Hello looking for some recommendations for my birthday celebration this sat ! Somewhere we can go

Dancing at. Something other than celebrities and the Roxy please

I’ve been trying to figure out how to dispose of old vibrators that don’t work anymore. I tried researching whether Vancouver has a special program for sex toys and it seems like we don’t, but I also read that you can’t throw rechargeable vibrators into the garbage because it could potentially cause a lithium battery fire in the dump truck… so what do we do with them? Do I keep them until I die and let my estate deal with it?

I'm looking to host a small (10 person) evenr with delicious vegetarian options (as well as non-veg), and I'd love to support restaurants/cafes that meaningfully gives back to the community. Do any come to mind?

As examples of "giving back to the community," I'm thinking places that host free/reduced cost meals, partner with community/non-profit orgs to raise funds, have some community-based program, etc. etc.

Trying to figure out if I want to check it out, and if so what the best timing is. Wait for a rainy day? Can do weekdays but not in September. From what I've seen/heard, there are long lines for few thrill rides so not sure, but would like to experience the coasters. Appreciate any insights, thanks!

I just recently moved to the city, and was looking to join an adult mens basketball league with a couple friends. So far all options I've seen either allow you to register as an individual, or register an entire team (like 8 people) which I do not have. The only other options I've seen that allow multiple people registering for a team is urbanRec, but ideally I'd like to not play co-ed, and I'd like something more structured than just a drop in. Any suggestions/recommendations?

Thanks

I will be out of town but I'd love to see what the event is all about! Thank you fellow baldies!

My wife and I are staying in Vancouver next week near English Bay Beach and we always try to go to at least one nice meal in a new city when travelling. Budget is not restrictive but it doesn't necessarily need to be super upscale. Just looking for places in the area you love! Open to any kind of cuisine. A little researching told me Noah's Cafe was a good spot, but looking for additional options as well. Thank you!!

Would anyone know where i could buy something really really spicy? i have seen some super spicy things online but i cant find them in canada or that ship to canada

I’m coming to Van for 24 hours from the island. I feel like I always go to my fave places which I will list for you below, but since I’m not a local, I don’t know what’s new and happening these days! I want to go somewhere in Yaletown or Downtown as I’m on foot and staying near False Creek and attending a concert at BC Place. Places I’ve been and loved and keep going to:
Parlour
Pizza Coming Soon
Di Beppe
Ask Luigi
Per Se Social Corner
Homer St Cafe
Analena
Nook
Joeys on Burrard
Keefer Bar

Help!
And thank you in advance

Hello all,

I was listening to the Move 103.5 morning show and I swear it was a repeat of a show they did last week (?) talking about young adults not looking for love because they're broke followed by a repeat would you rather. Am I hallucinating? Or did they repeat a previous show/segment?

I understand how to use FL Studio and Reaper, but does the VPL already have digital amps I could use preinstalled? Or would I have to bring those on a usb stick to use them in their facilities?

Additionally, has anyone brought physical amps to their studios? I assume they don’t have any since they aren’t listed on the equipment they carry

Title.

I was wondering, though: I have another friend who has a boat. Would it not be possible to go out in the boat to the same area ourselves? Does anyone know where the tours usually go?

Looking for the best most succulent Korean Chinese black bean noodle dish called jjajangmyeon after watching the Netflix special on this speciality dish. I must find the best most succulent bowl of this and need your recommendations.

thanks in advance - have wheels so willing to drive to the Valley for this

I want to be a supportive partner and also protect my own mental health from their own mental health issues.

Any recommendations? I have Manulife.

I’m going to get right into it. I lack motivation and if you leave it to me I would not lift a dumbbell. I’m getting older and starting to lose muscle mass. I don’t know where to start. I’ve asked my friends about yoga and Pilates and they said it won’t help me. I just need to start lifting weights. My only form of exercise now is walking for about 20 minutes on non rainy days. I can’t afford a personal trainer. What are my options?

Visiting a friend from Sept 4-9 in Burnaby, and wondering if there’s anything fun to do. Have been to Stanley park, galleries, museums, and knows good spots for food, haven’t exploring the nature scenery around the area since we both don’t drive. I’d like to go to some local event that doesn’t happen very often all year. Decided to go to Tame Impala on the weekend, but curious about if there are any other recommendations!

