Close, sweetie. You were really close. Now go lie down before you hurt yourself.
Girl points to picture of Andy Warhol in an article about Andy Warhol with the headline "Andy Warhol."

Hahaha this one is still making me laugh
6:41... don't be a douchebag by making a debate out of nothing. You're not cool.
6:36 - LMAO Its too true
Yep. Don't brag about selling your soul to Satan.
if you consider spending the next thirty years staring out an office window and worrying about how much money some lame-ass bank makes an "awesome career"....more power to you....i guess
Is Clay Aiken gay, for real?
Clay Aiken is GAY? I never saw that coming! He was always such a chick magnet.
Pointless Trivia question: An album was released with the song "Andy Warhol" in the 1970s. If you can guess the artist and the album, you get OAW points. If not, you seriously should stop listening to Clay Aiken.
12:17 - yes, because we all know that invesment banking or corproate finance are the ONLY aspects of business.
Idiot.
well, no, they aren't...but those tend to be the ones that Ivey snobs brag about the most...
12:30.....
David Bowie wrote that song (though Dana Gillespie also performed it)...
the album it first appeared on was "Hunky Dory" (1971)...
(yes, I am a geek....)
HA HA! That's way to funny! No Clay Aiken is not gay! He's not even close to being gay! Gah, get a life people!
(yes, I am a geek....)
Yes, you are. Also, you are probably gay. Like Clay Aiken. Fag.
2.14 Excellent and well done! As for the rest of you, don't call people with good taste in music (i.e. David Bowie) a fag!
Why don't we just call all those closeted homosexuals 'gay' like they are. For example Clay Aiken, Orlando Bloom, Tom Cruise, Clinton Stacey,etc.
It is a tough competition between Orlando Bloom and Clay Aiken to see who is the bigger queer. Orlando is a pretty boy who likes to dress up in tights, while Aiken is just really homo
Hahaha this reminds me of the time that Conan O'Brien presented an award to an absent Clay Aiken, to apologize for all the gay jokes. the award was titled "Guy Awesome You".
The funny thing is that women still have crushes on these closet cases. I guess it goes back to the adage about wanting what you cannot have. Or they just don't know any better.
What is the deal with all the above homophobes? The issue of not only disrespecting homosexuals, but those others deem to be gay is at best childish if not bigotted.
less homophobia, more bowie love.
(and before any of you call him a fag, i suggest you check out iman)

Go back to Russia commie.
12:14 -
Communists, at least the Russian ones, were all about homophobia. Homosexuals were also sent to gulags along with the other "enemies of the state".
I think you're confusing being open-minded with totalitarianism again.....even if the two are polar opposites.

True. However, I could think of any other example to use, and I really wanted to call the guy a Commie. You can see my dilemma, no?

Not a bad idea.
I think you're confusing being open-minded with totalitarianism again
Absolutely not. The former is a nonsense, while the latter is the most effective and desirable form of government.
Orlando Bloom is hot. I hope he is gay.
Damn fags are allowed to have sex without criminal punishment in the States now. Reserect the Sodomy law!(In Canada too)
That is why I am going to vote for Haskett and therefore the Honourable Stephen Harper. The Torie will clamp down on the gay agenda that the NDP pushes
I am Catholic who is attending a Catholic University named Kings. I am appalled at the disrepect held by most students for the Catholic doctrine that so few ever extoll. It makes me furious to see people supporting the gay agenda in a non-secular instituion that in no way should support such thinking.
oh god... here comes the bible thumpers...
I like how ppl took 7:35 at face value, and did not recognize it as an obvious troll

2:31's a commie!

Uh buddy, as much as you want to deny it, Kings is a essentially a secular instituion with some window dressing.In running Kings with the level of orthodoxy that you seem to desire, it would begin to discriminate against the many non-catholics that attend said school. Many of these students - while maybe not Catholic - believe in things such as respect, acceptance, and compassion. Coincidently these people may support gay rights as Jesus did for others who were shunned from society. In essence the teachings of God have been corrupted over the years to point whereby extreme religion, now contradicts everything Jesus stood for.
2:31's a commie!
Absolutely not; I'm a Fascist.

