    Why do we choose dark coat colours for winter?

    Torontonians are not particularly bold, fashion-wise. I think that's a big reason for all the black. My winter coat is red, like a stop sign. Don't-run-me-over-you-bastards Red.

    Metrolinx: Presto Fare Card

    I have mine in an inner pocket of my bag -- I just hold my bag at the Presto reader and it works. Some of those readers can be really sensitive! I don't even have to roll down my car window to get into my parking garage.

    Metrolinx: Presto Fare Card

    Someone's already done it: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.bitbucket.efung.prestoreader&hl=en It just does card balance and transaction history.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Ugh. Ford's ridiculous framing of the situation shouldn't be validated. You can't reason with the unreasonable. This just says to me that there should be *some* basic hurdles for people to clear before running for council. You could at the very least eliminate people who haven't read the Code...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    If you have a Toronto Public Library card, you can access the Canadian Newsstand database online: http://www.torontopubliclibrary.ca/detail.jsp?Entt=RDMEDB0022&R=EDB0022 They have articles from most Canadian papers, going back decades. (I'd look, but I don't have my card on me at the...

    H5 & H6 Final Run

    It actually looks more like they just changed the colours in Photoshop.

    Metrolinx: Presto Fare Card

    A similar thing happened to me. I put some money on the card in anticipation of a transit trip, but ended up not using it. Totally forgot about it for a whole month, until I suddenly received an email that said "E-Purse load confirmed" that looked exactly like every email they send you in...

    Roads: Highway 401 Widening - Highway 8 to Highway 410 (MTO, U/C, Planned)

    Dude, you are just not paying attention. There is a highway 5 sign right at Hurontario & Dundas. I'm pretty sure it's still there. I also passed by one the other day at Dundas & Erin Mills Pkwy, though it's hard to see on Google Street View. It's on the eastbound side, just east of Erin Mills...

    Hudson's Bay Company

    Yeah, I find it particularly galling that they're now selling this shwanky image of themselves, but then you walk into your local The Bay and it's the same old disaster as usual. At least wait till the renovations are done everywhere before you start broadcasting pretensions of fanciness.

    Hudson's Bay Company

    No staff on the selling floor is right -- you could never find someone to man the cash or unlock a dressing room when needed. What's even more annoying is when you approach a point of sale only to be told that they're an "in-store boutique" and can't take your money because that thing you want...

    Mississauga (non-mall) Retail

    Oh wow, does this mean there's a Galleria supermarket coming there too? It's the exact same logo.
