That’s a good point. Kinda like sales of retail toilet paper are up, but commercial toilet paper, which not any of the same brands or even the same supply chain, is way down.

On what planet does Toronto not get hot in summer? Personally, I call a humidex of 41 Celcius pretty damn hot.

I wonder how many people who say they hate mayonnaise grew up being fed things slathered in Miracle Whip.

I don’t know if this necessarily means people are consuming more mayo so much as people are consuming more mayo at home (and thus buying more Hellmann’s). Restaurants that serve sandwiches typically use a shit ton of mayo, but they often either use cheaper brands at shittier restaurants or make their own at nicer…

“Toronto isn’t supposed to get that hot in the summer”

I feel like this could be overcome with some smart planning. Strategic investment in theater footprint (to prevent losing locations over lack of money to pay rent), low re-start up costs and a very smart slate of movies ready to go when it’s safe to be out in crowds again. I think that it would be easy to sell two…

Would love to also see more coverage of all of the hard work abortion rights advocates are doing, and the many successes we are seeing. More people support abortion than not, would be great to see coverage reflect this!

I got an Alamo and a Violet Crown about two miles from me and didn’t go often enough in hindsight. So mad at past me. 

This seriously sucks. It was only about 4 years ago I found the perfect theatre. It had been a playhouse, so only one movie a day playing, bar in the back and with the tables in the back of the house, I could get up and walk around when I needed to without bothering people (crowds = bad and a health issue means…

“And the best picture goes to....Bad Boys For Life!”

I watched Uncut Gems in the theatre instead of on Netflix for this very reason — there was no way I was going to be able to sit still on my couch for something that intense for two hours. Let alone resisting pausing to check my phone to look up an actor, etc. (as I’m not one of those assholes who pulls out their…

Their “theatrical release” mandate is such a load of garbage and it will cost them this year.

that Boiler Room Van set was perfect. 

Would it though? Maybe that’s at least something more couples should talk about before moving in together.

If I ever get close to moving in with a romantic partner, that might be something I bring up. 

When I was a Head Start teacher (sooooo much more paperwork than being a kindergarten teacher, we also had to mop and vacuum our own floors, sanitize toys and tables everyday, and I spent a lot more out of pocket on changing up the dramatic play area, but I digress), we had banana dogs on the breakfast menu. Banana…

Would my breakfast reviewer eat this and enjoy it?

Meh. Big deal. I hid beer from my mother because she thinks everyone is an alcoholic.

you made two good things, worse. much, much worse. at the exact same time.

This brings back memories of my paternal grandmother, who I think used the word “oriental” though to her credit she was born in 1925.

it’s better to actually ask the kids what they want during the week versus imposing something on them that evening.
