Why would that matter? I form my own opinions and make my own decisions. I don't let my girlfriend tell me who I should and shouldn't vote for.

Jesus, do I really need green text for some of you guys? I could explain my original post, but from the looks of it, even THAT wouldn't work. Either my humour sucks, or it clearly went over the head of some of you.

Should I post a meme?

Internet. Serious business indeed.

Come on Tron, how the hell was everyone supposed to know that a grown man doing exactly what his girlfriend says without questioning it would be a joke?

I think I need a custom handle that says

"Has bad bully syndrome"

because I clearly lead my life based on the opinions of others, and who bullies me the hardest.

To be fair, though, accessible poontang affects you far more than inacessible poontang. That's the poontang people should be really interested about.

Being whipped is pretty common these days, I saw a friend who got punched in the head (clean right hook) by his girlfriend simply because he said hi to a girl he knew in one of his classes.

I hate Nenshi; I wanted to be Calgary's first brown mayor.

One of the reasons why it functions more effectively is how the Mayor chairs Council. He provides enough latitude in the strange procedural by-laws for strong debate and also keeps the tone more casual and light - he tends to inject some humour in there.
The biggest plus I take away from Nenshi's term thus far is that he consistantly pisses off Gord Lowe. That in my books means he must be doing something right!

I have yet to meet a single person who will admit to voting for Gord Lowe. He is the biggest asshat on council, and I can't stand that he is my respresentative. He is an A+ A$$hole.

I also live in Ward 2 and never voted for Gord Lowe. When you read statements and hear sound bytes from him he sounds like he's actually actively trying to be the most pompus arrogant asshat in all of the land.

Not my ward, and I don't know much about Lowe, but I'm quoting that purely for awesomeness of phrasing... It's like the fairy tale of Calgary City Council...

Ever since Nenshi became Mayor every time I've seen Gord Lowe it seems like he has just came from the bathroom after a good cry.

Warms my heart.
