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.

Any idea on elevation? I recall similar as a kid in Burnaby and then heading up Seymour and seeing the tops. Was very cool.

Saw a similar pic on FB and someone commented, "that's not natural this is climate change"

They were above the Mountaintops.

We do, however, get a good deal of inversion type cloud formation in the Cove and viewing from Seymour, as you say, is cool as shit.

This reminds me of waterboarding. Abu Ghraib for seals.

The Onion buys infowars :D
Via our parent company Global Tetrahedron CEO Bryce P. Tetraeder:
Today we celebrate a new addition to the Global Tetrahedron LLC family of brands. And let me say, I really do see it as a family. Much like family members, our brands are abstract nodes of wealth, interchangeable assets for their patriarch to absorb and discard according to the opaque whims of the market. And just like family members, our brands regard one another with mutual suspicion and malice.
All told, the decision to acquire InfoWars was an easy one for the Global Tetrahedron executive board.
Founded in 1999 on the heels of the Satanic “panic” and growing steadily ever since, InfoWars has distinguished itself as an invaluable tool for brainwashing and controlling the masses. With a shrewd mix of delusional paranoia and dubious anti-aging nutrition hacks, they strive to make life both scarier and longer for everyone, a commendable goal. They are a true unicorn, capable of simultaneously inspiring public support for billionaires and stoking outrage at an inept federal state that can assassinate JFK but can’t even put a man on the Moon.
Through it all, InfoWars has shown an unswerving commitment to manufacturing anger and radicalizing the most vulnerable members of society—values that resonate deeply with all of us at Global Tetrahedron.
No price would be too high for such a cornucopia of malleable assets and minds. And yet, in a stroke of good fortune, a formidable special interest group has outwitted the hapless owner of InfoWars (a forgettable man with an already-forgotten name) and forced him to sell it at a steep bargain: less than one trillion dollars.
Make no mistake: This is a coup for our company and a well-deserved victory for multinational elites the world over.
What’s next for InfoWars remains a live issue. The excess funds initially allocated for the purchase will be reinvested into our philanthropic efforts that include business school scholarships for promising cult leaders, a charity that donates elections to at-risk third world dictators, and a new pro bono program pairing orphans with stable factory jobs at no cost to the factories.
As for the vitamins and supplements, we are halting their sale immediately. Utilitarian logic dictates that if we can extend even one CEO’s life by 10 minutes, diluting these miracle elixirs for public consumption is an unethical waste. Instead, we plan to collect the entire stock of the InfoWars warehouses into a large vat and boil the contents down into a single candy bar–sized omnivitamin that one executive (I will not name names) may eat in order to increase his power and perhaps become immortal.
All will be revealed in due time. For now, let’s enjoy this win and toast to the continued consolidation of power and capital.
Infinite Growth Forever,
Bryce P. Tetraeder, Global Tetrahedron CEO

Mike Tyson is taking on some youtuber tomorrow - sounds really hokey, but Tyson usually interesting.

I guess the gloves are heavier and the rounds are 2 minutes - but overall: Fight or Scam?

Would not be surprised if Tyson loses, he’s a 58 year old man FFS fighting someone 31 years younger. I don’t care if if he’s Mike Tyson bit 58 vs 27 is ripe for a disaster is Paul is smart. The longer Paul drags the fight out the worst it is for old man Mike. The lungs won’t last 3 rounds

It's for sure a fight.

Tyson looks really good in his fight prep footage.

Fast as hell and strong.

Money is leaning his way.

But Paul legit can scrap and has massed out a lot.

Dude is huge.

I'm with BD though.

Tyson needs to put him down early or youth will take over.

Mikes the same age as me, stamina or the lack thereof is what I notice most. Paul will be smart to antagonize Tyron early, have him chasing him while avoiding Mikes punches, get Mike swinging for the fences early to drain him of his old man energy. Once that happens, it’s game over for Mike. Hope they have doctors ringside in case Mike has a jammer.

I feel like Iron Mike will die in the ring

... and that he's good with that.

I'm with Dude, he's too old for this.
