Liberal candidate Jamie Hall was on CBC radio this morning complaining that if he gets censored then why aren't moves or newspapers having it done. That him calling his girlfriend a skank really just means jerk in their circle. And she was there too saying its ok. He won't scrub his tweets though and mentions it's just microbytes. That we won't have anymore politicians if we keep doing this.

To this I say "gently caress OFF" - this rhetoric of "I SAY IT HOW IT IS" is starting to really aggravate me. We're totally regressing as a society if this is how it's supposed to be.

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/jamie-hall-interview-liberals-tweets-1.3475354

The fact that reactionary bullshit is getting louder actually means we're progressing as a society. Of course, eventually regressive views have to go away for progress to occur so the volume of their bullshit isn't a useful measure of actual progress aside from telling you that society is moving past them.

I had to tell a Canada Post driver to gently caress off and blow me today. Apparently in the tiny minds of government workers, loading zones are for their use exclusively, and can be parked in backward if desired.

gently caress it, privatize everything.

This was the vision behind the 'Don Mills' community in Toronto. Practically speaking though it's not really feasible for a lot of white collar jobs (or poo poo like construction, or any activity not suitable for residential neighborhoods like power plants or factories), so I think we just need public transit options that mean commuting is relatively painless.

It's interesting how much our economy and priorities have shifted since a place like Don Mills was built. I have to say the green space and paths that are linked from everyone's backyard to the local school is a pretty good idea. Maybe less so during the winter, I'm not sure, but during the Spring it was nice.

Whatever the Don Mills plaza/mall has become is pretty crappy though.

I am a white male in Calgary, ergo I can point out how lovely we are without fear of criticism.

Or did my use of the oval office word offend your sensibilities? I enjoy using "oval office" because, unlike "gently caress," it still produces a reaction every time. And isn't that the point of cursing?

My favourite people are the ones who walk along single track mountain bike trails and are super douchey when you ask them to move over so you can bike past.

Like, 95% of people are like "oh sure sorry!" and I don't mind them being on the mountain bike trails because who cares really but why be super dochey about it when you're not even supposed to really be there?



Mountain bike riders tend to be the nicest though, when we take Terra on the multi-use trails and let her off leash as soon as we see a bike I always grab her collar and hold her off to the side to let them pass and get a really big thank you almost 100% of the time, when dogs are totally not supposed to be off leash in that park and I'd be like "yeah that's fair" if they yelled at me for doing it.

How hosed-up do you have to be to think that "gently caress" doesn't produce a loving reaction when people read/see it, like, come on. We all know it's because you're a loving pathetic Anglophile fuckface.

Depends on context. In a business context, "gently caress" would be offensive and over the top. In everyday speech with my friends and family, "gently caress" wouldn't raise a single eyebrow so I need to say "oval office" if I want to be properly offensive and make a point. Maybe my family and social circle is abnormal, but who really gives a gently caress?

If you think that, along the way, you're not going to fail... you're blind.

There's no one I've ever met, no matter how successful they are, who hasn't said they had their failures along the way.

I need to use an incredibly derogatory slur against women, guys, don't you see? Nobody notices when I say gently caress, because I say it so much!

It's the same reason I call people niggers and kikes. Because nobody notices when I call them assholes anymore.

Everything south west of Winnipeg is boring as poo poo but there's actually quite a bit to see and do in the rest of the province.

Also yes, Winnipeg does have a decent theater scene and Winnipeg Fringe is amazing.
