I know it’s dumb people, because if your grand idea is to buy something that’s both unique and popular and then set about draining it of much of what makes it unique and popular, you are a dumb person. Deadspin works precisely because it doesn’t stick to sports. Don’t get me wrong, it can be […]

At Least Whoever Ended UP With That Ball Will Have A Dumb Story To Tell
Poor Anderson Feliz is going to have a hard time living this one down. Woof. The Minors gave us one of the weirdest walk-offs you'll ever see. @swbrailriders' Breyvic Valera hits what appears to be a game-tying double, but Norfolk's right fielder forgets how many outs there are….

A Few Quick Jokes
*My mum said to me, “Take your umbrella, it looks like rain.” I said, “No it doesn’t. It looks like a stick with spokes attached which is covered in fabric.” The woman’s delusional. *I was walking through Glasgow today, when I was stopped by a representative from Aquafresh Toothpaste. She said, “Did you know that […]
Oh Hey Look, An Accident!
I hope this person feels like the absolute geek he is. Shame his name was left out of the news release.

40 Years
Haven’t heard from Gill in a while, but she wrote in yesterday, which happened to be her 40th birthday. Turns out it’s also right around the 40th birthday of a friend of hers, and she wrote this about the very different lives they’ve lived. All of the happy birthdays and well wishes from us here, […]
So That Happened
Well, we had our election. And in spite of what the leaders will tell you, it settled basically nothing and it’s hard to say that anybody truly won. The Liberals won, but still lost. They have a hefty minority, but they came in with a hefty majority and blew it, up to and including getting […]
Robocalls Are Telling People To Vote Tomorrow Rather Than Today. Don’t Do That
Hopefully anyone who needs to see this will see it in time. As I type your polls should still be open no matter where you live, so go vote if you haven’t. Robocalls tell voters to head to the polls a day late Misleading robocalls reported in Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, Elections Canada […]
Before You Blame Technology For The End Of Family Time, Have A Look AT Poleconomy
Did anyone ever play Poleconomy? Was it even half as confusing or unspeakably boring as it looks and sounds? Seriously, even the commercial can’t make it look exciting, and that’s its one job! And I realize that this may not be the exact description that was packaged with the game, but could you make it […]
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 […]
Google Chrome Can Now Try To Describe Images
I don’t use Chrome as my default browser, but from time to time it comes in handy. So when I heard about this, I figured I’d try it out. My first impression is that it’s quite spotty, not always able to give a description when you could use one. When you do get one, it […]
