We're surrounded by a donut of ignorant suburbanites.

It bums me out. They all "hate Toronto" while continually claiming that they "live here".

Basically this is a really nasty side effect of the big amalgamation that happened.

It's depressing for sure. At this point, it's like he's constructed a reality-warping bubble and a lot of people (or maybe just a few really vocal oddballs?) are buying property inside.

Resigning would make way too much sense, so it doesn't seem likely. He actually didn't acknowledge anything wrong with being caught smoking crack or being in drunken stupors where smoking crack might incidentally happen, and some people are ok with that. This is so weird.

Goddamn Sonic fans.

We've officially crossed some threshold. When does Rofo steal the chaos emeralds from Obama?

We're not calling him RoFo.

We're not going to do that.

I won't accept it.

 

[Divvy]

Why is a young Adam Savage on the podium?

We're surrounded by a donut of ignorant suburbanites.

You mean the people that helped Miller get elected?

Rob Ford's body double?

 

[Stet]

Someone in the press room just went "hee hee hee hee!"
They're saying what we're all thinking.

 

[Coldnoodle]

This guy needs some serious grooming.

 

[yyzjohn]

This guy needs some serious grooming.

He kinda looked like Brad Pitt on a really bad day.

 

[DopeyFish]

we got the 10 minute warning 30 minutes ago

 

[MikeDip]

Mic check guy looked like he was gonna cry the entire time

 

[Divvy]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

What if he's getting drunk and smoking crack right now?

Crystal courage.

 

[DopeyFish]

i can't talk right now

 

[yyzjohn]

I just missed a great joke.

 

[MickeyPhree]

I live in Florida and am so excited for this press conference.

 

[DopeyFish]

I just missed a great joke.

the person who called must have been confused why they had a laugh track

 

[Kraftwerk]

Guys we are famous! The whole world is watching us.

I will invite Rob Ford to our next Toronto meetup.

 

[You Are Viewtiful]

You mean the people that helped Miller get elected?

Miller mostly got downtown and working-class suburbs. The wealthier suburbs still voted for Tory.

Miller cruised the 2006 election so that's something else.

 

[DopeyFish]

Guys we are famous! The whole world is watching us.

behold our mayor, the microphone!

all hail our glorious mayor mike

 

[Stet]

They laughed because someone got a call from his mom and had to tell her he couldn't talk now.

 

[Stet]

"Are you guys going to light him up?"

Nah, I'm pretty sure he's already lit up.

 

[shadowkat]

No sound? D:

 

[Zombie James]

Sounds like his lawyer was left in the dark.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

I just had a thought:

What if he walks out and does something horrific like shoot himself live on air? At this point, I can't really be sure which way Ford is gonna go.

 

[Kave_Man]

Maan I just know he'll come out as I walk to my car.

Booooo!

 

[ZedIndyLil]

He outright denied earlier that he smoked crack, right? Or was he just denying the video's existence/contents?

 

[yyzjohn]

I just had a thought:

What if he walks out and does something horrific like shoot himself live on air? At this point, I can't really be sure which way Ford is gonna go.

Nah, they'd have to have more on him like Budd Dwyer.

 

[MikeDip]

Listening to the media.. This is not how I pictured them to act at all.

Also, 2 minute warning.

 

[Akuun]

2 minute warning!

Prepare your laugh tracks.

 

[Divvy]

He outright denied earlier that he smoked crack, right? Or was he just denying the video's existence/contents?

He denied it

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

Global says two minute warning.

 

[PalaceBrother]

I just had a thought:

I had the same thought. The internet has desensitized all of us.

Spoiler

He'd want to just move on from it I'm sure

 

[shadowkat]

Now there's sound. 2 min warning!

 

[Yawnier]

Jeeez, I'm just getting caught up on this now but what a complete and utter dumbass this guy is.

 

[Stet]

Personally, I hope he whips it out.

 

[MikeDip]

Personally, I hope he whips it out.

At this point, it may be the smartest thing to do.

 

[NotTheGuyYouKill]

"Here we go, here's Mayor Rob Ford"

Enter random black guy.

 

[Zombie James]

His lawyer is comparing Ford to OJ Simpson. Seriously.

 

[eyeless]

 

[Angry Fork]

It's nice this is happening to such a right wing twat, but doesn't bode well for any progressive view on drug taking. His ideology is much worse than anything he smoked.

 

[DopeyFish]

His lawyer is comparing Ford to OJ Simpson. Seriously.

LOL

 

[Prax]

His lawyer is comparing Ford to OJ Simpson. Seriously.

Wait what.
