I’m sick of The Coast and it’s “holier than thou” readership. Leave it to every major center to have at least 1 pompous, “I’m cool because i’m not mainstream”, annoying, poorly written newspaper. In Vancouver it is the georgia strait, here it’s the coast.
You need to stop publishing this piece of garbage for a few reasons:
-You are providing direction for those “I hate society, I’ll lash out by showing my ingratitude by reading dan savage and all those stupid columns on pubs and events, as if I even have sex or ever go out
-those stupid municipal malfunction tickets really get on my nerves. Why don’t you take some of your advertising dollars and fix them yourself? Better yet why not run for city hall? you could do a better job I’m so sure!
God I hate that I read this newspaper, and I hate even more I’ll cut out this bitch, paste it to my refrigerator and feel like i’ve accomplished something for seeing it in print.

Sorry, we only print the bitches of our friends.
I read the Strait once. Its almost as cool as The Coast.
“‘I hate society, I’ll lash out by reading columns about pubs?'”
Take that society! And that!
What’s so wrong with Municipal Malfunction? I love how it calls to attention the idiocy of our bureaucrats.
The coast has its ups and downs… and you’ve used one of it’s services to vent so it can’t be all that bad.
You are, in fact, now a registered member.
So why do you bother to read the Coast if you detest it so much? No one is holding a fucking bazooka to your head.
Maybe we should start holding bazookas to the heads of our mainstream neighbours, force them to read about pubs and events, and give them something real to bitch about.
Two words, Savage Love.
Best column ever.
