PIPPIN: I didn't think it would end this way.
GANDALF: End? No, the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass, and then you see it.
PIPPIN: What? Gandalf? See what?
GANDALF: White shores, and beyond, a far green country under a swift sunrise.
PIPPIN: Well, that isn't so bad.
GANDALF: No. No, it isn't.

Currently searching for a roommate. All of my friends are lazy and don't want to move out and don't want to live with a random and also don't want to live alone although I would prefer it the cost is too damn high.

So in my case I won't be buying a home or living on my own anytime soon.

took me a month to find a condo rental this time. last year it was much easier. prices have increased $100+ in the downtown core for 1 bedroom. pissening. My agent said it was the combination of lack of inventory (people not renting out/moving out, no new condo/apt development coming online) and higher housing prices forcing people to rent vs buy.

The Chinese are looking for a spot to park their money. They're buying up all the houses in the GTA which is the cause for the high prices. People nowadays are foregoing the inspections just to get the homes. BC put in a tax to stop these foreign buyers inflating the house prices but now they're just coming to Toronto.
I've got a condo in Markham that will be ready in 2019
Other than that… anyone who isn't in the market… is fked. Either live up in Barrie and commute or rent forever.

Why rent out or sell a place you can charge tourists nightly for?

Also could never get down with sitcoms, just a personal taste issue.

I told them I didn't like it and had no interest in watching the series. They pleaded to me that it was worth it and I had to watch it. I just said I didn't like it, I didn't like the mythical world setting as it reminded me of mid-evil times setting which I hate. So I've only watched 1 and only 1 episode of GoT.

A friend who has cable did give me his password so I can watch full Olympic event feeds streamed on the internet. It has been pretty amazing.

stay safe Toronto brahs
http://globalnews.ca/news/2903539/3-...carborough-on/
Three people were killed in a reported stabbing incident east of downtown Toronto Thursday afternoon and police say a crossbow was found at the scene.
Toronto police officers responded to Lawndale Road, in the Eglinton Avenue East and Markham Road area, just before 1 p.m. for a reported stabbing.
Police initially said on Twitter that officers found two victims without vital signs, but Toronto Paramedic Services confirmed to Global News they treated two males and a female at the scene who were later pronounced dead.
My question is, if you get hit by a crossbow, why do you report to the police as a "stabbing". I mean, clearly no one came up to you and stabbed the arrow through you, right?
