Thanks to the bitch in the pink coat who decided not to lend a helping hand to me when entangled on a fence on Cunard on Saturday. After walking from the market through icy cold weather I became so tired that a sudden wind managed to push me sideways. I got my scarf all tangled in a wire fence. What did the lady passing by do? Ignore me like I wasn’t even there. Cheers

Jesus Christ OP, are passers by obligated to tie your shoes when they come undone too?
Did you even ask for help, or just assume someone would rush to your aid? I have a feeling “entangled” would more aptly be called “snagged” and would be a problem most people could solve on their own. Most people who aren’t so frail they get blown over by the wind anyway.
She might not have noticed your predicament.
hmmmm, have you been to the ER for a Tamiflu reaction lately? I am starting to notice a trend on here.
Since when is a tangled scarf a two person job? What a helpless asshole!
I’m trying to figure out if the OP is kay or Bon. Sounds like a mixture of both.
So would that be a Bonkay or a Kaybon?
Maybe this post is from KAY and the bitch noticed and actually didn’t give a fuck > Just wondering !
If it was kay, she probably would have blamed it on “typical Nova Scotians.” Ohh no, now I’m falling into the kay trap too!
OP, if you were a female hottie, I would’ve helped you for sure. Otherwise, being the shallow asshole I am… sorry. I don’t expect anyone to help me with anything and I’m fine with that. I can take care of myself. HUUWWAHHH!
maybe she thought you were getting all kinky with the fence,and decided to race home,and give her man at hit of cialis?
I have nothing to do with this bitch save for the bitch’s wild imaginations spread all over the comments. Kindly, go fuck yourselves. I come from a land where people care about each other and will stop to help if not just to bid their neighbour good day. This is exactly why I bitch about NS! Bullies, victims and the forgotten. Is there any other kind of Scotian?
Lol kay comes from a magical land where people poop daisies and rainbows!
not daisies and not rainbows but we were also taught to respect our elders. Do you think that “magical” land (full of civil people) is really so far away?
GLad you asked! Not at all! We’re in such a land darlin’, you’re just too cynical and unhappy to see that.
apparently so is the OP
And we’ve come full circle! That’s why everyone thinks you are the OP, kay. I love it when you back yourself into your own miserable little corners.
oh no… you’re going on like I would have an expectation of kindness from NS. I learned that lesson a while ago and that old expectation has been replaced with one that can’t as easily be disappointed. Doesn’t mean I’m happy about it but isn’t it obvious I’d never post a bitch like this?
For the record and once more for you… I had nothing to do with this bitch.
If you really can’t be further disappointed with how horrible we barbaric Nova Scotians are, then you wouldn’t you tire of pointing it out every thread?
No, because you can’t stew in your own defeated misery you have to spread like an infection. I think the kay-infection needs a name…
yeah, it’s called LTWWB and it’s contagious
Kaytinitis?
Kay, I loved some of your comments on other posts this morning, but you cracked me up when you spoke about Alberta as a magical land of helping others and respecting elders.
I lived half my life in Alberta (20 years), and met exactly the same mix of good and bad, smart and dumb, kind and unkind, caring and uncaring. It’s certainly not “Mr. Roger’s Neighborhood.” In most ways, it’s pretty much like any other part of Canada. Obviously there is a lot more wealth sloshing around out there, but you know as well as I do that that brings its own new set of issues.
During my time there, I met many people there who were awful, and also many others who have remained my best friends for decades.
The posters on LTWWB have asked you before, in all sincerity, about the source of your anger and hostility. It is so mystifying because your typical day in Nova Scotia just seems so different than mine, and I suspect many others. (And I will remind you once again that my job exposes me to many, many evil situations, just so you don’t think I am a naive sunshiny pollyanna type.)
For some reason, you seem to experience rudeness, incompetence and ignorance with alarming frequency, while I (and others who drop in here) don’t seem to have this level of crap happening around them all the time.
Kay, I know Nova Scotia is not perfect. No one ever claimed it was. But NO PLACE is free from assholes and losers. You may LIKE Calgary better than Halifax—that is surely your right. But don’t try to pretend that it has no social problems or that all the people there are all sweet and perfect angels.
And remember, before the oil discoveries of the 1940s, Alberta was not the shiny exciting place it is today. It was a very, very difficult place to eke out a living. And if that oil ever runs out, the future of that province will look very much like it’s not-so-distant past.

PS: Kay, In a typical day (like today) my work and family life bring me into contact with a fabulous circle of friends, colleagues, neighbors and acquaintances. I can have a great afternoon just walking down the street and running into people I know. But I just can’t figure out why your day-to-day experiences are so much different than mine. Please tell me: exactly what kind of work/play do you do that you have to spend so much of your time dealing with so many terrible people?
I really don’t understand how there are so many people in this world that can’t do a fucking thing for themselves. Every other bitch on here is blaming someone else for something that could have been avoided if people did things for themselves and took repsonsiblity for their OWN lives.
