Reading this piece of shit article makes me wonder if it contributes to the lack of morale and discipline, much-needed attention and simple fucking valuable time-spending-together, no-slaving-for-a-fucking-day-to-just-live-life for our children problem the entire mud-slinging globe is facing.

My first question when going through this funny article is "how in the fucking hell did they come up with 2 billion dollars as a stat number?".
And of course, my reaction was laughing.

It seems to me that fucking news corporations just through out numbers, a big fuckers too, out there like their much-needed braincells, in nonchalant fashion.

We're talking about one day off for THREE provinces.  Granted, Ontario is the most economical province in the country, but followed closely by Québec, in which doesn't have the famous "Family Day" holiday.
And, as mentioned below, not everybody in the selected provinces really have the day off, commercially.  So where did they get that fucking ridiculous billion dollar number? lol

Another stupid and funny section is when the ministry mentions shit like "we feel the holidays rejuvenates" people when they get back to work, that "they are more productive", etc ect...  They clearly don't even give a fuck WHAT the holiday is for.
To me, Family Day should be repetitive and widely announced and reminded.  The more time goes forward, the less families have values and spend time together to instill those values and so much required lessons that have slipped away over time.  Today's families are scattered, divided, divorced, fucked up more so probably primarily because both parents work too fucking much!  We work to survive, yet we either forget to live or don't have enough time/energy to live, much less to live with those we bring in to this cursed money-hungry world.

One thing's fucking guaranteed in my case - fuck work, it will never be worth being a slave while being away from my family and certainly never be worth the price either - I'd rather be homeless with them than rich and alone without them.

Think about it, we spend at least 66% of our LIVES at work...  and what do most of us have to show for it? fucking debts, most of which are left to the kids when finally croaking away from this wretched period of time we're caught in.
I'd have much prefer catching the plague or being stabbed through by the swords of the Four Horsemen up the armour's poop-shoot in the dark ages than be caught in this horrible money-racing-hell-bent-at-all-cost-to-make-a-dollar era.

And besides, wouldn't you rather be happier looking in your son/daughter's eyes beaming with admiration for the mere simplest action than being scrutinized by your boss for slave wages and only ending up having him/her take all the fucking credit and butt fucking bonus for what you did?

 

Family Day costs small businesses, says group

It's Family Day in Ontario, Saskatchewan and Alberta today, which means a day at home for most. But plenty of others can't take the day off and that's hard on small businesses, some critics say.

And what if that were true?  What would stop someone from saying "this fucking colt 45 is a part of my religion, you can't take it away from me, I'm allowed to carry it on me at all times" ect ect.   What the fuck is next?

I'm all for diversity, equal rights and all that bullshit, but sweet tap dancing christ, where's the limit? 
Religion is the basis of all wars, the enforcer of them just as much. 
And if all I had to do was deny I used my weapon and walk away freely, who'll be the next Manson and shit to walk the streets, be in school or eat at the table next to you in a restaurant?

Just 2 years ago in Montréal, some fucking lunatic went on a rampage at Dawsom college with guns, what prevents others to reach the same mental destination, but mostly fully equipped to contribute invariable and ever-conclusive consequences? 

Read this shit and think about it - if other "weapons" would be a part of any religion and how safe you would feel next to someone who carries them.

Teen charged in kirpan assault denies using dagger as weapon

lol I can't stop laughing at this and every other time I've read similar news.

Why is it that fucking organizations feel the need to blast the shit out of these idiot "stars" ?
They're nothing but mere puppets anyway! 

I just read that Miley Cyrus (and I don't even fucking know all that much about her to begin with, much less interested, only the fact that she's "popular" and will probably pop her cherry on camera like the others that have done in line) apologized for an "inappropriate" picture circulating the internet apparently bashing the hell out of asian - hell, they make it sound like Pearl Habour was inexistent lol

Look at this shit and tell me if it's offensive...  then, 5 minutes later, pretend some unknown fuckwit bastard does this with a bunch of his/her even more unknown fuckwit gang of fuckwits and try to imagine a supposed asian organization getting pissed off to this publically ridiculing point.

I surmise she's the one in the middle, about to get her fluff tuffed by that super retarded buckwheat she's sitting on.
But I digress.   Naturally, the asian organization would feel pretty god damn stupid letting one of their own retarded fuck just sit there, much less associate with, amongst such a group - but hey, he's pulling a "represent, yo" shout out for all asians who'd probably want to pecker-up a chick at any cost.

Besides, we've all imitated someone of another race, how many of us had to publically apologize for it and get that apology refused by some fucking racial organization?  Bunch of fucking grudge-holding pole smokers, it's not as if they were fucking spray-painting Nazi signs and beating the shit out of other ethnicities while miss anus-Cyrus was singing or acting out or whatever the fuck she does racial shit.

