  1. Hilarious. Threats? Show me the ‘threats’ and that you made a complaint to police or shut up and just f**k off.
    Me thinks ‘threats’ means people mocked you mercilessly.

    1. That’s exactly what it’s about. CBC does the same thing. It routinely prevents any commentary on any Ceeb articles or Youtube videos. Government bureaucrats hate being mocked. This is not about threats; it’s about hiding from the public which despises their scribblings.

  2. Shrug. So. A pathetic attempt to generate a bit of interest in an an article that 99.9 percent of the population had assigned to the IDGAS file.

  3. Get in relentless touch with your inner mockingbird and don’t stop.
    Mock Bomb them on every front.
    CAW CAW Baby…
    Yeah, that is a crow’s way to mock.

  4. in grade 9 french class l learned elle francais for she.
    when did that change?
    p.s. in grade 12 l was complemented by a quebeqois newbie (Anique Dionne)
    for my pronunciation of her 1st language.
    the guy from kaybeck however, figured he would ‘show me up’ and rapped off full tilt to embarrass me. delivered with a smirk.
    the teacher, also a francophone mlle gilles let him.
    l turned my back on the language and culture right there
    that was 1968

    1. TW, I experienced something similar albeit different back in the late 70’s when I gave my future father-in-law a bottle of Seagrams VO rye for Christmas and my girlfriend’s brother gave him a bottle of Crown Royal. My brother in-law kept pointing out his gift was “better”. I thought it was very petty because I was making something like $2.25/hr and he was working for the city making double that it was no contest who could afford the more expensive bottle.

      1. I am from North Ontario, near Temiskaming, la. And we all know dat the crown royal is better than the VO, est ti tabernac, la.
        Daccord, femme ta bouche et hammer dat whiskey, la.

        1. on that topic allow me to add l celebrate my 1/4 irish by quaffing a Jamesons (or as much as l can before blacking out) every st pat’s. no guzzling that stuff; that ensures the cultural experience stays ahead of any chance of breathing vomit etc.
          well, at least its worked so far.
          none of my irsih family has managed to drink themselves to death.

          to yawhat, ya someone was mean to me and l reserve the right *one time* to walk away after just one time. otoh it took me decades to do my part to walk away from a friendship when the 50th time mr ocd demanded to ‘help’ by pointing out my MISTAKE!!!!!!! and ‘explkain’ what l needed to do.
          him not even GED me TWO bachelors degrees.
          uh, gee, no Bill l DO NOT want to hear you pontificate and point out my, gasp!!! MISTAKE MISTAKE MISTAKE.
          the guy has ocd l knew whet l was up against but l refused to listen to his play by play, he stormed off all butt hurt.
          l do have staying power and a seriously immovable ultimate limit. and agreed with his decision to severe communications.

          1. If you feel the need to walk away if someone is mean to you, you should trade in your testicles for a pair of ovaries and call it a day.

  5. I’ve never seen anyone actually buy one of those supermarket checkout magazines.
    I wonder if their chief market is doctor’s and dentist’s waiting rooms.
    Also, why don’t the ever have anything in waiting rooms that men would actually read, like car or gun magazines?

    1. Several of dentists I used to go to had outdoor magazines on their table selection, but if you wanted shooting or car mags, you had to go to the barber.

      All of those are retired now, and there is a surprising number of female barbers now.
