Again Returning Again

After another haitus, I think I'll try to do this again. First, I'd like to clear my chest of a few things. Number 1: I really hate the word "blog". It's awful. It's flat, and contains both the sound Blah (as in BLAH-BLAH-BLAH) as well as the word "Log". It also has an abrupt end to it- that g'uh sound. But besides the phonetic blunders, the blog really is a remarkable thing. It's like having your own publishing house to print your shitty, uneducated points of view and, theoretically, that's pretty great. So, with those two things aside, I'd like to give this shit another try. Hopefully I can get into some other topics besides the medium itself and eventually (maybe-just-maybe) I'll tackle that final flaw within the blog structure... the complete absence of readers.

So, before I sign off, I'd like to make an official post on a topic other than this blog:

Today I went to a diner to have breakfast. It's the kind of diner that's slightly retrofitted with vinyl seats and a bar with swivel seats. And yes, it's a little bit cool in the worst way... but only a little bit. Anyway, I'm sitting at the bar (there were no booths available) and in walk these three people (2 guys and a girl). And they are also the worst way of cool. And just as they walk in, one of the guys remarks "Ya know, I don't remember Toronto having so many diners..." ... ... Okay. The first thing that came to mind was "Are you fucking retarded?" Is that even a thought? First of all, where has this guy been? Montreal, Paris, New York, Beijing? Obviously Toronto has a shit load of diners, it's the biggest city (by like 2 million) in the country. And second, people like to eat and not do dishes. So yes, there are diners here. But the worst part was how he said it... it wasn't some sort of comment on urban development or small business practice or something like that. It was completely him saying "Wow! Where I live now (a place obviously cooler than this) we have loads of cool diners and this one is also cool. It's cooler than I thought they had here in Toronto." Okay. Thank you for your almost-commentary on something, you mental defective. Now please leave and go back to wherever you came from, so you can say things like "D'you know what I love about this city (a cool city of your choice)?... The culture."

That's nearly a thought.