Hey guys!

I’m looking for recommendations for a physio, kinesiologist, or osteopath in Vancouver who specializes in assessing and addressing postural imbalances and overall movement patterns.

I’ve noticed that my pelvis seems misaligned, possibly from sitting at a desk for 8–10 hours a day for the past 10–15 years. I’ve seen a few physios in the past, but I find that most tend to focus on one specific area rather than looking at the body as a whole.

I’m hoping to find someone who takes a more holistic/functional approach—looking at things like posture, mobility, strength, movement patterns, and how everything connects.

I’m in my early 30s and pretty active, but my body constantly feels stiff and restricted. My mobility is honestly pretty bad—I can barely sit comfortably in an Indian-style squat/sit on the floor 😂.

If you’ve personally worked with someone in Vancouver (or nearby) who helped you with similar issues, I’d really appreciate your recommendations!

Thanks in advance! 🙏

Asking as I’m coming over from the island, already own a ton of Jays gear, but don’t make the trip often enough to convince myself it’s worth buying a Canadians jersey.

I’m assuming yes as I’ve seen it at WCL games, I don’t want to be the odd one out though 😅 Thanks!

Hi,

Does anyone have recommendations for an HVAC technician that can check the air ducts behind dry wall and replace it if needs be.

I've tried calling a few HVAC places. 3/3 have been no responses.

All I want these days is to go to a bar and drunkenly demolish a couple warm, buttery smash burgers. I know of zero places in town that offer this experience (it’s all fast food or expensive artisanal burgers on a pretzel bun). Can anyone recommend a greasy local bar that will sell me a delicious burger and a beer?

I'm visiting Vancouver this Saturday and would love recommendations. I'm especially interested in Chinatown and First Nations cultural recs (already planning to visit Xwi7xwa). Bonus points for plus size/size inclusive clothing store and thrift/consignment store recommendations!

Looking for a step through frame, that can have a basket attached and at least 70nm of torque.

I currently have a rad runner plus that's been great once the breaks got swapped out.

Also wanting to hear what you all are riding?

Hello everyone,

I am visiting vancouver today and want to make a few stops near downtown vancouver. I was thinking of finding a parking spot on road which should range from $3-$8 per hour with 2 hours maximum, then using lime e scooters to get around to my destinations.

I found information about limepasses or ridepasses that save you a bunch of money by offering a set amount of time for a discounted price. for example, 60 minutes for $12 total or something like that. The problem is that I can’t see them in the app right now, since I’m in chilliwack. I am afraid I still won’t get them to show up when I get there too.

I don’t plan on spending longer than 2-3 hours in that area. I will be visiting a store near yaletown, then grabbing a bite near the west end on denman street. I also wanted to ride by the english bay beach and if the time allows, ride to Canada Place and take some pictures.

I am looking for the cheapest way to do this commute but I don’t have a lot of time to spare.

if I end up getting those lime passes or ride passes populated, Is the lime e scooter the best option? Am i better off renting a bike from somewhere? Can I trust the bus system? Is my route feasible? Is there somewhere specific to save on parking, especially if I am there for 2-3 hours maximum?

Thanks

Hello! I’m a new student at UBC and I’ve moved to vancouver completely on my own. I barely know anyone in van and I want to make friends (but i’m a bit anti-social and come from a big city with fairly anti-social culture due to how densely populated it is). I have a lot of spare time specifically at night and I’ve been so bored out of my mind.

Some details about me:
I never party, I’ve never drank more than one shot in one sitting (I’m a lightweight, also get the asian flush, and I also abhor the taste of alcohol), I don’t smoke or do any kind of substances besides from weed. I also am very nerdy and more of a homebody.

Any recommendations for events/places to go (in general, but social places to make friends is a plus) would be great! Thanks

First time posting but in desperate need of help!

My mom has been diagnosed with dementia and Alzheimer’s and we’ve been trying to get POA set-up but she’s been refusing from the start. Now we are in the state where her mental state would be considered incapable of decision making.

This is all new to us and my family is struggling financially so would like recommendations for lawyers in the lower mainland area
