A soup.
All I see is *************
Ah the ol “toilet plunger lodged 1.3m in the rectum” caper.
I was in charge with creating, designing, configuring, and running an e-commerce site on Shopify as well as responding to customer emails and orders. This was for a start-up. First orders would get a promo code for a 15% discount on a next purchase.
CEO tells me we need to get rid of stock fast as possible, so make a storewide discount on certain models. I go and do that.
We receive a bulk order of 50 of the discounted units while also using the 15% off promo code we sent out to early purchasers. Realized I should have put in a rule that doesn’t allow discounts to stack…
CEO and other members all unanimously voted to get rid of me a couple of hours later.
Oh man if you OP is trying to make Ottawa fun they can just forget about it. I lived there for over 10 years and I’m convinced the city doesn’t want to improve or be more fun. I left that place.
Derived from video game lingo and also the concept of “resource-maximizing”.
Oh mine were like “how do I explain my way out if this person I just walked past starts picking a fight with me”.
Ruminating on fake emotionally charged social altercations in my head.
It just kept happening. I couldn’t stop. Just felt the absolute need to “prepare” myself for bad events/fights with people so that I’d be “better prepared for it”. What a load of shit.
The mind is its own worst enemy sometimes.
They aren’t. They’re a party trick.
Fantastic and we as Canadians can give up on our goals of going full electric by 2030 because the population is priced out of these vehicles. Starting price is just shy of $50k cad for most available EVs.
I rode the busses in Hannover and I was so beyond impressed. Y’all truly live in the space age compared to here with your transit systems. I want you to experience ours so you can reconsider 🙃
In Ottawa, people who don’t have cars and rely on the public transit are motivated to buy cars because of how poorly it runs and how inconsistently it runs.
Our brand new very expensive light rail train has issues with the wheels staying circular and operating below 0 C. It goes down to -30C pretty regularly there.
Fun fact: the capital of Canada is trying the reverse: raise fares, cut service, and successfully lobby the government to force public servants into the office 3 days+ per week in the hopes of boosting public transport use. Let’s see who’s successful.

“Deep AI powers”.
Anytime I see a product boast about “AI powers”, I assume the tech itself is a scam.
AI powers, like the ability to load chat.openai on a browser? Is the average person running a 7B LLM locally on their tablet or laptop? Get the fuck out of here.
This has kept me from reaching out to all of my old friends. They ended up hanging out amongst themselves just like old times but I figured if they wanted me there with them too they’d invite me. Since they haven’t, they’re probably fine with me not being there/dont want me there. Oh well. Still makes me sad about missed interactions but I guess it is what it is.
I used to be toxic (maybe I still am?) so this is my punishment for it.
I asked my mom if she ever made mistakes and without skipping a beat she just says no. Looked at me like I was asking something very strange. I was maybe 13 or so when I asked.
Both things that were highly forbidden even to talk about.
Ended up having lots of bad risky sex in uni.