They're kids, they're stupid and they'll grow up (most likely stupid, but we can pray they'll be a tad less stupid) - fuck off OCA, go eat a bag of rice or some General Tao and do something useful instead like bashing a high school for not having elected an asian as president of the math club.

Here's a sample of the story.

Sorry Excuse

 

by Ryan Porter
Miley Cyrus's "goofy face" line might have worked on the four-year-olds, but it's not gonna work on the Organization of Chinese Americans.

Last week, Miley Cyrus taught us an invaluable lesson about racial sensitivity: if you do something people consider offensive, blame their imaginations. Then name drop Britney. Then change into the Hannah Montana wig and tell the world that Miley has died in a freak trampolining accident, but her last words were "Hannah... take over my career... ecghhh!" While that may have worked on her fanbase, ages one and under, the Chinese-American advocacy group, the OCA, are not going to let Miley off the hook with an "I'm sorry people made a big deal about me being racially insensitive" apology.

"The picture is offensive and now this statement is inadequate," group spokesperson George Wu tells Celebuzz. "It's not a real apology. We're not backing down without a fuller apology." Miley had her role model status called into question last week when a photo of her and some pals pulling their eyes back into narrow slits alongside an Asian guy leaked onto the internet. She posted a statement to her website that sidestepped the issue and bemoaned her new status as America's Celebrity whipping girl.

Miley does get unfairly criticized, but the OCA is right: her apology was a whole lot of nothing. But Disney probably told her to write it, so let them apologize. They can also apologize for the Siamese cats from Lady and the Tramp while they're at it.

What a croc O' shit.  If this were true and precise, the whole fucking internet population would be zilliakabillionaires and put every business-related industry/sector/whateverthefuckthatconsistsofmoney profit books up higher than fucking Jupiter's red-anus-looking storm hole.

What kind of fuck-up would actually believe this shit?  But hey, if it works, let me know before you cripple the economy with your kajillionfucktrillion dollar revenues...  I wouldn't mind buying a planet of my own to move away from these fuckwads on the internet plagging my fucking email box.

My personal favourite in this entire piece of royal fucking bullshit email is this classic line (that always varies, yet remain the same in each spam email) :

• "I tested it, so I personally guarantee that this program works great!"

Well, if this cocksucker says it works, and what reason do we have to NOT believe and caress that lame-fuck garantee to our breasts like a fucking retarded kangaroo, what has the planet have to lose?!  get on it you fuckers!!!

Cheers, y'all 

Man, I watched some of the skills competition of the NHL all-star game and I couldn't believe how much it sucked...

I remember when I was a kid and feeling such awe and inspiration watching the good old favourites be what they naturally were and, foremost, what they should be especially on the all-star occasion - the very best they can be.

This all-star's game had a pair of donkey balls dangling from its hockey stick and the players were licking them dry!
The breakaway competition?  What competition?  Ovechkin puts on a stupid fucking hat (minus the flag on top) and fucking gay sunglasses resulting in an appearance that would make even the gay parade participants vomit to the brink of death...  Players falling on their stomachs (probably denting their gold chains they can afford like pixie sticks) and hand-passing the fucking puck to their sticks to score? 

WTF is that bullshit?!

I totally fucking agree with this piece of blog I came across that comments on the all-star game too :

by Jeff Mackie

This was actually Ovechkin's back-up shoot-out move if the hat and glasses failed.

The NHL All-Star game still sucks

26/01/2009 2:40:00 PM

I'm not sure what a woman playing a violin, while suspended upside down in mid-air, has to do with the sport of hockey.

Then again, the game that followed the Cirque du Soleil performance bore little resemblance to the sport we know and love.

The NHL's 57^th All-Star Game was exactly what we've come to expect: the players went through the motions, they didn't play defence and acted as though body contact was some sort of mortal sin.

What a joke. Again.

The All-Star game is still a farce, yet Sunday's exhibition was the most exciting mid-season shinny contest in years. The participants actually displayed a hint of passion during overtime and the shootout. For a few minutes, anyway, their competitive juices – and sense of pride – kicked in. But the first 60 minutes of hockey was an abysmal attempt to showcase the game and its best players.

I'll take my cynic's hat off for a moment and acknowledge that this year's All-Star weekend was something special. You didn't have to be in Montreal to appreciate just how much the event meant to the city, and just how important the Canadiens are to the province of Quebec. I never get tired of seeing legends such as Jean Beliveau, Dickie Moore and Guy Lafleur paraded out to the cheering masses. The Habs honour their history as well as any franchise in professional sports. Once again, they did a magnificent job in linking the past to the present.

