Greetings from the left lane of the 401 :D
Fellow Canadian here. I feel such shame. They should be disqualified.
I see your Lord of the Rings, and raise you Jurassic Park.
Hey, my uncle was the engineering project manager at Bruce for years! Small world, lol
Fave line from that mp3 was always, Let's play hide and go fuck yourself!
Canadian here; I was in high school during the Great Ice Storm of 1998. Our infrastructure is built to handle tough winters, and was still completely decimated by that much ice. Entire hydro corridors collapsed like popsicle stick towers. People had no power for weeks straight. And again, that's from a place thar expects long, hard winters.
Kinda feels like that commercial is more relevant than ever.
All I'm asking is WHO'S ON FIRST?!
Some of them are David, but most of them are Dave
Not in the face, NOT IN THE FACE
Toss a chunk of hardened sugar in a bowl, cover with a damp paper towel, microwave for 10-20s.
Just last week I found a huge plasma TV, with both hdmi and coax hookups, at an estate sale for $4. Hooked my dusty NES up to it, and immediately lost my husband to Mike Tyson's Punch-Out. Didn't have to download a gosh darn thing.
Bend over and I'll show you!
I played Pokémon when it first came out, and loved the idea of pokemon go. My husband (who had no idea what pokemon was) joined me, and some of my fondest memories of that time were us walking around downtown, and him excitedly exclaiming things like OMG I JUST GOT A BROCCOLI SHEEP.
"It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grammes a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be REDUCED to twenty grammes a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it." - George Orwell, 1984
The Total Recall remake was a bland, uninspired generic action movie that completely skipped over the whole point of the original; namely, the ever-lingering question of "Is this real? Or Recall?"
Love the tool holder "clearance is clearance" rule showing on those vertical passes, lol
Feel like THIS is how you cross metal with Disney. https://youtu.be/js7mx3EgiDU?si=M3tr76G5_Y3t_OVT
Machinist here, and one who actually makes the exact parts you're referring to! It's called a rotary manifold, and consists of a two main parts: the housing, which is essentially a hollow cylinder, and a shaft, usually made of hardened steel, which rotates freely inside the housing. The housing and shaft have independent oil/hydraulic fittings, and the electrical wiring harness runs straight up through a hole in the center of the assembly, so nothing gets twisted during rotation.
Black fly, the little black fly; black fly wherever I goooo; I'll die with the blackfly pickin' my bones, in north On-tar-i-o, in north On-tar-i-o.I have a cabin on the Abitibi. We do NOT go up there during June, lol.
I'm a lathe operator by trade, and I know EXACTLY the video you're talking about - most horrifying thing I've ever seen. At least after seeing it, there's a zero percent chance I'll ever, for any reason, reach over my lathe.

McDonalds pizza.
The one on the right is a Canada goose, the one on the left is (I believe?) a Cackling goose.
My dad (and my father-in-law) were the type of men who don't share feelings with words. Sometimes, it's with brightly colored M&M dispensers.
I now collect M&M dispensers. That is, I do not actually collect (nor care about) M&M dispensers, but I was once on the hunt for a particular one to give to my brother at Christmas, and my father-in-law grabbed that and RAN with it. He gives me 2-3 every Christmas. Every birthday. M&M radios. Plushies. Flags. A 3.5ft tall grocery store display M&M that lives beside my TV and holds my DVDs now. My husband had to make an entire wall of shelves to display them. 1/)
Yup. Often additional Healthcare that isn't provided by the province (vision and dental, plus others sometimes) and teeny tiny retirement plans, where the employee contributes a small percent of each paycheck, and the company then matches the contributions.
Caretaker presidents of the U S A!
I am a machinist and I STILL have to do this one in my head on a daily basis.
I JUST watched this movie for the first time maybe a week ago, and was mesmerized by the special effects. Felt like the pinacle of stop-motion.
