    QFT. The Trans-Canada Highway isn't even grade-separated like our interstates are.

        They imported someone with American credentials and experience but then complain when he actually tries to implement responsible policy. They've got the same narrow thinking you keep demonstrating.

These sorts of conversations are important; we need a serious discussion of the issues of urban development Calgary faces, even if it involves admitting some tough truths. I'm glad you're contributing your local knowledge to this conversation, and Kuci is contributing his depth of experience. You both have valuable perspectives. Just try not to get so emotional about it.
          I do admire your fierce loyalty to your "roommate". He's lucky he has you to defend him on this site.

            You can claim that all you want, but you've been utterly crushed in this thread because you just don't know what you're talking about.

              Some solid thinking there, Kuci.

              You are correct in your assumption that our mayor was elected with 100% of the vote and then they started complaining when he did what everyone voted for.

              You're right, we are stupid!

                We're getting eerily close to coining the term Kuciverse...

                    this sort of mundane troll
                    is the best kind
                    Sent at 5:24 PM on Friday
                    snoopy369: hmm
                    Asher is too smart, though


                    snoopy was wrong, apparently. Ben Kenobi also sent me a PM congratulating us on our blatant but effective trolling.

                      I'm not SB. Tattoos are a turn-off.

                      You've been destroyed in this thread because you haven't yet realized that Kuci is channeling you and your tendency to believe that your fairly typical life experience demonstrates your qualification as an expert.

                      • My favorite piece of Kuci's trolling was the smug parenthetical "(as I predicted!)". Not only does he have a completely fake economic theory with no substance whatsoever, but it apparently it predicts things too!

                        • Is the joke on me that you two are so devoid of personality and so arrogant people can't tell the difference when you're being douchebags intentionally or not?

                          I think it speaks more for you two. I honestly don't even know if I believe it was a troll. It's exactly the kind of stupid **** you guys always do when you (supposedly) are not trolling.

                            Why would I realize something not true?

                            Kuci was always the one to bring that up, what with his 18 bathrooms...

                              My favorite bit is his alleged troll is indecipherable from his serious posts.

                                I don't know if this is effort justification or just plain denial.
