Some People Blow More Than A Hurricane
I’d like to think that everyone reading these words is smart enough not to fall for this crap, but a couple years of answering comments and emails from some of you people and even more years of being alive have taught me that my hopes are way too high, and that some of you need …
With Telus, the Future is Communism.
This kind of shit shouldn’t be happening in Canada. My friend is moving to B.C. and she told me something really disturbing.
