reply

I live about 15 minutes from there.

reply

You live 15 minutes away from the Dean!! Get a picture of him!

reply

oh, no

reply

Don't worry, I'll leave your wife and kids alone. It's you I want!

reply

i thought you were in cabbagetown or something

reply

No, but my cousin lives there with her husband.

reply

Nicely manicured

reply

it's a city built in a park

reply

Looks like a pretty area to live in and raise a family👍
Your neighbors all seem to be upper middle class and take fine care of the lawns, gardens and tree lines.
Very nice.

Is that pond on the golf course the duck pond you sometimes mention walking to?

reply

that pond is only accessible through the golf course which i have never been in cause i am not a golfer. driven by it many times.

reply

Near a school, lots of trees, near downtown, nice house. 8/10

reply

that house is much better than mine.

reply

Fancy, I wish I lived there

reply

Nice neighborhood!

reply

Someone like really bad Zoomer music, and is super satisfied with their living situation. 🙄

reply

what's wrong with zoomer

reply

What’s wrong with working hard and being satisfied with one’s living situation?

This guy earned and lives well, that’s as it should be.

reply

Nothing is wrong with doing what you said, and it’s not what I criticized. Obnoxiously flaunting your own opulence publicly is douchey as all hell though, and is what I criticized. The guy is evidently a colossal egotist which can be easily gleaned from what he’s chosen to share, and the manner in which he’s chosen to share it.

reply

I wouldn’t call that neighborhood ‘opulent,’ just upper middle class and very inviting. Hell, I’d happily live there but it’s Canada, those damn winters up there would kill me!

hownos is a great guy, he’s certainly not a douchbag buddy.

reply

Sounding jealous is not a great quality either.

reply

Well, I’m getting strawmanned all over the place!

reply

Just my observation from reading the thread.

reply

Ultimately, I’m criticizing the poor kid’s immaturity. I pity him. I hope he comes to understand the world is vast and largely indifferent to him, and he begins to behave more accordingly, less trite. That music though, it’s right there for all to see.

reply

I’ve been blessed to be able to travel all over the world, but I’m always interested in seeing places that I’ve never been (like Canadia [sic]).

And, having travelled extensively, I know my place in the world; we’re all grains of sand on a beach - I might be a small pebble at best.

reply

Lay off the silly ‘straw man’ internet nonsense defense.

You insulted a very cool dude that was just sharing a part of his life with friends and you were just being mean.

I know hownos for six years now, he’s a good guy, no bullshit with him, ever.

reply

An innocent sharing of an ‘oh, if anyone is interested, here’s where I live’ clip, descends into WWIII.

reply

I swear Bro, I’m trying to be more polite here lately and I’m mostly succeeding✌️

It’s not easy, I want to tell some people to piss off but I’m attempting to be nice like you and my sweet GlennyGirl.

reply

90% of the posts on this thread were quite positive and relaxed and then we get the usual criticisms; it’s almost like some people aren’t happy if everyone’s having a nice time 🤷‍♂️

reply

I look to you and a couple of other good posters on how to post polite,
fun stuff.

I can get nasty sometimes but I’m trying to act better👍

Overall MC seems to be chugging along pretty well, we could use a few more good posters but I have faith that we’ll get them, it’s the best chat site on the interwebs!

reply

I’m just bored of all the asinine questions that a certain new poster clogs the boards up with; over 50% of the first page are his posts, making it look like a crap survey.

reply

Yeah, Benny is an odd duck. Some of his threads are quality and some are like, ‘do you jerk off to chicks with dicks?’

reply

Classic troll tactic - 10 nice posts, followed by 1 weird one.

reply

Yes, I’ve recognized the strategy.

I engage with the fun ones and avoid the kooky threads.

reply

I am who I am. I can be prickly. Deal with it. 🤷🏻‍♂️

reply

I wasn’t talking about you.

reply

Oh, good. I would hate to be accused of being a troll. I’m just a regular guy with a house and a vehicles, and kids, and a job, and everything. I’m just opinionated, I admit it. I only have one login, and it’s the same one I’ve used for the entire time here, and for years on IMDb.

reply

As Shogie said above, “Benny is an odd duck”, which confirms that we definitely weren’t talking about you.

We’re just a bunch of guys, in a similar situation; just think of this board as having a beer in your local.

reply

I just want folks to learn some restraint and humility. You’ll understand when you get older, just trust me on this. You youngsters, wow!

reply

I’m 56. The clue is in my username.

reply

Clearly, I think you’d agree with me, the kid who made this video is not in his 50s.

reply

`i am 60

reply

Then, don’t strawman me. None of the things I was accused of criticizing were what I actually criticized.

reply

Jerkoffs cry ‘straw man’

Nice to meet you jerkoff😆

reply

I don't think Hownos is trying to flaunt anything and he is not an egotist or being douchey. He is one of the best and nicest posters on here.

reply

I’ve never seen The Dean act mean, he’s a guy I’d chill with to some Motown or old country music out in my garage but I’d have rum and he’d prefer lemonade 😄

reply

I'm guessing the skyscrapers are in Toronto?

reply

yes, that's downtown toronto

reply

I looked up the population. Etobicoke is a fairly large city on its own.

reply

Looks lovely. I love to see lots of trees and green spaces.
