For the record, I have never met this girl…

Welcome to New Glasgow, where a news paper article about a local woman winning a reality show turns into a forum for local idiots to misspell words and comment on their hatred of  the Wellness Center?!?

If you’re complaining about Jillian winning Big Brother a week after the fact, it’s not because you’re so concerned about upholding the strong morals and ethics of reality television, it’s because you’re a jealous cunt.  I love the comments about being a bad role model for kids. What kind of parent lets their young child stay up past 11 on school night to watch a show with adult content anyway?? That’s like sitting your kid next to me at a restaurant when I’m hungover and getting mad at me for all my swears.

This is how I view a large majority of Pictou County Residents

You can subdue, but never tame me .

Sometimes I wonder how teenage girls can get so ape shit over The Biebs , but then I look back on my 90′s crushes. I totally would have had trouble breathing at a shopping mall from over crying if I had the chance to see any one of these guys !

South Western inspired vest , giant wagon wheel, golden arch bangs… The Art Director of Bop magazine knew how to get a 13-year-old excited!

Andrew Keegan had the same hair cut  and clothing style as all the girls in my grade six class at Acadia Street. No wonder we loved him so much!

Imagine getting to share a milk shake with our generations Chris Brown, wouldn’t that be a real treat!!!!

I would have loved to be on set while this outfit was  decided on. OK, we’re gonna have Rider put his foot on top of the globe so better get some sweet sandals. I also want to see him in an over sized dress shirt to make his top look bigger, but soccer shorts, so we can show off his pencil legs.

I like the direction they went with on this one. South West meets Romantic. Normally Tiger Beat and Bop had JTT holding a soccer ball in front of a computer ( because that’s what all teenage boys have in their hands when in front of a computer) or posing with his arms crossed leaning against something.  It’s like he’s saying Hey girl, I picked these chrysanthemums just for you.

And now the time I tried to purchase an Administrative Professionals Day card.

I was hoping to beat the rush and get a head start on Administrative Professionals Day by getting a card this morning, that and I also  thought it was today when it’s really tomorrow. Luckily I have an extra day because  I left the Antigonish Superstore empty handed.

Me- Hey, where are the Administrative Professional Day cards.

Lady working, whom might I add has one job…The card aisle-  What?

Me-You know, Admins Day…Secretaries Day??

Lady- I’ve never heard of it.

Me- Well you should have because it’s been around for like fifty years.

Lady- Oh well we only have Nurses cards left for that holiday. ( Points to a giant orange sign that reads Nurses Day)

Me-That’s a totally different holiday.

Lady- No, it’s the same, we just only have nurses cards left. All the others sold out.

Me- OK, do you have just a blank package of Thank You Cards?

Lady- No, they don’t make those anymore. ( REALLY??????)

Me-Forget it, I’m going else where.

This lady probably thinks I’m some sort of Cunt from Hell to work with and that I should be buying a fuck of a lot more than a card for anyone who has to come in-contact with me in the work place. But seriously lady, come on!!!!

For the record, this wasn’t at Debbie’s Tim’s. She is the greatest!

I’m breaking my non blogging streak because I’m finally fired up over something. I’ve worked out every goddamn day for a month, I stopped eating sandwiches and have cut booze out . Today I treated myself to a toasted cocoanut doughnut from Tim’s and you know what those fucking cunts gave me??? Cinnamon fucking sugar! That would be a real treat if I was 90.

How hard is it to give someone their correct order?? I’ve worked in the same position, someone wanted a chocolate dip, I grabbed it and gave it to them.Order complete.  I also knew how to properly toast a fucking bagel when I worked there and I was able to butter it without making the bag see through as well.

You know where this would never happen??  Dunkin‘ Donuts That place is amazing!

RIP Paul Bearer

So yesterday out of boredom I decided to troll on the New Glasgow MR. Barter Facebook Page. In the end, they blocked me from the group which sucks because I actually really liked that page.

So if I owned a record player I could have made a comment?? For the record, I don’t own a record player or a record collection because I’m not a hipster or my Dad.

This one is hard to make out. He is selling Twilight DVD’s so I just said ” How about no”

 

They took our jobs!!!!

So the town of New Glasgow now has a Cougar Armored Vehicle. It’s not a tank, it doesn’t have any sort of gun stuff on the outside or any other tank kind of stuff. It’s causing a stir on the NG News website. I’m not going to get into the comments over the fucking Christmas Parade or how New Glasgow should be giving their money to the Pictou Rink. Those people are fucking morons and I actually feel bad for them. I support the towns decision to own one of these vehicles. Here is what I think about this, it’s just my opinion and maybe I’m totally wrong…

Yes it was a free gift. The town applied for one like almost every other town did. There will be a cost associated with maintenance just like every other town owned piece of equipment in New Glasgow. They already have an Officer on staff with previous experience and training. Will the town have to pay for additional training? Yes.

Will it be parked outside Club D every Friday night? No. What are the odds that it will have to drive through the front window of a bank and defuse a bomb some day? Unlikely given that it can’t do either of those things. The Cougar for the most part will be kept in heated storage and taken out once a week for a drive so it doesn’t seize up from not being used. It will however be used for things like standoff’s, not the kind where someone is in a bank with hostages, the kind that our officers actually get called out to. Like the hostage situation that happened a few months ago in Hopewell.

Do situations like the one mentioned above happen all the time? No. I know I’m biased here given that Count Jackula is on the Town Council and my future Father-in-law  is a Police Officer for the town of New Glasgow , but I like knowing that when he arrives  to a very serious situation he will be protected. Last week two officers in small Quebec town were shot inside their car  when arriving to investigate a domestic disturbance , one of those officers was killed. This is an extreme example and I hope it never happens to anyone again. But why do people feel that protecting Police Officers is a waste of money? If this vehicle was only used once and it  save someones life, it’s well worth it.

I bet that Police Commissioner in the photo from the New Glasgow News has a hilarious daughter who sometimes acts like an asshole but for the most part is a good person and wouldn’t mind going out for Chicken Wings this week.

For the record I will actively look for a job when the time comes…

My summer of EI was starting to look up. I realized one of my best friends will be home would also be collecting pogey at the same time. We had plans to relive our summer of 2003! Then I find out the Canadian Government has decided to start policing EI recipients. Here’s my issue with this…

I’ve paid into this system since I was 16 and never once drawn on it. I have a right to collect on this until I find a suitable position. But the government plans on sending its EI Gestapo to the homes of citizens to round us up and force us to work in Wal-Mart’s within driving distance. Yet the idea of sending a social worker into the home of an able bodied welfare recipient to make sure they’re not spending our money on smokes and motor oil is out of the question and degrading to people on social assistance???

If you’re going to force people into jobs, how about creating one where I get a video camera and follow people around on cheque day? I’ll create a report on each case marking down how they spend the money and what they do all day instead of working. If I have some downtime with the job, I will head over to the hospital emergency room to shake people down who claim to have lower back pains and need Meds.

I am totally going to get all  Harriet M. Welsch on these people, I’m predicting a lot of punches in my face!
