I wouldn't say I've had bad service, but I've had plenty of the "Oh the credit card machine isn't working" bullshit. Fuck that noise
Also, I've never felt like I was going to die quite as much as when I was in a taxi in Montreal. I didn't need to get to the train station that quickly

All it took was a dead raccoon.
The end of my temp ban was signed with a small animal offering.

Is the news going to tweet about everyone who gets the pox from now on? Yeesh
What's the most 'exotic' (for lack of a better word) cuisine y'all have eaten in Toronto? It doesn't have to be 'good', I just really want to try something new...
Was it worth it? I've debating doing the same

Not exotic to me but people don't seem to be very familiar with Pakistani food. Similar to Indian but there are a few dishes that are unique.
Try to track down Paya, Nihari, or Haleem.
They're all 'curries' but Paya (pronouched Pa-eh)is probably the most 'exotic' as it's made of cow's feet.
Nihari is a spicy beef curry.
Haleem is a thick stew type thing made of lentils, rice, and meat.
Paya and Nihari you eat with bread (preferably naan) and Haleem is thick enough to be eaten with a spoon instead of bread if you wish.

The fact there isn't one yet is :lol indeed
If I feel like it I might make one except the OP is all about traffic guidelines

Pan Am Games 2015 OT | Did you even know it's happening right now?! Well?! Do ya?! Punk!
This part of the ceremony is awesome. ASide from easily being the most exciting depiction of Lacrosse ever....that was some sweet music and I really dig the way they're building this around five 'champions'. They had like a Justice League vibe going on with thsoe banners earlier, haha.
But what was that slow-motion video just now during the last bit? lol

last summer olympics was ages ago. was much smaller back then I think.
plus, the pan am games have a ton of wacky events that aren't in the olympics, lol
Toronto Pan Am 2015 = 6,135 athletes
Montreal Summer Olympics 1976 = 6,084 athletes
Vancouver Winter Olympics 2010 = 2,566 athletes
Calgary Winter Olympics 1988 = 1,423 athletes
Latest Summer Olympics is in the 10-11K athletes now.
Hey man, we don't say the O word around Pachi, OK? He gets hurt really easily. We want him to feel like him and the Pan Am games are something worth giving a shit about.
Can't we just give him this?

- 1 person with chicken pox
- 2 badminton players due to clerical error
HOLD STEADY!
He's already been fired. We got the dead raccoon now.

Out on the water today and snapped this pic.
Was gonna head out today for the US game via tix on stubhub, ended up grabbing jays tickets for an august game instead lol.
Their website says that only one of the like 20 stores in my general area has one and I called and it doesn't have a charger with it.

You know, the internet is telling me no one gives a shit about the Pan Am Games and that there will be absolutely no or very few tourists in the city because of it
I went to the Eaton Center with my parents, and, I don't know about you guys, but I saw a lot more tourists being tourists than usual. I came to this result after being asked 5 times where stuff in downtown was.
I also regret not getting Pan Am Baseball tickets. Oh well.
I'm also convinced the majority of people bitching about the Pan Am Games would never set foot anywhere south of Bloor St anyway

Yeah, I saw a lot of tourists these past few days downtown. Everyone there, locals and tourists, seems to embrace the games. The people who bitch about it are the same people who bitch about everything else about this city instead of realizing how much this city has changed for the better in the last 15 years. Go out, enjoy the games, the people, and the vibe.
