I might try to hit A Silent Voice now that there are more screenings. Maybe.
I also really want to see The Killing of a Sacred Deer and I don't have a lot of free time over the next week.

Surprise! It was a bunch of neckbeards! Betcha didn't see that coming

I have a hard time telling the difference between neckbeard alt-right people and neckbeard hipsters.
Quite the pose. Intentional?
Same. Both are weak-minded douches though so it doesn't matter.
It's weird because I don't think it's a good adaptation, but I also want to I support it.

Also I guess scotiabank theatre converted the lobby to VR rooms now. It's so weird.
I thought it was just an overreaction to their poster at first because It is ok to be white.
Then I read about the other stuff they've done before and they are nuts.
(just to preface, I work for a very, VERY small startup. Our current size is about 3-4 people.)
The big boss wont' be in as he has to attend to some meetings.. okay. sure.
Getting ready for work, and I get a text from one of my bosses saying he won't be able to come in today. "Aw man, wish I could take today off", I said to myself.
I then get a message from a senior co-worker that he'll be working from home today. My heart skipped a beat, but I continued to get ready.
And then........ it happened.
The boss who messaged me earlier sends me another text saying that I might as well take the day off since almost nobody will be in today.
Guess who's going back to bed?
THIS GUY IS
UNINTENTIONAL LONG WEEKEND WWOOO

What a dream, congrats. Still got a day of work ahead of me, but I can taste the weekend.
Where is this snow?I saw some frost/a cm or two when I got up, but not the dumping we were expecting.
I saw a lot on the commute to work. We're not knee deep in it but it was enough to spook me.
Tiny dusting. Hardly worth mentioning. If you were north of the coty there was more. It is cold today though.
From the perspective of a real winter, it's not that cold. But that being said, we dropped like 15-20 degrees since yesterday so I say WTF
They're supposed to give out posters for A Silent Voice, but I expect they'll run out tonight. lol
Also I did some research and the "IMAX VR" set up seems to be a bunch of HTC Vives with games you can already buy on Steam. I guess if you just wanted to try VR for 10 minutes, it's an option, but man, what a scam. lol

I couldn't catch the prices, but I want to assume 10+ bucks per "experience".
lol
well, I'll give them points for creativity. they're not making money from movie ticket sales anymore so have to find some other way to fleece customers.
It's the first thing you see when you go in. I guess they're expecting people who are early to want to try some VR before going upstairs.
(It's weird that they didn't put it the Y&D location though, since it's probably the better location of the two.)
Somewhere out there amongst the the stars and the vast universe, but occupying the same city as us, a generic Asian dude who also happens to be cranky & hate the TTC, is cursing #TeamCold
Stay stronk
This is my parents first winter in Toronto/Ontario in general since moving back from Dubai. Will be interesting to see how they cope.
I didn't end up going but thanks for the tips, lol. I'll probably do it next week instead.
Aw yeahhh. I had a No Frills band-aid :P
They also gave me a sugar free lollipop, which I gave to my mom since she's diabetic.
They had a bowl Shoppers Drug Mart Lollipops, but I didn't take one.

Anyone been on King Street yet? Starting this week, all traffic must turn right at all intersections. You can drive as far as one block on King before you have to get off King.

It's gonna be a long year for drivers. lol
They should also bar all left turns from all streets with streetcar tracks.
Ever since I started driving regularly, I make note of every aftermath of a car accident I see and check if it's mentioned on CP24 or whatnot. Saw a car flipped right on Leslie and York Mills a couple of hours ago. Thankfully it didn't seem to result in any fatalities.
Does anyone else do this?

I get that progress doesn't all look the same, and isn't always in large jumps, but this is lipstick on a pig again.
The street car status quo?!? What about the rest of the abysmal system? The overall status quo is that of a 3rd world country, and citizens shouldn't be subjected to this shit when we pay so much in tax and fares.
TTC need to change up management again. They're defending garbage to keep their jobs as if people don't notice what a shit show things are nearly every fucking day. The pigs all have plenty of lipstick, and it's time for real changes. I feel like if the TTC would call it like it actually is, things may have a chance to improve overtime. Instead, we are playing some PR game.
If it's going to be a complete mess, let's double down and stop charging fares.
Edit: The fact that ideas like this not only haven't been implemented, but are all but opposed by the TTC speaks volumes:

Edit2: We should give the TTC another award for this: http://www.680news.com/2017/11/13/r...ks-path-of-bus-that-was-too-crowded-to-board/
She's my hero.

I do admit, while I'm in favour of the King Street experiment, I am also in favour of the white line rule either being enforced across the board or tossed completely
I just know that I can't imagine wellington being worse than it is now during rush hour
