Oh, he wasn't comparing TO and NYC.
One of the TO forumers, I forget who it was, posted a video of him (Giles Coren) ranting about Toronto fashion. We all chatted about it for a few pages of some thread, I forget which - I assumed you guys were in on it too and knew what I was talking about.

I happened to say I was glad he wasn't coming here - because, presumably, someone that famous wouldn't be. But then he did - which was flattering, but terrifying. That's why it was nice that
he didn't have too much bad to say.
That's where that reference came from.

And, Rousseau... I'm free to overdo the personal anecdotes if I wish, just as you're free to be absolutely miserable every other post to every other person if you wish. Personally, I'd rather a forum with more personal anecdotes than... whatever this conversation is - but it takes all kinds.