Or give me a fucking break. As much as I hate Christian (and I do), you Communists are 1000x worse.
Damn commie bastards secularizing everything in sight. The world is not a fair place, why should we try to persue this egalitarian agenda with such gusto? I voted conservative because too many people are getting a free ride, and the sympathy of the public under the doctrine of political correctness. The Conservative party is the only one with the insight to know that much like poor people choosing to be poor, gay people choose to be gay.
6:12 - I honestly feel sorry for you if you realy think that way. You are patheticly ignorant and seem to be cold as a hockey rink in January.
6:12 - Even if gay people did choose to be gay, who the fuck really cares? How does that impact any of us heterosexuals?
In order to ensure our continuing stability, the Parliament of Canada will be reorganized into the FIRST... CANADIAN... EMPRIE! For a safe, and secure society!
What's an emprie?
10:20,
nice Star Wars reference, and a very good comparison to Stephen Harper's fascist regime.

Fuck you. Harper is a Conservative, which, while much preferable over a typical leftist (Communist) is far from being a Fascist. If we had a true Fascist government, Canada would begin to resemble a respectable country again.
^ I'd take living in an Empire over living the wussy-state Canada has become any day.
6:12 is a douchebag. Why do any of you people care about who fucks who? The only thing i do NOT fully agree with is the pride parade. Homosexuals fight for equality and yet all they're doing is emphasizing the differences and drawing attention to the fact that they are, in fact, not how the majority of the population is. Stop begging for attention, and live your lives however the fuck you want to live them. Running around half naked is not attractive... especially in a public space where children who are not yet mature enough to understand homosexuality, and sexuality in general, can occupy. Have some fucking respect for the community as well as yourselves.
Darth Harperious wants to destroy our freedom.
We should start to call him "Steve-O Harper", simply because of the stupid stunts that moron pulls.
Why do any of you people care about who fucks who?
If such actions only affected the fucker and fuckee, I wouldn't care. However, the implications for society are much broader than that.
^ yeah, like when I fuck your mom, she has no time for her other visitors...

Yeah like the Million Man March. You want equality so stop EXPLOITING the fact that you're black. Clearly, the way to equality is through *BLENDING IN* to the crowd. (Obvious sarcasm.)
I think the point of the Pride Parade is not to emphasize their differences, but to show that they're "proud" of such differences, and aren't going to hide away in uniformity and their closets. No?
If being gay is a natural phenomenon (ie. - not a choice), then why is it something to be proud of? It's not like gay people did anything special or had to accomplish something in order to qualify as a homosexual. It's just the way they are.
I mean, more power to them for being unashamed of themselves. But why does that sense of personal dignity have to go hand-in-hand with a public event who's explicit purpose seems to be to rub that difference in the face of the general public?
Why should being gay give you a free pass to flaunt public decency codes during your Parades? Pardon my bigotry, I'm just not a big fan of seeing fat naked dudes (queer or otherwise) walking down public streets with their junk flapping in the breeze, telling me that I'm intolerant.
Gay pride is mostly about not being ashamed to be yourself, but also a celebration of how far society has come in changing its perceptions of a population that has experienced a lot of prejudice. Personally, fat naked dudes don't give me anything to be proud about, and the Pride Parade scares me. Maybe it's not only about being gay - maybe it's about challenging the social rules of our culture. Then again, maybe it's just an excuse to get naked in public. I think you raise a good point.
If Stephen Harper had a majority government, he would be able to flex his muscle in banning all gay events. This is exactly why I am going to vote for Dianne Haskett. She actually had the guts to stand up to "the homosexual agenda". These courageous actions are needed to help save the marriages and the family unit as we know it today.

