I need to give a shoutout to the Bootlegger in Kitchener’s Fairview Mall, one of the few stores seemingly in the world that has figured out how to handle its Christmas music. I was in there doing some Christmas shopping this week and I couldn’t help but notice their music mix. I don’t know who …

Yes, I get Hung Up ON Little Things Sometimes. Kiss My Glute Region
I did get a chuckle out of these dunderheads driving their stolen car full of drugs straight into a RIDE program checkpoint, but I’m more hung up on the fact that somebody involved with either the creation of this news brief or the police press release it’s almost certainly sourced from decided to use the …

Today In Just Plead Guilty, Dude
David Antonison was recently found guilty of attempted murder and a few other charges for unloading some bullets from a .44 into the home of neighbours Bruce and Joyce Coghill during a dispute over the location of some dog crap. Why we needed a trial though I’m not really sure, because this, apparently, was the …
The Rent Is Too Damn High
We were definitely not the happiest of campers when our rent went up by over $50 this year (largest increase I’ve ever seen), but apparently we ought to be counting our lucky stars that we have a decent place to live and don’t need to look for a new one. Guelph rental prices keep rising …
If You Live In Kitchener And Cockroaches Seem To Like You, You’re Not Alone And It’s Probably Not Your Fault
I was about ready to flip my lid on Friday when we found out that they were going to be treating our entire apartment building for roaches for the second time this year. When you’ve gone your whole life without ever having to deal with any sort of bug problem, that’s the kind of thing …
Oh The Railroad Yells In the Middle Of The Night
CN promises to stop blaring train horns overnight in Guelph Old story, but posting it because I’m wondering if maybe I can borrow a few of these protesters. They seem to be able to get shit done, and I could use that. My grandparents have a railroad running through the middle of their property. I …

Congratulations I Guess?
200 pens, 489 days: Cambridge man transcribes the entire Bible by hand Not sure if I’m mellowing in my old age or what, but as much as I want to bury this goober deep beneath the earth for wasting so much time on such a pointless thing, I just can’t do it. At the end …
I Am My Choices, But Thankfully Not A Pancake
https://twitter.com/CarlyAlmighty/status/1131517122428002305 This fella here, who apparently nearly had his lunch eaten by an oncoming train about 30 seconds after this video was shot, turns out to be an elementary school principal here in town. That’s comforting. The principal of an elementary school has apologized after a man stood on railway tracks to take cellphone photos …

Waterloo Region Roadside Fresh Food Map
When I was a kid, we generally lived either out in the country or close enough to it that it was a decent bet that we would find somebody selling corn on the cob and all kinds of other fresh fruit and vegetables while we were out driving around. And years later while Carin and …
