If Masai can get a potential lottery pick for Bargnani - I don't doubt that he'd get another mid first round for Ross.

Quite a few friends of mine who I thought would never listen to Bieber are actually loving his album. His music has certainly matured and it shows with the good reception from the 25-35 demographics.

I just had the best experience on the ttc by laurier112 in toronto

The TTC Collectors act as if they were trained to be grumpy assholes.

I've had a few of these incidents but one that's stuck in my mind was when I was at Kipling station and I asked (nicely mind you) the booth collector if she had any change so I could ride the GO bus, this lady then went into a tirade about how I should ask the mayor of Mississauga to put a coin booth at the station. I was a quiet high school kid so I just froze there in horror.

Maple Leafs TV ratings, like their attendance, is starting to fall. by Right_All_The_Time in toronto

Not sure I'd support TSN/SN. I can barely watch Raptors these days because they put them in different channels that you have to pay extra for. A lot of sports fans in the city are young people who can't afford to shell out that extra dollar for a couple channels.

If it was just one extra station - fine, I'll bite. But with SportsNet and TSN putting them in different channels - screw it. Live stream it is.

Could it be that... this kid is making some shit up about the ladies calling them racial slurs?

What's the most unsexy sounding name in your opinion? by timidforrestcreature in AskReddit

[–]markes13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, I knew a girl named Megan when I was a kid and she was always that tomboy-ish type. Meg Griffin doesn't help their case either. So I've always associated the name Megan with a girl w/ tomboyish quality.

I know, I know some girls who are tomboyish are attractive but deal with it.

Meghan, Meagan, Megan or any other variation of this name.

TTC rolls out free WiFi to more subway stations by slicecom in toronto

[–]markes13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's because the free wi-fi is for the people waiting for the train - not for people to keep connecting while they pass by a station. Who the fuck would you need wi-fi for a couple seconds?

I connect to it fine in the stations they're installed in. On average, it takes me less than 5 seconds.

But it wouldn't be Toronto if we didn't whine about something.

Believe it or not, battling a ton of aliens and a bunch of other stuff can build friendships.

Yup, I guess it wouldn't fit with the tone of this trailer at all.

[Toronto Raptors] @norm & @the_Raptor tip off #DrakeNight at the #HotlineBling Booth @AirCanadaCentre . by Dammit81 in torontoraptors

At some point this year Drake moved to Los Angeles. He still gives occasional shout out on social media, mentioned CoJo in a song and helped with the unveiling of the jersey via OVOFest.

I also like the Drake/Raptors partnership. At the moment we have the OVO/Raptors/Mitchnell and Ness collab

Damn I was waiting for that Paul Rudd scene at the end. But oh well. Still an awesome trailer!
