Absolutely. Some people would have you trumpet the positives and downplay the negatives. You don't have to be mean, but you should be complete and you should be honest. If it was either a good or a bad experience then you should say so. I think maybe some other people mean that you shouldn't...

Well, of course I don't keep them. I borrow them, I play with them, and then I give them back. I'm not some kind of breast-thieving monster! That would be wrong, and I'm a gent. :)

I didn't say there was no place for it here. There is a politics section, and that's a very appropriate place for people to go and argue their agenda as much as they like. I don't mind that. I don't like for politics to make its way out into the regular monger areas, even and including the...

All of this, plus if you go back far enough Quebec spent money for parties and public entertainment, a la Rome, in a general sense (and some infrastructure, yes, like the Metro) and skimped on maintenance for years. Instead of proper maintenance it was an abundance of patches and quick fixes...

He's a little hard boiled for this light hearted discussion. Probably more like an Am Caulfield. lol

I'm not sure from the context whether you mean this board, a politics board, or the politics thread. On either a political board or the politics thread then it's almost a given in this day and age that things are going to be polarized, and not everyone is going to have an intelligent discussion...

When they spot them they call the house detective!!! From 1938. :)

That's true, and it's a problem on this board, but it's also understandable because of the way the board is set up. The ladies are not here (so much) for fun public discussion and to pass the time. For all that they provide context and a useful point of view and information they're here...

Yes, again I guess it's a question of perspective and individual thought processes. I always have social dates elsewhere but never have them here, so when I'm on MERB I don't really think about it per se, but when you bring it up it seems obvious, given all the recent chat about social dates...

It is, and no problem as far as that goes. I have specific interests (travel, politics and current events) and when I want to discuss those in anything other than generalities then I go to other specialty boards to discuss them with other people who are as knowledgeable about them as I am. When...

Dodo, I've gotta ask. You're clearly passionate about food, much more than you seem to be about mongering, and there's absolutely zero wrong with that, but I'm struggling to understand why all the food posts are being put on this board, a mongering board, and why you aren't exercising all of...

trolling for dollars....

Everybody has their buttons, and things that irritate them when reading posts on a bulletin board. Is it overposting? Oversharing? Boasting? Disrespect? Whatever? (there's hundreds of different things it could be) For me it's usually the inability to look at more than one side of an issue or...

I wish I had shares in the orange cone business. sigh.

I think the taxi snitches got small rewards for snitching. I doubt the john and companion trade is such that the loss of business would affect either the taxi companies or the drivers themselves, so I'd guess that it woukd rely entirely on the oersonal sense of ethics and morals of the driver I...

"the primacy of rational scientific inquiry is being restored." - RFK Jr. :)

Ah, you're probably right. My bad. You get programmed to think a certain way...... :)

I'm going to give this the benefit of the doubt and assume you're not trolling. First off, the ladies are generally referred to (at least here) as SPs (service providers) and not SBs. Secondly, since what makes someone good is very subjective you'd need to be a lot more specific about what...

I've lived in places where people were perptually afraid of having to go to John school, and of taxi snitch programs etc. Does that kind of program even exist in Quebec? It just occurred to me that I've never seen anyone here discuss it. I'd be curious to hear whether anyone has had experience...
