So I took my ten-month-old to Chocolate Lake for his first swim a couple of days ago. The water was fun (though chlorinated? WTF, HRM? That’s another Bitch, though), but when we were back on the beach, he spent his time toddling around trying to pick up the copious cigarette butts littering the beach. I want to point out the FAULTY FUCKING LOGIC of smokers who think that a) some ashtrays have sand in them, therefore b) all sandy places are ashtrays. You dick wrinkles! Pick up your fucking butts so my baby can walk three feet without touching your nasty habit. So fucking gross.

I hate it when they do it when the cigs not totally out. one got caught in my flip flop the other day as I walked down the sidewalk. the pain!and yes. dick wrinkles- AWESOME. that is now a part of my vocabulary.
So I took my ten-month-old to Chocolate Lake for his first swim a couple of days ago. The water was fun (though chlorinated? WTF, HRM? oh mum, do you think it may have something to do with the fact that the lake is fed from the outflow of the lake supplying water to HRM, and consequently that little thing called bacteria count? google is your friend.
the lake is not chlorintaed at all…..that is a halifax urban myth…lol
If there was chlorine in the lake there would be no living organisms in it (fish, seaweed, bugs, birds, etc). Who could afford to chlorinate a lake? What an ecological disaster that would be. People actually believe this stuff? Wow.