It's just too bad the NHL couldn't have done its part and put a better product on the ice for the fans in Montreal and the ones who watched it on television. I'm not sure what was more embarrassing for the league: the game itself, the skills competition, or the dreadful exhibition that was the YoungStars game.

My vote goes to the YoungStars game.

What was the point of flying rookies and sophomores to Montreal to play a "mini-game" with six-minute periods of straight time? The contest had about as much intensity as a yoga class in a seniors' home. While I'm sure the players were thrilled to be there, they competed as though they'd rather be lying on a tropical beach, sipping fruity beverages, trying to convince innocent young women, that yes, they are in fact professional hockey players.

The skills competition, meanwhile, reached a brand new low this year. The free-style shootout – or whatever they call it – was an even bigger disaster than last year. Did I see a player fall on his backside in an attempt to score or was that just a bad dream?

The participants looked embarrassed to be involved. Moreover, they were completely unprepared for the event and displayed an appalling lack of creativity. In the end, Alex Ovechkin stole the show, wearing a silly hat and goofy sunglasses in an apparent tribute to Elton John.

Come to think of it, Elton John would have made a nice addition to the weekend. At least then there would have been a few hits.

Jeff Mackie has covered the NHL for thehockeynews.com, and covered the OHL and AHL for Canadian Press.

This one makes me wonder if it would really work...

Montreal may ban insults to police

Montreal is considering a new bylaw that would make it illegal to insult police officers on the job.
The proposed public order bylaw is under discussion between the city and Montreal police, and could become a reality later this year.

I ran across this little funny bit of news after logging out of hotmail today and thought I'd share it.

However they track it is beyond me - faking an internet identity is not that hard and spammers and crackers do it in abundance to elude whatever they need to elude - and China probably contributes to a good 66% (as usual) of this so-called internet population, but WTF... here it is :

Internet breaking down borders with more than one billion users

23/01/2009 5:39:00 PM

"A key driver to that growth has been its ability to break down cultural barriers and cross over country borders," said Jamie Gavin, senior marketing and communications analyst at U.K.-based comScore.

"I think one of the Internet's great strengths is that it kind of unites people in that way," Gavin said from London Friday.

ComScore found that more than a billion people aged 15 and older used the Internet from home and work computers around the world in December.

Google, Microsoft and Yahoo Internet sites were the top three visited by the more than one billion users last December.

The Asia-Pacific region accounted for the highest share of global Internet users at 41 per cent, followed by Europe at 28 per cent and North America at 18 per cent.

"I think that just truly shows what a global medium it is," he said.

"Now it's not only representative of how the small the world is getting, it's actually driving that change itself. So obviously it's quite a big day for the medium."

Chinese users accounted for almost 18 per cent, or about 180 million users, of the worldwide Internet audience followed by the United States with 16.2 per cent or about 163 million users. Japan was third with six per cent followed by Germany with 3.7 per cent and the United Kingdom with 3.6 per cent.

But Gavin noted that while China is a populous country that has adapted its economy to technology, there are still censorship issues that its online users face.

Canada was 11th out of 15 countries with a 2.2 per cent share of the total worldwide Internet audience with about 22,000 users reported last December.

The Middle East and Africa lagged with just five per cent of the global Internet audience.

While comScore tracked Internet use via computers, the cellphone also will help increase its use.

Mobile Internet devices such as small laptops, called netbooks, and cellphones that connect easily to the Net combined with social networking and blogging will make a difference, Gavin said.

"I think those two things working in tandem really are going to make it more accessible to people and it's going to involve and engage people a lot more. From the growth we've seen, you just expect that momentum to get quicker and quicker, really."

Internet-connected cellphones in the Asia-Pacific region and in the Middle East and Africa is a way around not having mass broadband connections via computers.

"The technology is a lot more affordable and people have got the (cell) phones anyway." Gavin said.

Last year, the United Nations telecoms agency reported that the number of mobile phone users would overtake the number of non-cellphone users for the first time.

Analyst Carmi Levy said the Internet is rapidly becoming a primary means of communication.

He said smartphones that allow web surfing will be key in emerging economies and in those that have low Internet use, not personal computers.

"The PC revolution is strictly a western concept," said Levy, senior vice-president of strategic consulting at Toronto-based AR Communications Inc.

"There are generations of future Internet users who are never going to know a desktop (computer). They are going to shrug their shoulders and pull out their smartphones and go back to work."

Levy said even though more than one billion people have used the Internet, there is still a large chunk of the world's population that doesn't have any access to learning and knowledge via the Internet.

Gavin said the Internet with its "massive, endless, infinite pool of knowledge so imminent" is always going to give people more opportunities to learn, but he added it could also be argued that some people will learn less and retain less through using it as an easy way to fill in information.
