def: when you make an appointment with a tattooist, they ditch it , and then keep your deposit. —Owner of a soul, missing half a day's wages

In lieu of a rate increase the company I work for opted, this year, to give me a bonus. I thought that was great. I've been there ten years and am at the top of my pay-scale. I work hard and go above and beyond my job description on a daily basis. Today I got said bonus. It was attached to the rest of my paycheque. The government got about 500 extra dollars, while my pay was only an extra 250 or so. That is my bonus for the entire year. 250 bucks. So congratulations on all the hard work, government. You earned it! Can't wait to pay you some more next march! And to the company I work for, let's call them Lots of Drugs, maybe you should consider cutting a cheque to employees when giving them a "bonus" so they actually see some of that money you so generously dispense when we receive a positive performance evaluation. Or really why bother at all? —So glad I am finally going back to school

dear human's, please take the time to shut the fuck once in awhile. nothing u say is important. trust me, i've been around awhile. —a tree... yes, tree's can write too

I'm being cyber attacked on a daily basis. Thanks everyone. A word of advice, don't force your morals and values on someone if your morals and values are worse than theirs. —The guy you saw

To all of the people who travel the floors of the Scotia Square Food Court, I can't help but become overwhelmingly surprised each day of work in this building. How is it that you're in such a BIG hurry to get to your McDonald's line that you have no problem cutting off a construction worker carrying a 6', 8', 10' or even a 12' ladder??? Where is the common sense? How can more than 80 percent of the people that pass through this mall NOT have any common courtesy? To those who actually still have manners, THANK YOU! To the rest, think twice before you judge my generation for our actions!! —Fed up construction worker

This is a message to everyone who is upset, angry and annoyed about things that do not directly affect them; Homophobic, trans-phobics, Kink-phobics, Xenophobes. Yes I mean you people. How does it affect your marriage if two women you don't know get married? Religious Rhetoric you say, yet you wouldn't stone someone for not being a virgin on their wedding? No.

Why do you care is people want to wear leather and get their ass's spanked behind closed doors (hopefully of their sexy dungeon)? Or have their nipples pinched? Be a dog or a horse? When people are home doing what they want between two consenting adults...why do you care?

You will still be going to work, doing your own thing and having your vanilla hetero sex. Living your life the way you want to be without worry.

It doesn't directly affect you. When two men fuck; you will still watch tv, eat on the couch or what ever the fuck it is that you do.

It's like going to sub shop and because the person in front of you didn't order the same thing as you; you can't enjoy your sub.

If people living happy healthy lives keeps you up at night and makes you feel hatred. Maybe...just maybe you need to ask yourself why? If your answer is religion then you need to start living all of it; no more picking and choosing. But also you need to ask why religion gives you license to push your beliefs on everyone? If religion is not the answer maybe you should talk to someone, a friend, priest, a psychologist, doctor... to figure out why you hate. Because when it comes down to it... it sounds like you are just jealous of other peoples happiness. —Fr. Acceptance

It's me. I'm the one who keeps farting during yoga. —I'm sorry!

Ok, I'm done. After braving the city traffic on my bike for 7 years, I am packing it in. The reason? The air-head bimbo who pulled alongside me waiting at a red light, leaving about 5" between her car and my bare leg, so close I could feel the heat from her red Honda Civic engine. I don't want my last conscious pain-numbed view in this life to be of that stupid kitten sticker on your stupid bumper. What kind of an adult has a sticker of a kitten with a bow? I guess someone with the driving skills, maturity and intelligence of a 12 year old, or a brain-dead dummy, whose zoned-out driving turns her vehicle into a deadly weapon. Good thing I got your license plate number and, hey cool, will ya' look at that, the RCMP station was right around the corner. I hope your fine was as least as much as those fancy shades you were sporting. There are too many of you self-centered simpletons out there, whipping by me on Brunswick and Gottingen and Sackville every morning. Takin' the bus from now on. —The woman you ignored

To the middle aged man who was walking his small dog, and carrying a purple ball-thrower in Africville dog park on Tuesday evening. Thanks for just watching as my girlfriend was attacked by the chained dog near the exit by the museum. You listened to her calls for help, as that dog was snarling and scratching, trying to get at her face. Did it look like it was just being friendly? But you just ignored her, and kept on walking. Thankfully she's tough, and resourceful, and a fighter, and she got away. No thanks to you sir. ‚—Dumbfounded but Relieved.

Our relationship ended in 2011. Why am I still occasionally finding random condoms that you stashed away in different parts of my bedroom closet? They're not drugs or stolen bank money leaving them in the box, or in one spot should have been fine. —Found one today!
