CC Random thread

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

My white Drywaller on my other job is a Christian holy roller who won’t stop bringing up Jesus and the lord ,when we talk, and keeps trying to convert me. All his employees are former gangsters, alcoholics, drug addicts and ex-cons who found god. What’s the world coming to?

What makes them the worst? Their design or the political leaning of their brand's owner?

Yeah, pretty nice when you got the $$$ to renovate for decades but never live in it.

I believe this is on Cornwall in Kits? I used to pass by all the time when I lived around the Alma & 4th neighbourhood. Back then it was known as the hood for David Duchovny and various drug dealers.

Both. When I first saw them on the streets of Vancouver I laughed openly and I didn’t even know they were Musk’s. I remember watching this pedestrian looking at the truck, as it was stopped in front of me, and he was shaking his in disgust at it, no word of a lie. They are absolutely cheesey looking.

Why do people get so worked up about someone else's style choices? Imagine shaking your fist at someone because you don't like their hat. Ridiculous.

Like those (Republican Christian fucks) who get mad at one’s sexual “style choice” if it isn’t in accordance with their “good” book? “Shaking their fist” at it? Or what a woman chooses to do with her body (abortion) after being raped by cousin Ted? Why get so worked up about it? Ridiculous

Oh yeah, probably a redneck Trumper. They deserve to have "Nazi" spray painted on their horse.

Yags, you sound very envious of Linden’s palatial home. Why?

Not envious of Linden. Regrets for not dealing drugs.

Charles Bukowski - Drive Thru Hell

The people are weary, unhappy and frustrated, the people are bitter and vengeful, the people are deluded and fearful, the people are angry and uninventive and I drive among them on the freeway and they project what is left of themselves in their manner of driving.

- some more hateful, more thwarted than others
- some don’t like to be passed
- some attempt to keep others from passing
- some attempt to block lane changes
- some hate cars of a newer, more expensive model
- others in these cars hate the older cars.

the freeway is a circus of cheap and petty emotions, it’s humanity on the move, most of them coming from some place they hated and going to another they hate just as much or more.

The freeways are a lesson in what we have become and most of the crashes and deaths are the collision of incomplete beings, of pitiful and demented lives.

When I drive the freeways I see the soul of humanity of my city and it’s ugly, ugly, ugly: the living have choked the heart away
