Apparently Throwing Money Into Jet Engines Is Kind Of A Thing Now
Somehow, it’s happened again. Another old Chinese lady has thrown things into turmoil by throwing coins into the engines of an airplane she was about to board. And like last time, it appears to have been done for the same reason. Luck. The 66-year-old woman surnamed Wang threw six coins at the engine of a …

Open For Business On Our Dictated Terms
It’s not every day that I can agree with business people on something, but we’re definitely on the same page here. If this shit with the Beer Store or even the terrible treatment of those poor basic income people are representative examples of how the Ford Government feels about signed contracts, why would anyone ever …
Let’s Fine Homeless People For Being Homeless. That’ll Fix Everything
Maybe I’m the idiot here (lord knows it wouldn’t be the first time), but it strikes me that the sort of people who are going to be sleeping on sidewalks aren’t going to be the sort of people who have $100 just kicking around. B.C. city approves bylaw that would fine people for sleeping on …

All That Sleeping Around Was Going To Ketchup With You Eventually
A significant other being unfaithful to me is fortunately one of those areas in which I don’t have a lot of experience, so on one hand, who am I to judge Peter Wagman?

Letting Pharmacists Handle Things A Doctor Isn’t Really Needed For Isn’t A Bad Idea
Ontario government may let pharmacists prescribe treatments for minor issues like sore throats I’m all for this, assuming it’s well thought through and administered, of course. Not for reasons of my own convenience like the government seems to be suggesting here, but because anything that’s going to free up doctors to deal more personally with …
Government Decides To Do A Bunch Of Terrible Things More Slowly So We Won’t Notice Them As Much
In a rare moment of clarity, Doug Ford and whomever pulls the strings that make his arms and lips flap have decided that perhaps being universally hated might not always be so great and have kicked a few particularly stupid cuts down the road. Ontario’s Progressive Conservative government has backed down on retroactive funding cuts …
Aww Nuts. What A Meth. Everything’s Going To Pot. I’m Such An Ass
When you’re a 13 times convicted felon, I don’t think it’s going too far out on that limb over there to say that decision making maybe isn’t one of your better qualities. This certainly seems to be the case with Cameron Jeffrey Wilson, who looks to be well on his way to conviction 14 and …
