    Good poutine?

    Eh fair enough. But I'm a picky drunk so that should count for something :p

    Good poutine?

    I would've agreed with you a while ago but I had some smoke meat poutine in Ottawa and it was fantastic. It's good drunk food.

    Balls banned from school

    I heard about this on the news this morning. This is hilarious. Thank God I'm no longer in school and don't have any kids. As for the rest of you...good luck! :p

    Car Oil

    I used to be on TSC but I totally forgot my username haha. I'll sign up again eventually as I need to do a head gasket job sooner or later. Consumption is a little worse than normal (was previously using Amsoil) but my car had a weird oil leak issue around the oil filter a while back that...

    Car Oil

    FWIW I use Rotella T6 in my suby and in my old *** bike. The benefit of this arrangement is that whenever Canadian Tire has a sale I can buy in bulk and kill two birds with one stone. It's fantastic! Use the search for further details, as this topic has totally been discussed before.

    Is Tuition Really THAT Unreasonable in Ontario?

    ^^that's a great post! An example of a university/college joint arrangement is Durham College and UOIT. But from what I've heard even that arrangement is strife with political shenanigans. There's a long way to go indeed.

    Good poutine?

    Oh wait...the poutine up at Moose Winooski's in Barrie has never let me down. Also, there's this place in Kensington Market that offers butter chicken poutine. It's quite good.

    Is Tuition Really THAT Unreasonable in Ontario?

    It depends...but if you're talkin hourly then ya haha. Those engineers don't go home. Being an engineer in automotive sucks unless you land a sweet design job. Probably not the best example for engineering. Closest comparison is consulting...and if you're on the bottom rung (and i am....)...

    No snow in Toronto for a few weeks

    Anyone know what the prediction is for how snowy this winter is going to be? I want to know whether or not I should bother buying new bindings for my snowboard. :D

    Is Tuition Really THAT Unreasonable in Ontario?

    I was really close to signing up for an automotive technican course instead. My two choices at the time were mechanical engineering or auto mechanic. My dad was a millwright so I had nothing but respect for blue collar work. After thinking it over and discussing it a few times with my...

    Is Tuition Really THAT Unreasonable in Ontario?

    It's horrendous. I wasn't aware of a ranking system, but that's probably because I was never getting grades anywhere good enough to be ranked. While I have absolutely no problem blaming people for being worthless, lazy idiots with entitlement issues, I can't say that this is the case for...

    I was never invited to those parties :p I guess my golf game wasn't advanced enough.

    Is Tuition Really THAT Unreasonable in Ontario?

    That's why I got into the program as well, but one year in the auto industry working for Magna soured me on the entire idea. :p I do construction now. It's a really good industry and some of these female architects are pretty hot haha.

    Is Tuition Really THAT Unreasonable in Ontario?

    Engineering is a tough industry, and a lot of the people I graduated with only went into that program because they didnt know what they wanted to get into in terms of work. For some reason people equate "engineering" to doing "cool stuff" or something. The reality is that, outside of...

    Is Tuition Really THAT Unreasonable in Ontario?

    Don't be sorry. It's true. :p U of T's a horrible place to be LOL. As a graduate of their engineering program, I can tell you right now that it's a cut-throat environment in there, and I don't see how anybody would be able to work a job that pays enough to cover tuition/books/food/etc...
