Zombie paintball scares up new home in Semiahmoo Park - Peace Arch News

The most fucked up thing ever!

Look what happened to Jess,  lead axe from M.G. Graveyard!

Jess was crossing the border into Washington State, which last year legalized recreational marijuana, on her way to a show. She was asked if she had ever smoked pot and decided to tell the truth, saying yes.  Jess was held and interrogated for several hours, then barred from entering the U.S. FOR LIFE!

Just as we thought our southern neighbors couldn't get any stupider...

All our energies are going out to Jess (and the rest of M.G. Graveyard), and if you get the chance, sign (or start) a petition, tell everyone you know about the incident, stand on a table and yell, anything! Just don't let the issue fall by the wayside and die.  People HAVE to know how fucking backwards and ludicrous this is.

I'm off to be angry, as always,

Be safe.

Employer attitudes and behaviors that need to change in BC

I was recently privy to some disturbing information from a Manager of a popular Home decoration outlet. This manager is responsible for hiring, and rather than post job opportunities for her store in newspapers or the internet she will march directly to a Immigration Employment office for potential candidates or she would actively seek a temporary foreign worker. She reasoned that Canadians would not apply for night shifts or shift work, they would either quit or turn down the opportunity, and lastly that foreign workers have the training that Canadians lack for the position and they will work for less money. Even more disturbing, she stated that English language skills was not a condition of employment because she uses a phone app to translate and communicate with her employees. I am disgusted by her hiring practises that don't favor Canadian citizens, her prejudiced beliefs about Canadians not being skilled or dependable enough to fill the positions, and I am appalled that she is a managerial position.

British Columbia should include in their Employment Standards Act that they will only hire Canadian citizens that speak the official language(s) of Canada. That Canadian employers will no longer post positions that prefers the candidate to speak a non-native language of Canada because this practise heavily discriminates against Candian citizens, and creates cultural and racial exclusivity in the workplace. Lastly, Employers will have their business licence revoked if they hire temporary foreign workers, outsource their business outside of Canada, do not pay taxes or send majority of their profits to another country, or discriminate against hiring Canadians in their workplace. Respect and preference for jobs in BC needs to be given to Canadians.

Part 1:

Bitstrips. In case you've been living under a rock, or, like me, would rather spend your time on “FacetheotherwayBook”, chances are you've seen people using this 'brilliant' and/or 'hilarious' new application (I also hate the abbreviation – it's Dutch for ape). For those of us who don't give a fuck, or wouldn't, were it not for the fact that we now have thousands of would be Watersons cramming it down our cyberthroats, Bitstrips allows ANYBODY to create an avatar of themselves, then insert themselves into a series of pre-drawn 'humorous' situations. The user then includes their own captions, thereby completing the strip and infecting the rest of us with their off-beat, twisted take on everyday life. News flash – everyday life is fucking DULL! That's why we call it everyday life. News-ER flash – our own everyday life is dull, so yours is even … any guesses? YES! Even DULLER. More News-er flash – unless we are familiar with every single aspect of your life, we probably won't get the references you're making in your side splitting, knee slapping comic adventures. Here's an example:

Panel 1: someone's Mom, caption: “Make sure you change your socks, dear”

Panel 2: writer's avatar, caption: “I can't, one's missing”

Final Panel: Mom, caption: “I guess you'd better call Uncle Dennis, then!” The End.

See, here's the problem, the person guilty of this cartoon atrocity thinks that everyone will instantly see this as funny. However, unless the reader knows that, 35 years ago, you and Uncle Dennis had a little game wherein you would prank each other by stealing one sock from the sock drawer, filling it with choice chunks from Leo's cat box, then replacing it, not in the sock drawer, but (wait for it!)... the SHIRT drawer, then wait for the hilarity to ensue, they will not get the full benefit of the comedic payoff.

More and more of these 'Comic Strips' are turning up on my page, which means that more people I know are sniffing glue, smoking crack and eating WAY too many Gravol (washed down with a bottle of Red Devil). It saddens me. It angers me. It annoys me. It does NOT make me laugh. In fact, the only people who think its funny are the ones who wrote it, and their loved ones, who only pretend its funny so they don't make the writer cry.

Ooh, that reminds me, I gotta go call my Uncle Dennis, I just got a terrific idea for a strip...

As always, Be safe.
