Probably just the same delusions of grandeur they've always had. Like how when Rob was in Ottawa he figured he'd just waltz into Lansdowne Park and they'd give him a grand tour of the construction. Rob is so absurdly delusional that once in a blue moon it works out spectacularly in his...

It seems like Doolittle's book tour may have helped to focus some of the attention on the serious side of all this. Thank goodness she rushed to release it ASAP.

Yeah I've heard it a few times, it's rather embarrassing, the only people who would call it such know nothing about the real Silicon Valley.

Someone on Reddit yesterday guessed that Ford's appearance on the show would be an "intervention". Maybe the surprise guest will be Diane and that's also why both brothers are there. As far-fetched as that sounds given that it's Kimmel and not Oprah, I wouldn't put it past them, though I don't...

By "attend" the Oscars does he mean walk up to the entrance and get turned away by security because he's not invited? The venue only sits like 3000 so I can't imagine there's any way in hell he's getting a seat unless some pretty important people pull some strings. Maybe he's invited to one of...

You look at all these cyclists getting killed, and my heart bleeds for them. But at the end of the day it's their own fault, roads are for cars. That's why my administration is committed to removing bike lanes. Kids should ride on the sidewalks and in school yards where it's safe. Next question?

No, it might be correct to say "most are reasoned and intelligent some of the time", but if you think the average person isn't frequently if not most often irrational and, well, moronic, then I'd question whether you live a sheltered life with only limited association with people who aren't...

Hahah looks like Rob is the only one there without a laptop/tablet, I wonder if he even knows how to use a computer for "work", I can just picture him taking 5 minutes to type a few words, waving his two sausage fingers over the keyboard brow furrowed in concentration as he searches for the...

Actually the massive growth in the wealth of the 1% and rising inequality in developed countries has nothing to do with exploitation of the lower and middle classes. It's a phenomenon that's happening in all developed countries, including those with socialist governments. And if you look at...

I don't want to see buck naked men running across Church Street. Do I condone buck naked men biking across to the streetcar? Absolutely not. Crosswalks are for cars to drive on. Subways.

This is pretty much what I would have expected. Successful and wealthy people are generally above average in a number of inherited attributes like intelligence, work ethic, maturity, looks, and so forth. Rob of course has very little going for him in any of these areas. Growing up he was...

Well maybe that source was a meteorologist.

Something something waste of taxpayers' money something something child molesters.

Dinosaur here. Been lurking on UT since close to the start, I think in 2002? I was just a student with a mild interest in skyscrapers, architecture, and urban issues and enjoyed the photo update threads. If one were to ask me separately I wouldn't have guessed that the digital camera or...

Well that's a lot of fancy words, it's certainly going to be embarrassing for you when there are 35,779,422,129,633,810 posts by the end of Ford's second term just like the model predicts.

Looks like it's the end for the Ford Broncos. Foreshadowing?

"I support the police more than anyone. Front-line officers, I support them, you know I support them. We would do anything for our front-line officers."

I was amused to learn that Rhiannon is only in her 20's with an arts degree from Ryerson, no experience prior to the ECC, and only worked there three years before becoming CEO. The name makes it sound like one of those old boy's (girl's?) clubs that I expected to have a long waiting list of...

Yup, I've only been stuck on an elevator once but staff were aware within minutes but it took another good 30-45 minutes for the guys from the elevator company to get there, do whatever they needed to do, and get us out. And I don't know why people think it's unusual that people at the venue...

I don't think his parents raised him to understand the notion of consequences, so he just says what (he thinks) sounds good in the moment.
