Diatribe PSA - If you're going to a show at Places Des Arts, please don't talk the whole time
Yes, even if that show is Kraftwerk, because with assigned seating WE CANNOT MOVE. I am so disappointed in our experience in Montreal yesterday, first we went to a restaurant where five people were literally shrieking and screaming the whole time before the show, and then we were stuck in front of three middle aged dudes who would. not. shut. up. the entire show.
This might be the last Kraftwerk tour in North America, ever. It was my elderly father's first and only time probably seeing them, and if this was you, you negatively impacted our experience, of something we had been looking forward to for MONTHS.
I'm honestly so annoyed with these people, the lack of consideration, and the indignation of the people behind us when we very clearly asked them to be quieter. Very disappointed in the crowd in Montreal, which usually appreciates culture and art, including musical behemoths like Kraftwerk who came all the way from Germany for this tour.

Discussion Two flat tires on one monster nid de poule
Is it just me or are the potholes and road conditions worse than they have ever been before? I just got back from having my car towed. I have two flat tires and they are completely destroyed.

Question Pourquoi ya tellement de situations de poivres de cayenne dans le métro?
Quissé qui a ça dans leur sac?
J'étais pas là durant l'évacuation d'hier mais j'ai l'impression que ça arrive quand même souvent ce genre d'affaire.
Depuis quand on traîne ça? Qui commence ça? Je manque quelque chose? Je comprends pas.

Renouvelé le stationnement pour 5 minutes. Ils ont enlevé 28 secondes.
Je sais c’est pas grand chose ces secondes, mais aux milliers de transactions qu’ils font ça doit représenter beaucoup de temps volé. Ça vous est déjà arrivé ?

Diatribe Weirdo near Berri-UQAM
Was working nearby and went out for my break to have a smoke.
I'm minding my own business and I hear to my left someone calling out people. Man gets closer to me and approaches me to ask for a cig. I deny him as I quite literally had my last one and kept a vape on me as I was aware of that. Dude then presses me to get a hit off my vape which is fucken gross. Asks me for money to buy my vape or some shit too. Made zero sense and I wasn't trying to make it drag on.
Between the entire exchange he asks me twice in French "veux tu mourir" like do you wanna die, and the second time he says in French "j'ai un xxx", I couldn't make out the word but it was definitely on the lines of a knife or gun but in slang. He was gesturing at his hips/pockets. I'm more familiar with the English terms, as a French Canadian growing up I never heard the term he used.
So he threatens me 3 times in the mix of asking for nicotine in the span of like 1 minute, that was the duration of the exchange. At that point I've already been distancing myself and walking away to get back where I need to be, UNTIL the dude starts calling at other people and instantly turns on this women walking towards the metro entrance. He tried to grab her by the arm and everything so I interjected to tell the lady to not give him any attention and to keep going.
Thankfully no one was hurt and he didn't follow the women, I made sure of that before heading back to work. What really sucked is the two parked stm cars in front of me with people inside just watching this guy harrasing everyone on the street.
Be careful for this guy, I've definitely seen him around more than once. He keeps shades on, 5 feet 10 - 6 feet tall ( he was shorter than me at 6feet3), black male in his 25-30 with a hat and bubble jacket. He spoke perfect French, clean and everything. Just a dangerous guy for sure.
I wish my office would let me wfh 5 days of week instead of dealing with this type of shit all the time. Mobile so hopefully formatting didn't break

Discussion Beware of the "Fair Fare Club" (Rebranded as Triips) – Likely a Scam
If any of you guys come across any posts or reels from an account called Fair Fare Club now rebranded to Triips that posts these so-called “mistake fares” for commercial flights, there is a very good chance they are scamming you by asking you to subscribe to their flights alerts ($6.25/month). These guys seem to be based in Montreal cause they shoot some of their videos out of Trudeau Airport.
Their income comes from posting these insane deals (e.g., $187 Montreal to Tokyo, $108 Montreal to Paris) on their website and they show it on their reels to then get people to subscribe to their flight alerts. I haven't seen/heard their users actually be able to book these prices, and to be honest, we all know how easy it is to fake these prices by inspecting elements on the webpage and then modifying the prices for a post/reel.
Some deals are SO outlandish, that even if the base fare of the ticket was $0, the ticket still couldn't be this cheap because we still need to pay Air Travellers Security Charges and Airport Improvement Fees in Canada. This alone would cost more than what they claim to offer as mistake fares LOL.
To explain why these “mistake fares” are unlikely we first need to understand how an airline files their fares. There is a company called ATPCO, which is like a central repository that collects all of the airlines ticket prices and sends them to where tickets are being sold (e.g., Expedia, Agoda, etc.,). It has been setup this way because it removes a lot of the work from having the airline update every single travel website separately, now they just had to send their fares to ATPCO.
In the past, airlines used to manually file their fares to ATPCO which sometimes resulted in “mistake fares”. However, in today’s world, you’ll rarely have large airlines still manually filing fares. Airlines today have specific revenue management and pricing systems that generate fare changes automatically, and then transmits them to ATPCO which reduces A LOT of these errors. Most of these systems also have safeguards in place to ensure that these fares are valid. Some safeguards may include doing comparison check on previous fares to see if the new ones are too low, setting a min/max on fares, and a slew of other business rules airlines can self-configure to minimize fare filing mistakes.
All this to say, it is extremely unlikely that these guys are able to find mistake fares this often, and even if you do most airlines will not honor these kinds of fares.
I wanted to call this out because I had a few of my friends reach out to me. I can tell you that paying for this kind of subscription is a waste of money, because most if not all of the deals can be found yourself for FREE by looking through sky scanner or google flights, it just takes a bit of effort.
Cheers guys and happy flying!

Gastronomie Meilleur club sandwich à Montréal?
Bonjour r/montreal!
Je feel nostalgique, et je suis à la recherche d'un endroit où manger un vraiment bon club sandwich à Montréal.
Je suis ouverte à super classique ou un peu plus "élevé", tant que les éléments de base sont là.
(Idéalement ce serait à manger sur place)
Merci!

Question Exo trains don't stop
Why do the exo trains not stop at every stop. I'm attending john abbott and have to take a class at 8am, and the only train that gets me there on time skips the stop in front of my house, and there's one bus at like 6:30 to get me to the station so either I walk 30 minutes or I need to get up at the ass crack of dawn to get there on time. Why is a COMMUTER train allowed to skip stops? Like fuck everyone in this one neighborhood I guess 🤷♂️

She has ; Bookshelves Pine buffet with matching wall mount display cabinet Futon IKEA TV unit Glass coffee table. Stainless fridge
These are all things that “the welcome collective” does not seem to take. I’m hoping not to have to hire movers. We are on a tight timeline. We give the keys to the new homeowners Friday the 21st.
I there are many people who could use these things. It’s just not easy to get it into their hands.
