Seriously. I felt like Grandpa Simpson reading this article, and I’m not even 35 yet.

The dindo ate their baby!!

Hey now, if it’s a cheese sauce, a little bit of Keene’s powdered mustard can provide a nice little sharp kick. I agree with not adding it to a tomato sauce though. The other thing that makes me wrinkle my nose at this sauce a bit is the fact that it doesn’t actually use a soffritto as base, despite the shitload of…

Me too! This is the best possible outcome! Three cheers for Dr. Obeng!!

Right?! Be prepared for the Maple Invasion baby!

See, it’s kinda funny, because everyone says “Oh those Canadians are so nice! Oh, those Canadians are so polite!”

I wish I had more stars to give. All of the stars. This literally made my day.

Granted I guess... I’ve never been to California or anything, but I gotta think that if it’s necessary to see a plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills in the first place, and it’s getting done for free, this is not a matter of soaking and scraping that shit off. In fact, afaik, that’s already been tried by medical…

Definitely farther:

This is a shitty take. I’m not saying what she did wasn’t stupid. But when I see someone suffering and likely to experience life changing injuries, even if it’s because of their own making, I can’t help but feel sympathy. It’s not like she did it as a stunt. And if you feel an ounce of pleasure or schadenfreude from…

Frankly, they are probably going to have remove scalp tissue at this point. This is going to be a pretty major surgery, and recovery. I doubt that whatever skin they manage to keep or graft to her head will be capable of growing hair again.

I really hope so. I hope she doesn’t need skin grafts or something, which would probably mean no more proper follicles. All in all, I think we can be excused for an errant giggle here and there when this first came about. But knowing just how serious and likely life changing this is going to be for her... it’s just…

No one is arguing against teaching the basics. It’s how the basics are taught, and the idea of what constitutes the basics. Critical thinking is part of the basics you cunt. You’re effectively suggesting teaching Shakespeare before describing the abstract concept of “poetry” or “theater”. You know what teaching…

And slightly more evil.

Lol exactly. Was starting to wonder if *I* was the crazy one here.

I learned to sail in Hamilton Harbour with my sea cadet corps! Capsize drill was pretty unpleasant. Oh the stench... dead fish and steel mills. That’s crazy you’re actually pretty close by. I’m downtown Toronto on the waterfront, just west of Spadina Wharf. If things weren’t so messed up pandemic wise, I’d say we…

Wish I could give a thumbs down here. You know what’s more difficult? Being a kid who thinks above and beyond any of your peers or teachers, getting vilified for it, dropping out because of it, getting into all manner of trouble because the education system failed you, and taking the next 15 years to piece your life…

Oh man! I spent a weekend in Grimsby at an AirB&B for a wedding a few years ago! What a gorgeous, charming little town! Eh, I honestly try to avoid going back to KW. I know it’s changing a lot re/ the whole Silicon Valley North thing, but too many bad memories. Too many ghosts. Great place to raise young kids. Not a…

Absolutely. Critical thinking needs to be taught waaaaay before university. When students are children.
