Seriously, what the fuck?

Apparently that was in Calgary. Figures, city spews enough shit already.

How the hell did that happen?

[CaptainChewbacca]

Either a broken main, or someone flushed. Either way, it was NOT that driver's day.

Says the guy from the city with no skyline, whose main street is the size of one of our boulevards, doesn't have any right-angle intersections as the designers were drunk at the time, and features shitty rumbling one-way bridges. Not to mention that the overall appearance of the residential areas at night-time is exactly like that of Calgary, having been directly stolen - only during the day does the overall dirty appearance of the surroundings reveal that one is in fact in Edmonton.

Its a venting storm system and a faulty lid.

I could go through the effort of pointing out every lie and deliberate misrepresentation in your post, but we both know it's not worth the trouble; you're a Calgarian, after all. Still jealous after all these years that you didn't get to be the Capital, eh?

PS: And no skyline? That's maybe because of the beautiful river valley that you guys wish you had? And which main street are you talking about?

And you take that back about the High Level Bridge, motherfucker. You just wish you had a wicked bridge to turn into a waterfall.

You're right, then we'd also have to mention how shockingly bad the roadworks and resultant delays are (even by Calgary standards, where it's pretty atrocious), and the generally polluted smell of the city.

While the actual Legislature building is lovely, I'm not too hot about it's contents, feel free to keep them.

Clearly you've never gone canoing on the Bow River, and appreciated the cleaner air. Or compared the surprisingly claustrophobic Whyte Avenue to 17th Avenue. And admit it: there's not a person in the world who has crossed that bridge and managed to go back without becoming utterly lost and circling for 15 minutes.

Oh, and your mall is disappointing, I was expecting far more from the biggest mall in North America - it's barely 3 times the size of our completely average Chinook Center, and all the girls are a notch less attractive. Although the pirate ship is pretty sweet, and everything is cheaper than over here.

But these are really minor quibbles in the grand scheme of things, and we can always stand united in not being Toronto.

Fuck Toronto.
