Yeah, we almost voted these guys out a year ago. BC just had the NDPs come back onto power and I am hoping the same thing happens here in a few years. These conservatives are by for the worst politicians we have ever had and many Albertans know it.
When I was a kid I remember my grandparents would just put $50-$100 in a card and call it a day. I loved the gift of just money because the possibilities of what I could buy myself were endless. It made more sense for my grandparents too as they had no idea what kids my age wanted anyway and I would've likely been disappointed if they tried to buy me what they thought I wanted.
For whatever reason now though, it's seen as lazy or uncaring if you just gift money. I would argue that this is some bs corporations have created to get us to feel obligated to buy an actual item. In my mind though, money is the best gift.
On a related note, my parents bought us a $100 giftcard one year and when we went to us it we discovered that there was a slip of paper covering the barcode. That slip of paper had a photocopy of another barcode on it, so when my parents put money on the card, it actually went on a different card. Pretty common scam we found out. When we called the stores help line, they said they could not help us. So yeah fuck giftcards. The companies themselves won't even take steps to ensure they are secure. As long as they still got their money, they don't care if scammers got to use the giftcard instead.
It's been great watching Ubisoft fail so spectacularly in the only thing big game companies seem to care about now, share price. It's been a long time coming with their garbage practices. I remember when they were creative and used to try to make great games. Black Flag and Farcry 4 are still some of my favourite games.
Hopefully what is happening to Ubisoft and their share price scares the shit out of all the big gaming companies and forces them to listen to what gamers want rather than trying to get them to play live service games.
Stuff like this should qualify for a lifetime suspension from driving. Extreme disregard to the safety of others.
American Dad. It's Family Guy made way better. The episodes are so original and creative. The first 7 seasons are all gold.
When I saw that price tag for the pro, I knew that I had bought my last PlayStation console. If I decide to invest on new hardware, it will be a PC I can control rather than some locked box plugged into my TV.
A couple years ago I paid what I felt was quite a bit of money for good seats on a plane. Then they started playing ads on the screen in front of me during take off. There was no way to turn off the screen and it literally felt like this screen was being thrust my face that I had no co trol over. Airline is the worst way to travel and they are only going to get more predatory.
Song quality is terrible. The features are lacking and rarely useful. Now they have increased the rates and take away car play. I left when I realized my top artists and songs were the same every year. Much better to buy the songs when the quality is way better and I actually own the media
Yeah she is an idiot
What I find interesting is how many people will be on there clearly sick and not wearing a mask or trying to distance themselves from others. Just selfish people who don't care who they infect.
What stores should we be using as an alternative to loblaws? They own almost everything in my area
Honestly I would take the little banner if it meant there was not comerical breaks. The fact that they do this on top of all the ads they also play at breaks is so over the top. I have been getting into European football and I find it so refreshing that they play 45 mins half straight through. It's way faster games and there is not the disruption of comericals. In those games they have the banner, but I don't mind it as much
