Man, your posts have been cuss riddled of late. Not that I give a fuck. Just sayin'.

I feel terrible about this. Then there were all the really bad ones that I didn't post.

I'd take them all down except that then the 29+7 comments would come down too.

Anyway, there will be no more swearing from my little northern hangout. None. I'm on my way to FL next week and no one swears there.

I could take this one down though. No one cares much about Comic Sans. Except me. It's the only font I've ever found that speaks to me.

It's kind of like the fiddle music of text display. With fiddle music, you can be playing a funeral dirge or death march - it doesn't matter what you play - it all sounds like square dancing. (Whereas with bagpipes, you could be playing happy dance music, and it all sounds like a death march.)

Just happy about the Blue Jays 11-game winning streak, I guess.

First of all, how the hell was I not following you? Not sure how that happened… But it had nothing to do with the swearing and everything to do with fat stubby fingers pushing the wrong button on my phone. Sorry about that. That said, you should definitely not take these posts down. Swearing is good for you fuck fuckity fuck fuck

Sadly, the Tigers are coming to town next week, so I wouldn't get too attached to that win streak ;)

But FL in the summer. Yuck. Gimme Canada any day over that. To me, fall is the perfect season down there. Beautiful weather and no tourists yet.

a long long story how it happens to be Florida in the summer. It's totally wrong. I have my compass spinning.