This quote goes to show you that the Conservaive party is in fact comprised of moronic rednecks,and not people with a 3-digit IQ number

Hey I can call my momma from up here. HEY MA GIT OFF THE DANG ROOF, and let's vote Conservative!
8:41
Yeah, if only those moronic rednecks were smart and acted out of enlightened self-interest... like the 2 out of 5 Canadians who don't bother to vote in federal elections at all.
(And as I'm sure you're aware, it's young people who are the group most likely to fail to exercise their franchise. Canadian universities must be proud of the way they keep churning out one MENSA candidate after another, eh?)
Hahaha I wouldn't exactly call what propels conservatives to the polls "enlightened self-interest". But rather a combination of jealous resentment and perhaps a couple shots of bourbon. Lets remember that the conservative party is not known for being a party of well educated, success stories (e.g. Stockwell Day, Preston Manning, Peter MacKay, etc), but rather angry simpletons
It is deplorable how the CPC tries to take advntage of the lesser educated demographics, by making promises to lowwer taxes. They bank on the naivety of these folks, to carry out an agenda that actually raises taxes (with the GST as an exception). It is no wonder that the CPC is anti-aortion, because they want future hinterland voters.
4:19
Perhaps I was obtuse. I wasn't trying to suggest that conservatives make their voting decisions out of enlightened self-interest. I just wanted to point out that, regardless of their reasons for doing so, at least the moronic rednecks - drunk, angry and resentful in your characterization - are smart enough to figure out how to impose their viewpoints on the rest of the country. (Hint: it's by voting)
I'm not particularly interested in slandering people, I just find it amusing that a group constantly derided by my peers as being uneducated, moronic, naive, etc. has still been able to get their choice into 24 Sussex. By contrast, what have the 40% of non-voters received for their courageous political apathy? A sense of smug superiority?
And 4:19, please. I love slagging politicians as much as the next person but it's not like the Conservatives are markedly worse than the other options out there. Unless you're going to argue that Carolyn Bennett and Alfonso Gagliano are now somehow models for deep thinking and ethics, respectively. Politicians are a shady and untrustworthy breed by nature, let's not pretend it's based on partisan affiliation.

Lets not forget that like anyother demographic, a segement of the 40% of Canadians who do not vote are indeed part of the conservative fold. These people have only succeded at installing a conservative government by a wisker. The Harper Tories are curently enjoying what will likely prove to be a short tenure in office. They were elected in a slim minority format after 13 years of trying to do so (while having to merge two parties in the process). Today, only a matter of months after being elected they currently trail in the polls behind the Liberals, who at this point do not yet have a leader. The bottom line is that the Harper Tories represents only a short swing of the political pedulum into blue territory.
I agree with 7:25. Canadians are finally starting to wakeup to the fact that Conservatives do not relect the values of everyday Canadians. The average Canadian is interested in a party that is fiscally conservative while socially moderate (protecting family values, etc). The Tories in no way satisify these criteria as they lead us down a road to deficits and the least bit interested in protecting family values (by trying to institutionalize discrimination, bigottry, etc).
At least the Conservative party garnered way more votes than the loserly NDP. As powerful as this bunch of washed-up hippies think they are, they control less than 30 of all seats in Canada. Jack Layton should stop bragging about having candidates in all 308 districts. One can't help but realize that the NDP loses over 99% of all races.
10:09 You are a typical conservative, in that you must be a fucking moron. At the very least you are numerically illiterate. 29 / 308 DOES NOT EQUAL 1%.
Hahaha Apparently if Darwin is correct, 10:09 and his/her fellow rednecks should come up to speed in the next couple thousand years.
10:09's abhorrent math does not change the fact that the NDP still lose more than 9 times out of 10. Hardly a stealler track record even at a time of relative popularity for Jack Layton and the gang.
Yeah, yeah the NDP are pathetic losers, etc. The real heart of this debate has been whether or not Clay Aken is gay. So far the consensus seems to be that he is in fact Gay. What gives you peple the right to erroneously label another human being??? It is time to grow up, and respect the dignity of other human beings.
Who's it that being erroneously labeled? Clay Aken or Jack Layton?
Dear Mr. 7:57, your Hippie Ideas are unwelcome where I come from. The concept of labelling some who IS homosexual, homosexual is not only being truthful, but also acceptable by any standards. People might label myself as a conservative. In doing so they are simply telling the truth.
It is time to grow up, and respect the dignity of other human beings.
Yes, but some would argue that such a definition (i.e. "human beings") is too liberally applied in some instances...
I like the title of this submission.
