WHEN SOMEONE SAYS THEY LIVE IN TORONTO, BUT REALLY LIVE IN MARKHAM
I want to reblog this entire blog, it is the greatest thing ever.
I often refer to “when I lived in Toronto” even though I lived in Mississauga when talking to people not from the region. It’s easier to say that than explain that while Mississauga is a suburb and it abuts Toronto so closely that you can’t tell when you’ve crossed from one to the other, it is an entirely separate city.
If you and I cosplayed as a pair, what would we go as? Throw the answer into my inbox.
I think there’s something to say for pretty much every ship out there. But the names are just so unbelievably silly. I mean, come on, Spuffy?
Buffy fandom portmanteaus are the worst. THE WORST. Fuffy is my least favourite. (Great ship, baaaad name.)
If wonder if in, the future, show creators will try to make portmanteaus easier or harder?
There is no non-ridiculous way to combo Buffy, I don’t think.
Today I ran the Royal Air Force Half-Marathon as a pace bunny. I hadn’t planned on running this one but they needed a 2:30 pace bunny so I figured why not.
Being a pace bunny is fun! Although I didn’t have many customers. I ran with a couple of people who had ran the full in Fargo last weekend, someone who had an injury and a fellow from 14 Wing Greenwood who had been sort of volun-told to come out to Winnipeg and run. He’d been training for a 10k so this was surprise half-marathon for him :P
The first five km were hilarious and miserable. It started raining hard just before we started and the winds must have been gusting to 70km/h. At one point I had to stop and tie my shoe and the wind knocked me over. And when we were running on the tarmac I was having considerable trouble just moving forward into it.
The “To Finish” bunny caught up to us and joined our group, although there were probably still 5 or 6 people stretch out behind.
Once we got onto Ness and Hamilton things were much better and the rain mostly stopped. At about the half-way point, most of my group pulled ahead (including the To Finish Bunny) and then it was just me and the fellow from 14 Wing.
The turn around point was in front of my high school! John Taylor Collegiate represent!
At mile 10, my running companion had to drop back (he eventually finished around 2:40).
I finished a bit slow (2:31:47) because we’d been running too fast most of the race so I slowed down for the last three miles. I guess my GPS was a bit out because when I got to 2 miles left, I checked my time and then set a pace to finish at more or less 2:30 on the nose. I didn’t feel too bad, though, since there was no one following me :P
I was thoroughly soaked and as soon as I stopped moving I began to shiver. Today felt much colder than the Hypo Half :P
… And now for an unrelated cute bunny post.

Too young? I’m possibly too old to know who that is. Although the cosplayer herself looks like my friend Bianca.

For the confused people on my dash, Eurovision is an event where all the European countries have a musician and a song and they all battle it out like the Hunger Games. Only one will come out alive. They will become King of Europe and control the EU and everyone has to speak that language for the year until next Eurovision.
This makes so much more sense than our stupid, first-past-the-post electoral system!

So this guy was in our parking lot at work yesterday when we were heading home. I wonder if he was doing his parallel parking test at the driver testing place next door?
What speed do you read at? (Remember, it’s not a race!)
“You read 371 words per minute. That makes you 48% faster than the national average.”
You read 445 words per minute.
That makes you 78% faster than the national averageYou read 444 words per minute. That makes you 78% faster than the national average.
You read 237 words per minute.
That makes you 5% slower than the national average.
Oh god, I’m about the same speed as a 7th/8th grader….. /sobs
You read 419 words per minute.
That makes you 68% faster than the national average.
k
You read 600 words per minute.
That makes you 140% faster than the national average.o ok
You read 380 words per minute.
That makes you 52% faster than the national average.ah i thought i had gotten slower
You read 477 words per minute.
That makes you 91% faster than the national average.
oooh cool.
542 words per minute, but, as my housemate has accused me of before, if it’s an unfamiliar piece, my comprehension goes to hell. Failed the first one (which read like Orwell, I think) and aced the second, which was the opening page of Alice in Wonderland.
… um… 659 wpm, 164% faster than the national average. I did it three times (no cheating) because I thought it had to be mistaken and it stayed about the same.
I closed the tab so I dunno what the percentage is but 924wpm.
116 words per minute.
That makes you 54% slower than the national average.
