Some days it really irritates me that guys like this get to drive and I don’t. Really, how much more dangerous could I possibly be? I’d even stick my cane out the window so I could sweep for obstacles if it would make people feel better. Halton police has charged a Waterdown man for playing …

Let Me Warm That UP For You
If nobody has, somebody needs to come up with a microwave for the car. I feel like it would save a lot of people, such as poor Zayveon Johnson here, a whole lot of trouble. It might give us one less gimmick to run the site on, but holy crap I think I’m fine with …
The Tuition At I Did My Own Research University Is Starting To Go UP, Thank God
All of this editorial 1000 times. We’ve said a bunch of this here already, but it still needs repeating. Plus it’s good to see governments coming around to the idea that you can’t always be nice and simply rely on people to do the right thing. Sometimes you really do need to slap some fuckers …

Third Time’s The Harm
I was murdered by yet another COVID shot on Thursday afternoon. After the awful reactions I had to the first two, that’s pretty much what I expected would happen. In fact I expected it so much that I made the decision to wait until after Christmas to get it because there would be no Christmas …

Has The Region Of Waterloo Been Booking And Cancelling Appointments For Anyone Else?
I can’t be 100% certain, but I think there might be a fairly well done phishing scam floating around in the name of the Waterloo Region vaccine effort, either that or someone is doing some testing in the production environment that ought not be done there. While I was away over the holidays (Boxing Day …
But But But My Personal Choice To Get Frostbite!
Watching the news right now and of course they’re talking about our newest COVID lockdown. Among the things they said were going to be closed down for the next few weeks at least are waterparks.

How to Date Someone Who’s Sober Without Making It a Thing Another person’s sobriety isn’t about you, so don’t turn it into a big deal. I’m not sure if I’m weird or if the rest of the world is, but I find it extremely odd that we need articles like this one. I enjoy drinking. …
The Real Murderer Is Right Under Your Nose, Officer
I’m surprised that I’ve only heard about this stunt once. Hopefully it won’t become a thing. Anti-vaxxers took to the streets of Birmingham city centre on Saturday. Some of the demonstrators felt so strongly about the jab, they decided to go the police about it ‘being given to children against their will’. Chief superintendent Steve …

Of Course They’ll Give Me The Money. They Know Me Here
I don’t know much about Fountain Valley, California. I don’t even think I had heard of it until just now. But if there’s one thing I do know about it, that thing is that it is the home of more than one bank. In fact, typing the words “Fountain Valley California bank” into Google like …
