Lack of or difficulty finding an assertive lady over 70 in Halifax area: I have been seeking an assertive demanding lady over 70 who has no compulsion in stating her demands and being in charge for a very, very long time in this area to date—no success. Women in this area seem to be sexually repressed at this stage in life and un-open to experimentation. Sad for them. —Wanderer

To the ass pick on the corner: Put the guitar away. You suck so bad you force people to jay-walk. —Go away

We've been together for seven months and your eagerness to go downtown evaporated within the first two to three weeks. I am clean and everything like that, I just don't understand what the problem is. I have no issues with licking your snatch and you seem to really enjoy it —so suck my fucking dick already! And not that five minute job where you just bob your head up and down, either. Use your tongue and put my balls in your mouth as well, maybe stroke the stem with one hand whilst you play with my balls. Seriously, you are 34 years old you should know how to suck a dick and please your man by now. —Blue

It's become increasingly difficult to feel safe as a woman in Halifax, in this world. Our desire to feel safe and comfortable is mocked, criticized and ignored. Every mistake we make is thrown in our face and used to prove that we don't deserve any better. –East-coast woman

I just ordered the pizza and garlic fingers from your pizza shop and it cost me 30 bucks! I opened the garlic fingers and only half of them had cheese on them—the outer perimeter was dry as fuck. There were like eight fingers left at the end that didn't even have a shred of cheese on them. To top it all off, the cup of donair sauce that comes with it was only half-full. WTF cheapos! If I'm paying 30 bucks for this dry ass crap, why must you rip people off and be so stingy with the cheese?  FFS, that sauce is only canned milk, sugar and vinegar—stop acting like it's gold. I wont be ordering from there again. Pizza shop assholes: stop scrimping on your toppings and cutting corners to make more of a profit. You used to make a decent pizza, now your product is shit. —Unhappy fat chick

I order a pizza, eat half that night...The next morning I reheat some more for breakie. As I chewed, I felt something tickle the back of my throat. Was it stringy melted cheese? No. It was a long black hair. I have short blonde hair. WTF! —#hairnet

To the loser that's been banging on the same three cords since I moved here and mumbling low enough so no one can hear you moving your lips: You call yourself a musician...Really! Here’s a New Year’s resolution for you—go learn how to play ONE f@#king son. You’re worse than a poser. If you can't do that maybe try playing the skin flute, I'm sure you'd go pro. —Pick any song

I am at the point where I never want to see a library again. Nope. In the distant past, my sis took books out on my account and I was charged over a $100. Ok it was paid off and I thought that was the end of it. Oh no it had only begun. It got worse. I was fined for a book that I lost in the back of my Mom's car but I found and returned it. But since then, quite wrongly, the library has continued to ding me for books I have returned- ON TIME. They did it to me a few times and I was forced to pay. Now we have a new fancy library that is just a pretty space- while people starve on the streets. Where is funding for that? I got a book through interlibrary loan for my research as i am a writer and I returned the book before the due date at the new library. Upon reviewing my library account online, I noticed I had an $8.00 fine. Wait-what? I returned the book. The library staff must be getting sloppy or just figuring it is easier to ding an innocent patron for a book than to go through the effort of checking to see if the book is actually in the library. They keep doing this to me though I always have books in on time. i am sure that is the thinking. I have no problem with having books in on time. But I have an issue with being fined for books I always bring in on time - and in good condition. I get dinged for that too. Well i am a devout book lover and book addict. I never ever damage a book. But do i get dinged for it? yes. And now I am fined money for a book that was retuned. I will now spend my time, my energy- and my money elsewhere. I started a Facebook page on Facebook titled Book Addicts Anonymous. I am such a book lover so I should be a person who would be responsible with them right?? Wish I could convince the evil library staff of that fact. —Heddy Johannesen

Ok, serious bitch here. In 2015, most of us get to enjoy a feb16 stat holiday, something that 6 other provinces are already doing. But guess what? This is not a federal statutory holiday, it is a valid holiday in our NS labour code, so most of us get the time off or the holiday pay and then some. Did you know that federally regulated companies like banks, airlines, and railways don't have to abide by ns labour code, so therefore they don't have to observer the holiday. My wife is clerical for one such company and she is getting shafted....because they can. I can see why they might not want to pay out provincial holidays to pilots, and maintenance staff that fly all over canada. But my wife is different. She doesn't get paid well. She lives and works in NS. Her job has never required her to set a foot outside this province. The thought that she will be denied a manditory holiday for provincially regulated business is a slap in the face. —pissed off
