Seal skin. He’s Canadian.

You understand this is a comments section on the internet, right?

Look. One last time. I told you all what someone else said. I even pointed out that it wasn’t necessarily based on fact, that it was used to bark down (likely) white men who couldn’t help but feel they were being ignored. Good lord, if I wasn’t clear enough before, allow me to be so now: I didn’t present anything as…

I’ll note Wikipedia (that bastion of reliability) says he was born in Boston. Take from that what you will.

Outstanding.

Holy shit, are you still here? Listen, I hear life calling, wondering where you are.

Jesus, I can’t believe I’m doing this when I explicitly said (and I’m quoting here) “it doesn’t fucking matter in the context of the story.” But I will clarify that it wasn’t my anecdote. It was someone else’s anecdote. And if she was wrong about those numbers (she wasn’t, since it was someone else who made the…

I know. I also wasn’t planning a civics lesson for our US friends. They’ve already heard me rant enough.

And, thanks to Canadian journalist Doug Saunders, #lonewolftenorism is now a Thing.

Holy shit, the guy is a Flat Earther as well!

Eh. She was A) going from memory and B) admittedly young and following the lead of others at the time. And rather than get into a bullshit argument, perhaps this was a line fed to stupid men so they would just walk away. Remember, pedants do exist in real life, but they’re most likely to propagate on the internet.

Sportsnet, one of Canada’s two sports channels and the one carrying the game, has shut off comments for this story. That’s... rare.

We only do both anthems if an American team is visiting. If it’s an all-Canadian affair, than it’s only the new, All Lives Matter-approved Canadian anthem, followed by a good cry as we remember the glory days when we made te playoffs.

There were, but we traded PK Subban to Nashville.

Now changed from “In all thy sons command” to “In all of us command” to make it more inclusive. The last bill of an MP who is very swiftly dying from ALS.

In a conversation on a friend’s Facebook wall yesterday, another of her friends noted that years ago she was at a breast cancer fundraiser when a bunch of men (she didn’t say, but I am willing to bet large sums they were as pasty-looking as me) barged in and started yelling about prostate cancer. A woman there yelled…

I was a trumpet player in a concert band, and in 1980 went with our All City Band to Japan for a tour. Little did we know our conductor had booked us to play in a baseball stadium in a marching band fest. (Actually, I don’t know if HE knew.) Four hours of rehearsal the day before, about 30 minutes of drills the…

I wasn’t a big sports fan when I was a kid for some reason, even though I played plenty. Probably arguing in the schoolyard during recess over who was the better goalie, Ken Dryden or Bernie Parent. Fights almost broke out.

Yeah, they forced Wales to play their game. I wondered if Carvalho being suspended might cause some balance issues, but no. In the meantime, I count a total of three (3) 0-0 games. There were seven (7) in the last World Cup.

Mad, I tell you, mad!
