Greatest Commercial Failure of ALL TIME!

So yeah, yeah, yeah, been away, blah, blah, blah...moving on.

So, a while back I posted a GREAT Picture of the Day.
As stated, the sign belonged to a store here in our Nations Capital.

The store is called The Lil' Stool House. As indicated in my last post about this store, they don't only sell stools, but also other sitting apparatus' and floor coverings. Not only that, they're constantly dishing out a steaming dose of commercial failure.

The other day I was informed by, none other than Grand Master Awesome that there was yet another side-splitingly hilarious sign outside their store. So, this morning I decided to take a detour and head over to check it out. Being that I'm a woman, and completely oblivious to my surroundings when I'm behind the wheel of a car, I was unable to find said signage. So I pulled into their parking lot, trying to get a better look around, when I noticed this little claim on their door:


Completely satisfied with my discovery, I decided to head home. As I was leaving the parking lot, I noticed another large sign post. Hark! It was the sign G.M.A. had clued me on to! Allah be praised, my detour was not in vain.


Ladies and Gentlemen: I give you, the GREATEST sign in all of Ottawa...


BEHOLD!

Welp, it's come to my attention that my day-to-day tends to amuse the throngs of individuals who participate in Renee's Story Time *cough* and therefore, I will use the potentially constructive hours of my day to waste recounting my goings-ons... That being said, on with the show. Everyday, I bus for an hour to school. Ironically enough, I live less than 20 minutes away from my school, but the theory behind the extra time according to my mother is something along the lines of gas, or Jesus... maybe gassy Jesus...moving on... Everyday, for the most part , something amusing happens within that hour on the bus. Whether it's the over zealous Universal-Pagan-Mystery-Man, He-Man Woman-Hating Muslim Senior, or Bingo Lady, that hour everyday generally proves to be worth every minute. Today, for example. All Girls Field Trip Day! Ah yes. The little ladies of L'Academie Jeanne D'arc were on the road today. I initially assumed they were heading to Mooneys Bay. After passing t...

HAPPY SHANNON TWEED DAY!!!

Happy 1st Annual Unofficial Shannon Tweed Day!!! Worth Celebrating While attending a court hearing, Ottawa City Mayor Larry O'Brian was out and acting Mayor Doug Thompson was in. During his reign, the Mayor in Action planned to declare July 15th as Shannon Tweed Day in accordance with her visit to Ottawa with partner Gene Simmons and his band KISS. Encouraging us to party ev-er-y day since 1972 Unfortunately city councilors snubbed the idea as official holidays are reserved for long standing citizens and people who have made significant contributions to the community. According to reports, Ms. Simmons Tweed was not offended by the snub and took it all with a grain of salt. While Shannon is a Canadian native and did live in Ottawa for several years, she is now an American Citizen as most of her body parts are from across the border. Acme Despite the Day not becoming an official holiday, the citizens of Ottawa, myself included, have definitely taken it upon themselves to celebr...

Animals and the people who love them.

The Yuletide season is upon us. For the better prepared portion of our community, you've finished your x-mas shopping. For the bulk of my readers, you probably haven't even begun. For most people, x-mas shopping involves wracking your brain for -the- gift that will compliment your loved ones. For others, a last minute dash to the dollar store will suffice. Then there are the people that shop for their pets. These are not only the people that buy for their pets, but also give from their pets as well. From: Mittenz Major corporations make millions off of these chumps pet owners by milking them for everything their worth. From holiday themed pet toys, to pictures for your best friends with Santa Claws (heh heh) Today I received an e-flyer from PetSmart about some handy-dandy last minute gift ideas for my pets. I am the disgruntled owner of two disgusting cats. Regardless of the fact that they are ungrateful bastards, I wouldn't buy them presents strictly on the principle t...
