Supreme Court and Federal Courts Building

The official name of the court building at Kent and Wellington Streets in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Sometimes it is colloquially and erroneously called "The Supreme Court Building" (even by experienced journalists) because it houses the Supreme Court of Canada. But it is officially called the "Supreme Court and Federal Courts Building" because the Federal Court of Appeal and the Federal Court also both regularly sit in their own courtrooms within the building.

I'm going to the Supreme Court and Federal Courts Building to watch a Federal Court of Appeal hearing.

Chrysler Building

Built in 1930, it stands in New York City as one of the most beautiful skyscrapers. Construction started in 1926 and ended in 1930. When the sunburst at the top was finished, it stood at 932 feet. It claimed the title as the tallest building in the world , but not the tallest thing made by mankind. The architect, William Van Allen secretly built a 114 ft spire inside the building. When the building was done, a crane hoisted the spire through the building in 90 minutes. Once the spire was in place, it stood at an astonishing 1,046 ft. Not only was it the first structure to rise to 1000 ft, but it was also the first building that stood taller than Tour Eiffel (Eiffel Tower).

To this day the Chrysler Building is still one of the attractions in New York City, and is a key building in the Manhattan skyline.

body building forums (MISC)

The only forum in the world full of virgins working out for "aesthics" just to get girls . A lot of racists and insecure people troll the site .

Common threads like :

"i told my gf to go in the room and shut up am i ALPHA misc ?"
"Is it beta to hold open a door for a girl?"

If you notice the join dates on some of the users you'll realize that they have a different mentality from then and now .

"I was beta , now i'm Alfa !"

character building experience

Any personal happening that is so absolutely awful, embarrassing, or painful that, in order to make one feel better about it, its very existence must be given some sort of arbitrary purpose, such as "building character."

My home is at least five miles away and I have no car, no money, and no pants. Now, to get there. This'll be a character building experience.

Building Bridges

Refers to the European version of "Stacking Benjamins" or "C.R.E.A.M". Originates from the bridge on the back of fifty euro banknotes. To build bridges then means to build up wealth.

Invented and popularised by Fiachra Costello.

Person 1: "Wow, you're loaded"
Person 2: "Yeah I be out here building bridges"