I’m just picturing someone who got stuck in a fence and doesn’t even think to maybe, I dunno, take the fucking scarf off, but instead is trying to run away from the fence, causing them to choke and gasp for air. Lawl.
Ruby, are you from NS? If you are your experience and mine are going to be two different things. When I first arrived here I thought the lady was being pessimistic when she said, “it’ll take about two years to fit in as NS’s are fairly close knit but you’ll be so fed up by their bullshit that you’ll leave by then thinking we’re a bunch of asses. And we are!” We laughed as if she was making light or being sarcastic. If I had imagined sooner that God’s honest truth flowed from that woman’s lips I could have adjusted my my expectations much much sooner. Better late than never.
And I guess by “land” I mean “time”… modern times and trends that abhor uncivilized behavior like following through when you say you’re going to do something, not lying just because you can (I HATE liars), responding to suggestions of improvement with malice, violence or plain defensiveness, criminalizing those in need who have guts enough to ask for help, etc. Come to NS and point out an obvious problem (and solution) like bullying or racism and the first thing NS’s want to do is punch you out! I feel I’ve fallen backward in time when then strongest and the biggest dictated to the small and to the weak while the rest just bickered at each other over how that girl wears her dress. I don’t like it. For a world of people who claim to all value the same things (shelter, safety, food, family, etc) one would think we’d move forward as a whole. We don’t because of backward thinking. Shitty. I expected so much more from Canada as a whole.
In answer to your question, Kay, I am not from Nova Scotia. I had never once set foot in this province until I was 23.
Kay, I agree with you that petty, small-minded idiots are awful—everywhere—but these examples you describe seem very strange to me, in the sense that you think all the bad things you see here represent some kind of “norm” for Nova Scotia.
In all the time I have lived here (18 years) I have NOT ONCE been in a situation where something escalated to the point where one person was going to punch someone else out. Yes, of course I KNOW these things (and worse) happen—all the time, everywhere—but not in my regular life and if they ever did it would NOT be every single day.
I DID, however, run into a few of those situations in Alberta—but I was much younger then and moved in different circles. But it would be wrong to believe that those incidents of stupidity (and racism and bullying, and backward thinking) were in any way representative of Albertans as a whole. That is not true of Alberta, and it is not true of Nova Scotia.
In many ways, the worst of what you are seeing here is stuff that I can personally attest DOES go in in Alberta (a LOT), but is often masked by the temporary wealth and easy employment situation. I worked with a number of social service clients who, because of their nice clothes, big cars, and new houses, outwardly appeared to have all the right things going on, but underneath they were monsters.
The social problems have nowhere to hide here, partly because of the economy, and partly because of the size of the place. And all the “niceness” and “caring” will not fix those problems overnight—and I know some people who work 24 hours a day trying to do just that.
We can’t invite all the panhandlers to live in our homes here in NS, just like you can’t invite the ones from Jasper Avenue into your house in AB, even when it’s -40 below. You know the problems are more complex, and the solutions will need to be too.
Personally, I have found that the whole human race can disappoint you if you let it. Canada, Alberta and Nova Scotia don’t meet our expectations, and then neither does the US, and Britain and Europe fail miserably at things too . . . and then there’s Asia, Africa, the Middle East . . . the whole world is just one big seething pot of misery if you look at it that way. Always has been.
But you have to be careful not to allow yourself to fall into that trap. You can let it destroy you, or you can do your best to contribute to making something better, in spite of the idiots—who will ALWAYS try to thwart ANYTHING new. It’s really the only choice we have, no matter where we live.
RubyJane, I think I am in love with you… 🙂
wait…. Ruby, are you trying to convince her? as eloquent as you can be, that is likely a very large waste of time and typing…. she was told from the get-go all negative things about us and now that’s all she can see. first impressions do matter and she looks beyond the good to see the digusting, vile hatred everywhere and in everyone.
Did I ever tell you the story of my very first night out in NS? Ended up in a bar where I got to see a bouncer go postal on a drunk guy. It’s not that this doesn’t happen in AB, ON, BC or everywhere else in this country… it’s the number of times I see stories just like this in the daily news. I’ve said it before and bitches balk but the story is true. BIG CITY news gets reported from small town NS all the time. From buddy gettin’ stabbed for sitting in his car to kidnapping or highway shootouts. THIS is not the NS the world thinks it is and I’m beginning to understand why.
