Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
When I first heard that the Ontario song was getting an update, I channeled my inner old person and cringed. What on earth were they going to do to it, and would I hate it for years to come? But I’m pleasantly surprised. I kind of like the feel of the new song. For reference, …

I read this story of a fellow accidentally spraying bear spray down his own pants, and I started wincing. I can only imagine how bad that must have hurt. I say this for two reasons: 1. because duh, it’s friggin bear spray. If just breathing it in would make a bear run away, then imagine …
It has taken me over seven years to do it, but I took another look for that Duffy Moon video I mentioned in this old post, and someone has uploaded it to Youtube! Here it is, all 45 minutes of its…glory? I really didn’t remember much of this video. Somehow, I never noticed how much …
I meant to put this up a long time ago. I saw this on Facebook, and I thought it was very powerful. It’s amazing how quickly Jane Elliott manages to break down the blue-eyed people. This was just a couple of hours of these kids’ lives. Imagine what people must feel like when they deal …

Somebody posted this to, erm, Facebook, and I decided it needed a place up here. This comedian had the brilliant idea of walking up to average joes while they did average things and telling them they’re inspiring, in order to demonstrate why that annoys us so much. It reminds me of this Corner Gas episode, …
I’ll freely admit I’m a chicken. I’ve wanted to post this song on my Facebook, but I’m afraid I’ll single-handedly insult everyone who calls themselves my friend. I shouldn’t be…but I am. So here, let me post this from the safety of the blog, even though probably a bunch of Facebook types read here, so …
This piece about grieving and social media was going around Facebook, so I read it, since I’m still learning a lot of Facebook do’s and don’ts. But what I found here felt like shockingly common sense. All it said was unless you’re the immediate family of a recently-deceased person, don’t post on social media about …
