Loblaw reports $13.58B in Q1 revenue, as Reddit group's boycott kicks off (www.cbc.ca)

Loblaw Companies reported $13.58 billion in first-quarter revenue — a 4.5 per cent increase from a year earlier — on Wednesday morning, the same day that a group of frustrated shoppers said they would begin a month-long boycott of the grocery retailer....

Mongostein,

While Kenney was in power they also removed the ability to claim transit fares on your taxes. And changed the rules for overtime and stat holidays in favour of the employer.

They really hate the working class. (That means you too, rig pigs)

Mongostein,

Wrong and so what? You’re ok with them making it worse?

Mongostein,

Are you gay?

Mongostein,

Well that explains it! No more questions.

Mongostein,

Like in the same way everyone likes those little stress balls?

Mongostein,

Ah yes those are quite nice too. I also like the ones that go between your knees so your balls don’t sweat like a geyser.

Mongostein,

I’m wary of any feature film around 90 minutes. That’s typically the minimum length for a feature film, so it makes me wonder how much they stretched their story to achieve that. However, if a movie is like 75-84 minutes, I tend to think something like, “oh they didn’t care about reaching the minimum. They told their story without trying to stretch it.”

105-120 minutes is the sweet spot I think.

Anything over two hours and I start thinking, “this better be good”

Mongostein,

I do watch a lot of B movies, which has probably led to this bias. I think films needed to be 90 minutes for a theatrical release back in the 80s.

Mongostein,

A girl told a bunch of people I beat her up. She was eventually caught telling other lies about other people and I haven’t heard anything about it in years. But now I feel betrayed by friends that ostracized me for something I didn’t do and I don’t hang out with anyone any more. :/

Mongostein,

So the quote is “we don’t.”

What was the question asked?

Mongostein,

Thank you. I hate when articles do that.

I guess see it mostly in entertainment news.

Headline:“So-and-so wants to join X franchise”

Conversation: “Would you get interested in joining X franchise if an opportunity came up?” “Oh yeah sure why not?”

Mongostein,

An article? I can absorb information much faster in text form, and I can more easily go back if I missed something

Mongostein,

I think we collectively decided that “you’re welcome” doesn’t make sense. Welcome to what??

Mongostein,

Man, I better not have to walk home from the train station because I forgot I left my “PRIVATE STUFF - DO NOT OPEN” folder on couch.

Mongostein,

Man, I wish I was a deluded narcissist. Life sounds pretty good for them.

Mongostein,

Right right. OK let me amend: I wish I was a deluded narcissist born with a silver spoon in my mouth.

Mongostein,

Sure, but that’s not what I want from the news.

Mongostein,

Sure, and you can get that from shows like The Daily Show on The Comedy Network.

The news is supposed to be informative.

Mongostein,

But they’re viewer/profit driven.

That’s the problem right there.

Mongostein,

In the 80s? Segregated pools should have been long gone by then

Mongostein,

Ok yeah, but were there still segregated pools at that time?

Mongostein,

Ah. Ok gotcha. I was a little confused. Thanks
