by Sean Orr | Hey, remember when India lost its shit when the story of its gang rape victim made international headlines? Report alleges RCMP officers gang-raped B.C. woman, calls for action [sound of crickets], and then they have the nerve to question the estimated number of missing aboriginal women? Are the Mounties trying to get disbanded? If so, I would recommend that they just walk around playgrounds pepper spraying little kids in the face.
Alternatively, they could strap on snowboards and try to bust some weed smokers on the slopes of Whistler: Canada’s War on Pot Just Got Weirder.

Meanwhile, the Facebook post of the day comes from Matt Snakes: “There’s Star Trek burlesque at the Wise Hall tonight. Which is interesting because Star Trek is the best thing ever and burlesque is the worst thing ever.”
Can we please institute a Logan’s Run type policy? I turn 35 in a couple of months, so I’ll be the first volunteer. Living longer may be a curse to baby boomers if the later years are filled with pain and sickness. Oh my god, I hate old people so much.
When are we going to get robots? Needed: One million workers. Wanted: One million lovers.
