CC Random thread

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Indeed. It was a hamfisted attempt at sarcasm Corn.

Sorry.

I harken back in this to previous discussions here on this very forum with the one with whom I most often seem to disagree who was strongly in favor of removing Assad despite the obvious outcome of said action.

And here we are, with the genocide in Syria that yours truly so earnestlly guaramteed.

What a surprise :D

You know Donny, the man who singlehandedly popularized the use of interrobangs on the internet is a good friend of mine. Believe it or not.

It was the legendary troll ba_dass out of San Francisco California @ Fightsport 2.0 aka The Free Speech Monster circa 2011. This was his standard method ???!!!

Wild times.

Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

I'm curious why the OP of that tweet thinks that what she says is inflammatory enough that it would warrant calls for removal from office.....maybe sensitive much?

May is completely out of touch with anyone but the denizens of her little island (well with at least one relatively new exception eh wot), but I don't mind her rhetoric insomuch as it pertains to Trump's behaviour towards Canada the past few weeks.

Spend the dough on a higher end 2 stage gas furnace. (Daikin, Lennox, etc)

Unless you love throwing BC hydro wads of cash of course. Heat pumps suck power like an AC running full time. Many, many, MANY customers I've followed up with after dumping 20-30k on a system have massive regrets

Thanks, just got an email from the company that did my AC a few years ago. Everything is currently working so I don’t feel the need to upgrade.

The email said with all the rebates I can almost get it installed for free. Not that believe any of that.

HVAC sales are car salesmen dirty. If they're calling you hang up

If you want an honest assessment, hire a smaller local outfit to come perform maintenance and ask the tech his opinions.
