Are We Still Talking About This?

Yeah that was a real question. Are we still talking about the Sean Avery incident? Quite honestly I am tired of people trying to say that Avery didn’t deserve to be punished. Simple answer; yes he did. I don’t care if “worse is said on the ice”. I would be surprised if there wasn’t worse said in the [...]

Ok so this one has been bugging me all day. On CP24 they have their lovely little ticker. It provides informative little blurbs and brings many a laugh with it’s awkard language, a product of trying to fit news items into about 100 characters.

Now I haven’t quite decided how I would feel about the idea of a Coalition Government in Ottawa, but let’s get one thing straight; it is not undemocratic. People seem to forget, and I’m sure the conservatives want them to forget, that the Conservative Party did not “win” this past election. The majority of the population [...]

Sexists on Sexism

It’s not surprising to find a bunch of sexist pigs on Digg, however it is amusing to find them debating about what is sexist, especially when they are obviously incapable of even defining what sexism is. Digg founder Kevin Rose has recently apologized for these comments made on Diggnation… “there is only one time you can strike [...]
