The mayor of Toronto just admitted that he smokes crack

What I know about Ford's politics I like, but you can't have an alcoholic drug addict running a city. That's ridiculous.

Eh, if municipal government there is anything like it is here, he's not really running it. He's just the puppet the consultants and wealthy contributors put in front of the camera while they raid the school boards, public employee pensions, and city budget.
 
I was so disgusted. And amazed by his bleating supporters. "He's a nice guy!", "It's a conspiracy against Rob Ford!", "He's saving us a lot of money!" I have a theory that there was some sort of singularity where alternate realities collided - - a few thousand people from the universe where Ford is a sober, hardworking, fiscally-responsible and respected leader ended up here and have been meandering at large, half mad and confused, chanting this shit.

Whenever I take a cab I ask the driver what he thinks of Ford's latest shenanigans and to a man they've all come out in support of him, (except for the cabbie yesterday, who furthermore wished more people would take public transit or bike to work in order to clear some of the downtown traffic and said he hates driving for a living, but does what he needs to do to make a living.)

I can't believe the bullshit this cavalier fuck is putting my city through.

Also fuck chilly, and fuck squibbs.

At City Hall yesterday:

The fuck I do now?
 
That man was born to be memed. That big eyes photo is so versatile. The exploitables of him kicking a football a few years ago were also just hilarious.

I want to echo eve's points from before to keep this thread in perspective. While his behavior is ridiculous to the point of being comical, he's a monstrous person and a terrible politician who's deeply and negatively affected the lives of many people who live here and his choices and policies have actively hurt the city over and over and over again. It's not funny. He is a dangerous person and he needs to get the hell out of city hall.

You mean you agree with the policies of an unhinged, Tea Party-esque maniac? I am shocked. SHOCKED. This is so unlike you.

I like "Never trust a guy in a football tie".
 
Sorry Laurelle, did you say something? I couldn't hear you, because I have a hard time listening to haters.

WIN

Sorry, Toronto. Your guy has to die with TWO hookers to achieve that level of amazingness.

:mad:
 
I am thinking of writing an opera about this debacle. I have always wanted to write an opera, and this seems as good a subject as any. Quite dramatic.

Oh god, or a ballet. Please do a ballet.

(Also I'll only support it if you promise to write it while in a drunken stupor.)
 
You and chilly both; always saying mean things about Toronto.

Toronto is great if you love crime and gangs.

I think this was my first poke at toronto, so the always saying mean things is wrong.

Besides, I hate every large city, so don't feel special.
 
I just learned something cool about Toronto:

"Patrons have long been able to borrow a cookbook from the library. In some places, they can even borrow a cake pan to go with it. But what if that cookbook calls for a pasta maker, food dehydrator, yogurt maker, or other specialized kitchen equipment they don’t already possess? Now, if they’re in in Toronto, they’re in luck, since the city is home to The Kitchen Library, a new non-profit kitchen tool lending library. For a $50 (Canadian) annual fee, members can borrow space-taking and often expensive kitchen appliances for three to five days."

Go Canada
 
This thread needs some song lyrics

I give you Hash Pipe - Weezer

Oh, come on and kick me.
Oh, come on and kick me.
(Oh.) Come on and kick me.
(Oh.) You've got your problems;
(Oh.) I've got my ass wide.
(Oh.) You've got your big G's;
I've got my hash pipe.

I'm thinking Thenardier...

Master of the house, doling out the charm
Ready with a handshake and an open palm
Tells a saucy tale, makes a little stir
Customers appreciate a bon-viveur
Glad to do a friend a favor
Doesn't cost me to be nice
But nothing gets you nothing
Everything has got a little price!
 
YES! Art imitates life. Do you know he did a bit part in the Nutcracker one year? Rob Ford has performed with the National Ballet of Canada. Because of course he has.

I thought that was an urban legend!

Country people :rolleyes:
 
Mayor Ford showed that not all Canadians are social democrat nutjob lunatics, not even in the greatest Canadian urban cesspool of all. Can you imagine an actual political conservative ever being elected in any of America's largest cities? Yet, in Canada, in the heart of loony liberal darkness on all of planet Earth, one was elected in its biggest city. That's an amazing accomplishment for Mayor Ford and a testimony to the rational majority who must still live there. The childish tantrums, mockery, and name-calling from the spoiled liberal children only proves the power of his political ideas strikes terror into their hearts.

The fact that he has personal failings is unfortunate, and if my opinion matters I certainly think he should resign, but that doesn't change the fact his policies appear to still be quite popular. Personal failings don't indicate a failure of ideas.
 
The funny thing is, I used to hear stories from female friends who worked in lounges and bars where they've seen from afar, to even walking in on Ford doing lines. I thought it seemed a little far fetched but now I believe every word.

One involved one of his entourage trying to get the poor girl fired after seeing what he did, lol. What a dick
