Gill sent this. I think she answers her own question with her first example. If you want to fight against hate, you have to show in any way you can no matter how big or how small that there is love and good in the world. Be the sort of person that you would want […]

It’s Ok If Not Everything Is About Coronavirus
So here we have a story about some asshat spitting at a Tim Hortons drive through worker. It’s got something to do with a dust up over payment that they make no effort to help me understand. Had it not been for this line, I likely wouldn’t even have bothered mentioning it. Police say during […]
Only Possible Thing That Could Have Happened Happens
I’m not sure how much to read into this, but it has to mean something, right? It certainly makes me think twice about praising Doug Ford’s decision making skills, and if people are somewhat less inclined to take the government’s advice after this it’s not hard to understand why. This is pretty much the last […]
You Get What You Pay For
Not sure what this fella is so bent out of shape about. He paid $150 for a “full contact experience” with a black leopard, and he would be the first one in line to tell you that he got one. The attack happened at a backyard animal sanctuary in Davie, Fla., on Aug. 31, according […]
What Are You?
I wish I’d thought of this. I may have to use it some Halloween. I walked into a coffee shop on Halloween to find the woman behind the counter with a bunch of sponges pinned to her uniform. “I’m assuming this is a costume, but just what are you supposed to be?” I asked. The […]
Happy Birthday To Me, Part Two
Gill recently talked about some of the garbage birthdays she’s had. She’s now sent in a bit about a few of her better ones to balance things out. I’m glad they didn’t all suck. I wrote a few days ago of my worst birthdays, but let’s hop the bus to the positive side of town. […]
I’m Lynn Beyak, And I Approved This Message. Wait, No I Didn’t. My Mistake
God, don’t you just hate it when you accidentally claim to live in a town and country you don’t live in and write down the incorrect occupation on a form and then wind up donating to Donald Trump’s re-election campaign in violation of American campaign finance laws? That’s what happened to Senator Lynn Beyak who, […]
How Is Telemarketing Still A Thing?
When I was young, it made sense. We didn’t have call display. Nobody had call display. Whenever the phone rang, we had to answer it. There was as good a chance that your grandma or your dad’s work would be on the other end as there was that you’d end up talking to some fucking […]
Happy Birthday To Me!
No, not me. My birthday is in December. The birthday in question is Gill’s. It happened over the weekend and she’s got a somewhat interesting take on it. Basically, 2020 is a strange time, but things have been worse. I’ve had about as many birthdays as she has, and I can’t think of one that […]
Camp COVID Is Not A Real Place
I’m certainly not going to sit here and tell you to believe everything the government tells you. That would be silly. Governments lie a lot, and for all kinds of reasons. What I will do, however, is encourage you to use your brains to figure out when it’s ok to take them at their word […]
