Patrick: It's evidently distinctive enough to have warranted an article on Torontoist. That must count for something, strategy-wise....
x_the_x: Of course, to respond to the majority of your comment would just reinforce your impressions of me, but I must take serious issue with your assertion that my semicolon was used incorrectly....
wongoz: That's almost certainly my mistake. Upon reading your comment, I went back and looked at the photo's Flickr page to discover that it was uploaded over three years ago. So while the statement...
It's a ban on the signs as third-party advertising devices. A mobile sign can still be used if it's "in front of the business that the sign is advertising," but there are restrictions [PDF] and you n...
In answer to your question, rek, I chose to leave "penis" as it was because it's the most acceptable, commonly understood, scientific, and specific word for the thing which it signifies; it's simply t...
"Great Racks" — that's more crude and sexist than is my style "A Rack, No Phobia" — good, but still a bit of a stretch; plus, I already have a signature pun on "arachnophobia" "Constitution Of A R...

Marc: Here's what the City said in its original decision letter to me: "Section 10(1) has been relied upon to deny access to a record that contains commercial, financial, and technical information, ...
It should be noted, however, that the OneStop screens (according to Steve Munro) did not at all inform riders of the impending strike on Friday night. How surprising....
If you don't already know the song, I highly recommend downloading "TTC Skidaddler" by Stompin' Tom Connors. It is the best piece of music one can be listening to at this moment....
Meredi: The TTC's front page is much more blunt....
Bring on the red bar!...
"Sometimes the historic signage anchors the building in its era." That's actually kinda the point I was trying to get at. Now that it's been ten years, it's passed from being something to be Fixed t...
I wonder how long it took them to come to an agreement on the pizza toppings....
Spacing got some phenomenal quotes from Howard Moscoe, and they also found out from a City spokesperson that the Clerk's Office has no intention of reviewing the way it interprets the law in the wake ...
