Note: Gwalgen is a big-time lover of of steam and sauna houses.
I kid you not, the following conversation happened in my office today:
Co-worker 1 (From Toronto): "...ya, the only good thing about Vancouver is the Hastings Steam and Sauna."
Gwalgen (From Vancouver): "Oh my god! How do you know about that place? I'm an honorary member. I went there all the time!"
Co-worker 2 (From Thunder Bay): "Really?"
G: "Ya, it's gotten way too expensive though. You should try this really awesome one in the sub-burbs called JJ-spa. It's luxurious and amazing."
CW1: "Ya, but the thing I liked about the Hastings Steam and Sauna was that it was kind of a dive."
CW2: "What do you mean?"
CW1: "Well..."
G: "It kind of has the perfect blend of 'seedy' and 'homey'. It's from1926..."
CW1: "...and nothing's been fixed in it..."
G: "...but it's in a really bad part of town."
CW2: "Wow. Hey, there's this really good one up in Thunder Bay called...
G: "Oh my god! Kangas? It's awesome!"
CW2: "How did you know!?!"
