Justin Bieber, stop embarrassing your country

 




Update: This post was written earlier in the week before Philip Seymour Hoffman died tragically of an overdose. I think it makes it even more poignant given the fact that Hoffman had a life long struggle with an opium addiction. RIP, young man.

Hey parents! Remember when your kid came up to you when he was 16 and said this?
I can do whatever I want. I'm 16.
That's when he stopped going to school and started smoking weed and fornicating in the bushes.
What's that you say? Your kid never did that?
That's because your kid was the one in my basement dealing the weed.
Justin Bieber is just going through a phase.
The difference between Justin Bieber and your kid is about 30 million buckaroos.
So chill. The kid's not going to be found with needles sticking out of his arm with a strangely accented doctor singing over his dead body.
He's not Michael Jackson. He's Corey Feldman.
The trouble with Justin is he wants to be cool, and he's just not cool.
He grew up in Stratford. Hello!
He needs Philip Seymour Hoffman to give him the speech.
If you need to buy $8,000 a month in weed, you don't know how to smoke it.
If you want to drag race a sportscar, learn how to use the stick and drive over the speed limit.
Don't take your dad to strip clubs. He's not cool, either.
If a guy's name starts with L'il, he's not your friend.
Finally, phone your mother once in a while.
Justin Bieber's acting out because he's 19 -- going on 12 -- and he's trying to impress a girl.
Somebody needs to tell him that ship has sailed.
He should buy himself a new monkey or a Macadamia farm.
Invest in Shopify.
Hey Justin!
Stop being a douche.
You're embarrassing your country.

Justin will straighten up when tweens stop buying his records.
Nobody throws teddy bears at a pimply-faced, black toothed 25-year-old with beer paunch and skid marks in his underwear.
Cute wears off very quickly when mixed with drugs, booze and McDonald's.
Ask David Cassidy.

What Bell isn't telling you about Fibe TV

Update: This week, we switched back to Rogers after spending far too long using Bell's crappy television service. For those with Bell, read and weep. For those considering Bell, think twice even if you hate Rogers. RS I've always been an early technology adapter. I had a Betamax. That tells you everything (if you're over 50 at least). My first computer was a "Portable". It weighed 40 pounds and I had to lug it around town on a gurney. I've been through probably 15 computers in my lifetime. Apple is the best. It's also too expensive so I have a piece of shit HP, the one I'm writing this blog on. I've had cable, internet and now Netflix. American Netflix . That's how far ahead of the curve I am. I get all the newspapers for free. How? I disabled my cookies so they can't track me when I'm on the newspaper sites. Even the New York Times hasn't cottoned on to that trick. Hahaha. That will be a fifty buck consulting fee. Bein...

Ashley Simpson: Please sign this petition to help her family

Those who read this space regularly know that my family is frantic with worry about my cousin, Ashley Simpson , who has been missing 40 days now. Both her boyfriend and her landlord reported that she had left with no money, no car, no resources from her Salmon Arm, B.C. home after a domestic dispute over money. Since then, there has been no trace of her. The RCMP now considers this a homicide investigation, but the family has not heard any updates from them in more than three weeks. Just after she disappeared, her father, relatives and friends set out from St. Catharines on a long trek to B.C. to find her. They all left their work, and their lives, intent on finding Ashley who had always kept in touch. It was completely out of character for her to lose touch. Her parents have been consumed by worry. They have been unable to work, and are having a hard time functioning. As a result, they are now relying on donations from family and friends to keep the wolf from the door...

The strange case of Greg Etue

I got out of the daily news reporting game, I'll admit, because I didn't have the stomach to cover the many sad stories that came across my desk. I remember clearly once when I had to call an RCMP sergeant after his young son blew his head off with the officer's service revolver. "Please," he pleaded. "I really can't talk right now." "It was your gun, is that correct?" He slammed down the receiver. I was ashamed of myself. People have a right to some privacy in difficult times like that. I also used to hate having to go to the door of a dead child's home and jostle the competition for a picture. Really, it felt more like ghoulism than journalism. That said, I still believe that these stories must be told in an honest and forthright fashion with all the facts and none of the flourish and emotion that is all the rage in reporting these days. Over the past two years, we, in this community, have been treated to a lot o...