Ruby, $10 and a bag of chips says you had family here that all ready “fit in” before you arrived.
haha Kay your the only tragic happennings at a frequent rate person i know thats not from here . YOU my friend are an albertian shitbag . But there more good here then bad – the typical NS attitude is this and you walk into every time . WE DON”T LIKE PEOPLE COMING HERE AND BITCHING ABOUT US . So i suggest this – I invite you back to alberta edmonton or calgary pick one – and deal with getting robbed and shot by asian gangs and or indian gangs – 300 cracklheads per meter per block – the shit goes on here is nothing like back home – but unlike you – I learned to adjust to whats around me and accept thats just the way it is . I can’t change nothing here – and i don[t bitch about the TYPICAL COCKSUCKER atiitude around here – i just take it as it comes – SO go look for the good Theres lots your not tragic – your a fuckin better then anyone canadas equivilent of texas attitude ” better then the rest “. So put up with people maybe telling you to fuck off or listen to people bitch about telling bums to get a job – because thats our way – atleast unlike alberta we don’t shot innocent people in the face – blow up bums and set them on fire – or while dining a resturant – take a few bullets downtown weekly . Go back home – if a scotian can take this shit here – an albertian can take our mild shit . Be lucky your not home in the violent – crackridden ghetto dodging bullets – jesus man – thanks your self for leaving . No shut up about scotians before they send you home . Fuck i can’t wait to come back to hali and have to deal with all the horrible things and shitty attitudes oh wait – i’m a typical scotians forget it I fit in with my people – oh wait i also fit in with yours . Grow up loser
Oh yea about the amount of times you seen bouncers tossing people – for every one you see in NS I see about 10 more in calgary – oh wait – they just use toilet lids and smash in heads and have gun fights – doesn’t happen as often in other cities as hali ? Fuck you happens 10X as many as compared to hali . Stop hanging out at the palace last call trying to get drunk young guys to fuck your sorry ass – funny i go to plenty bars and i never seen it once – just you eh > HORRIBLE haha
“Did I ever tell you the story of my very first night out in NS?”
Did we ever tell you that none of us give a flying fuck? If not; nobody gives a flying fuck. Go tell Desi or your ugly son about it.
Kay, I moved here for school—and only because a prof at my community college in Alberta told me about a very specific academic program that was only offered here.
Halifax was a completely new place for me. I actually picked it for precisely that reason, because all my friends from Edmonton were heading out to Vancouver. (I can be contrary that way!)
So, I shared apartments and houses with other girls, met some of their friends, met my own friends through school and later work and social activities.
I can’t go in to too much detail on here at the risk of giving too much away . . .
. . . but today my circle of friends (and now family) includes my husband’s extended, deep rooted Nova Scotia family, a lot of academics and people in my industry (many of them very, very smart and all very entertaining), a number of (fabulous) Americans, some friends who make a living in the arts, the sciences or engineering, some cool neighbors who amaze me with their literary talents, and lately my students—who keep me young and (somewhat) up-to-date with their energy and enthusiasm.
So, yes, I am now very “at home” here and could not duplicate this particular experience in any other place, even though there are many places in the world that offer rich and interesting experiences.
It didn’t happen overnight, it took a few years to feel less like a visiting student and more like I lived here.
So, I am still holding out hope for you—that you will start to meet some good, kind, fun, respectable folks who will counterbalance your unfortunate experiences thus far.
Now, about that 10 bucks and bag of chips . . .
: )
She won’t pay up haha shes a broke ass albertian kicked out by her own people and made to live with us horrible people that usually mind our business and have friends and stuff . But if you want you 10 buck I suggest you look deep down in the sewer – nope farther – nope farther-yep right at the bottom – there she is !!! Asshole ripping scotians – come back to alberta with your own so they can show you how to act properly – i get nothing but good people around here – calgarians in particular – that love us scotians and don’t rip us but become our friends . Shes a waste – to bad – shes making albertians look bad – because shes even worst then the worst around here – which is the assumption they kicked her ass out .
Hey kay, didn’t I already show you in a post a few months ago, with a link to StatCan, that showed that Halifax is NOT the violent crime capital of Canada? Both Edmonton and Calgary have higher rates of violence and overall crime than Halifax, and Alberta is also a more violent, crime-riddled place than Nova Scotia statistically speaking.
Edmonton especially has a bad reputation for random violent crime. It was, in fact, the murder capital of Canada only a few years ago.
As difficult as ‘theweedhog’ may be to understand sometimes, what he says is true! Alberta is a far more violent and unfriendly place than Nova Scotia.
Anyway kay, I can be your Nova Scotian friend. I can be anyone’s friend (oh yeah, despite being born and raised here in Nova Scotia with family here, I don’t always feel I like I have many friends or fit in either (I post here more often than not, afterall). I guess there’s weirdos like me everywhere though!). So you wanna go out for coffee at Timmy’s some time? It’s on me.
I want to be your fwend…
Well maybe the three of us can go out for some coffees and Tim Bits then! Which Timmies? I’ll leave it up to kay. Then we can go clubbing afterwards at the Dome.
