It's nothing reportable. Just annoying. Asking the same question over and over. I've already answered it at least twice. It's like this person forgets they have already asked me. It's been over a month or so - not constant.
I agree...it must be very annoying. I'm also annoyed by the US and Canada haters....oh my country is better oh boooo no mine is better boooo mine is.....so annoying. It's okay to complain but sometimes it goes to extremes...sheesh!!

I strongly dislike all the whining in general. Stop whining and go fix it if the taxes are so darn high. (As an example.)

Whining gets on my nerves fast.

When I used to work with the kids, they knew better than to whine. If they whined, I would ask, "Do you need a nap?" If the whining continued, it was nap time!

I've been thinking about him a lot lately. Starting to suspect he either gave up and moved to Germany or he got another ban.

Or he won Lotto Max and bought a private island.... and didn't invite us :mad:

That's the idea I'm in active denial about. That he got another temporary ban and said "Eff this" and walked away. Not that I would blame him. It can be hard to separate yourself from the drama on the forum at times. It was hard for me to learn at first. (Honestly, I watched scylla. She's my hero!)

That class action lawsuit.... I posted in there months ago that class action lawsuits were notorious ripoffs and all the claimaints would be better off saving their money and re-applying. Now some of them are starting to come to that conclusion. Months ago, I would've quoted them and said "This is what I recommended long ago! I told you guys!"

I'm still tempted to... a little. But have no desire to stir up that pot.

Considering how many times I saw him in various threads making posts that seemed to be worded as rudely and offensively as possible, no great surprise. He even had the stones to tell me he knew what my wife was like better than I did, the fact he'd never as much as spoken to her was apparently irrelevant.

I don't get the people complaining so much about Canada, if they don't like it why are they coming/staying here? I mean there's going to some things they don't like, but if it's so bad all you can do is complain...

There is a boatload of things wrong with this country, but not enough to call it a horrible one.

(Totally off topic but I am impatiently awaiting the quarterly update!!!)

I think a lot of the people complaining have no idea how lucky we are in Canada/USA. I don't think I really do either, but I know well enough to not complain. Some users here have shared stories that have helped open up my eyes.

No country is perfect, but if they have so many gripes about Canada, they should go somewhere better suited to their lifestyle

There's a guy who is a "friend" of my BIL. Now I love my BIL, he's a nice dude and he's funny. But this "friend" CONSTANTLY belittles French Canadians or Canadians in general. Now that my BIL has wonderful me in his family, he had to tell this "friend" to STFU several times... But he doesn't ::)
