I was recently out with a friend, and in the background of the one store we were in, I heard a song I hadn’t heard before. After a few moments I asked the person with me: “Do you know who this is?” She replied: “Yes,” and then looked at me in the condescending manner women are so good at; guys … [Read more...]
Hurt begins somewhere
In respect to the recently passed Halloween, the day Jesus dressed up his Apostles as vampires and said: “This is my blood, drink it...” I wanted to continue talking about the scariest people I know, U.S. customs agents. (I was joking about Jesus dressing up his Apostles as vampires... hopefully … [Read more...]
The Headless Soldier… losing your head over a woman
I was recently on a ghost tour in Niagara-on-the-Lake (I highly recommend this tour), and one story in particular stood out for me; the story of the headless soldier from Fort Niagara on the American side.

That’s a horrible feeling: “Where’s the urinal? Oh no, not again.” My favourite thing about using a reverse fountain is it makes me … [Read more...]
Bring your own jacket
It has long been held that a gentleman gives his jacket to his date when she’s cold, but this is not being a gentleman; not at all.

A Hat is Not a Tuque
I have a request for the so-called men out there who do this – I’m aware that these are the men least likely to read this article... they’re also the least likely to be able to read... but guys, pleasssse, stop wearing your baseball hat like a tuque... because, well, it’s not a tuque; it’s a hat. … [Read more...]
