Yo, this is mark. I’m not sure if I need to introduce myself, since I think the only people who regularly read this site are myself, Shannen and Dan. Anyway, I was drunkenly asked on Saturday night if I wanted to be a guest-blogger (though I prefer the term “columnist”, as it sounds more professional, and could therefore be used to round-out my woefully inadequate resume), so here I am.
Anyway, I’ll contribute the occasional rant when I can. Future rant topics may or may not include:
- Why Seals are Assholes
- Why the Juno Awards are embarassing
- The stupidity (and addictiveness) of Deal or No Deal
- The uselessness of the 1% GST deduction
- The Scotiabank Place parking situation
- Patrick Elias’s STDs
- The guy at work who drives an Aztec
You get the idea. As Frank Costanza said, “I got a lot of problems with you people! And now you’re gonna hear about it!”. Should be fun.
Last 5 songs heard on my iPod: “Stop” – Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, “Shaking Paper” – Cat Power, “No Life Singed Her” – Pavement, “Hoppipolla” – Sigur Ros, “The Masterplan” – Oasis
Shan - Mark,
You are the best guest blogger we’ve ever had.

Gary - Mark, I look forward to your list of topic discussions. I caution you though, it’s not a good idea to rant about coworkers online, even if they drive an Aztec. I saw a blog recently where the blogger was recently unemployed because she talked about the office people in less than a good light. For some reason, employers don’t like the published, online ranting about the office. Go figure.
Carole - Hey Mark,
My name is Carole. I’ve been a long time friend of Shannen and in more recent years Dan.
I thought I would be the first to add a comment to your rant, and I also wanted to let you know that I too frequent this site. I enjoy the rants, and I will look forward to possibly hearing about “Why Seals are Assholes”. I am oddly intrigued about the guy who drives the Aztec as well.
Cheers,
Carole
mark - holy crap! readers!
shan: i’ll try not to dissapoint.
gary: noted. although really, if one buys an Aztek, shouldn’t one expect sarcastic/mean-spirited blog entries at ones expense? It seems reasonable.
carole: hi! I don’t know if I’m actually going to write that seals rant. People are a bit too passionate about seals right now. Maybe later.
