I can think of more than one person in my family who has either definitely or quite probably done either this or something similar, but never somewhere as busy as the QEW. Yeah this really happened I front of me Posted by David Fafinski on Thursday, May 2, 2019 A baffling display of driving was caught […]

News Flash Morons: I’m In Jail
It’s been a while since I’ve seen one of these. And news flash morons: it’s still just as bad an idea as it was the last time I did. Also, the saying long arm of the law exists for a reason. Jessie Dean Kowalchuk has been transported back to Kamloops from Edmonton to face a judge […]
Are You Showering? ‘Cause We Are!
Holiday Inn owner ditching mini shampoos to cut plastic pollution Chain uses an average of 200 million bathroom miniatures every year I’m cool with helping the environment, but this story is failing to answer a very important question. What are we doing about contamination? Switching to bulk-size toiletries only works if it means that multiple […]
A Horrible Choice With A Song To Match
Behold the federal Conservative party’s official campaign song. Awful, isn’t it? And I’m not just saying that because it’s a Conservative song and I’m not a Conservative voter. It really is bad. You hire Jim Vallance, who helped Bryan Adams write some of his most famous and well loved works, and this is what you […]
If AT First You Don’t Succeed, Try Again And Again And Again And Again And Again And Again And Again…
It looks like we’re about to enter official election season in Canada, which raises a very important question. What is John Turmel doing? He’s running, of course. This will be attempt number 99. It, as with most of his campaigns the last few years, will be for a seat in Brantford. If you’d like to […]
You Just Can’t Trust Anybody Nowadays
William Kelley left the keys to his truck on the seat of that very same truck. Naturally, somebody came along and took it. Also naturally, Kelley called the local police to report the theft. But of course, since you’re here, it turns out that Kelley forgot to consider one little thing before he did so. […]
Scary Father And The Disappearing Literature
It’s sad that a lover of one series of fictional storybooks containing all sorts of weird magic would be so hard on another series of fictional storybooks containing all sorts of weird magic, but here we are. A Catholic school in Tennessee has removed the Harry Potter books from its library after the school’s priest […]
I’d Like To Report A Robbery. Someone Has Stolen My Good Sense
I’m trying to figure out exactly what Rachel Thornburg thought was going to happen here. Was the idea that police would give up on chasing her after a certain point, she would abandon the car someplace and then pick it up later once the heat had hopefully died down? I suppose that’s not the stupidest […]
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 […]
Before You Accuse Me, Take A Look At Yourself
To be a leader for all Canadians, the Conservative Party leader should now end his lifelong boycott of Pride events and explain whether he would still deny same-sex couples the right to marry, as he said in Parliament. pic.twitter.com/5WEyja6Ov5 — Ralph Goodale (@RalphGoodale) August 22, 2019 On the face of it, I have no problem […]
