Best 30 sec. you'll see all day.
.@CAASCO What in the name of find all the photos with stoplights is going on with your emerg line?? Needed urgent assistance yesterday on a deserted back country road and ended up in a battle with your "Mindbot." This isn't the CAA I signed up for. 😡😡😡
The 3D artists at the weather channel deserve a raise for this insane visual
Now watch this, and then realize forecasts are now predicting up to 15 ft of storm surge in certain areas on the western coast of Florida
A friend found this little chap at Union Station in Toronto last week. Can we boost the post & get this little toy back to its owner, who is probably missing it terribly?

Update 3/3: So in the last 2 weeks, thanks to @Bell and @Rogers, I've lost 4 days of work (phone calls, tech visits, NO FREAKING #INTERNET), most of my sanity, and all my self-respect. #FML As long as @Bell and @Rogers are the only choices, we're all screwed. @blogTO
Update, part 2/3: But just today, I discovered @Rogers won't let me out of my contract without a penalty, even though the @Bell rep assured me they'd take care of all that for me. (They didn't and won't.) So now, I have to go back to @Rogers. "Sorry, not sorry." #RogeredAgain
Update: So here is the reality of #internet & #cell "service" in Canada. After 2 days of the latest @Rogers outage, in desperation I tried to switch to @Bell. Took them 10 days to get me set up. ... #RogeredAgain (1/3)
Now more than 30h without internet, and @Rogers is still busily “detecting” the current massive #outage. Good sleuthing, boys! Have you tried turning your bot off and turning it on again? How many fingers am I holding up? #RogeredAgain
Spoiler alert: the site just says “TBD,” as in “To be discussed.” I’d like to discuss the work I’ve missed, and how much I’m looking forward to the @Bell technician arriving here on Friday morning to hook me up to some actual working Internet. @RogeredAgain #outage
Hey Michelle! I can understand being upset when there's an issue and wanting to find out the details. The announcement and information on the outage can be found here: communityforums.rogers.com/t… ^EY
Actually, the sticky tape and safety pins probably won’t do any good, because my theory is that @Rogers fibre cables are actually made of noodles. Ooh… noodles! Maybe there’s a good recipe onli—— Oh wait. #RogeredAgain#outage@blogTO
So day 2 of no @Rogers internet. They keep on “detecting” an outage in my area. Excellent detective work! 🙄 So now we all wait excitedly for the box of sticky tape and safety pins to arrive at the site where their cable was cut… @blogTO#RogeredAgain#outage
@CTVToronto@680NEWS@globalnewsto@Rogers there seems to be a large disruption of rogers services since yesterday throughout toronto yet no one seems to be reporting on it. Rogers says its a cut cable but outage territory makes no sense. Why is no one reporting on it
