Some flippers, small time developers got pushed out when prices took a dive between Feb 2022-Jan 2023 but everything is going gangbusters again...for now. Anyone that has an acreage adjacent to a housing development just has to wait for the right time to sell for millions.

"Undefined expenses." Yeah, those words are doing a lot of heavy lifting here!

Lookin' for trouble...

Humour doesn't always translate well online. One man's tossed-off (dubiously amusing, admittedly) jibe is another man's severe pejoration. We should probably have a "humour" thread and keep it purely straight everywhere else.

I'm in on the rumble meet-up. I do have some brawn to countervail my mid-life moobs and paunch.

2020 was a pretty wild year in hindsight. Right up there with some of those tumultuous years like 1968. It will make for some great books, documentaries and museum exhibits one day.

Hey, I am 50+ years old but almost 6'3" and easily over 200.

Bring it on!

I'm picturing something like this, without the suits:

Yeah imagine that. I guess some people just don’t enjoy being randomly insulted and then gaslit about it afterwards.

Nah he described himself looking like Shrek before.

This thing is starting to get weird. Please throw in more physical stats. We wanna make sure they are clearly for a fight and not a dating app.

Not quite, but I know I can always count on you for a good laugh!

Same here!

How would we build the teams? I assume you'd be on MolsonExport's, while I'd be on rousseau's...? (If Chad was still there it would be a problem, because he'd definitely need to be on the team opposed to mine, while also being on the team opposed to MolsonEx...)

Says the guy who was bemoaning others' lack of sense of humour.

At least Esquire is actually funny. (And non-scatological, which is a plus in my books.)

I'm dashingly debonair. Girls tend to swoon in my wake when I walk by. I like long walks on candle-lit dinners and romantic candle-lit dinners on the beach. Also roman candles.

I'm a very spiritual person. I am not constrained by the physical realm. But I'll fight if I have to. Against fascism or Israel, or whatever.

Here's a video I did that sums up who I am.

There's a very rare truck I found on the classifieds that I'm really interested in and I might well go get it, it's in rural Ontario between London and Stratford (what are the odds!), so if I actually go there (probably next week or so) and you guys need a referee......




(... plus, it's an old diesel, which means it could actually puff a cloud of thick black smoke on MolsonEx while I take off.)

I found this beauty while doing some virtual exploration in the extreme west of southern Quebec (Sheenboro/Mansfield-Pontefract).



This is a very obscure area. I actually never made it past Campbell’s Bay on the QC side and everything past that is kinda mysterious. There are some nice views, however. And what looks like a nice 5 km-long beach just west of Sheenboro. And plenty of deserted beaches upstream accessible to boat owners. This was taken at the very end of civilization. Past that point one would enter forest roads:



For some reason the Google car kept going on the forest road for about 50 km. Likely didn’t realize they were no longer on a public road until it started looking like this:



I drove on forest roads in the past and there’s something intimidating about them. It feels like you’re clearly on your own, and the environment start feeling oppressive. I wonder if that’s what Australians feel like when they enter the Outback.

That's one of the most depressing houses I've ever seen.

[le calmar]

I just don’t get it when, on top of having very small windows when there’s clearly space for more/larger ones, they place them at the extremities and leave a huge windowless gap in the middle. I was kinda surprised to find semi-detached houses in that rural area though.
