So I get off work the other day at midnight or 1AM and since I have a case of the sniffles I decide to go to the grocery store for some cold medicine. It's locked up. This is because it is apparently against the law in Nova Scotia to buy over the counter cold medicine (syrup, pills etc) without a pharmacist on duty.

So let me get this straight, when there's a pharmacist on duty, I can walk up to the shelf, take the medicine, pay for it at the checkout without interacting with the pharmacist at all, but he legally has to be there? This stinks of big government BS. I was albe to buy these same pills at a gas station in Quebec. Non prescription drugs are on the shelf anyway and I can freely take as many as I want without saying one word to the pharmacist. I should be able to do the same if there is not one present. Someone please tell me why it should matter if there is a pharmacist present or not for me to buy cold meds. —Too many rules

To the man who stopped his car on herring cove road, rang my doorbell, and told me my lights were on - thank you. I had to go pick a friend up from a music lesson about a half hour later and my battery would have been dead for sure! He has a stand up bass and that would've been terrible for him. I meant it when I said that was nicest thing a stranger has ever done for me. Good karma is all over the place for you! Halifax needs more of this. —Thomcat

Sharing a classroom with you is becoming increasingly difficult...your pseudo-artsy-organic wannabe persona, and idiotic questions are ruining the whole learning experience for many of us. Sure, your whiny private-members club trio endorse your criticism of teachers, curriculum and fellow students, but to the others you are way out of line. Thank God this two year program is over in July! Until then STFU! At least for one day...please! PS. Stay in your seat, walking to the front to attempt to humiliate the teacher makes you look like a loser. PPS. The days when you are absent are so very peaceful and enjoyable. Take a few more days off please. —Future RMT

Seriously? I am surprised the Coast would even print such a completely moronic "bitch".

"Creepy and need squashing." I am pretty sure that's what needs to happen to the creepy parasitic human race. I don't think it's ladybugs and cockroaches destroying the planet, killing other species/themselves for no reason, or oozing polluted over populated sludge all over the Earth.

Wake up and try focusing on common sense and critical thinking.

ps: cockroaches clean themselves after human contact.

You and your wife- driving to the end of the Circ. Hwy; slowing down, speeding up, slowing down, speeding up. I pass you in a civilized manner, to which you abruptly pull out from behind me, gun it, and get in front of me. I laughed, though, because I had seen the cops at the end and knew you hadn't. I just counted the seconds until you hit the breaks. Lol.

But was that it? Of course not! You thought you had me fooled by pulling into Shearhellwater and running the loop. I'm no fool, old man. You think I didn't recognize you? And I don't let things go, either. Tell my dear friends I hope they are enjoying their pretty bikes. And let the princess know I'm just biding my time. I never forget. —fromonecocksuckertoanother

why are most people with alot of money and/or power so creepy? i don't know, it is usually nothing super obvious or even blatant. it is usually something in their face. a smirk, a stare. i am a renovation carpenter and have worked on a lot of expensive homes and have the 'fortune' to speak to a lot of lawyers, politicians, judges, and large business owners. with few exceptions, i have always walked away sick to my stomach and a little more depressed about humanity. —nobody important

I go to a certain local restaurant on a weekly bases. I usually order the same thing time after time which comes to $12.85. I give $20.00 and expect to get my full change back and then give a tip. But my waitress never seems to give me to correct change. I know that it is petty and minimum wage earners deserve tips. But I always dilemma of do I tip or not when it seems she automatically takes the money anyway. The first time I thought it was an accident but it has happened more than once. It makes me not want to that diner any more. —rattale60

I'm not celebrating International Women's Day, simply because in an equitable society, we should not need a day to call our own. By talking about women as less than equal, we are in some ways, treating ourselves as less than equal and therefore reinforcing the societal view that women are less than equal through the discourse itself.

A lot of the language used in the posts just reinforces hegemonic masculinity: "RAH RAH OPPRESSED WOMEN"..."STILL STRUGGLING TO HAVE MY VOICE HEARD IN A MAN'S WORLD".

Furthermore, what about people whose gender identity does not fall into one of the two socially ascribed categories?

International Gender Equality Day. This would make a lot more sense. —Not feminist/Not anti-feminist
