One thing I’ve never been able to get my head around is why on earth anyone would donate to a charity in someone elses’ name as a Christmas present. It’s a terrible gift. Not because you don’t wind up getting any stuff, although I will admit to having that thought as a child. the problem …

This Is Definitely The Eighth Day. Maybe
This is 100% me right now. The only difference is that I haven’t known what day it is since December 20th when my birthday ended. It was easier to sort it out then than it’s been since we left for family Christmas on the 24th, though. Jesus. Every day away felt like it should be …
I Have To Take Bell’s Side On Something And I Hate It
A Netflix deal for Warner means curtains for Crave unless Canadian regulators step in For the good of the industry there’s no way that mergers like these should almost ever be approved, but let’s not waste one single second pretending that it wouldn’t be just a little bit fucking hilarious if Bell was undone by …

Oh, So You Like Soccer, Do You? Well Then How’s About You Show Me Your Balls!
I’m sure the Elon Musk factor explains a lot of this (his AI does think it’s Hitler and that that’s a positive, after all), but it’s hard to imagine how we got from where we started to where we finished here. A Toronto mom says things took an unpredictable turn when her 12-year-old son asked …

You Ruined Everything! BOOOOOOOOO!
I enjoyed this. Enjoyed it a lot more than I enjoyed how the damn World Series turned out, that’s for sure. Thanks a lot, Freeman. Such a clown. We never thought we'd cheer for @FreddieFreeman5 either, but here we are. He's grown on us. Kind of like @VancityReynolds' sweater. 😉 Help Ryan Help @SickKidsNews. Donate …
What’s He Doing Here? Am I Hallucinating?
AI of dead Arizona road rage victim addresses killer in court Listen. If this is truly something that this guy would have wanted and it helped his family deal with their loss, more power to them. But I’m telling you right now. If I die and any of you does this to me, I’m visiting …

I’m In Fear For His Wife’s Safety, Too
Woman Accidentally Goes to Wrong House, Resident Shoots at Her 17 Times — and Then Explains Why: Police Stories like these make me happy to be a Canadian. Not because I don’t think something like it could happen here, but because the chances of it are a lot slimmer seeing as we have a few …
But Is His Woodworking?
The Score did a fun (depending on your perspective at least) little roundup of some of the stranger injuries in sports. I wasn’t sure whether or not I was going to post it, but then this happened. Bryce Mitchell (2018) Don’t stick a power drill in your pocket: That’s the lesson UFC fighter Mitchell learned …
I Need A Drink. If Only I Knew What I Wanted. Perhaps A Cup Of Tea
Sometimes things are funny because they’re true, like this video here. Whenever I flip by a new country station or don’t have control of the radio, all I ever seem to hear is what sounds like the same two or three dudes singing the same song about beer, jeans, trucks and gravel roads. And the …

the Following Goofy Sponsorships Are Brought To You By…
Every bit of a sports broadcast is sponsored. Penalty kills, powerplays, calls to the bullpen, the broadcast booth…I’m used to that. But hearing on a Bluebombers game the other day that “Doug Brown’s colour commentary is brought to you buy…,” that was a new one. Caught me off guard so much that I immediately forgot …
