    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I don't know. It seems more than plausible to me that Doug, Warmo, and Rob (if he's even been consulted since he went to hospital) are just reacting to events and making stuff up minute-by-minute. Yep. Seems about right. Panic is making him even less coherent than usual. I feel bad about...

    It's not really a surprise anymore, but I'm struck by how much gold there is in Sun comments on Warmo columns, e.g.,

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I got about halfway through that and started to wonder whether I was hallucinating. Rob and Doug are stupid, thuggish and dishonest, with, obviously, enough influence that they need to be opposed seriously and energetically. When describing Warmington, there is no adverb forceful enough to...

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Ha. Very good bitter and accurate rant that turned fabulous at the very end. I can see kindly people pushing food to him using an extremely long stick, at the same time gently trying, to no avail, to explain that nobody will cut the chains until his term is really up sometime in November.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Fantastically funny and creepy! Almost perfect, but -0.000001% for the patios/patois typo and/or autocorrect fail. Thanks/nausea in equal parts re the Mimi flashback. From TorStar: Yeah, but they love to engage with the part-time communist activists, no ... ?

    Haha! Super-super-great line buried in a super-great post. I think that line could be recycled a few times between now and late October.

    That's excellent, both verbally and visually! But you're not going to win on UT. By the time we're done being all-inclusive on your list of slurs, you're going to need a vanishingly small font ... :p

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I'm a 50+ straight guy. Rob losing his shit over Hudak, the flag, and Sochi, his past stupid losses of shit over the same flag, serial evasion of Pride events, and sit-down strike against applauding the World Pride effort are very near the top of my list about what is offensive about Rob Ford's...

    Awesome. Most political typo ever. :p

    The campaign failed just about as hard as it possibly could from Monday to Friday. Not easy to extend a streak like that from 5 days to 6.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Yeah. Air Canada, um, enabled me to watch most of seasons 1-2 on various cross-Canada flights. It would be interesting to force Rob to view one of the tougher episodes and comment on it at the end. Also, somehow Doug would have to watch both the show and Rob's reaction, but not actually be...

    God damn. Can't be easy for Mammo to be flip-flopping second-by-second about whether to be purely crazy, crudely offensive, or take the repellent middle ground between the two. As you suggest, what comes out of RoFo's yap is appallingly similar.

    I'm pretty sure Rob Ford and his sobriety coach could quickly solve a few crimes if they put their heads together. (Snark aimed at RoFo, not you, Roy's Square. The TV show seems interesting, as does your observation.)

    I like the gross-out humour. I am reminded of the (fictional, thank God) Spinal Tap drummer whose cause of death was choking on "someone else's vomit."

    Reddit is, uh, imperfect, but the story title Sick of Rob Ford? Cleanse your palate with this timeline of the Mammoliti fundraiser scandal is an awesome blend of wit, fatigue, and bitterness. The actual story linked to by Reddit is detailed and dismaying, worth having a look at.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Haha, yep. But it's Yahoo, not Yee-haw. The options here are: (1) get out of town until Stampede is over; (2) Eat The Pancakes. That's not quite literally true, but it's damn close.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    Rob Ford's Return (June 30, 2014 - ) Thanks. I totally agree that all should watch, Sun clicks or no Sun clicks. I used to be skeptical about all the what-drug-is-Rob-on-in-the-interview speculation on this thread. Not so much, anymore; have at it, amateur pharmacologists. Also...

    Joe, how does it feel to be you? Kinda tough when Doug's fingers cross the small-intestine/stomach boundary, no? At that moment, it's hard to convince yourself that you're the independent mover and shaker you'd like us to believe in, isn't it?

    Daniel Dale is great! I wish I had the same level of wit, transparency, combined self-deprecation and self-respect, and urge to get the facts out quickly and clearly.

    Rob Ford's Toronto

    I'm not going to argue very hard against that. Especially, would not for a second try to push a no-I'm-pretty-sure-he's-connected-to-reality angle! But can you think of any high-profile elected official ever who's had so many metaphorical high-speed heavyweight bullets just bounce off his...
