Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
Doug Ford may be an incompetent premier, but he’s not illegitimate Martin Regg Cohn is making a few different points in this column, but I want to focus on one in particular. It actually has little to do with anything that Doug Ford may have done right or wrong. It’s more about what the federal …

I haven’t been as on top of the Doug Ford stuff lately as I usually am (no reason, really), but this seems like a good time to make a comeback. Can we all agree that this criticism of yesterday’s Liberal budget is pretty fucking rich coming from these clowns, who have done everything in their …

This sounds pretty fun, and I’ll bet it’s surprisingly difficult. Everybody House Games has come up with an idea they’re calling Hey Robot. It’s a game where you’re given a word, and then you have to try to get your digital assistant (Google, Alexa, etc) to say it in a set number of turns. There’s …

Maybe Microsoft has good intentions with this. It’s possible. But if they do, I’m struggling to figure out what those could be. It seems to me like making chatbots that try to impersonate your dead friends and family based on everything they’ve ever communicated electronically could only make things worse. How are we ever supposed …

Please, everyone. Do me a small favour. The next time you find yourself needing to describe a fight in which you were involved, ask yourself a few questions before you get going. Am I playground equipment? Am I gym equipment (ropes, rings, etc)? Am I a tree? If your answers to the above are no, …
Never lie to your doctor. If you’ve somehow managed to lose a phone cable up your dong, just say so. Any embarrassment you may suffer will almost certainly pale in comparison to the week of unnecessary pain you’ll go through while they try to figure out why they can’t find the headphones you said you …
I like Cash Cab as much as anyone. It’s fun to play along with. But why in the name of god are they showing it on the Sci-Fi channel? Yes, they ask some science questions, but it’s still almost as ridiculous a stretch as CSI and Big Bang Theory being on Discovery because they’re shows …

I don’t understand why anyone would need this Tuned app that Facebook made for couples, and I’m pretty sure it’s not just because I’m a crusty old arsehole this time. I, a normal person, just can’t grasp much of the appeal. A space for your love story A private space where you and your significant …
If you’ve registered to be notified by text message when there are COVID vaccine appointments available and have heard nothing but a combination of silence and chatter from your friends about how quickly they were able to book their own times, this may be why. The region is asking Telus customers who preregistered for a …
Here’s a minute and change worth of a cappella renditions of iPhone sound effects because hey, why not? The group is called Maytree, they’re from South Korea, and their versions are hilariously accurate. They even made me jump and cringe when the damn alarm went off even though it’s the middle of the afternoon and …