Secretly I think Kay came from Edmonton – was scared of her cities gangs and random violence – an ran to Nova scotia – where she did know the crime rates are lower. Secretly – like all “typical Albertians ” she loves us but pretends not to because like all” typical albertians” – shes a violent prone moron , thats why she sees all the negative ( not much around here – but some all the same )/ It’s ok we don’t Typical idiot albertians – because the good albertians toss people like her ou the province and us scotians have to put up with her . Thats ok KAY – you’ll be ok – short comings. and idiocy included
I have always lived in NS, but that doesn’t mean i’ve naturally always fit in. I moved to EP when I was very young, but since I wasn’t part of one of the local families, it meant I was never going to be really from EP. To me a lot of the people in EP had terrible attitudes and were backwards in thinking. But I certainly made some friends with people more like me. Then I was lucky enough that in high school EP is combined with Preston, Lawrencetown and Cole Harbour at CHDHS. This was essentially like moving away for me because I was exposed to new people with new ideas and attitudes. Of course people who grew up on Cole Harbour had similar experiences as me, and same with everyone else. So I left high school with a nice mixture of friends from each community, as well as people I disliked from each.
I think Kay you just haven’t found your NS kindred spirits yet. You just need to branch out of your current circle and find some people you relate to.
And the problem with news coverage is that they always show far more of the entertaining violent stories than of everyday occurances. I remember the news spending a good 5 mins covering the Teddy bear picnic at the mall one year, certainly doesn’t indicate that NSians are more into Teddy bears than anywhere else, just made me think that we don’t have much going on that’s news worthy, which is generally a good thing.
hog, I’m not your friend. Make no mistake. And who said I’m an Albertan? Question what you think you know, hog. You make assumptions and talk from the side of your head every damN day… like the assumption I go out to get fucked. Grow up already! Stick to what you know… like how to spell or the difference between “then” and “than”. Sure. That should keep you busy for YEARS.
PAS, I’m nearly positive if I had gone to school here or was still in need of a secondary education I’d likely find “kindred spirits” but since I get to deal with the adults of NS I’m SOL… so far.
And really… what should a person make of a town when the news reports a guy stabbed because he was sitting in his car in a parking lot. That’s all! Just sitting there minding his own business. Some Nova Scotian tough guy decided he didn’t like the way the guy looked so fucking stabbed him… tried to take his LIFE!!! For what?!?! What kind of sense of entitlement does one need to possess to police the way a person sits in their car? Imagine if that guy had, say, stepped out of his car and let’s imagine he was actually wearing a skirt? Would that give the NS’n reason to think twice before condemning a man to death? Not likely. The readers of THIS particular magazine would go ape shit! So HOW is one supposed to fit in and why would one WANT to fit in when sitting in your car (or being a man wearing a skirt or drinking too much and getting carried away with the band, which is the problem that bouncer so graciously solved with his fists) is enough to have a target for death painted on you? And that’s just one run-of-the-mill story (or three, if you’re paying attention.) The very FIRST news story I read in NS was about them fishing a dead gay guy’s body out of the park. And do you know what happens when I pipe up to say this shit is wrong and could be corrected by…? I’m invited to leave and to fuck off if I don’t like things this way. Nice. Real nice. Yeah, like I would WANT to know and fit in with the people who run the show here. They’re bullies. I’m so NOT interested in knowing any of them or discovering where or how they learned to be barbaric assholes.
fizz, are you the kind of friend who says yes when they mean no?
Just a few headlines from this morning’s Edmonton Journal:
• “‘Killer cold’ stalks homeless on city’s frozen streets”
Paramedics, pet owners, teachers all have chilling horror stories
• “Drunk jumps train, nearly freezes to death, charged with trespassing”
Canadian Pacific Railway police have laid a trespassing charge after a man hitched a ride on a slow-moving train on the weekend and nearly froze to deathh.
• “Toxicology test hopes to reveal cause of death”
RCMP will have to wait for toxicology test results to determine how a 25-year-old man died in a Calling Lake residence on the weekend.
• “Charities desperate for donations”
With only a handful of days left in 2009, Edmonton charities are hundreds of thousands of dollars and thousands of kilograms of food away from reaching their holiday campaign goals this year.
followed by
• “Albertans buying big this Christmas season”
Albertans are feeling a little more generous about their gift lists this Christmas, much more than anywhere else in the country.
[looks like their buying for themselves but not those in need]
• “Victim spoke out against gang life”
A man stabbed to death Monday in a Chinatown rooming house was a former Redd Alert gang member who had taken steps to educate youth on the ills of the lifestyle.
• “Activists to pursue lawsuit over elephant’s living conditions”
Animal activists say they will take legal action against the City of Edmonton because zoo officials have failed to address their concerns about the health and well-being of Lucy the elephant.
• “Our cops crack fewer cases”
Edmonton not getting bang for its buck that other cities are: StatsCan
Death, murder, racial division, child neglect, alcohol abuse, animal cruelty, bureaucratic incompetence, and lack of generosity? Oh, how awful those Edmontonians must be to allow these terrible things to happen in their city!
Maybe if someone just explained to them that they should be more informed, caring, polite, self-reliant and forward-thinking, then all these problems could be magically wished away forever.
Oh, and this just in:
• “Woman charged with attempted murder after Monday’s stabbings”
A 25-year-old woman has been charged with attempted murder after a fight Monday put two other women in hospital with serious stab wounds.
Two had to be hospitalized. One remains in critical condition and the other in serious but stable condition.
etc., etc.
