I think the OCAD building looks fine, but it functions HORRIBLY. Have you been inside? It's only five storeys I think (a reasonably physical stair climb) but the only stairs to get there are unventil...

Shouldn't a topical news/comedy program have more new episodes than repeats in a year? I can't remember the last time I saw a new episode of either the Mercer Report or This Hour Has 22 Minutes (which...

I'm sure a starbucks would do great business on Pedestrian Sundays. Head to the Blue Banana for some clean, unsmelly boho goods, then over to starbucks for a coffee to walk around with while you watch...

dead fish, big deal, up here in Canada we've got to deal with two-mouthed fish. Easier to catch, sure, but I wouldn't want to swim with one! http://www.boingboing.net/2005/12/21/fish-with-two-mouths.h...

On August 23, 2008 7:32 AM in You know all that cut arts funding?, they said:

we all know both sides have bee waiting for a war between the art kids and the jocks for a long time. Harper's just giving it a nudge in the right direction....

Wouldn't it be cool if FilmPort went completely unused by big blockbuster American productions, thus becoming a big huge studio for use by Canadian filmmakers? 'cause I bet there are Canadians who do...

What a waste of paper/vinyl/cardboard/labour/etc. Buzz campaigns like this are a huge waste of resources....

On August 7, 2008 1:09 PM in Er..., they said:

I think these kinds of ads are worth talking about, just not in the capacity we have been talking about them. How many hundreds or thousands of billboards, subways ads and vinyl banners have been pri...

On August 2, 2008 10:31 PM in Film Friday: Pineapple Depress, they said:

Maybe I'll start reviewing movie reviews. Because to me a movie only inspires rage when it fails to deliver what it promises. I don't recall anybody suggesting that Pinapple Express would be anything ...

Sony, it was actually a straight bookstore that happens to sell a lot of books with homosexual themes. And their muffins are amazing....

On May 11, 2008 12:33 PM in Let's Get Digital, Digital, they said:

Newspaper Box and other projects are neat but the execution of all of them seems really sloppy. The drumming in particular looks like an over-zealous peddle pusher could easily destroy the thing. T...

let's not forget she gave up her toe to convince The Dude that Bunny Lebowski had really been kidnapped and that "her life is in your hands"....

On April 26, 2008 5:27 PM in Historicist: Palmerston Boulevard, they said:

Urban Sprawl today is at the scale of the automobile, but back then it was at the scale of a walking human, or maybe a streetcar line, which is why the area is still lived in, desired and celebrated....
