I watched you as you took your dog out of the car full of four children in front of the Liquor Store. Your beautiful young German Shepherd dog. Choking itself full force on a choke chain. Please throw that torture tool in the garbage and give your poor dog’s windpipe a break. Please teach your children something other than to dominate helpless creatures by force. Please train your dog by humane methods, or please surrender that lovely animal to the SPCA so someone can properly look after it. Dogs are so intelligent and willing to please their humans, there is no need to hurt them. It was appalling to watch that display. —Speaking for Those who Can't Speak for Themselves

I don't feel safe as a trans woman in Halifax. There, I said it. —Don't Wanna be Murdered Before I’m 30

Listen up all your motherfuckers who keep plowing through crosswalks while I'm trying to cross the street. I don't care that you're late for work, or that you feel you have room to squeeze by while a person is still walking across. You do not have this right. You know the fucking rules of the road, bitch. Don't pretend you don't see me. Wake the fuck up!!! One time an older couple driving a little piece of shit blue car plowed right through the crosswalk while I was walking -- while looking me in the fucking eye. When I scowled at them, the passenger, an older, trashy looking lady actually GAVE ME THE FINGER! You fucking self-righteous! From now on I'll be carrying my handy dandy iphone and snapping a photo of you bastards' license plates and calling crimestoppers on you sons of bitches. —I have had e-fucking-nuff!!!

Nova Scotia Power is holding Nova Scotia back. When are folks going to wise-up and rise-up and fight the power? —fight tha powa!

Dear fellow humans of Halifax; I'm a friendly sort of person. I don't mind making small talk with strangers at the bus stop, the doctor's office, the DMV, or any other place where people are forced to cool their heels in close proximity. We can chat about the weather, or sports, or the city's snow removal performance. Even politics isn't off the table as long as you're not batshit insane. But unless I know you well, by which I mean you are a member of my immediate family or circle of close friends, I do not want to know about your health problems. At all. That shit is private. —Too nice, maybe?

To the prick who was late getting to the Lebrun Centre in Bedford last night at a little after 8:00. I'm sure your daughter and the raccoon you peeled would have been happier if you hadn't been driving 100km/h up Holland Street. My wife had to watch the mother raccoon die as your chicken shit ass kept on driving. I hope you felt some shame as you drove by after picking up your daughter, maybe you could've hit the two babies on the way down. Shame shame shame. —Guy who had to pick carcass off the street

Yes, I am aware that when one shops at a convenience store they are paying for convenience. And of course, I had the option NOT to buy the things I bought. So with all that said, here's my gripe: you are charging over 3 dollars for a 2L of BigHate pop. That junk is like .99 or something at Sobey's and goes on sale for .49 ... how the hell did you arrive at that price? Yes, commenters, I will buy my products elsewhere so save your time typing out the obvious. I just think 3+ dollars for the worlds crummiest pop is crazy and this is just one example over the over-pricing at this location. Also you can go in and say "five dollars worth of pepperoni please" and receive a different amount of pepperoni each time. I stopped buying it for this reason and also because the shopkeepers disappear into some crowded, mysterious, back room to get it. Grodie. —Ugly Kid

The walk to work this morning in our unseasonably mild weather was spoiled by the dog crap all over the sides of the sidewalks. Note to dog owners: SNOW DOES NOT MAKE SHIT DISAPPEAR, it just covers it up until a thaw. When it melts it's 10x grosser. Snow is no excuse for not curbing. Seriously. —Loves Pooches, Not Their Poop

I submitted a bitch about women in the customer service industry. I really hope that it is published or at least put online. This is a very important topic. And a very current issue. And it needs to be brought into light. —previous bitch

I just moved back to Halifax after years away and I'm already sick of walking out my front door with the filth. Bags of dog shit, bags of garbage ripped up and spewed across the sidewalks, cigarette butts by the millions, Over flowing green bins, BAGS OF DOG SHIT!!! There is no one else to blame. Does no one give a rats ass?? Why is this ok?? A lot of folks who live in Halifax come from small towns and I ask where those values are now? Because Halifax in itself is a small town, but why no values? Simple, easy everyday stuff like having pride and being clean.....no concept....this place is a filthy fuckin mess....why is it ok?? It's fuckin shameful is what it is. This place could be much better. Those who spew their mess without thought of care are FUCKIN IDIOTS and should be treated as such.......you dirty bastards are ruining it for the rest of us!!!!....I'm tired of this shit.........no really, go fuck yourselves. —PHYUK AULF