Oh, and this:
• “Detectives seek Edmonton, Calgary robbery suspect”
Robbery detectives are seeking a suspect in connection with a recent Edmonton robbery, who may also be responsible for several robberies in Calgary.
Gosh, it never ends!
Maybe you should take a night class Kay, that could be your way of getting out of your current circle and finding some people you like.
Kay asked: “And who said I’m an Albertan? Question what you think you know, hog.”
A quick search in the archives reveals this direct quote from Kay, dated August 30, 2009:
“Calgary is my home town and since I’ve come East I’ve had people tell me how old the infrastructure is and that’s WHY the layout is simply BAD considering the horse and buggy got parked a while ago . . .”
And at another time you mentioned living in Ontario.
So, my guess is: born in Ontario, moved to Alberta, like a lot of other people.
Lol, don’t worry about it kay, it’s not you I want to be friends with.
And stop bitching people out for things you’re guilty of yourself. Who said you’re Albertan? Who said I’m fourteen, kay? You assumed I was fourteen years old to discredit my driving comments… Do you know what the word “hypocrite” means?
LOL silly me, of course you don’t.
Shut up, Ruby. Newbe-bitches like theweedhog doesn’t need encouragement from the likes of you. Oh and thanks for the play-by-play of BIG CITY news from BIG CITY newspapers. BIG surprise there.
fizz… your age discredits only your experience and your experience driving is ziltch. Admit it.
Hey folks, still want to do coffee and donuts at Timmy’s? Anyone? I’m sure we can all work this out and be friends with eachother over a face to face to face to face discussion at Canada’s most popular franchise.
kay, whether they’re new or not has no bearing on the argument. You’re not king shit of turd island.
Anyone who calls Kay out on her bullshit deserves encouragement. Well said, Ruby.
qpmzwonxeibcruv, half the people on this board bitch out timmies swill every chance they get…. the majority of the rest don’t drink coffee.
If you’re looking for a get together, you’d better find a more suited place….
like a gun range.
I think we could settle a few things there.
No? ok, how about paintball so as to reduce the likeliness of fatalities.
zZz…. that would only reduce the 99% likelihood of fatalities at a gun range down to 90% maybe.
Yaahhh paint ball! Or we could all get together to rent one of those party boats and do a cruise of Halifax Harbour or something.
“Hey, anyone hear that splash? Anyone seen kay lately? NGF, why the big smile?”
yeah, something tells me the ‘no shooting the head’ rule would be ignored… and I’d certainly be wearing a cup.
a harbor cruise would be nice, or maybe we should all hit the silva @ 10 one friday and have a drunken bitches party.
speaking of drunken bitches… where’s kay’s retort?
Oh, hi again Kay.
I was just answering someone else’s question, since you asked why some of us have presumed you were from Alberta.
Honestly, if I have misunderstood your quote that goes “Calgary is my home town” by all means let me know and I will not make the same terrible mistake of assuming that Calgary is your home town again.
As for the headlines, I just thought it would be nice to let everyone know that bad old Halifax doesn’t hold any special monopoly on the evils that torment you so much. And as for “big city”, well Edmonton certainly does sprawl, but it has never felt very “big city” in my experience.
Have a great evening Kay. Go out and do something fun.
We’ll all be back here tomorrow checking in on the bitches and bitchers between work duties!
Ha ha…you said doodie!
Well a lot of days those two words seem quite interchangeable.
“Go out and do something fun.”
Karaoke at Bearly’s tonight! You in, kay? Invite Desi along too if you wish. You can sing “Hello City” by the Barenaked Ladies if you want.
We should sing “Crazy Bitch” by Buckcherry. Fun song!
KAY!
You’re a crazy Bitch,
But you post so much we’re all over it.
When I’m posting, on LTWWB all night,
Your controversial posts are there to keep me reading.
Crazy bitch…
Crazy bitch…
Crazy… bitch!
Kay as other posters mentioned – I’ve read all your post and you say your home town is calgary – so yea i don’t assume i got it from the horses mouth or in your case the horses ass – and totally a presumption of me being your friend i’m a typical scoitain and say my friend in lieu of asshole – trust me its not a compliment – so dummy up – its your information on your posts i’m using – jesus are you really that much of a twit – ? really ? Honest to god – your one stupid motherfucking individual . Anyways I’ve had my fun and i’m not a newbie poster i just forgot my other password from before and just made a new one . Other then that I am done pointing out your idiocy today – you do a FINE job of that all one your own . Unless you coming from home town calgary is a lie then your excused – other wise you owe the bitchers an apology for shooting your mouth off about comment YOU made and pretending everyone assumed – wherein the got it from your post . Nuff said – carry on looking stupid – since your into teaching civilty – i’m sure also your anti violence and our bully tactics comment have all become null and void . Anyways i dare ya to retort now that we all have your past posts at hand ! Fuckin one dumb ass forsure .
