Just when you thought the holidays were over, it’s time for Valentine’s Day and the accompanying pressure to buy some more stuff for your significant other. But not everyone who reads this magazine has a significant other (it’s by choice, I know). So I thought I’d take a moment to provide some public service to [...]

Bruce McDonald is a true rock ‘n’ roll cowboy if there ever was one. The man is, of course, responsible for Hardcore Logo, one of the greatest Rock ‘n’ Roll movies of all time. Add director’s credits for Dance Me Outside, Roadkill, Highway 61 and Degrassi: The Next Generation to the mix and you’ve got [...]

I was sitting there writing the editor’s letter when I felt my stomach rumbling. In my haste to get to the kitchen, I didn’t notice my laptop’s power cable messily strewn across the laminate floor. I briefly stumbled but my cat-like balance kept me from falling to my cheap yet durable floor. The laptop wasn’t [...]

Toronto, I hate you. You live in the shadow of New York and Chicago and have no identity whatsoever. You also have no homeless people. Where do you hide them all? In Vancouver, right? What really irks me about your city though is that it’s so nauseatingly supportive. Take the Maple Leafs for example. They’re [...]

You’re sitting quietly eating dinner with you partner. Engaging in some polite conversation about the weather with your partner. Then smash! An elite fighting force of sharply dressed men bust through your door and windows. You’ve just been busted by the fashion police. What do you do hotshot? What do you do? Well it’s fall, [...]

Without a doubt there are no benefits to being in the middle seat on a plane. The window seat? Hey, you can look out the window and no one will bug you so they can squeeze by to go to the bathroom for the entire flight. It’s the perfect seat to take a handful of [...]

A friend was enthusiastically telling me about a concert he attended at a rather large venue. “They were unreal, man. Have you ever heard of these guys?” he asked. “Why yes my good friend,” I replied, “I am very much aware of this band you so enjoyed. In fact, I saw them back in the [...]

Don’t bitch at me that you can’t find a job. There are jobs everywhere. Good ones where you can get rich quick with no employable skills. Why just the other day a nice man named Chris from Primerica called me up and offered me a job based on my management and customer service skills (full [...]

I hope your holidays were swell. Mine were. For a New Year’s resolution I decided my life needed more definition. So like many over the holidays, I succumbed to the peer pressure of purchasing an HD television. I’ve learned that standard definition television is a euphemism. It’s actually low definition. Drunk in the gutter while [...]

On the surface, Android 207 is a simple stop-motion animated short about an android trapped in a maze. What is surprising with this film is the eerie humanity of the android as it faces the pitfalls and dangers lurking around the corners. There is a real soul in that little guy, and we feel for [...]

So I’m sitting in my underwear completely wasted and watching professional wrestling. I can get as pretentious about popular culture as the next person but when it really boils down, in my spare time I like to watch grown men kick the crap out of each other for the amusement of 20,000 screaming hillbillies holding [...]

In only cost me $200 to join the Church of Satan, and it did wonders for me, so I recommend you do the same. The Satanists get a pretty bad rap. People tend to get hung up on the whole worshipping the devil thing. But if you can see past that, you’ll find they’re really [...]
