OT: What are you Watching/Listening/Drinking?

This is true. Like the others said those are the drinks I typically would have 1 of. Any more is too much. They're fucking delicious though.

Yeah, that’s the problem.

I don’t really care for ciders, sours or coolers, but I love a nice cocktail.

One of my friends had his birthday party at a cocktail bar in the pre-COVID times earlier this year, and the next 24 hours after I woke up the next day were a complete write-off.
 
I'm kinda lucky that I physically cannot drink alcohol with sugary mix. After 2-3 I get this insane gaseous pain starting in my upper stomach that literally cripples me. Like on the ground in pain. So weird. Ulcer maybe? Never bothers me other than when I try to drink a bunch of mixed drinks tho.

So you're too much of a bitch to drink stuff that gays guzzle. Sad.
 
CH, you’re denying me your take on the banks. Down so much, so they’ve had their pounds of flesh extracted already, but do you think they’ve suffered enough and I should still be happy to buy in off the lows, or would you wait for a better opportunity? I got scared off yesterday and am kicking myself for selling. Would you just bite the bullet as a long and just jump back in higher now? I’m so annoyed to not only have missed the lows, but also given back buying in lower than these levels.

Day traders don't make money by predicting. They read and react to what they see on any given day and take calculated risks.

I’m not a beer fancier at all. Do any of you like Flying Monkeys?

I may need a refresher because it's always useful to go back and retaste but imo this is one of those breweries that made IPAs look bad. Funny name, crazy labels, shitloads of hops....but not a very good beer.

If I bought banks now, it would be as part of a regular dollar cost average strategy for my RRSP.

Dip your toe. No need to go "all in" at any moment. If they go up, you should be happy to add a little higher. Same thing if they go lower.

If you're sweating every tick, your position is probably too big. It's important to sleep at night.

Personally, I don't care if I miss the "bottom", but that's just me.

I bought the FIE 3 weeks ago at $ 4.75

Had it for years and dumped at close to $7

Yield as high as it is may not hold but at a 30% discount I will hold it for a while
 
My position was 75% set before yesterday, and I was hovering, waiting to strike to add the final 25%. I don't know why, never happened before, but I panicked yesterday and sold it all, thinking I'm safest that way and I expected it to be dropping so I would just scoop up all 100% lower. It did drop a little bit, but then the Gilead news came out and it shot up afterhours and into today. So it's not fear of too large a position, just fear of buying in at the wrong time and then watching it drop down to the levels I wanted it at. And annoyance that I already had 75% when it was several points lower, and now would be establishing a position at a higher price.

My ideal scenario of course is if there's a big dip and I can buy in for less than what I was in before, but with the banks in particular, since they've been decimated already, I'm not sure if it will drop much again or if it can only go up from here. With the sandstorm of shit and all the uncertainty out there, it seems destined to drop again, but I am going to hate myself if it just keeps steadily rising from here. I've never had such paralysis when debating any previous investment.
 
Wait Zeke. Is Sapporo legal? I much prefer the Sapporo that's brewed in in Japan (Im surprised at how different they are) but the Sapporo here is decent enough too.

So let's hear it zeke. Legal or illegal?
 
I enjoyed all the beers I had in Japan, especially Kirin and Suntori. Boring crispness elevated to the nth degree.

The LCBO Sapporo is brewed locally by Sleemans. I doubt they use the same ingredients.

Makes sense. It's an entirely different beer. But still enjoyable.

And yeah I enjoyed everything I tried in Japan including strong zero which tastes like one of them gay drinks at 9% abv. Impressive shit, japan. Impressive.
 
Beau's update: after a week of beaus I'm going to have a Stella. Will it taste like piss? Stay tuned for my review.

Edit: unlike zeke I am not sure what piss tastes like so I can't comment on that. But it's still a decent beverage. Just a crisp step down is all.