Ps as i check back on my posts i never once mention ” my friend or wanting to be your friend. Thou, Albeit it sounded suspisiouly sarcastic i did see qmpz say that . Jesus what would i want a friend like you for? Another thing – this is a bitch forum not english class – so if you only can rip on my lack of ” I don’t give a fuck how i spell shit” – then your a total loser. Oh wait you can’t get it unless it’s spelled right my bad .
You didn’t make the assumption, Ruby, theweedhog did. And there you go off to piss me off… again. Are you good at ANYTHING else? Maybe you should look at the populations of the cities whose headlines you posted and compare THAT to your beloved and safe HRM. Get off my case, Ruby. Stick to the OP.
Desi wouldn’t be caught dead performing free or, worse, paying to perform for you fuckers. YOU have a good time pretending you’re a musician at karaoke…. whatever.
theweedhog, you think for a minute anybody believes you read archives back to last August to tease out that little tidbit about me? Everybody knows only Ruby and her little friend Oceanlady find me THAT interesting. “NOW that we all have your past posts at hand…” If it weren’t for Ruby you’d still be singing out of the side of your head. Who’s the dumbass? Lie much? You MUST be from NS.
oh and weedhog, I was responding to fizz about friendship. Don’t let your head blow up now…. old or new, you’re still an asshole.
And hey, keep it up. People everywhere take your points seriously when you can’t be bothered to communicate it with correct spelling. What are you, like 10 just learning how to spell f-u-c-k? Spell this, “FUCK YOU VERY MUCH. HAVE A SHITTY DAY.”
Kay, let’s be serious for a second.
What. The. Fuck. Is. Wrong. With. You.
Are you off your meds? On the wrong meds? In desperate need of a true and satisfying orgasm? What the hell is it that makes you so bitter, combattive, confrontational, hypocritical and downright unpleasant?
Kay, I didn’t make an “assumption” about your hometown.
I simply did a quick search in the archive to verify information I recalled you posting before, to see if I had made a mistake about the city that you claimed to be from. It did indeed say “Calgary” so that is what I’m going on.
By all means, if there has been an error, please do let us know and we won’t make the “assumption” about you being a Calgarian anymore.
I’m not stalking you, I’m just checking the facts before responding to posts comparing Alberta and NS, since that seems to be the topic we are discussing.
And I’m always happy to discuss it, having lived in both places myself. It doesn’t matter to me if it’s you or anyone else who cares to extoll or denounce either place.
The only reason I have time to post here this week is because I am waiting to hear about some projects that will mean I won’t be able to play here very much longer, so I’m having my fun while I can. I like to stir the pot as much as anyone else.
Really, it’s physically impossible to be 100% miserable every minute of every day, even on a forum devoted entirely to bitching. Have a lovely day, Kay, and I hope everything turns around for you in the New Year.
Haha kay still no response about your hometown being calgary . DO you lie much ? Anyways your really boring and repetitive . Yes i am a total asshole – most people either tell me in person or send me hate mail , so your right . I come from NS and again your right . It’s an assumption i actually did or didn’t read it – being an ip “professional” – let me know if you want my IP so you can backdoor my comp and since i haven’t cleared my browser cache – have yourself a check to actually see what i read before YOU assume I DON’t Read . Now dumbass – all that venting about assumptions people make – have a look at your post and see if you are the one that makes the most assumptions – I did and I think you do . Totally pathetic – really get your meds changed or something . For someone that hate NS so much – you sure stick around . If I hate a city ( i have lived in several ) I move – I don’t bitch and whine and piss tears like a fuckin hurricane – i just move . See thats the beauty my profession and skill trades – I don’t need to suck ass in a place a I hate for years in order to leave before i have another job . I just leave and show up in any city and make good wage . My god I really pity you – But – just as a nice qesture , I have sent a box of really nice gucci towels i paid a fortune for back home so peple that know you can hand to you to dry your eyes on . WOW – totally I fell sorry for you or anyone thats so bitter and fustrated in a city they can’t leave .
Ps kay i had a wonderful day cashing a nice paycheque today with paid time off and bonus . How about you ? Telling me to fuck you very much is like telling me to have a great day I love it – because it shows me I am right and succedded in pissing off a moron – which is duty and god given right being a scotian . Wow – it’s not english class and everyone else mis spells and can actually get the conveyed message. See your running out of shit to rip on and all you got ( sorry “have”) left is ripping on someones spelling . Seems to me to be true, because now your pissed about it . HAHA oh well atleast your easy to get to and very entertaining you asshat albertain or upper canadian or whatever you are ( do i have to describe the differences between upper and lower canada for you or would you rather google it? My job is done – PS I like your hometown – noone here is like you !!!
I signed my employees’ Christmas bonus cheques about 10 days ago. You should ask those people how they feel about me taking my business out of province.
You keeping “jobbing it” hog. And have a good time with that.
Is CowTown my hometown? Yes. You know it… either because Ruby said so (after her “quick” search through over 2000 posts) or you’re too ashamed to say what sock puppet you’ve been before. Whatever. I think I’ll go rip my employee a new asshole and watch for an interesting bitch tomorrow…. hmm, maybe my peon employee is your mom? Your Dad? Let’s find out.
