Whether it is somebody saying "you people" in a context that appears discriminatory, or somebody seemingly making a broad generalization about hockey players being "bullies," why is the immediate reaction of so many people in either of the instances to demand that offender to be removed from their chosen career or livelihood? I don't agree with either statement that was made, but I also don't agree with an approach that is simply nasty, vindictive and inflammatory. We can criticize, deconstruct and openly discuss things that offend and hurt us without stooping to the level of stripping careers and opportunities from people as a form of justice for our infringed feelings.

I read the Loves all the time hoping someday one will be from someone who noticed me on a bus or at the grocery store and wished they'd said something. Many of these are clearly written about my friends or people I know who get noticed in a "missed connections" kind of way and maybe it's petty of me, but… how come I never get written about? I'm a hell of a woman. Not as thin as my younger prettier friends who get written about? Hmm. Or am I just "intimidating" like they say? I'm not! I'm friendly and approachable! I love people! Unless you're a creep. Then you can fuck right off. Maybe it's just creeps who write in? What does that make me? Oh shit.

Attention running groups of Halifax: stop blocking the fucking sidewalks.
Running shoulder to shoulder on the sidewalk and forcing pedestrians to move out of your way when common courtesy is to do the opposite is obnoxious as fuck.

Yet another holiday has come upon us and my coworkers are talking about yet another social event that I haven't been invited to. It is awkward as fuck to have people talk about plans in front of me like I don't exist. I'm not even mad, rather I am confused and hurt. Team players? What did I do to be treated this way?

Yes, a hurricane is a terrible thing and living through one must be a terrifying experience. But, all you Canadians stuck at Club Med with water and sandwiches bitching that the Canadian Government isn't doing enough to get you out, here's an idea: Send your sandwich makers home to help their own families, make your own damn sandwiches, go across the street and help some devastated family search through what used to be their home and help them start to put their lives together again. Stop your pathetic whining about your situation and help someone who really needs it!

I sympathize—you thought you were going to get your children some toys. Your children, doubtless, deserve toys. The thing is, when it turned out you'd misread the price, there's nothing a cashier can do about it—the "scanning code of practice" protects you from mislabeling, not misreading. So, you were essentially asking the cashier to break the rules for you. I think she should have, but, let's face it, she's almost certainly been subject to decades of capitalist ideological indoctrination that your tantrum in no way addressed. I think you missed a wonderful teaching moment to say, "Look kids, Galen Weston Jr. rakes in billions of dollars denying toys to children over a measly twenty bucks. This is how a society based on wage labour and commodity production devalues real human beings. And this poor, underpaid cashier is expected to run damage control for the bourgeoisie!" Instead, you acted like a jerk. Don't be a jerk, we're all in this together. —Woblaws

I am pretty damn well tired of this. Actors who are self important pompous holier than thous telling other people what to think.
He is going to be the president. Deal with and stop crying.
might as well wish him good luck. If he fails like you all want him to so does your country and perhaps it will bring you down with it
i found it in bad taste for her(classy lady) to go off like she did. She is a pretty good actress much in the vein of Streisand is a singer. Over rated! –chief wiggam

The article on 'Bike parking installed on Cornwallis Street last week has been vandalized repeatedly' is about someone moving the bike corrals off the street and onto the sidewalk between huge planters. There is nothing wrong with that. The person that is parking on the street where the corrals were is totally right. That what car registration is for. If they would register all bikes, they should have a voice, but until then....mute it.
The bike corral was moved off of the street and on to the sidewalk three times in five days. Cry me a river. —Toakey

To a certain pro-life organization: Your offer of "help and support" to pregnant women in crisis makes me sick and angry at the same time. Having been in that situation myself, I know that a visit to your organization would have been traumatizing to me in an already difficult time. And I had the good fortune of having a solid support system around me. Take a good look at the information you're giving out. Unbiased my ass!

No dear what's truly shameful is people like you who allow their children to rule and want and ask for things that are not for them and you allow them to have it. No dear it is you who should be ashamed of yourself for being so ignorant, angry and self-centered and controlled by your children instead of doing the right thing and telling them NO!!!
—I'm not ashamed one bit.
