Have I Mentioned How Much I Love Sarah Silverman? Because I Totally Do. Love Sarah Silverman, I Mean.

After witnessing dozens of people wiping handkerchiefs, staggeringly cheesy dimestore trinkets and, I do believe, their panties on The Stone of Unction in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem, I can’t help but totally love the latest from the Hebrew Badgirl:

Video: Sarah Silverman, “Sell the Vatican, Feed the World”

Three for Five (September)

5 September 2009.

My brother and sister-in-law are in town from San Francisco. Took them to Gorilla Food for raw, vegan eats. I know, right? But the smoothies rocked. Later, we went to the VPL:

Sibling Ribaldry: Champ and Me with Sis-in-Law and Bro

…where we saw… a wedding photo? Okayyy.

Goin’ to the Libr’y and We’re… [...]

Sparky

I celebrate my father’s 81st, albeit remotely. Love you, Dad.

What the Fuck, Tim Hortons?

Full disclosure: I can’t stand Tim Hortons and their long line-ups for mediocre coffee and, worse, the smug, anti-elite posturing of their loyal customers. That said…

It’s bad enough that bigoted hags like Maggie Gallagher, who heads up the odious National Organization for Marriage, can get any sponsors for their events, but when one of them [...]

So We Did Do The Pride Thing in Vancouver, After All

There really wasn’t much discussion about it.

Though Champ and I never really did The Pride Thing in Toronto — at least, not together, and not for the past few years — we didn’t need to really discuss whether (or not) we were going to take in Vancouver’s festivities . We just knew, y’know? I mean, [...]

Centred

Well, the floor’s been replaced, as you can see below, and we’re still waiting for all our stuff, also as you can see below. Friday, fingers crossed. At work I’m in the busiest testing cycle I can recall and once that’s done, I can script in C# to my heart’s content while the boss is [...]

California Über Alles

Iowa > California, for real.

At one time I wanted to live in Los Angeles (and tried very hard to do just that). At another time I wanted to live in San Francisco (and tried very, very hard to do that, too).

Now I’m hard-pressed to think about even visiting California. Boycott? You’d better fucking believe it.

Hugs [...]

The First Rule of Fruit Club is “You MUST Talk About Fruit Club”

So, hey, it’s International Day Against Homophobia 2009 today. IDAH’09!

I want to tell you a story about a teenager in Calgary, Alberta. A normal kid, smarter than most, bookish but enthusiastically into politics and culture in all its forms. Like most teenaged young men, he had a healthy (read: voracious) sexual appetite. He had an [...]

“Thank You, Mom”

This is the entrance to the Bay at Yonge and Bloor Streets in downtown Toronto. It’s also the entrance to the most-visited subway stop covering the two most-traveled transit lines in the city. This is how we roll in Toronto:

It would be funny if it wasn’t so fucking shabby and inept and [...]

Mommy’s Boy

I was named by my Mom after her dad and mine. At least, that’s where I got my middle name. My first name was devised from the following formula:

had to be uncommon + had to be monosyllabic (so as to never be used in the diminutive form)

and she pretty-much succeeded on both counts, [...]

Anti-Condom Clowns

There are (at least) two sides to every story — one of which was yesterday’s Condom Fairy ad — even though other side(s) to The Pregnancy/STD-Avoidance Story are often knowingly false (or criminally delusional). And President Obama’s recent slashing of abstinence-only funding has sent shockwaves through the ranks of those who’d rather lie to children [...]

See C-61, See?

Bill C-61 is an absurd new law, touted as “made in Canada” but crafted by greedy American corporations and brought to the table by Canadian legislator — uninformed fools who, for want of a better expression, don’t know shit about fuck (that would be Stephen Harper’s Conservatives).

Michael Geist writes often (and relentlessly) about the absurdity [...]

I’m Gonna Say That A Line Was Crossed With The Dog Food

Of all the… wrongness of this advert — the wanton disregard for the environmental impact of the flushings, the gigglesome image of crapping out a short story consisting of magnetic letters — I hafta say it was with the dog food that a line was crossed — The Line of Hilarious!

You, of course, may [...]

Wit and a Half

I had to giggle at the truncated Getty Images headline:

Maybe some wit (L) rubbed off on the other guy (R).