Am I learning Nova Scotians, or what?
Fuck you all.
You never cease to amaze, my sweet. Fuck you right back with a rusty fork.
weedhog….
Shut the fuck up. Someone should tell your mother (and coincidentally your sister since they are the same person) to revoke your internet account. Surely your parents need be incestuous for you to be this damaged.
I don’t care if you’re white, black, brown,…. you’re much more redneck by far.
seriously, how many double shots of 150 do you have to hammer down to rant and spell that poorly?
kay’s assumption of 10 is being generous.
I can attempt to tolerate you in small doses but double-post after double-post of idiotic slurring and rambling shows you aren’t even attempting to relay your thoughts coherently so I choose not to make many more attempts to understand you or them.
learn to flush out your english, typing skills and thoughts and you may just be a decent poster actually worth taking the time to read.
Redneck yes – and how pathetic you need to bitch where my heritage might come from . Shows me some really small mind ZZZ . Really – from you – i take it as a commpliment . Kay giving your employees a paltry bonus is nothing to brag of – i am aware of NS wages – not worth bragging about . By the way ZZZ your sister is my mom and therefore that must make you incestious because I’m your father . Get better rips bitchers – them ones are old and from grade school times . Yep
How small a mind does one need to interperet “I don’t care if you’re white, black, brown…” as bitching about your heritage. Ah, right! “Them ones”
I think 10 must be in the ballpark
Again very feeble attempt – really thats all ya got ? wow !!!
I’m impressed. Really these comments are hilarious and having a 500 dollar day off – it’s entertainment i need not pay for . Kay your just happy that the attention is off you for the shrt while untill you fuck up again – awesome – enjoy the little time you have princess !!! LMAO – like i’m soooooooo offended by humorous comments !!! I await the next !!!!
jesus i should read moire of the post to understand so I don’t offend ZZZ with double posts but suck this one up ZZZ – because as usual KAY fucks up with this . How small a mind does one need to interperet “I don’t care if you’re white, black, brown…” as bitching about your heritage. Ah, right! “Them ones”
When in fact The reference is to my mom and sister both being my mother . Jesus KAY do you ever stop being a dummy? you limelight lasted only as long as your next post .
wow…
just wow.
tell me you have a helmet on.
I gave it to you remember ?
A homo habilis discovering his opposable thumb says what?
Hi Kay, FYI:
I clicked the big “Kay” button under the “Top Commenters” headline . . .
. . . then I clicked the “all comments” link . . .
. . . and typed “Calgary” in the find box . . .
and all 38 matches for the word were highlighted in the archive.
It took about, oh, 5 seconds, so it’s not as if I spent all afternoon searching through 2000 posts.
You’re the IT pro, Kay—you know how easy these things are to do.
OMG I am done ribbing KAY she’s just poison haha I’ll let people like ruby point these things out .
Ruby, you knew what you were looking for… just give it up. The only reason you’d pony up that bit of info is to piss me off. It’s worked. Piss off!
If I’m “poison” what exactly does that make you, hog?
It makes me a scotian in your home town . which by the way I don’t really have a bitch about ? OK by you ?
Calgary used to be a small, warm community. Now I liken it to the cold, hard, GTA although the planning department sure did something right there.
I met and worked with several Nova Scotians in Calgary. They were all extremely nice and a helluva lot of fun. Funny, I ran into one who opted to move home a few months back, and funny, he was being a miserable piece of shit alcoholic staggering down the sidewalk in Dartmouth lookin’ at me sideways. At least he was a happy alcoholic neighbor in Calgary. There’s just something about this town… one has to never come here to appreciate it.
That ain’t my problem – thats his and yours . One drunk ass staggering idiot represents all calgarians in nova scotia ?
If there is a button to be pushed, I cannot resist.
And there is such a big, bright, shiny black ‘n’ red one right beside your name.
But oh, look! It’s 4:19! Why, it must be gettin’ purdy close to quittin’ time here in ol’ NOVEE SCO-SHEE!
Think I’ll clock out for the day, and maybe stagger down the street in a drunken stupor, looking someone to arm-wrestle with, or better yet, punch flat out! YEEHAW!!!!
Have a great evening, it’s been fun!
HAHA
“If there is a button to be pushed, I cannot resist.”
I know what you mean, RubyJane. It is soooo hard to resist sometimes = ).
This is one of the reason’s I chose DeeDee (from Dexter’s Laboratory) as my photo. Her main catch phrase is: “What does this button do?” (And, try as she might, she cannot resist pushing it.)
From Kay: “theweedhog, you think for a minute anybody believes you read archives back to last August to tease out that little tidbit about me? Everybody knows only Ruby and her little friend Oceanlady find me THAT interesting.”
