So standing at the bus station at MicMac mall today March 22 I watch as people cross the street. One girl stopped looked before crossing. Once she sees the cars have stopped she continues to walk, while looking so engrossed on her text message. That she walks right into the car that was stopped for her. She did not stay in the cross walk lines she walk off them right into the car. Less then 5 minutes later another woman starts crossing with the cars yet again stopped and she stops in the middle of the cross walk to look at her phone's text message. Has cell phone usage fried people brains? These people should be fined. —Staying safe

To all my fell drivers. There are, typically, two lanes on our highways and some roadways. If you are in the left lane on the highway, the expectation is that you will actually be passing, not hanging out watching the other cars whiz by. It is also expected if turning that you enter the lane closest to you and not cross all traffic and cut people off. MAYBE it is time to enforce driving lessons every 5 years so people learn to drive. God help these people if they ever drive in a bigger city or in Europe. They will be creamed! LEARN TO DRIVE FOLKS OR STAY THE FUCK HOME! —Dantrivett

Sipping lattes at their favourite high end coffee shop, while campaigning for people they avoid in real life from their $2000 laptops. Creating an entire field of study and surrounding industry that does nothing but line their own pockets. Making themselves look like heroes by blaming and attacking the one group of people who will never fully turn on them and are unlikely to respond forcefully. Crying victimization at even the slightest recourse to reinforce their delusions... and creating echo chambers were they tell each other how well they're doing, what good people they are, and reinforcing all the rest of the garbage that they say so that reality will hold off just a little longer, and they can continue acting our their superhero daydreams. —A honest asshole

Some restaurants, not to name any names..., have decided that a burger and a slider are the same thing. When I go to a restaurant for a burger week burger, I want a BURGER, not a slider! If you can't afford to do a $6 FULL burger, then do one of the donations to Feed Nova Scotia and charge more or advertise your pathetic excuse for a burger as the slider that we all know it is. YOU'RE RUINING BURGER WEEK FOR ME! —gettinghangryonsliders

The highlight of my week is my steam on Friday night. Increasingly each week more and more ignorant hillbillies are ruining it by opening the door to the steam room, sticking their fat heads in venting out all the steam exclaiming with amazement “Oh boy! It’s really hot in here!”. Or worse, fan the door to “cool” it down while trying to decide if you want to go in because YOU DON’T LIKE HEAT!?. What part of the concept of a steam room do you find difficult to comprehend? There is a severe shortage of steam rooms in the HRM and it’s the only place to calm my Slavic soul. —Andrey

Hey Bridge Commission Shuttle Drivers, stop using the lame-assed excuse that for insurance reasons, you can't drop off passengers closer to their destinations. You are both LICENSED and INSURED to drop people off wherever the hell you want. This excuse of yours is almost embarrassing to the whole city. Whatever happened to the friendly, hospitable Halifax I knew and loved as a child??? —Commercial Driver

When you drunkenly ring my doorbell and wake me up in the middle of the night then demand to be let into my building without telling me who you are or what you want, guess what the last thing I'm going to do for you is? I hope you see this and realize what a fucking idiot you are. Because next time, I'm just going to call the police. —Learn to count, idiot!

As a devoted vegan flower-power child, this week is a frustrating but popular event that makes me want to cut off my ears. I understand that the week of March 18-24 is one that is greatly loved and supported by restaurants and Haligonians. Sure, it’s great exposure and competition for restaurants. But constantly hearing what kind of flesh sandwich you can't wait to devour is extremely vomit inducing and hard for me to get my head around. I can understand that this week is one where people come together and bond over meals and get deals that allow them to have a cheap beer with their flesh sandwiches, but like WTF. I know that there is a demand for vegan/vegetarian burgers, and yes I know they've been minutely included in this event, but why isn't there a vegan Burger Week where I can celebrate how wonderful plants are and not be HIGHLY excluded from this event? Feeling like the only vegan in Halifax is one thing, but why can’t we all just chill and bond over plant burgers with each other, y’know? —Passionate Groovy Vegan Chick

Okay, I know it's an open public place. Meandering with coffee. Sampling a muffin or some sort of pastry. Yet there seems to be this treatment that the Central Library is like a cafeteria. The wafting stench of potent caesar salad dressing in the non-fiction section. The stinky roast beef sandwich coming from a nook on the third floor. And, as I experienced a few days ago, the kid who was noisily slurping his noodles which also stank strongly of soya sauce or maybe it was teriyaki. This is not a dam restaurant. Outside food should be banned in the library. Or there may as well be a bloody pizza oven installed in the history section. —Library lover, stick to the recipe books only

Lately I go to the Tim's at lacewood plaza and it's a circus. One side of the place is women, the rest of it is men of the same nationality. Noisy, noisy noisy. About 10% of them have a beverage. One table has 8 guys playing dominos, but they slam the tile down on the table! ¡!very annoying. Bunch of kids running around. Just don't expect a civilized environment. Is this what we can expect as their public behavior. Get a keurig and invite some friends over. —my breaks are important to me
