I wasn’t going to post about this, since I already think that paying for bottled water and describing it like wine is absolutely bone stupid. but there is one thing that won’t leave me alone about this story.

Happy Birthday To You, Your School Is A Zoo, You Don’t Like Two Classmates, So No Party For You
This is ridiculous. Who would have thought a parliamentary ombudsman would be required to settle something to do with a kid’s birthday party? But after reading this bullshit, the ombudsman should be involved. A kid in Sweden wrote out invitations to invite who he wanted to *his* birthday party. Because he didn’t invite two kids …
That’s So Redacted
It’s pretty frightening that anybody would trust a group like the American Family Association to deliver the daily news to begin with, and it gets even worse when you find out that they’ve gone so nuts as to start changing any and all references to the word gay to homosexual. Yes, that does indeed include …

It’s not even 10 in the morning and I already feel like I can relax and start feeling better about myself. Why? Because I’m notthe 21-year-old dumbass from P.E.I. who fell out of a moving vehicle because it was oh so important that the empty beer bottle made it to the road. RCMP said the …
It’s Good To Be Tough, But Some Sense Would Be Nice
I hate to say this, but it sounds like Eric Morris was doomed to die young. I mean, he did everything anyone asked him to do that was crazy. “Wanna jump off a roof?” “Sure!” “How about surfing on the hood of a car?” “Vroom Vroom let’s go!” “Ok, how about drinking shots upon shots …
