She may keep them from you, which would be really sweet of her. I've never had a girl of mine do it, just recognize when other trashy ones do it in a crowded space.



- I hate Peter Loubardias, he's terrible. He should never ever speak into a radio or TV mic ever again.

ACH has its place for certain ailments/situations, but in our experience and estimation, they suck ass.

Nenshi is over-rated and is as useless as Justin Trudeau

What's with all the Trudeau and Trudeau 2.0 bashing? That's not unpopular in Alberta. That's gospel. Unpopular would be saying that Pierre Trudeau was a great PM for his vision of strong centralized federal government.

I am of the opinion that the back door should be as accessible as the front door, and furthermore I should have the right to choose which door i enter and furthermore, I should be allowed to change my mind at the last minute about which door I enter.....

Doubt it.

The people who whine about commentators and play by play men are much louder than the silent group that doesn't mind them.

That said most of the ex-goalies are horrible. I hate Glenn Healey and Greg Millen. Hrudey is better than them and still not amazing as he is constantly analyzing the game from the goalie perspective and being overly critical at times of the goaltending. It's not all about the goalies Hrudey! I guess John Davidson was one of the best color guys and he was an ex-goalie so maybe my generalization doesn't fit. Oh and Ferraro is horrible, just horrible.

I didn't mind Millions, Loubardias and I don't mind Kerr. He could be better but he doesn't negatively impact my game watching experience. Most of the color commentators mentioned above do impact my game watching experience. Simmer I don't find that insightful but at least he doesn't have terrible opinions like Healey, Millen and Ferraro do/did.

I strongly agree. Love the Dome and don't see a need to replace it. Its still young. Just change the music.

When playing crib:

If you throw down a face card and I reply with a five, I think it's pointless to throw your five down as well.

I hate my married friends.

Omaha is a way better poker game than Texas hold em.

- I hate cats. Every time I see one I want to step on its head. They're disgusting stupid animals that use you and dogs are way more fun. Plus, dogs don't sh*t in your house.

- Science-Fiction and Fantasy as a book/movie/TV/video game genre are awful. I can't stand Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Skyrim, etc.

- Hip Hop is the greatest genre of music. I'm a firm believer that mainstream Hip Hop went off a cliff in 1995. Underground Hip Hop is alive and well. You give me a Rock song with a good political/religious/economic/cultural message and I will find a Hip Hop artist and song that blows your rock song out of the water.

- I can't stand Sidney Crosby.

- Girls with big boobs ARE disgusting.

- I have a preconception (that may or may not be true) that Calgarians are just a bunch of rich oil and gas business pricks with no concern for any kind of social justice issues whether environmental, same sex marriage, wars overseas, etc.

- Omar from The Wire is the best television character ever.

- I agree with probably 50% of what Alex Jones says.

- CBC is both a vital and important part of Canadian culture and needs to have its funding dramatically increased.

- I love the Can-Con requirements the CRTC has in place.

- Drinking alcohol is a wussy way to 'loosen up' in social situations. Grow up and learn social skills by trial and error when you're sober.

- I think goalies should be allowed to get smoked when they leave the blue paint.

- BC, not Alberta, is the best Canadian province.

- Tomatoes are gross.

- For the most part, I hate white people. Except Seth Rogen.

- I like Paul Rudd.

- Malt liquor is the best alcohol there is. Cheap and effective. (Yes, I know it makes you look like a bum).

Rap music is the downfall of American Culture.

I hate the smugness of Filipino workers at fast food restaurants!

I like me some Pot Limit Omaha Hi/Lo 8 or better. Haven't gotten into PLO much. I like mixed games too. HORSE, 8 game. I like Razz for some reason too. Based on the wealth of information about Hold'Em that is probably my best game although I fancy myself decent at PLO8.

You're right. Rap music is the downfall of American culture. But Hip Hop music is not.
