Bus Riding Etiquette

Posted on Mon, Mar 30, 2009 at 11:05 PM

To the creep guy who rode the inter-city bus today: under no circumstances is it ever ok to reach over while I am SLEEPING and start stroking my hair and rubbing my ear! The reason I ran off the bus is because I was scared half to death and was this close to calling the police! P.S. just because you wear headphones doesn't mean no one else can hear your music, I am "lucky" enough to listen to every note of your terrible songs.

Probiotic does not equal Healthy.

Posted on Mon, Mar 30, 2009 at 10:10 PM

Look, people, Probiotic food is about as healthy as a Salmonella infection. In fact, it functions in the same fashion, that being it replaces the normal bacteria in your gut and when there is an overabundance of the bacteria, you evacuate the invaders. Thus, all of the "health benefits" associated. All of the beneficial effects can be attained by simply eating healthier overall, and eating more fibre. You don't need to spend 6 bucks on a 4 pack of yogurt drinks. Eat some whole grains, and you'll see what I mean. Not to mention too, we go around our house trying to eradicate the little buggers with anti-bacterial cleaners. Finally, they're only recycling the bacteria that they use to make the yogurt in the first place...

Dreads

Am I the only one who thinks dreads are disgusting? Please tell me, what is the appeal of dreads? Why do people do this to their hair?

Stop whining about job searching!

Posted on Mon, Mar 30, 2009 at 10:07 PM

For cripes sakes, if you are not having any luck in your job search, stop complaining here! There are tons of jobs in Halifax. Now, there may not be a job that YOU want, you know, cool, little work, lots of pay.....but there are tons of jobs. If your bitch is "I want to work in a gold mine and there are no gold miner jobs...." then get bitchin I say. But for chrissakes stops the generic 'I hate Halifax it's horrible and there are no jobs rant' And if you are going to rant, be specific so that we can tear it apart.

Coasted Away With My Purse

Posted on Mon, Mar 30, 2009 at 10:05 PM

So there I was enjoying my breakfast at [higher end breakfast place]. I take my purse up, pay for breakfast, replace my purse into my satchel and sit back down. I make my 5 minute jaunt to a friend's where low and behold my purse is missing. I quickly go back to [higher end breakfast place] where sadly the purse is not. I've been had. Jacked. Ripped off. All out fucked in the ass as my job happend to pay me in cash the night before so rent, bills and groceries for the month just walked out the door. So thanks! P.S. If you can afford to be at [higher end breakfast place] for a meal then you can afford to not steal my purse. Get fucked!

Stop wasting my TIME!

Posted on Mon, Mar 30, 2009 at 1:27 PM

Degree, check, Diploma, check, excellent career experience, check! So, why is it that you apply over and over for job postings, but never get a call for an interview? I am a firm believer that the Maritimes is getting worse and worse for "it's all in who you know" Is anyone even looking at my resume? Do I have to sleep with you first? What kind of bribe are looking for? If you're hiring within, stop posting the freakin' ad and stop wasting my time!!!!

The gentrification of Gottingen Street

Posted on Mon, Mar 30, 2009 at 1:25 PM

I'm all for urban renewal but has anyone noticed the condo developments on Gottingen Street lately? Where are you going to stick the poor and disaffected this time? It's only a matter of time before Uniacke square becomes a part of history much like Africville. Oh well, they're just poor people....

Bar Cover charge

Posted on Mon, Mar 30, 2009 at 1:07 PM

So let me get this straight- bars owners are in a fight to the death for revenues and so even if we are on a guest list we wait in line up to get in- then we pay $5+ to get in- then we wait to get served- and we are expected to tip on top of all the hassle? Then if you a smoker you have to go outside but you can't take your drink out and you can't take your smoke in? And when you are finished your smoke you have to wait in line-up to get back in even though you have a stamp from already paying the cover? Ah...I have to think about this...pass...Think we'll just have a party at home thanks and save the $20 in cabs. Good luck with that.

Ahhh Choo

Why must I always be assaulted by the putrid smells of perfume every time I enter the drug store? I've complained in person and via e-mail to no avail. Is anyone else tired of the "scents" every time you walk in the door?

Oxford Theatre - Friday, March 27

Posted on Mon, Mar 30, 2009 at 7:37 AM

To the douche at the Friday 9:15 showing of The Haunting in Connecticut,

If you're going to laugh at all the parts you find hilariously funny you should definitely use your most annoying, fake and pretentious laugh. It's not infuriating at all when you're getting into a moderately emotional, sort of well done scene and have someone laughing obnoxiously loud behind you, but you obviously know that.

Just sayin', you probably weren't the only person who found the movie cheesy and funny at times but you really don't need to let everyone in the whole theatre know by basically screaming your thoughts outloud.

PS: you were right there was no ending music and we all heard you the first time you said it. Great observational skills.
