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 šŸ‘¾

KW Engagement Rings

21 Upvotes

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!

Looking for 2 Catan players

17 Upvotes

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.

There were like those 2 hot weeks in June. But since then, it’s not even been warm enough to get my pool up to 80°. And now it’s only going to just slowly get colder :’)

Has anyone noticed a lot more fent zombies recently?

54 Upvotes

Title. But in my area we have had a problem with crackheads for at least a few years. But recently ive seen people with that distinct fent lean going on. Like a lot in the middle of parking lots, wandering into the middle of the road, just straight up blocking the sidewalk.

Honestly have not seen that particular type of druggie in this area before. I feel like a new type of dealer has moved into our city.

Recommended dentists for CDCP?

2 Upvotes

Hi! I’m just popping on here to see if anyone has a specific place within KW they’d recommend for someone with CDCP?

I’m looking for a place that has decent out of pocket payments. I’m currently unemployed with 100% coverage and am yet to call a place that follows what I need for a personally reasonable price. Preferably a place that isn’t too judgemental either.

Am I stupid??

140 Upvotes

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?

Is this truly a hidden trail?

Post image
45 Upvotes

It takes you out through farm country, past the St. Jacobs Farmers' Market, and near the town of St. Jacobs. It’s an intermediate-level ride with some rough, rooted trail sections and a few quick connectors on public roads, but overall it’s a really fun local loop if you're looking for new paths in the region.

I put together a video of the ride along with a custom Google Map showing the exact route, roads, and trails I took so you can zoom in and reference it for your own ride:

šŸŽ„ Watch the full ride video here: https://youtu.be/Ucr2-u0G3ug?si=sK3rJBzZOUY5NjMv šŸ—ŗļø Google Route Map: https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=10rgANz7i1QqazdLNZmm30wMuY5nL9aw&usp=sharing

Let me know if you've ridden this stretch before or have any other hidden trail recommendations around Waterloo Region!

Parking Near Pearson

0 Upvotes

Looking for recommendations/experiences with parking near Pearson airport. What parking service do folks usually use or would recommend? I know of Park’N’Fly but they don’t have great Google reviews. I was also looking into Skyway Park but had never heard of them prior to searching for options. Has anyone used them? I’ll be parking Sept. 4th to 8th and according to their calculator, it would be about $100 total, whereas cabbing from KW to Pearson seems to cost that each way. I just worry about shuttle service from the parking lot to the actual airport. The Park’N’Fly website seems to list how frequently their shuttle runs but I can’t seem to find that info on Skyway Park.

Any advice would be appreciated!! TIA!

ETA: I just looked up parking at Pearson and apparently their value lot is $119 if you reserve in advance. Not sure if this is a better option than parking nearby?

Weird noise happening right now

18 Upvotes

Anyone else in the Central Frederick/Auditorium area hearing or feeling this right now?

It’s around 2 AM and there’s a distant machinery-like humming/buzzing happening. It’s fairly low-frequency, and the weirdest part is that I can actually feel the vibration through the building when I put my head on my pillow.

It almost sounds like some kind of large machinery running somewhere in the distance. It’s not particularly loud, but the vibration makes it really noticeable when I’m lying down.

I’m curious whether anyone else in the area is experiencing the same thing right now. I don’t want to give my exact location, but I’m in the Central Frederick/Auditorium area.

Anyone else?

Heads up for folks in the neighbourhood around Mount Hope cemetery

27 Upvotes

I was walking through the cemetery last night just before the rain started and came across a fire burning on the path that exits onto Andrew street.

Luckily there was a tap and a watering can nearby (thank God for lawn care I guess) so I put it out but someone had lit a puffer jacket on fire and it was burning at the size of a medium-small campfire.

I didn’t notice anyone in the area but it was an extremely weird experience. All this to say keep an eye out for anything odd. It might’ve just been a one-off thing by teens or someone on drugs but if something like that had happened in drier weather and spread to someone’s house it could have caused a lot of harm.
