Looked for Commonwealth Games coverage all week. Instead of seeing OZZY perform paranoid at the closing ceremonies on Sunday, Professional beanbag league was on TV. CBC (and all network TV) sucks balls. There was even some f===d up ping pong game with soccer balls too. Time to meld some amatuer sports with pop culture for ratings, Shot-put onto field of fat guys, Javelin with a field of politicians, Hop skip and jump on an oil company exec. 
The one is called teqball the other is somewhat expectedly call the American Cornhole League. What Actual F?? LMAO

I nominate this for most thrilling next survivalist-fusion sport. It’s been around for a few decades, but I see a resurgence. Any torontonians remember this thrill-a-minute spectator delight?
Its a real bell-ringer LOL.

Well breakfast is the most important meal of the day you know. So let’s fuck with that by shrinkflating my bread. It’s not even a cm thick.
So now…my breakfast has been cut in half by the powers that be:
That’s right. Outrage. I’m not going to name names but (Weston Bakeries) can use their monopolist mouths on an indecent part of my body.
You know what they say about bread and circuses…
Rant over.

That their way of ensuring responsible use, next comes the half loaves. They even sell half pies in the store, twice the packaging half the fun…You are going to have to change brands, I suggest Villagio, thick and fresh with that angel dust on it @Foreigner

Their “fancy” bread with a fraudulent Italian name has done the same except instead of width it’s surface area.
I would similarly complain about it but it wasn’t my toast of choice this morning.
Man, I got a real hard on for that guy. What a schmuck.
Oh Loblaws how I hate thee let me count the ways…

I’m afraid to even ask. It’s not bread it’s a poor facsimile of bread. At least 15% sawdust I think.

Irradiation perhaps? I dunno. Preservatives, likely. Ever get a flat piece stuck to the roof of your mouth? Disgusting.
I did a little digging and it’s hard to tell where one company ends and the other begins.I take it as an omen…

Looks like a watered down version of Sepak Takraw. Just watching a few minutes of highlights makes me want to go train backflips in the backyard.

great amount of athleticism to those…the cornhole league just looked like a bunch of drunk parents who lost their horseshoes and stole the kids game on the back lawn.

I was a hardcore footbagger back in the day. Looked like breakdancine from a distance with a suade bean bag movin’ aboot.
Anyone using Acanac as an internet provider? If yes is your DSL working?

You want to find a local family bakery… Hunt around a little, you will be surprised at the quality. That Weston/Dumpsters overpriced crap is garbage.

I wish I could.
When I lived in the west end I bought all my stuff at different places. Sri Lankan veg market, Portuguese butcher, Chinese fishmonger, Italian bakery. Took some time but worth it. All within walking distance.
In the suburbs I’m sorry to say there are no such things readily available. I do have a pizza pizza, a pizza nova, a Starbucks, and a gyro shack but that’s about it. And ikea hot dogs but I’m not sure that counts

Ikea hotdogs count even the 50cent upcharge for the veggie dogs, and the meatballs of course lol
