We Like: When summer in Vancouver finally starts to feel like summer

This year has been exciting for those who like snow and excessive amounts of rain. For the rest of us who enjoy wearing less than three layers, however, the arrival of seasonally-appropriate temperatures brings joy. In March, you probably moved your summer clothes to the front of the closet in preparation for spring weather. Fast forward three months, and it’s still been as dreary and cold as the depths of winter. Your cute summer crop tops have been gathering dust. Not all hope is lost, though, because the weather is finally becoming acceptable in time for the start of summer and Canada’s 150th birthday. What better outfit to enjoy the free concerts, parades, and other festivities in than a pair of shorts and a T-shirt showing off your patriotism? On Canada Day, pick out the most fabulous red and white outfit and embarrass all your friends with it in this gorgeous weather.

 

We Don’t Like: When extra tall people stand in front of you at a concert

In concerts and other festivities that require people to stand in multiple rows, doesn’t it ruin your entire experience when some six-foot-three (or taller) person stands directly in front of you? Instead of jumping up and down because of the music, you’re doing it every couple minutes to get a glimpse of the artist you paid good money to see. Maybe this person is being a total asshole and knows they can stand a few rows back, but chose not to just to exude superiority. Or perhaps they don’t realize they’re being an asshole and in that case, if you tap them on the shoulder, you can probably switch places. What’s even worse are the guys who let their girlfriends sit on top of their shoulders. Come on, does your girlfriend really need to block the vision of every single person in a vertical line behind her? However, here’s a pro tip: if you really want to see the stage, hold your phone if front of you and watch the entire show through the screen. It’s a good idea to remember this tip if you find one of these unpleasant people at a Canada 150 concert.
