When I see a young couple in a coffee shop and they're both staring at their phones instead of interacting with each other I tell myself I might not be in such a bad predicament by staying single. Back to my book.

Any comment from the Summer Enjoyers about this high humidity that is now the norm?

Can we agree that at 15 bookings in a month, you sort of tested the limits of the system? Are you willing to offer them management consulting services to implement the "systems" and "processes" to seamlessly manage their cancellation workflow (lol...) As you say, Forever is as professional as...

As you know, there is a large gap between indy level and agency rates. I`m talking about a small increase here. It`s not sustainable to have a market where demand exceeds supply.

I don`t think they will "skyrocket", but I`ve been thinking for a while that agency rates are probably too low for the market. Yes folks, too low. Don't send tomatoes my way please. When demand (for services), exceeds supply (of labour), prices should raise. This seems to be the situation we`ve...

Taking the money of a private cartel to give it to a State monopoly? ;)

Not to brag about my ability to sense the zeitgeist, but you saw it on merb in my threads before the media talked about it: Nostalgia for the 90's (see my nostalgia thread): https://www.lapresse.ca/societe/2026-06-04/quand-la-nostalgie-des-annees-1990-nous-prend.php Controversial sexy...

Tall (5'9''+), slim, fit, yoga or Pilates enthusiast, no tattoos, educated, unencumbered by life, enjoys intellectually stimulating conversations. This thread is about a fantasy, right?

In other words, if it ain't broken don't fix it. These random brands come up.with "innovative" designs that attempt to solve a problem that doesn't exist. Yes, I am a traditionalist.

Never tried it, but it screams "gimmick". My 2 cents: stick with reputable brands, regular models.

That's why I keep saying that we should make it socially acceptable to say "I don't like Summer". It's not the Summers we grew up with, folks.

They're richer on average and they have a higher number of "rich" and "very rich" people.

Exactly what I was thinking. My expectations were very low (and they were met), knowing how so many people are time wasters. I learned it here ;)

Trying to sell something on Marketplace is a quick lesson in how we are surrounded by idiots.

I mean... That's a beautiful renoviction, no? ;)

Add "when everyone in public wasn't staring at their phone 90% of the time" and this pretty much summarizes why modern life sucks. Congrats.

Will people stare at me with a strange look if I go there dressed like that?

Since there was no trial, because he pleaded guilty, there will be much left unknown. When I have the opportunity I will check the court records to at least have the list of the crimes he pleaded guilty to. I will update the thread in due course. Was consent given freely and expressed...

If the journalist is reporting the facts accurately, what you are saying is incorrect.

As I mentioned in my original post, we have to be careful in expressing an opinion, because the JdeM provides a notoriously incomplete picture of the criminal cases they cover. We don't even know the exact crimes he pleaded guilty to! I am not a lawyer, but I am a regular observer of the...
