Don’t forget the people using toenail clippers. On their toenails.  On the TTC. True story.

Holy shit, woodle. What a fucking nightmare.

I was on the Carlton streetcar when I saw a dad hand his packet of cigarettes to his baby son to play with while he messed around on his phone. I bet the baby would have a cigarette out in less than three minutes and I was right. The kid was just about to jam it into his mouth, tobacco end first, and I was reaching…
