by Sean Orr | More tall buildings touted for Vancouver skyline. I love the nowhere to go but up mantra, except that here it means creating investments rather than spaces for people to live in.
Bad heroin hits Vancouver streets. Wait…does that mean that the heroin before was good?
Dementia tsunami set to strike baby boomers. Hello Cleveland! We’re Dementia Tsunami! We’ve got T-shirts in the van!
Downtown Eastside activists protest over-height condo plans. OK, so maybe gentrification is happening. Shit.
Tax cheats on WikiLeaks’ hitlist. It’s kind of unfortunate that we need Wikileaks to catch these guys, and it makes one wonder if they’re even trying. I do, however, like the idea of rich people “quaking in their boots”.
Golden Globe stars love fancy Richmond vomit bags. Are we that starved for attention that we need to mention every single connection to Hollywood? Perhaps this was just a clever way to make me puke…
golden golem that you edeavour to one day ascend to be aside, leave poor richmond mothers bee, honey. Had Tommy Noble or Johnny Hammersticks every hummmed a chorus of the musical diahrea that is Twassels your facade would crack pipe like a DtES whore
Oh noes you hurt my feeling.
bill bissett lives.
“Golem of the DTEs ”
plain speak as the great polish investigator Banacek so clealy stated “a sore thumb in hand is better that one in the bum” bad heroin that is just another markting scheme like $1.49 day HASTINGS!

(de – monied -zone)
just a typical broad stroke attack on the working class, not everyone who protests gentrification is a welfare bum junkie living on handouts and refusing to work, some of us have permanent disabilities, addictions, childhood trauma’s and other issues that make seeking and keeping work an obstacle, I hate walking around my hood and seeing all these yuppies and urbane hipster 20somethings taking over thinking they can call this town their own. Take your iphones, 500$ tattoos and facial hair back to your suburban homes and leave the neighborhood to the lumpenproletariat.
Um…my tats were $499 and my iPhone is the old model. Represent.
Good call, Terry, because no one was living here before you. You are the Alpha and the Omega.

Omg,
Money shot LoL
