My friends have a Shawarma place in the Danforth or York. They have Lebanese food also. Its on Pape. I will get back to you with the name. Pho Pasteur is in Toronto somewhere and open 24/7. Yes there is one in Boston also. I like the spring rolls and the sauces. Bahn MI brothers is nearby. Worth the trip downtown IMO.
I dislike ill-mannered people in self-checkouts who can't wait 5s and must start sending their shit to your groceries while still bagging them.
Always drink upstream from the herd.
What kind of asshole asks for no pepper in their food? A1 is not a fucking spice.
I quit racing xc in 1994.

just watched Dr. Strange for the first time. Such a perfect movie to watch high

I just saw a recipe that called for a ten ounce can of water.
Donner party cookbook?
It was a recipe for ground goat.
Apparently the best fat bikes for snow have wheels replaced with skis?

It would be interesting to see a plot of average body weight against bicycle most commonly used.
Might be a repost, but a cool one at that. For all you car/engineering nerds out there. Click the link for ongoing details and real shots of the vehicle shown in the rendering.

^ Stopped at "Magic Mike"
My family is just awful. Circling like buzzards. Just shameful. Fighting over a chair....
Rythm or beat in all genres of music is dominated by lower tones/bass. I suspect this comes from the comfort we find in hearing our heartbeats doing so in a regular manner.
Well, that's what happens when you play musical chairs.
just saw a commercial that included the statement "because six is greater than one".
Chair is is mine. Zipper on cushion replaced for $4. Cat likes it...
Trump? Wait no, that's too advanced of math for him.
no it was some prescription allergy drug.
Went for a walk at lunch and I'm pretty sure I saw enough clothes on the side of the road to put together an outfit. What leads one to lose their trousers in such a fashion?
Manatees do not have swim bladders to help regulate their buoyancy and stay horizontal in the water column. Several things help, including the dense ribs located towards the front of the body and no hind limbs. Another method used with great results is actually flatulence. Manatees release or store gasses in their system to drop or rise at will.
I have a lot of respect for any creature that has evolved to get fat and laze around in warm water.
You'd love Florida.
I have an aversion to piss warm water and think that swimming in cold dirty water somehow makes you a better man. Tarpon are tasty carp. Gators are scary no matter what.... And if you get in the water with them you deserve to get chomped...

Folks get so pissed when I say this. If you ride in poor conditions enough. Your bike and wallet will take the hit. Ride on muddy spring trails. Your moving parts will get dirty, Bearings will get contaminated. Bunch of other stuff too. Most bottom brackets get worn by contamination not cycles. If your bike creaks and its driving you crazy. Quit riding in poor conditions asshole. Spray your muddy bike with a garden hose? No. Wait until the mud dries and wipe it off. Much better idea. Cassette/Chain greasy? Do not spray degreaser on it and spray it with a garden hose while it is on your bike. You have no idea where that degreaser goes and no control over what gets degreased. If your cranks keep coming loose. Buy a wrench and tighten it up. They will never fix themselves. Attention is required on your part. No excuses can be offered.
shopping for bars drives me nutz
A pirate walks into a bar and the bartender tells him he has a steering wheel sticking out of his pants. The pirate replied, "aaarrrgh, it's drivin me nuts".
Why the hell are cycling jackets so damn expensive?!? Thought about picking one up for chilly Spring morning rides but not at those ridiculous prices.
(Snow) fat biking is not mountain biking in my books. Different gear, different trail needs, different skills and mainly different mind sets. It is closer to cyclocross IMHO, just more social.
@ICEBALL585 skip the bike branded stuff and buy generic wind breakers and such. Spend $80 instead of $200.
@StiHacka I read that as "just more special". Which might fit.
Have you ever had sky goat?
