Over the last six months or so, Facebook and social media has been overloaded with videos of systemic racial injustice laid bare. In neighbourhoods, grocery stores, restaurants and more, people of colour have been uploading footage of the people who've called the police on them for seemingly no reason. Just…

Ladies and gentlemen, pizza is a lot of things. Delicious, cheesy, saucy, versatile, portable; the list goes on - I could go on all day about my love for pizza - but one thing that this legendary dish is not is useful. Sure, pizza is delicious, and useful in the…

We've all got different tastes and palates, but while the internet is inundated with fiery debates on the merits of mushrooms and pineapple on pizza (for the record, it's an emphatic no from me on both counts), I think we can all agree on the fact that chocolate is awesome.…

I don't know about you guys, but I think that getting a well-priced decent haircut is one of life's most difficult challenges. Finding a job and a relationship that make you feel good is hard, sure, but finding a person who can cut your hair is a bond for life…

I don't think it's too much of an exaggeration to say that Kristen Bell is the absolute best. Just in case you didn't catch her in Veronica Mars or Forgetting Sarah Marshall (in which case, you're totally missing out because she's great in both of those), you were admiring her…

When it comes to points of discussion or triggers of outrage, there's no more volatile arena of debate that the various social media channels of Kim Kardashian. It feels like every week on her Instagram story or Twitter feed, there's something new for us to talk about, and while it's…

Every January, I get a pretty solid reminder that although I'd like to be a stronger, more disciplined person, I end every December and begin the New Year as same old me. Over the years, I've tried to set myself New Year's Resolutions, and they've slowly grown more vague, existential…

The English language is full of beautiful phrases, but is there any phrase that can bring you greater happiness than "free food for life"? I'll answer that: no, there isn't. Food, of course, is awesome, and when you don't have to pay for it, that layer of removed guilt unlocks…

2018 was a long, dark and difficult year, but toward the end of it, we saw some hope at the end of the tunnel. I already turn to Oreo in times of trouble, and toward the back end of last year, those inimitable sandwich cookies gave me something to look…
