I’m trying to think of another four letter word starting with F that often comes after the word β€œEpic”.

In regards to the SOTU: Maybe this is Inside Baseball but I haven’t heard a speech that long and that boring since a Robert Lantos film won a Genie.

Allow me to add: Farrell!

Some personal news: I’m leaning towards signing off my emails with ”Kind regards” instead of β€œBest”.

I’m really enjoying the Ice Curling at the Winter Olympics.

I know there a lot going on in the world but would a light sabre slice through Captain America’s shield?

Catherine O'Hara could have lived another 20 years and we still would have felt she had more to give and more laurels to receive. As much as the last five years brought awards and appreciations worthy of her talent, it was never going to be enough.

you aren't a true Nova Scotian until you give directions using landmarks that haven't existed for at least 10 years

It must be weird getting a concussion from a hit delivered by a guy with β€˜Choose Love’ on the back of his helmet.

I don’t have any bingo cards so I don’t have to worry about current events not being on them.

In fairness to Aaron Rodgers, he’s the kind of player that if he’s on the other team, you hate him. BUT: if he’s on your team, you really hate him.

Rodgers played tonight like someone who doesn’t have enough nanobots in his blood.

Good morning from Canada, a country whose border Trump has called an β€œimaginary” β€œartificial line” established by an illegitimate treaty. I’d like to be spared your nuanced β€œWere Trump voter’s racist with fascist inclinations or just low information voters with fascist inclinations?” debate today.

I’m not sure those Bell Lean on Me ads need to take place in the same Universe.

Personally I think 99% of the people who claim they didn’t vote for β€œthis” would and will vote for β€œthis” again.

Me every time an old French actor dies: i can’t remember if they were Islamophobic or homophobic or xenophobic or just a misogynist
Me, googling: oh, all of them, I see

(They might not do that anymore, I remember writing a sketch about it years ago in 22 minutes)

Essentially their input on any American show is to clumsily add β€˜On Global’ in whatever font the show’s title is in to the screen somewhere near the show’s title.

Anyone in Canadian tv or anyone who has not been able to watch something because Global forgot to stop or start their simulcast in time, knows the 60 Minutes thing was a simple screw up in an endless series of simple screw ups. Not treachery nor an act of defiant courage.

I don't care that you kept your hands at 10 and 2 and followed the speed limit if you drove us all into a gigantic lake full of burning clown manure while we screamed at you to avoid the clown manure. Good for you that you hung an air freshener on the mirror; I'm sort of focused on the manure now.

The earliest Connor Storrie can get an acting nomination at the CSAs for the first season of Heated Rivalry will be sometime in March 2027.

It used to be that only men could fail upwards but CBS News demonstrates that now women can too. So, progress?

Rich Jeni had a joke about people who chose to sit in the back rows of airplanes, something like: you either have diarrhea or enjoy being with people who do.

That’s what I think of people still on Twitter, with Nazis replacing diarrhea.
