One day suspension for using the term “kiddos”. Actually make it two because you’re a latte sipping urbanite. From Suburbians it’s expected.

I’d wager that he/she also uses the term “fur baby.”

Maybe, but knowing Bigtime what he actually said was “Fir baby!”

That happened to me one day this year. It was super weird because I don't have allergies, wasn't sick and didn't get sick. It was just like a faucet for some reason.

Happens to me occasionally with environmental allergies. Yesterday in fact. I was home, and had not been outdoors yet. Very odd.

Once or twice a year the police will just practice motorcade duty. They often stop at the McDougall Centre at 5th Ave & 6th Street, presumably to practice escorting government officials. In the years I've worked downtown I think I've seen them doing an actual motorcade maybe twice.

My son plays on the iPad using touch screen controls with no problem. I originally connected a PS4 remote to the iPad so he could play that way. He tried the controller a few times but actually prefers touch controls.

So. You have a 'fur prisoner.'

Trapped in your home against its will through no fault of its own aside from being born a cat.

You monster!!

You take that cat outside this instant and you set it free! Freedom for Bigtime's feline fur prisoner!! FREEDOM!!

Saying they have a fur baby annoys me, but I feel like someone calling themselves a pet parent annoys me more than them saying they have a fur baby.

Yeah its weird. My In-Laws when they're playing with my Dog will say "go to your Dad!!"

I'm not his dad.

I consider this more of a 'Han Solo/Chewbacca' style relationship. In exchange for food, shelter, treats, chew toys and other amenities my dog's got my back!

Rather than a parent/child style of relationship which I find weird.

June 25…which is asinine. Who does this and picks a date partway through the year like that.

When does the rezoning of houses in Calgary get officially implemented? Has it already happened?

Someone who's trying to maximize current year revenue and doesn't care about logic or future revenue.

What is the point of this? It must be a scam, but nobody is paying $50k for BP mints so what are they trying to do? Boredom?

Why do people say "good luck" before someone is writing an exam, giving a big presentation, etc.? Success at most things isn't a matter of luck.
