What kind of dim witted mouth breather do you have to be to do something like that?
The thought process seems to be that as long as it's contained in a bag it isn't littering. Mystifying!

CBC Newfoundland is all about the Donald lately.





In our old English, Trump at various times meant "fart", "bad omen", or "good luck" - all three of which apply at some point in history to the now-abandoned islands, which were a shitty fishing village, then a prosperous mining village.

yes, yes. This has happened numerous times. a nasty bag of tricks left on the curb by my house, or in between my house and that of my neighbor's. WTF???

It's like: "Hmmm, now that I think about it, I really don't feel like carrying this bag o' dog shit. Bah, I will just leave it here!"

The other part is the thought process / excuse that there must be magical poop fairies that will come pick it up for you now that it's in a bag.

Fart and bad omen seem like apt descriptions.

If this is what newfoundlanders consider ugly then I'm convinced that Newfoundland is the most beautiful place on earth

I think it was posted more for the cliff's vague resemblance to Trump.

Yeah, . It's not ugly - it's just Trump has been a big topic in this thread.

According to the sign out front, it is "Canada's oldest surviving motion picture house". Yup.

Beaverton, Ontario, the location of it, is contention as quite possibly the ugliest town in Canada if you ask me.

its beautiful landmarks include the following;









The south shore of Lake Simcoe is generally considered to be one of the poorest, most racist parts of Southern Ontario. The entire area is a gigantic shithole.

Wow I've never seen such dreary street view images. Normally they're always taken when it's sunny.

The Laurentians north of Montreal feature numerous lakes and rolling hills. A beautiful region. Unfortunately most of the urban landscape resembles something like this.


https://www.google.ca/maps/@45.8919308,-...WybUPSlYusPnBGrDLE4jA!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

Quick question. How does one post streetview captures into images. I feel like such a dork.
