Do any of you have ethical concerns about how insular and self-serving your industry is? Are you seriously that myopic? Who do you work for?!?!

To the young scooter driver leaving the mall yesterday: Where did you learn to drive that bike? You're going to get yourself injured or killed—passing the cars waiting at the light, by driving up the yellow line, almost getting squeezed into the median as you turned because you were where you shouldn't be, and then passing cars along the curb side is dangerous. There are only two lanes!

I stopped smoking in 2009.
I don't particularly enjoy the smell of cigarettes.
I am completely ashamed and embarrassed of the city's planned smoking ban.

I recently took a stroll down Argyle street/giant sidewalk. I remember when the workers were laying the paving stones last summer and how beautiful it was shaping up. Not anymore! It now looks like a chewing gum and motor oil wasteland. I get the oil drips, but for fuck’s sake people, can you at least discard your gum in the litter bins? Or do we need to change the street name to Leopard Lane?

Peanut butter-chocolate chip cookies?
—No!

It's great to have employers post available jobs on Indeed, Career Beacon, and so on. But please, I beg of you, take the job down once it's filled! I can't tell you how many jobs are still showing up, even though they have been filled for days, weeks, even a month! I could be using my time creating cover letters , resumes and submitting to jobs that are ACTUALLY AVAILABLE.>—Frustrated job seeker

What do you think you are doing? Canada's GDP is smaller than California's GDP. Do you really think you should be playing hardball with Trump? If you fuck this up—and cost me my job—not only will I refuse to vote for you, but I promise to never vote Liberal again.

Every year the university students come back and traffic turns to shit. Every year, enough of the stupid bastards fail—and by Christmas the roads have returned to normal.
You know the expression "What are you waiting for, Christmas?"
—Yes, I am waiting for Christmas!

You: A disgusting man leaving a north end pub after lunch on your bicycle.
Me: Also about to leave by bicycle.
I was taking off a long sleeve top and had a tank top underneath. You said “Keep going!” I responded with ”Learn some manners. It’s 2018.” instead of throwing my bike lock at your knee cap.
You biked away and yelled “Maybe you shouldn’t dress like a slut!” I wish I threw my bike lock at your knee cap. You sure deserved it. Your mom would be really disappointed in you.

Bikers, I love that you're not polluting and I wish I lived close enough to town to bike in. But, when you're at a stop sign or a red light, that means you too! I've seen more cyclists run a red light or stop sign in the past month than I've seen actually stop—including one brazen cyclist who actually flipped off the car they cut off. Who do you think will be hurt the most if you collide? Just fucking stop!
