Memes only matter if they effect revenue. If profit climbed then the stupid stays.

Specifically from Tim Hortons, which despite not having been Canadian in ages still gets treated like a Canadian icon.

But as a result yeah, often referred to that way in common culture.

Generally in lakes it's more people boating who drown. They are far from shore and can get hurt in a capsize easily

As a Canadian it looks like a timbit being used for scale

Those still exist, you are just not invited to them 😛

It's two cartons of eggs, each container is a dozen and a half. Eggs are normally in units of a dozen so keeping that as a consistent unit across multiple brands and styles makes sense. Costco normally indicates how many things are packaged together more than the overall total. It's useful to know the format.

If it was on tray of 36 eggs the would have used 3 dozen and the indicator to keep it consistent with the standard unit of eggs.

They hand waved away the holodeck power thing in Voyager by days something along the lines of it is a different type of power that wasn't worth trying to convert to normal power for some reason. Basically just another Voyager excuse to ignore the premises of the show unless they happen to be bored that day.

I am 39 years old and my egg just cracked. I can't imagine how it must feel being stuck but there is lots of time left for you to get where you are going. Keep going strong, it gets better I swear.

As much as I like making fun of anti-abortion idiots this sign is clearly angled so that from the normal approaches you can only see one side at a time. Let's make fun of them for actually stupid shit they do not force more.

They are rebel military governors of a station that seceded from the earth government. The media in question is a part of a propaganda wing of an anti-democratic authoritarian government they are under blockade and misinformation campaign from.

By no means are they saints nor are they anything but military governors at this point. But in their defense the station was a military installation and they later go on to form a democratic government and cede control of the station back to it. So it's definitely a show that has a stand up to those giving immoral and illegal orders vibe. Not saints, definitely military and wield it heavily sometimes. But overall the message is one of following the democratic process and respecting the freedom of the press.

The rest of the episode is centered around Sheridan allowing the freedom of the press and then getting burned in the end by the propaganda machine twisting everything that is said an seen to their own advantage. But still ends on the note that they were right to open up and right to believe in continuing to be open.

Also a voters pay and retirement benefits are not likely to be impacted by how they vote. Civil service it can make a huge difference in the long run if you retire vs get dismissed.
