Random Rants

@Graeme from what my mate told me, I think the worst part was that she had her ovaries removed but then it relapsed/ spread about a year later. my grandfather, thankfully, is doing good many years on after they removed part of his liver due to cancer..

[Graeme]

@louisbosco I'm glad that your grandfather is doing well. The liver can regrow, so it might have regenerated the removed portion.

Guys, don't get carried away. We'll all die. It's a matter of time. Cancer, depression or special military operation. Drink vodka, have sex with a woman and wear an Iron Heart!

If you are on vacation, remember the people who are serving you are not. Don’t be a fucking asshole….they’re just trying to make a living like anyone of us are.

@goosehd I take it not everyone at your hotel/resort is as considerate as you?

[Jett129]

@goosehd Where did you guys go this year?

[Matt]

Tell Laura to take it easy on those guys.

[goosehd]

@Jett129 Turks and Caicos, but it may be our last time in this specific location. Love it for the convenience and because the people/staff here are beautiful (big hearts, beautiful smiles, and kind). For that we love it…

For the other travellers/tourists I can say they are better mannered than last year but there are a few standouts for the wrong reasons.

I have zero problems telling rude patrons to where to go. One time I yelled at a group of high school girls in line a Chick Fil A because they were chatting loudly instead of moving up to make their order. Fuck all the rude people.

I’d pry give up a less loved UHF to have been a fly on the wall for that Chic Fil A experience

[Matt]

My admonishment was sharp and loud. You could have heard a pin drop afterwards.

@Giles @Alex Perfect suggestion for a t-shirt “Fuck all the rude people.” I think that there are a few of us who may buy one or two

[Matt]

My favorite is when the assholes are tearing into someone and they try to get you on their side if if you’re in line next to them. I’m like You're barking up the wrong tree Karen. I think you’re a petty little bitch. Get your iced lattee and go back to irritating your coworkers.

[goosehd]

Another great t-shirt: “You’re barking up the wrong tree Karen”. Keep em coming

@RobeOfTheMagi that’s freaking nuts!! Takes us back to the ‘ol cost per wear argument and even more important the environmental sustainability impact.

Reading that article made me feel alot better about what we’ve got going on here in our community.

Well it’s going to be a long 4 days…60 cm’s of snow predicted for the next 4 days. Schools are all closed for at least tomorrow and all of the local municipalities saying to stay off the roads unless it’s an emergency.

Predicting 60-80 km winds over a bit of the time as well. So snowed in and the possibility of no power. Generator is fuelled and ready, beer fridge stocked, and plenty of food in the house.

@goosehd That sounds like a proper Ontario winter. Stay warm!

That’s why I moved to BC
