That's............really sad.

I'm sad. I went to feed the ducks and there was one with what looks like a very broken foot. Unless I were to somehow catch him myself I don't think anyone in my area would go to try and help him. Seems like a situation where people would be like "Just let nature take its course".

Animal protective services perhaps?

This is what I found. Unless I could catch the duck myself it doesn't seem like it's getting any help. 

It can still fly and was pretty lively, so maybe it will be able to manage? It just hurts me a lot when I can do anything to help an animal.

I love etymology :

- Good God, what is that?
- No Idea ! It looks like some kind of huge armoured animal !
- What shall we call it ?
- Something magestic, to concord with his grace and size.
- Hmmm...
- NOSE-TOOTH !
- Oh no, he woke up.
- Just ignore him.
- NOSE-TOOTH !
- He won't give up will he ?
- I'm afraid not.
- TOOTHY NOSEY NOSE-TOOTH !!
- Ok, ok. Calm down, we'll call it that.
- Are you sure ?
- Yes, we've done it before, just get out the Greek dictionary.
- Ok ?
- Trust me; look up "nose" and "tooth" and stick them together. It'll please him, and sound scientific enough for the community back home.

And so was born the name "rhinoceros".

Agreed.

Waiting for a phone call suuuuucks.

*Steam tells me Sister Location is relased*

Watching the presidential debate.

It's laughable. They ask questions, but none of them are answering the questions. Not surprised but it's so sad.

They asked Trump about the sexual assault boasting tape, and he answered that he would crush ISIS.
They asked Hillary about whether her behaviour was a good example for kids, and she answered about how she wants to work for all Americans.

The moderators should have mini-tasers if they stray off the question, because so far nothing has been on subject.

Edit : They're asking questions asked from social media. I'm hoping for a Harambe question.

Edit 2 : I'm playing a debate drinking game. Take a shot every time a candidate talks about a specific measure they'll take for the benefit of the country, or talk about what concrete things they can do for the country, rather than sling muck at the other candidate. I think I'm going to stay thirsty.

Edit 3 : I'm switching between this and the Jays game. #MakeBaseballGreatAgain

Edit 4 : The heavy artillery has already been deployed, which is surprising. Sexual assault boast, Bill Clinton allegations, deleted emails, primary fraud. And Trump has already accused the moderators of being against him. No idea what they have left for the last hour and a half.

It's ridiculous. I am getting a few laughs for stuff like "I'm a gentleman, let her go first".

A lot of Canadians go to the US for big operations ? I'm sorry w-w-w-w-whaaaat ?

That gentleman comment was golden.

"You're going to have plans that are so good." I'm sold *sniff*

Edit - The Muslim question - this gon be gud.

Edit 2 - We're playing a new drinking game. Every time Trump sniffs, and every time Hillary talks in an overly general way, take a shot. Gonna get rekt.

Edit 3 - "If I was president, Captain Khan would have been alive today." Noooo you can't say that !
I must say I agree with the fact that they seem to interupt Trump more often, Hillary is also answering off topic.

Edit 4 - "She's raising your taxes really high." Mean lady. "China has a GDP of 7%." Welp, first time I've heard GDP being measured in percentages without a reference point.

Edit 5 - "I pay thousands of taxes." This guy has the grammar of a high-schooler.

Edit 6 - "I worked very hard." Most compelling argument I've heard all day from Clinton.

Edit 7 - "We signed a treaty to reduce nuclear weapons." I'm picturing cute little mini-nukes.

Edit 8 - They keep saying "Assyrian". They're going to have trouble taking the Assyrian Empire down... it collapsed around 600BC.

Edit 9 - "I'll give economics to people." Brilliant handle of English.

Edit 10 - N'awwwww that last question is the best one of the evening ! HUG IT OUT.

My friend went on vacation to Portugal to visit family, and from the second she got off the plane to the second she got on the one to come home, she was constantly asked "are y'all ok over there?" Everyone wants to know if Trump is really running and if people really like him, or if it's a hoax/tv show. She kept having to tell him "Unfortunately, yes. To both questions."

Etc.

Etc.

Someone dubbed over past of the debate and made it look like they were singing that song from Dirty Dancing!

The Audience live reaction in the Presidential Debate was golden I sincerely expected the crowd to do pun chants.

...I just don't understand relationships. My mom told me about how her friend's husband has cheated on her a few times and now a waitress at their restaurant claims he's sleeping with her. Plus, he seems kind of stupid in that he didn't get the restaurant inspected before buying and its just been a money pit. She hates living out there, bitches about him all the time, but still stays with him.

Then this other girl, who I realized was no good pretty fast, complains about her boyfriend constantly as well to everyone she knows, but seems like she's going to stay with him because he gives her a ton of free stuff. So... Basically she's a prostitute in my eyes. If what she says gets back to him I don't understand why he's so foolish that he believes her when she says "Oh, I was just venting! I love you!".

I think I'm really just content to be by myself.
