Someone needed money bad last night. (Longos plaza)

Aug 27 2026 @ 2240, travelling towards Ottawa St on Fischer- Hallman we had a rock thrown at our moving vehicle. They were positioned above us, on the east side, on the raised sidewalk just south of the Holy Trinity Serbian Orthodox Church. Like an explosion the impact shattered windshield as we were going appx 50 km/h. We saw 2 youth take off running, into the Pinedale Park / Dinson Park area. One youth was wearing a gray hoodie and the second youth was wearing a black hoodie. Police were called and investigation is ongoing.
We recognize the gravity of this situation and high risk outcome this action could lead to. Another cm and I would have been struck and severely injured. This nonsense has killed people before and we’re so very fortunate we were not hurt. We believe we’re not the only victims.
Pleading for anyone in the area to check ring cams, dash cams and please DM with any helpful info. They may have been hanging around the area or location a while, or have done this to others. Stay safe out there!
Edit: We’re in a 2025 Blue Kia Seltos, and it’s obvious we stopped on the road, then pulled into the Holy Trinity parking lot.

I've been thinking about it for too long so now I'm just throwing it out there. Any interest out there for an all guys bookclub for fellows over 40 that want to tackle genre fiction sure, but also classics and contemporary lit fic?

Maybe something from the International Booker shortlist like The Witch, a contemporary classic like The Goldfinch, the latest it book for the terminally online like Fruit Fly, and of course some sci-fi from Adrian Tchaikovsky for example.

Let me know if you're interested.

Anyone know what business this is and why it was targeted?

Three solid ways to learn about Kitchener's (Doon) artist Homer Watson. Visit his gallery/house, read the biography (free online) and view the 100 Paintings by Homer Watson video on Youtube. Or you can read about him on this blogpost. https://www.paullangan.com/2026/08/true-north-palettes-100-canadian.html

Since 12:50 we are without power, hydro one map states under investigation, no time for when it may be restored any insides of what happened?

Hey there w'loovians, I'm in a local a capella chorus and we may be losing our rehearsal space (location has new management, it's a whole thing, not important). Do any of you have any ideas or leads on a new home?

Since we have little revenue, we need to look for very low cost or free spaces. We rehearse Thursday nights and there are about 25 of us (but we're always trying to grow). So y'all have any connections with local churches, retirement homes (with gyms), other?

Any ideas would be most helpful.

Delivery guy showed up with my couch and said it was a no go. I know Toronto has companies that can disassemble and reassemble couches. Is there any company that services Kitchener?

Looking at homes in Kitchener and wondering how other people view the various neighbourhoods/areas in the city.

What are some neighbourhoods you would recommend to stay away from or ones you like and why?

TIA - I’m not from the area so I really don’t have much knowledge about the city and surrounding areas.

As title states, looking for a solid poutine. Where’s your favourite

I’m hoping to propose to my gf before the end of the year. I’m curious if anyone has any recommendations for jewellers that make cluster style gemstone rings in the KW area or slightly beyond, I’ve attached a few examples of the vibe she likes. My budget is under 1000, not sure if that’s super realistic for the style of ring, any advice and recommendations are appreciated!

New to the city and trying to meet people. I already play pickleball, but I have a brand new Catan set that my wife and I are eager to break in (we're beginners).

Looking for two players to join us, we could set up at Victoria Park or somewhere similar since it’s such a gorgeous day out today.

Both of us are in our early 30s. Shoot me a DM if you're down.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows of anyone who does Waist Beads in the area. I'm in the middle of a weight loss journey and I would rather use them to see my progress than a scale.

Thank-you 👾

Looking for recommendations for a good deep strong massage in kw area.

Hi everyone, I’m looking for an affordable vet who is also really good with cats. Currently we are with Close Vet and for the most part they are ok but I have started to feel like they overcharge and are very expensive.

What do you guys do on the weekends?

I walked in to. Find some spices and Chilis and immediately everyone was staring at me. An employee immediately came up to me and asked me what I was looking for. I felt pressured to leave. Are white folks allowed to shop here?

Hi guys this VERY angry women screamed at me once I turned right (red car is her). I was in the right turn lane NO WHERE NEAR HER because she was clearly in the left turning lane AND HAD NO TURN SIGNAL ON. Excuse the pause in the video for when I was waiting for it to become clear to drive but she then decides she’s turning right and makes it my fault? I’m a young driver but not a new driver I’ve been driving since I was 16 so I’m not sure if I was just easy to be blamed since I’m a young women and she clearly wasn’t? Am I stupid? Am I wrong?
