When you ask a girl out on a date and take her number , the polite thing to do is show up for the date or at least make a call or send a text if you’re not going to make it . Simply very rude and an embarrassing feeling for a lady . —E.D.

That sucks, but don’t internalize it; it’s not a reflection of you. You dodged a bullet and at least avoided wasting an evening with an asshole.
Very legitimate!
Can’t wait to see how many bitches we get like this NEXT weekend….
Be glad all he or she took was your number.
Hello Ed. In the long run the bagina is a more lethal weapon than the machine gun. We would not let our enemies have machine guns, therefore we must not allow them access to the bagine.

And a girl has never stood up a guy. It’s life, there are good things and bad. Maybe you just dodged a bullet and not realize it.
Oh, he showed up for the date. Took one look and bolted for the door. You didn’t notice?
Hey E.D.
I have never been stood up by a guy before. Once they find out I run a very successful business on Spring Garden Road, have a beautiful waterfront condo and drive a very expensive car with diamond-encrusted handles they are very eager to ask me out. They are usually artists because I guess I am great muse material. I met my current artist boyfriend when he was doing performance art outside my very successful retail store on Spring Garden Road. He had a tim hortons cup full of gold coins and everything. He moved fast because I am so fabulous and suggested we move in right away. Naturally we moved into my beautiful waterfront condo. I didn’t see where he was living, but he said it was full of concrete. We’re so in love.
Shitting into a TH cup is not art, Quan, it’s shitz to go.
I am sooooo envious.

From what you just wrote, sounds to me you just excavated a panhandler off SPR and got him to move in right away, smooth move.
Klyde he is not a panhandler! He is an artist and he loves me! He borrows my credit card all the time to buy me expensive things!
Its about time you recognized I am superior rag hag. You on the other hand are just a stupid whore who wears second hand clothing. You must be very unhappy that you don’t have a huge closet to masturbate to.
Yeah, I realize you’re just a troll account Yin, but you’re not even funny. You just suck.

You don’t know me but I can tell you this much.. Living in a waterfront Condo is beneath me much like wanting to ride a stallion and only getting a mule. Let me get this straight before I fall off my rocking chair…You LEND him your credit card so he can buy you expensive things, you mean such as for B’days and Christmas.. oops can’t forget Valentine’s coming up. You just may as well go and buy these expensive things for yourself seeing as how you HAVE to pay it back. Need to now go to my favourite java hut and laugh till I cry in my java brew.
Do you run a successful business on Spring Garden Road Klyde? Maybe once you do you can stop being so jealous and buy yourself that waterfront condo! My artist boyfriend is wonderful and always gives me free passes when he has his art shows down in the former dump building. He is so trendy.
Aren’t those waterfront condos riddled with rats? Or are they just rich relatives?
You are just a jealous rag hag along with the cat whore. What a bunch of skanks.

You have absolutely nothing this Klyde would ever want. You seem to value having a successful business but fail to value everything else. Success doesn’t come from being materialistic or having being born into money. It is only from one who has pride in themselves and how they view and treat other people that makes one feel any worth. I am successful in my life by who I am, I work hard for my betterment but will never think I’m better than anyone else.
To answer your question. Yes I do run a business on Spring Garden Road.

Troll or not….I’m LMFAO to the point of getting sick.
Klyde that is rediculous. You are just jealous because my expensive things make me very happy and how come poor people are so unhappy? Its because they don’t have expensive stuff. I get blamed for looking down on people who are not as well off as me and I don’t know why! Its not my fault they can’t afford datejust watches with diamonds. Maybe if they put their parents money on the line and opened up a business on Spring Garden Road they would have enough money to buy datejust watches and expensive panties and be happy like me and my artist boyfriend. Cash is king!

Jealous? LMFAO. All in your mind and world darling. A coffee makes me smile and happy.
Well this is my world so its true. Without expensive beautiful things one is nothing because where would I be without my beautiful waterfront condo, my expensive car and my beautiful things? No where that’s where.
tedious, troll. tedious. have you no pride in your work?
I actually detect notes of Zilla in this Yinster…
Zilla did roughly the same thing to TJ when he first appeared, albeit more visually in his mocking than the cut and paste rhetoric.
zilla was truly Godzilla, I still have sear marks on my ass from him flinging me on his brazier of shame. talons baby, talons that shred.
this dot troll is like the wannabe ministry of arguments guy who just contradicts.
I’ve definitely pulled disappearing acts, but never stood anyone up, ever. I don’t get it at all. You can take comfort in the fact that cowards make lousy dates anyways OP. You free this weekend? 😛
and on subject – it is common courtesy. which is far too uncommon
There’s actually a successful business on SGR?!!!!
Bro Tim I unfortunately have had to drive from Barrington St up Springgarden last summer (the horror) & from my observation…which is easy to do,looking out a pickup’s window ,when you are traveling @ .000000005 a kilometre per hour , with 35 minute stops at every freaking set of lights for the sidewalk people. But I degrees, I observed at least 10 people running what appeared to me to be very lucrative begging operations, one guy filled a backpack with what looked like shopping bags filled with coins…. every time his Timmie cup was about half full he dumped it into a plastic bag, he kept inside his ratty looking coat, I seen him do this 27 times while stopped at 1 intersection…but to be fair there had to be a half million people go through that intersection on green, yellow & red signal lights (the colours don’t matter) I noticed, no one walking there pays any attention to the lights.
So yeah there are some mega dollars being made there, by a few of the more intelligent people. … which could also happen in the stores on that street IF the rents & taxes there weren’t in the stratosphere.
SHOW A LITTLE COMMON COURTESY!

For God’s sake Ivan, show a little common courtesy!

Cheerio!
Hey More
My very successful retail business on Spring Garden Road would be a lot more successful if the panhandlers weren’t hanging around in front of it. Don’t I have a right to sell retail goods?
Already “very successful” but resents the “sidewalk entrepreneurs” and somehow thinks they are depriving “Sariputta’s of Spring Garden” from being more successful.
I call “bullshit” on this one.
