Middle age Canadian with questionable sanity. When I'm not snarking at stuff, often politics, I'm posting whatever nonsense comes into my head.

Just finished watching the John Candy doc 'I Like Me'. It was good, if sad at times.

He might not have been perfect, he certainly had his flaws and demons, but he choose to be kind and giving and sweet, in addition to being funny. A path we should all try and follow.

We lost him far, far too soon.

I think it's a law that whenever Shocker's mentioned someone has to reference this.

Kirby wins, then the two of them go out to a buffet and ruin the owner's day.

If I was American I'd certainly be fighting for my country.

Just not in the way he wants me to. 😉

Happy Canadian Turkey Day to my fellow Canadians. And to our southern neighbors, Happy Indigenous Peoples Day.

Or if you must... Unhappy Asshole Conqueror Day.

Pay close attention.

It'd be a real shame if this photo of President Obama receiving his Nobel Peace Prize went viral today, for no particular reason.

Oh I'm not saying we hide it. I'm just saying we don't give him any credit. Refer to MAGA as a group when you teach history.

I'd rather history didn't remember 'it' at all. That would be the ultimate insult to the thing occupying the White House if history completely forgot 'it's' name and appearance. Just refer to Republicans as a whole when talking about this shameful period of history.

The question isn't what do you call it. The question is what the FUCK are you going to do about it?

Yup. All those darn left-wing terrorists you have in the States.

Like the guy that shot whatshisface in Utah. Oh wait, he was right-wing.

Or that guy that murdered those Democrat leaders... No wait, he was right-wing too.

Or those people rounding up people because of their color. Oh no, wait...

I was a fan of the original growing up. Reading Rainbow and Next Gen made me a huge Burton fan. And while I admit I know nothing about this new guy, I hope he's as successful as Levar was. Getting kids to read might be more important now than ever.

And now a Muppet News Flash!

The humidity is rising. The barometer is getting low.
According to all sources the street is the place to go.
Because tonight for the first time, at about a half past ten.
For the first time in history, it is going to be raining me-aaagh!
