F#ck the Canadians!

I’m very accustomed to seeing crazy homeless people cursing at the world in loud sharp raging outbursts, but today was the first time I had seen a homeless person screaming his venomous rage while riding a bicycle. I was riding my bike home from work today and as I was approaching his cycle, I could ...

"Google Me" 3

Googling someone has become a common act for me over the last year or so. I regularly Google people when I’m curious to find out more about them. Especially at work when we’re dealing with a software vendor and they send in a “specialist” to assist us. I will always Google them to see what ...

Robots from India 3

I just returned from a hockey tournament in Montreal. I’ve been dealing with the Air Canada baggage claim department over the last 4 days because I still haven’t received my suitcase from Thursday’s flight. After endless calls and spending close to 4 hours on the phone and with no suitcase in my hands, I have ...

The face of Jesus 3

I haven’t read much of the bible since my childhood Sunday school days, but I recently came to discover that Jesus’ physical appearance was unknown and the typical Jesus appearance with the long hair and the beard is mainly a European rendition of Jesus. I think the very fact that Jesus’ appearance is unknown is ...

Brotha JC 1

Been busy lately, but I wanted to post this brotha JC pic. I think it’s pretty damn funny.

Do you like black girls? 8

I had quite an unusual experience at of all places, the Dental office. The story starts when I first arrived; I noticed that the two hygienists that were working this evening were both good looking. Then as my hygienist was cleaning my teeth, she was encouraging me to floss more often so that I could ...

Anchorman quotes of the week 7

After 2 months of repeadedly spewing out Anchorman quotes, I’ve finally decide to post them here. Brick is my favourite character in the movie; every time I see him I burst out laughing. Ron Burgundy: I’m gonna punch you in the ovary, that’s what I’m gonna do. A straight shot. Right to the babymaker. Veronica ...

Manpower? 5

Every day on my commute to work (12 minute walk), I walk by a street level office for a company called “Manpower Inc.”. The poster on the window has the corporate Manpower logo and a picture of a woman. Upon looking into the office, I notice that every single person working in this office is ...

The Shmooze dilema: Dignity vs. $2 Martinis 4

In February, I posted an article entitled Club Bouncer Egos. Well the club I was referring to is an after work bar in Toronto called Shmooze. A girl I know through a friend had a bad experience at this same club and shared her experience by writing an article to a Toronto Newspaper (The Metro). ...

I saw you on the TV! 2

The Security guard that works in my building is quite the character. On multiple occasions this man has confronted me in a huff, steam coming out of his ears because he’s mad at something I’ve done. But every single time he does this, about 30 seconds later he’s perfectly fine with what I have done. ...
