Is it possible there are unheard grails locked down by either producers or leakers who just hang onto the songs?

Anyone’s rogers internet down in Ajax?

Welcome back, everyone! After a turbulent last few days, the sub has officially been restored.

We’ve implemented some new standard rules to make the community safer, cleaner, and less flooded with spam. Things should continue getting back to normal, and we’ll do our best to mitigate the nonsense that caused so many problems.

A few things are just basic common sense. For example: “Do I really need to post Drake’s 6-pack every single day?” Definitely not. 😂

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to the mod team.

After finishing BioShock 1 and 2, I couldn’t help but feel like Infinite abandoned one of the series’ best gameplay mechanics: resource management.

In the first two games, every fight made you think. Should I use this ammo? Is this enemy worth wasting armor-piercing rounds on? Should I save my money for later? Cash was limited, ammo was scarce, and finally finding a vending machine actually felt rewarding because every purchase mattered.

In Infinite, all of that tension disappeared. Ammo is everywhere, enemies constantly drop it, Elizabeth throws you supplies, and vending machines let you restock so easily that I almost never had to think about conserving resources. It completely changed the pacing of the game.
The atmosphere also took a hit for me. Rapture felt oppressive, lonely, and dangerous. Columbia is visually beautiful, but it’s so bright and open that it loses a lot of the survival-horror feeling that made the first two games so immersive.
Instead of a slower, strategic experience where every encounter mattered, Infinite felt like wave after wave of enemies in large arenas—a run-and-gun shooter that happened to have BioShock’s name on it.

I still think Infinite has a good story and great art direction, but from a gameplay perspective it felt like the series traded strategy and immersion for a more generic action shooter.

Notorious spammer Routine Badger has been banned from the subreddit for spamming Drake bait posts and Olivia Rodrigo obsession threads. We now get a much needed break. His alt account Money-Beautiful must be in shambles

Anyone else getting mass phone calls from Roger’s saying I’m a loyal customer and have phone plans that are cheaper. I shut them down and say I’ll contact if I ever need it and they call back. I’ve now had 4 calls on Friday and 3 more again today. It’s bordering on spam at this point. The only thing I want is cheaper internet and unless the call is about that I don’t care. How do I handle this? I kinda want to ask for supervisor or someone else to complain but I don’t want a random attendant who is being forced to call me for their job to get in trouble either. But calling someone 7 times in 2 business days to offer phone plans, me saying no and them continuing to call is extremely unprofessional

I’m level 69 and have some experience in tier 3 and I’m still getting used to it. Beating some of the tier 3 contracts but still haven’t had a single schematic drop. If anyone has more experience out there and wants a competent player add me PSN: JamesHISself

I usually run the WSP Swarm Akimbo’s and have Epic Tools level and the PAP1 crystal. So still trying to get some of the things I need to get out to tier 3 faster in game. My biggest hold back is i dont have anyone to play with to conquer the area. I rarely get downed and can follow whoever is running the session well.

If the primary focus of Dead City was about Negan and his journey it would’ve been a better received show. At the end of The Walking Dead despite Negan’s help saving The Commonwealth he’s still clearly exiled. Maggie would be serving a much better purpose by staying in the commonwealth than joining up with Negan. I always found the episodes of the OG show that focused solely on Negan were much more interesting. I just find Glenn (Maggie’s kid) insufferable and Maggie’s dynamic in no world would ever happen.

I’ve noticed a consistent pattern between Routine-Badger and Money-Beautiful5196 that strongly suggests they may be the same person running an alt.
Money-Beautiful5196 comments on nearly every Routine-Badger post and always agrees with them.

The biggest red flag is the Olivia Rodrigo content: this is a rap subreddit, yet these two accounts are repeatedly the only ones posting or discussing her, often in the same threads across multiple posts.

Both accounts have hidden histories, so the full picture isn’t visible but there appears to be a clear pattern. Regardless of your opinion on Drake, these accounts appear primarily focused on pushing Drake-related negativity, and the repeated coordination is hard to ignore. Accounts like these make an already unmoderated subreddit even more insufferable. Maybe I’m expecting a little too much from this sub.

Anyone else noticing this lately?

I genuinely don’t understand why pretzels are considered a good snack.

They make you ridiculously thirsty (way more than chips), they’re always the disappointing ingredient that ruins chip mixes like Munchies, and the flavor is just incredibly bland and unsatisfying. They’re basically crunchy salt sticks that leave you wanting a better snack afterward. There’s dozens of way better snacks to fill that void.

Pretzels aren’t a snack, they’re just something you eat when the good snacks are gone.

Michael Scott is one of the most memorable characters in television history, yet we know surprisingly little about the people who shaped him. The show gave us glimpses into his childhood and relationships, but never introduced his parents or explored where his personality came from.

Do you think the show missed an opportunity by leaving Michael’s family mostly unexplored, or was keeping his background vague what made him more interesting?

When Trailer Park Boys Season 13 officially returns, what kind of version of the show do you think we’ll get? Are you expecting them to go back to the more grounded style of Seasons 1-7, where the show felt more realistic and had that low-budget documentary feel? Or do you think they’ll continue with the more exaggerated direction from later seasons, with characters like Donny and Leslie Dancer pushing the comedy into a more over-the-top style?

JP has hinted through some of his Instagram activity (including likes on certain comments) that they may be trying to return to the “old form.” Some fans have even mentioned that the 4K camera quality takes away from the original feel of the show and that a rougher documentary style fits Trailer Park Boys better.

What do you think Season 13 should be: a return to the classic Seasons 1–6 style, or a continuation of the newer, more exaggerated approach?

I have a working portable AC that produces insane amounts of water so it’s probably needing partial repair. It still cools a room. I got a new one but I have no idea what to do with this at this point. Do I just put it by the road?

This is not medical advice, and you should always follow professional first-aid guidance when possible.

When I was involved in an ATV crash at a remote cottage, my knee was ripped open badly enough that I could see my actual kneecap bone. Because of where we were, an ambulance couldn’t have reached me safely or quickly, so my friend’s dad had to drive me to the hospital himself.

Before we left, he wrapped my knee in Saran Wrap to cover the wound. When I eventually got to the hospital, the doctor praised him for thinking quickly and helping protect the injury during transport.

I’m sure there are situations where other first-aid methods are more appropriate, but if you’re in a remote location and dealing with a serious wound, having plastic wrap available may be better than having the injury exposed while waiting to get proper medical treatment.

Again, not medical advice just something that helped in a real emergency and may be worth knowing about. Use at your own risk.