You flatter yourself, Kay, making the assumption that I find you interesting. I find your opinion of yourself fits the Floydian definition of boarish and your opinion of others, especially Nova Scotians, to be narrow-minded and self-serving of your tendancy towards anger, negativity, bitterness and the need to be right. I have lived in a lot of communities both large and small in and out of Nova Scotia and there are good and bad in all of them. How one gets on with people has everything to do with one’s approach. Those with winning personalities are easily accepted while those with lacking personal skills tend to find the type of response that you have been describing.
Also an assumption:
That I am in any way interested in your archives.
That I am friends with Ruby Jane or anyone else on LTWWB. I can agree or disagree with fellow bitchERs opinions, including yours, without having to be a friend.
That you think you know my actual identity in a province of thousands.
hmmmmmmmmmm oh well – sounds about right oceanlady.
As excellent as OceanLady’s posts are, I must confirm her statement that we are not friends. I don’t know her, I have no idea who she is in real life.
Not that I wouldn’t want to know her—I am sure she is a fine person. I just don’t want you to think that we are all part of some little LTWWB club that gets together and hangs out anywhere but here.
Look, Kay, just listen for a sec in all seriousness. I promise I won’t be facetious.
I KNOW what you mean about Calgary. I used to love it too, but I could not live there now. So, it might surprise you to now that I DO understand when you say you don’t fit in with Halifax.
But to me that means you really need to think about, and make some decisions about, where you really, truly, in your heart, want to live your life.
Now listen: I’m not saying that in a nasty hillbilly tone of “Y’all don’t like how we doo thangs ’round harr, y’all just better leave.” What I’m trying to say is more important than that.
More in the manner of: where, where of all places in the world, do you really, really want to be? What country? What size city? What language? What kinds of foods? In what kind of business?
It is a decision that EVERY person should think about at some point in their life. Why? Because life is too short to spend any of it as a prison sentence in a place you really, really hate.
I happen to believe that climate and geography are key factors in personal happiness. There are towns, cities and countries where I know I could never live, and hope that I never have to. I believe we can do ourselves actual harm if we try to force ourselves to fit in to a place where we just cannot feel at home.
You know, you actually have a pretty entertaining writing style. If you really are passionate about ideas for personal change and urban development, why not change tactics and start writing for real? I mean really for real? If you took the time to present and polish your thoughts in a different context, I would actually read it—even though of course I (and all the other readers) may not always be in agreement. That’s what keeps it healthy.
It would be a good way to make something positive happen as a result of your frustrations. You would be participating in a dialog a little more challenging than LTWWB—Which is really just meant for light entertainment and venting. But you would have to brace yourself for contrary opinions too. And I think you could handle it.
Honestly, we all know that you aren’t going to find fulfillment at karaoke night. Most people don’t. It’s called kidding around.
I’m signing off now, for good this time, but I think you need to think some things over in all seriousness, so that you can change that rather unsettling status line on your profile.
Oceanlady, RubyJane and HKM all in a row (reminds me of a Eagles song, ha ha)…we only need EasyGoingGal now, and Kay will be surrounded by all of those who she loves to hate. Of all the posters here at LTWWB, I wonder why it is us that seems to agitate her so? We don’t call her names, or threaten her, and we try to be understanding, patient, sometimes kind, so why does she hate us? Especially since the reason she hates Halifax is because she claims not to be able to find people who are understanding, kind, patient or polite? Strange.
There are few things that can get under a person’s skin like uninvited, marginal analysis followed by unsolicited advice and I think that’s where it began (and continues) with you ‘ladies’.
Easy laymans term is ” phychotic unfulfilled malcontent” .. But each to their own man – really seriously – i really don’t care what kay or anyone thinks because its a free world and anyone can say what they want . If that person or any person is soooo unhappy – so unfulfilled – then please leave – travel around – fit in and live where your happiest . Don’t stay – income doesn’t mean shit if your a professional – or if some people will miss your income brought in – it doeswn’t conclude happiness . It actually means shit and your just delaying the obvious- Leaving . Go be happy – if you don’t fit – you don’t fit . Tough live on . My “jobbing it ” way of using skill trade to follow my right as a canadian to follow a strong paying economy gains me more then 100 k a year net. I’m a sub contracter that works for himself and pays himself . I never left NS because I’m unhappy I love it it’s home – i just can’t make as much without putting in 20 hour days i can make in 10 hours – thats all . I never had a problem fitting in any city i lived in because i weed out the dummies – etc etc and just get along – it’s pretty easy . I don’t go on ripping calgary about not being NS because it isn’t – canada has a wide range of diversity in cultures and you can’t change them only accept them . Anyways thats how i see it .
Kay: I’m not sure I am among those who offered advice. I merely pointed out some assumptions that were made on my behalf that are incorrect in a thread where I hadn’t even volunteered an opinion but got dragged into this conversation none-the-less. Nor have I provided a marginal analysis. I merely formed an opinion based upon what I have been presented with. So kindly uninclude me from whatever it is you think the ladies you mentioned are doing.
haha, guys…
Just stop reading theweedhogs posts. Or at least stop responding.
Stop feeding it…
haha
