Do We Not Say Flashback Friday Anymore? And Not Quite Early Enough There, Guys
I just watched a story on the news about the Ontario Liberals promising to bring back grade 13 in order to help make up for some of the learning loss caused by the pandemic. Not the worst idea depending on how it’s done, honestly. But I can’t focus on it because of how the anchor …

Yabba Dabba Doom!
When I die, I hope to go peacefully in my sleep. No pain, no fuss. But I’ll be honest, spending my last moments on this planet dressed up as Fred Flintstone and swinging a broom or a spear or whatever at traffic does sound kind of fun, at least up until the part where I …

I Can’t Believe I’m Saying This, But PETA Might Be On To Something
It used to be that we wrote about the silly ass things PETA said with enough regularity that one day we decided it needed its own section. It has one, but nothing has been posted to it in nearly 12 years. Their dumb publicity stunts got old and we just stopped caring. But today it …

I’m Offended
I got insulted by a Canadian dyslexic today. He called me a horse.
I Have A Question
Anyone else think traveler’s diarrhea should be called the globe trots?
This Is So Convenient! Unless You Happen To Be Inconvenient
It’s so fantastically great when all you want to do is some regular people thing like travel or quickly buy something you need and the world tells you to go fuck yourself. The last time I had this experience was back at Christmas with Via Rail and its stupid un-staffed train station here in Kitchener …
