no no these are cute and charming! the houses we saw were crazy town, like all of those colors on one house semi unfinished

that makes SO much more sense than “what do they just jump?” ha. the paint colors might have been in the same vein actually - they were like one side bright pink, the top half electric blue and the front green. It was in no way coherent

Pretty Lunenberg...

I can answer this. It was a tax evasion scheme. If your house had no front steps it was technically still under construction and would be taxed slightly less. So basically some of my cousins houses were under construction for 10 years. As for different colours you may have been driving through Acadian areas. The flag…

No one in Atlantic Canada uses their front doors. They put them in, we’re not savages, but all entrances and exits are conducted by the back door (feel free to begin sniggering now).

they had stoops alright, but they heard American strangers were coming thru so best to pull up those stoops and keep the folks safe.

It’s really pretty there! Source: I’ve been there several times.

Canada didn’t get stairs until about 2003. It was actually American soldiers who fled to Canada to avoid deployment to Iraq who brought the innovation north.

As a kid we drove to Canada a lot for “vacation” b/c the dollar was favorable, and it “wasn’t that far”. One year we took the ferry from Maine and drove through Nova Scotia, it was beautiful but I noticed two odd things: 1- a LOT of houses seemed to be pained in very strange, very bright and mis matched paint colors.…

I would sooner spend the next four years watching an endless loop of a remake of “My Dinner With André” starring Elmo and Jar Jar Binks while hitting myself in the dick with a hammer than live under Donald J. LePetomane Trump.

We really don’t say ‘eh’.

Listen. I’m not saying Adam Lanza wasn’t somehow involved that day, but the angle of the streetlights in the security camera footage from the prior night to that early morning just don’t line up. Let’s not judge people as crazy just because they have logical points to argue. Life is stranger than fiction sometimes.…

x2. I went to a college on the other side of the state, and didn’t hear from my mom once until I called her to let her know I was dropping out because the west side of Michigan is AWFUL (4 months of endless snow, ice, and grey skies (also my first Thunder Snow) exacerbated my depression). Then I didn’t hear from her…

This seems like the perfect response. Fair, measured, sympathetic, relatable and common sense.

“If you want to, for your own-self-empowerment, take personal responsibility because you feel like you need to for something you did, that is one thing,” she adds. “But you don’t get to make that statement for everybody else.”

Cheries story doesn’t make sense. She wrote an accurate account of what happened in in her memoir , and showed it to Jackie, who took legal action to stop it. That same account showed up without Jackies name in another book. So if she now claims it didn’t happen, how did she know the exact details to write about it?…

Or, you know, Joan and Cherie are LYING.

Two witnesses commented in the article that they saw what happened. Did you read the whole article??

And the jumping in with a lie detector test?! Very Maury.
