You should reformulate this, because you cannot be "dumb" and "technically smart" at the same time. I'm interested in the distinct sub-categories that you mix up here.

With respect to client math, it is much simpler: #joke

They must be active in some areas more than others. In my neighbourhood, I've seen them a couple of times check stop signs around a park where kids play, which is exactly what we'd want them to do. Several drivers were caught.

That's funny! To elaborate on my poetic rant that you are referring to: I don't dislike cars, although I used to like them more when they were simple machines and not computers on wheels; what I dislike is all the vanity–and if I wanted to be mean, vacuity–that surrounds the F1 event.

How could I forget speed limits? By the way, has anyone ever seen an SPVM cop with a radar in hand, except maybe around schools at the beginning of the school year?

A Hentaivirus?

Exactly. Often used in reserved bus lanes. Bus drivers hate it (honking their horn) when someone stops to drop someone off, thus blocking traffic. "It's only 30 seconds". Wrong answer. It's not a no parking, it's a no stopping. Ensures fluidity of traffic and decreases the risk of accidents due...

5:30 a.m. Freshly brewed coffee The stillness of the crisp Spring morning air Sunrise on the horizon The only soundtrack being the song of all the birds With a couple of cardinals in the foreground Grateful that it is still possible to find beauty in the city.

L'absence de tels services est la preuve que la demande n'existe pas (sauf rares exceptions). En économie, s'il y a une demande, en l'absence de barrière d'entrée sur le marché, une offre de service va se développer. Ici, ce n'est pas le cas. J'en conviens que le monde change très rapidement...

Salut @mtlspacial , Je pense qu'on se rejoint sur l'essentiel du message. Je ne vais certainement pas vous tirer de roches. Quand vous dites que "le marchandage de sexe semble plus venir d'un besoin évolutionnaire", cela revient à dire que cela fait partie de la nature humaine. Par nature...

Moué, chu trop occupé à flasher avec mon char su' Sainte-Cath!

This might be the most ignored traffic sign. By the way, do you know what it means?

Tu as dû manquer plusieurs de mes blagues et de mes discours explicatifs, car je ne suis pas toujours "négatif". J'ai un regard parfois acerbe, mais je crois assez juste sur le monde qui nous entoure.

À l'aube du Grand Prix de Montréal, ce sera une fois de plus l'occasion pour les parvenus, les pimps, et les frais-chiés de tout acabit de projeter leur insignifiance au son du moteur de leurs bolides, qu'ils feront rugir inutilement à travers les ruines de la rue Crescent.

You wouldn't know it because the Canadiens are in the playoffs, but the Montreal Grand Prix is in 11 days. One month earlier than usual this year.

Thank you for sharing your story. Good decision, because the longer you stay, the less likely the first statement above is to remain true. It's a slow rewiring of the rewards and attachment networks in the brain. I wouldn't even factor in cost here. Real friendship and love are a source of...

Est-ce que les snobinards de l'alimentation se sont remis de l'attribution, la semaine dernière, des étoiles du Guide Michelin?

$4,000 is about three weeks of salary (before tax) for the average worker. Is that a better analogy?

Are there going to be some among them who will complain about the high cost of living a few weeks later?

In theory, yes, for a less wealthy client. I checked the overnight rate of my favourite indy on Tryst, and it is $4,000. That's roughly equivalent to two and a half months of rent on a one bedroom apartment in Montreal. I think the numbers speak for themselves.
