jones even back then.

And yeah, until like 2014-2015, you could do any coke you wanted and all of the hot chicks, B.C. Film people, real estate agents, IT folk... fuck EVERYONE was doing coke because the drugs weren't poisoned yet. I can't remember what year it was, 2008 maybe? Edit: not going to say what professional field this was, but a big convention was at a fancy hotel downtown in Vancouver and my friend who was in that industry invited me, I went to their private party and I walked into a room full of B.C.'s top people in that business and there was a table with a massive pile of coke on it. Had to have been at least a half-o, if not more, and people were casually doing lines and having a great time.

You guys see the tower collapse in myanmar from the earthquake?
Its insane how it just folds. Makes you wonder if its tofu construction, or vancouver could face the same if we ever got hit with something so strong.

Definitely gave some 9-11 vibes with that collapse. I fear it would be just as bad if not worse here when the big one hits. Extra motivation to get those preparedness kits ready boys, it's just a matter of time.

Hey guys! Got a question. Let me ask RS:
Any recommendations for waterproof sneakers? I mean sneakers, like running shoes. Not hiking boots or rain boots.
I'm looking for a decent pair that's actually waterproof.
I've tried many brands (Goretex Salomans, Asics, Vessis) but they all seem to leak from the bottom. The insole would get wet and the bottom of my feet will be wet and shriveled up. Thanks in advance guys!

The vans old skool hi tops I use for winter. They are solid for what they are. They specifically need to be the waterproof ones though.

Do you specifically need running shoes? I have a pair of Converse hi top leathers with 3m thinsulate and they have been water proof for the 6 years I've had them. They do need to be replaced soon as I've worn the bottom down.

The more waterproof a shoe is the less breathable it will be it’s really that simple. No matter what tech is in the membrane like goretex, it wears out usually fairly quickly. Even goretex is not that breathable which is why you still sweat in $1000 arcteryx jackets. Also goretex wets out after a certain amount of time in the rain, so if you are commuting on a super wet day and walking in puddles a lot, waterproof shoes will not be that waterproof especially after youve had them for a few months.

If you just want to keep your feet dry you can put bread bags (or any small plastic bags) over your socks. That's what we did for hiking in the rain in outdoor ed and it worked a treat.

Skip to 0:38 https://www.youtube.com/watch?si=yLD...ature=youtu.be | That's Bangkok, I mean it literally says Bangkok on the screen. The earthquake was in Myanmar but Bangkok felt it. Thailand doesn't get a lot of Earthquakes so it's not a surprise the buildings (esp ones under construction) aren't built to withstand it.

They also have a shit ton of old buildings (as do most Asian countries) that weren't made to withstand earthquakes at all.
Last I saw, the death toll was above 1600 but unconfirmed.

What a stupid design to connect two high rises by some sky bridge for aesthetic purposes. Good luck repairing that

What shot are you on, Hondaracer? You should be on like your 8th if you are following the doctor-recommended schedule. You don't think you're smarter than a doctor, do you?

No but anything Joe spits out isn’t objective and he generally guides his guests into lines of questions that align with whatever BS he’s trying to get out of the interview.
I absolutely regret being coerced by a for profit company to take a shot I didn’t want and felt like didn’t need given my health history. However, I don’t dispute the science behind it and I know quite a few people in my life who either work with MRNA technology or FDA approvals and I can trust their knowledge that the science is sound.
If Covid was just some hoax to see if everyone could be forced to take a shot, the end results turned out pretty shit because as you can see now with the huge increases in measles, etc. people have general hesitancy to almost any vaccine. And in the future, if there ever was another Covid, there will be incredible pushback on a mass vaccination program. So whatever they were “trying to achieve” hopefully they got everything they need out of Covid, because the people pulling the string behind the scenes will never have another opportunity like that again.

To this day, I refuse to be friends with anyone vaccinated. I see people like you as total fucking cowards. No wonder you vote Con, you lost your balls.
