Loblaw chief Galen Weston says farmers’ markets... →
Says Mr. Weston “Farmers’ markets are great…one day they’re going to kill some people though.” Yes, Mr. Weston, I’m certain it will be the food from my farmer’s market that will kill me. Not the chemical laden food with which you stock your store. Not the produce covered in lethal pesticides. Oh nooooo. That’s all perfectly safe!
Need he be reminded of the 20...

very, very serious grievances
If I have signed my name in an e-mail and you respond with it spelled totally differently you are the worst. I mean it. I know it’s a somewhat unusual spelling. I know! But that’s only an excuse if I haven’t already signed my name in the e-mail. Seriously.

Not one. And if the only argument you have is that your specific religion disapproves, well, that’s not really an argument at all; at least not in this country.

gag me
I guess I need to set up, like, a wedding website or something? For people? So I can communicate info to them? I tried to set one up at theknot.com, but the whole process was super duper nauseating and I just…couldn’t. I basically just want to throw down the basic details: maps, links to transit info, accommodation suggestions, registry stuff etc. It doesn’t seem like Tumblr...

catbawse replied to your photo: Will my relationship survive the leafs v oilers… Given how this game turned out, catbus predicts ‘no’
Oh man, the real question should be “will my relationship survive ME.” Because I am one sore loser! My guy did his best to keep me happy, but I was not impressed with the Oilers effort last night. It’s all well and good to be really, really excited...

give me something that's funny
I want to laugh. Like, I want to really, really laugh. Now that I’m writing this, I don’t even know if I’ve ever really laughed at a movie before.* But let’s not let that stand in the way. I want to LAUGH. I want to watch something that is impossible not to laugh at. I want something really, truly funny. Not Judd Apatow funny. REAL funny. What should I watch?

as if everything else isn't enough
My hand (the one I broke last November) is ACHING, all of a sudden/out of nowhere. Ha, ha, remember how the doctor told me I should not be working out for three months after the injury and I was like “yeah right doctor I’m not trading a sore hand for an eating disorder we both know I’m going back to yoga tomorrow”?? Now I can have both, sore hand and eating ish! Yay! Yayyayyay! Also, I really...

Last night the Blue Jays held their annual State of the Franchise event for season ticket holders, and I got the opportunity to ask Paul Beeston about something that’s been bothering me for two years: why is there such terrible selection of merchandise for females? Last night was a great example – the Jays shop had a fantastic fifty percent off sale for all the attendees. We jumped at the chance...

I am an Oscars apologist. I dress up every year, I watch as many nominated films as I can, I buy into the dog and pony show. I bite my tongue and breathe deeply when others call them irrelevant, out of touch. I accept the politics as a necessary evil. I let the Gwyneths and the Sandras slide, because I’m willing to suspend disbelief to enjoy the show. This year?
Oh, this...

But of course the SIU cleared police in the killing of Charles McGillivary. Of course they did! Isn’t that the job of the SIU? To clear police of any wrongdoing, ever, no matter the circumstance?
Doesn’t matter that they had the wrong guy - he “roughly fit” the description of the person for whom they were looking. Doesn’t matter that he couldn’t respond...
