“Look at that ‘thug’, he’s just trying to be black.”

Calling thugged-out white people wannabe blacks is a pretty racist thing to say. You’re saying all black people are thugged-out, mean-mugging criminals. That’s considerably: Incorrect, racist, and ignorant.

Hip hop is not about color, it’s about culture. Before you judge the way they act, speak, dress, etc you should first learn a little more about the subculture. Disagree? Well I feel bad for you... Hip Hop lives in the North

What is it with women who use this extremely strong, pungent, stinky, nose-hair-burning, eye irritating, etc., etc. perfume? I mean, WTF? I don't wear it and I have spoken with friends and they, one in particular, find that the smell is really close to powdered toilet bowl cleanser! I don't know if I completely agree with that but I do find it gross.

Hey girls, what famous individual endorsed this shit? You smell like toilets!—Madam Bluenose

I live in a building that, as of late, has become pretty horrible to live in, if nothing else for the constant noise from the renovations of the parking garage that usually start early in the morning and have been going on for well over a month now. For people that need to sleep late because of their jobs, this is not a good thing.

As I'm writing this now, I'm waiting for them to turn the water on so i can shower. It's been off for "unseen" circumstances for the past 3-4 hours, which is the excuse whenever they turn the water off and which happens a lot. On top of that, the rent keeps going up! Talk about a life of luxury. —D.Grayson

I served this table of 4. Two parents, two kids. They ordered 2 pizzas, one was for the parents to share, the other was for the children. Mistakes happen in restaurants, and it so happened that the children's pizza got partly stuck to the pan. However it was still salvageable, except for one piece. This was the only thing that went wrong.

Most servers at my workplace just replace the entire thing (throw the ruined pizza out or let the staff eat it) and nothing more. However, I decided it wouldn't be fair to have the kids wait there, hungry, while their parents ate. (The kids couldn't just munch on their parents' pizza because they didn't like mushrooms, as their mom stated earlier). So I brought both pizzas down to the table and told them exactly what happened. AND on top of that I informed them the replacement pizza was coming, free of charge. So basically they were practically getting a whole pizza for free. They were so happy. "Oh thank you!" The mom said. The rest of their experience went perfectly fine, as I was very attentive.

To the mom (who paid the bill): How could you have the nerve to still not leave a cent for me after all of that??? Yeah, you paid debit and skipped the tip option, and then as I go back to clean your table I realized nothing was there either (not even a dollar or two, REALLY?)! Thanks so much for stiffing me after I got you a free pizza! All I had to do was get the kitchen to remake the pizza and make your kids wait an extra 10 minutes or so. But you know what? I didn’t! I gave a little extra and you stiffing me was a fucking slap in the face! And yes, you can afford to leave a few bucks, honey, if you can afford designer sunglasses and two of the most expensive pizzas on the menu!

I’ve been reading LTWWB for quite a while now and I know you people hate tipping bitches and I’m gonna get comments such as “Wah wah! Poor little self-entitled server didn’t get her tip!”. For the record, I do not in any way think I deserve a tip if I give shitty service; for example, I don’t expect a tip if I fuck up an order and don’t compensate the customer for it. I work for my tips because I know I have to!

I am a damn good server, and this is just one of the times I’ve went above and beyond. So lady, next time your cheap ass comes in (and I know you will because you came in quite a few times, and other people served you) and I have the pleasure of serving you again, you are getting NOTHING extra! If it just so happens that your pizza gets stuck again (and has to get remade), you’re fucking waiting for the remake and the staff or the compost bin is getting your original one! —Server who got screwed

I'm not trying to date you... I'm really not. So stop acting weird when you get messages wanting to "hang out"... —Girls just want to have fun.

To the driver who parked his car in the fire lane in front of the North Street Sobeys:

You idled your vehicle for a while, trapping me in at the exit (the store's display of flowers & plants blocks the path to the sidewalk) and subjecting me and my baby to your car's exhaust.

When you decided to put it in park, you obstructed a pedestrian crosswalk and the fire lane (which is illegal), forcing me to walk out into traffic to make my way back to the sidewalk. I objected. You had some passengers with mobility issues. This doesn't exempt you from the rules, guy. If your passengers can't make the journey from the parking lot to the entrance, they're in need of a walker or a wheelchair. If they can walk around inside the store, they don't need to be ferried to the entrance.

I'm not trying to be an asshole but I hate it when people impose on others because they believe their needs are more important. And I really hate it when I'm forced to put my kid at risk for the sake of someone else's convenience. Rules exist because of people like you. Try it again and I'll insist that the store and/or police get involved. —Mama Bear

It's great that we're friends but you're really starting to drive me crazy! It was fun and games for a little while but right now I'm starting to get really tired of them!

I would like to tell you how I feel but I'm sure you may already know... please just spare me because it's still not fair to me. I don't want to be harsh because stupidly I'm still afraid of losing you completely! I don't want to do this anymore, it's becoming too much.

You're very special, but I think you're just having fun messing with my head... You either want me or you don't. —PunkKittyKat

While taking part in the opening day of bike week I couldn't help but notice the presence of an according bus. I'm not sure exactly what they were doing to support bike week beyond showing people how to use the bike racks available on the front of their buses, but I couldn't help but notice that they sat parked at the curb with the bus idling hour after hour.

Boo, you missed the point. —Dan on the Common

I'm tired of hearing businesses whining that business is tough, the economy is rough, government is giving them the shouf... whine whine whine.

WHEN A POTENTIAL CUSTOMER CALLS ASKING ABOUT YOUR PRODUCT/SERVICES CALL THEM BACK!

What is it with places around here? You can call and email them until your blue in the face: nothing. Or, my favorite is when you do get through and you require them to come to your house to spec out the job. You take the day off from work, and guess what they don't show up. You call an hour later and they tell you their on the way. End of day no sign. My neighbor right now has been three weeks trying to get a services company to call him back. If you're busy, at least call the man back, tell him when you can attend to him so he at least knows where he stand.

My solution: Where possible I buy from Newfoundland, Ontario and USA suppliers, often via the Internet. My money is singing "farewell to Nova Scotia"!!

Frig this place is backwards. —Service Sucks

What the fuck is going on. No Crosby, no Habs, so no coverage. Fuck. Hockey is our so-called National Sport and yet after Game 1 of the finals, the only mention of it in the paper is in the Scoreboard section. Ya think with a high scoring seesaw game, they would write at least one article. —Where The Fuck Is The Coverage?
