The sun is out in Vancouver and with the Sun comes the people exposing as much flesh as they dare to soak in that much needed Vitamin D. It was a long winter, it always is, but this winter something changed here in the depths of Mount Pleasant.  Lots of new people moved in this winter, which in itself is not unusual, but its who has moved in.  Not the usual immigrants, criminals, weirdos, hippies, sketchy musicians, paranoid schizophrenics, starving artists, poor families, single mothers and the usual wonderful riff raff that used to be here. No, they are being displaced. Instead we now have hipsters.

Hipsters.

Young,  obnoxious Hipsters who are now traveling around in swarms.  They came out this weekend walking around with startled eyes as they finally  get out into the neighbourhood they now call home.  Yes, there are career alcoholics in the park. Yes,  Kingsgate mall is called Hellsgate Mall for a reason.  Yes, the working girls still hang out on the corners and used condoms on the lawn are not unusual.

All these things are about to be wiped out by the in surge of  low tier  wankers who are stealing all the affordable housing from the traditional neighbourhood groups because these waves of ignorant wankers leave in their wankerous wake inflated costs of living so like locusts they must constantly move on to new feeding grounds.  Behind them is not but a barren wasteland of unaffordably posh mindlessness.

You can watch it happen. As the posh cool-as-shits have been moving in the number of homeless and panhandlers has been visibly increasing. They are also visibly more distressed then before.  Have these fuck head wankers looked into the eyes of those who look up pleading with terror in their eyes?  Of facing another night alone and vulnerable on the spine destroying concrete?  Nah, we’re just on our way to Me & Julio’s for wine and appies.

The homeless are so crowded on the Drive that some are having to shift over to main, with several large encampments settling in there. Established encampments. Long Haul encampments.

Hellsgate Mall is already being made wanker friendly. The humble lotto and ice cream stall has been replaced by a slick new espresso coffee/foccacia sandwich pavilion and I fucking hate focaccia bread! (somebody please start making normal sandwiches again!)  The buy low foods is ripping out all its old equipment and putting in slick new fixtures. (Are food prices going to go up because of this?)  Everything is being renovated so as not to offend the delicate sensibilities of the well to do fuck heads who bought into all those shitty main street condos.

Their insidious tendrils have squirmed all the way up to Fraser Street, which thankfully still remains sketchy, but for how long? Soon they will be up to Clark!  Already Commercial Drive is seeing an increased evening and weekend influx of of rude and obnoxious wankers strutting around like they own the place.  Thankfully The Drive is resilient enough to resist the wanker advances but the people of the drive are already getting annoyed at the new visitors.  And damage is being done.  The Drive has always had a few fancy places to dine but now the balance is starting to shift as establishments for working class and bohemians are being replaced by  poshed out bars designed for trend.

The oddest thing of all is that hippies are becoming a rarity. As obnoxious as they were they were no way near as obnoxious as the hipster set, whose garish ugly fashions and entitled attitude make them far worse then the patchouli smelling, cigarette bumming hippies.

So we will have to wait and see what happens, but until then I know I am not going to but up with any of their bull shit. If they’re rude or pushy or start hassling the staff at a shop I’m going to give them one warning to smarten up. After that…well, we’ll see.

Okay Mr. Dallaire, its time you got off your high horse. You and your “Rule of Law” and your “human rights” had better take a reality pill. Do you know what we are dealing with out here in the “Real World?” We are fighting the most heinous inhuman monsters in the history of the world. They can not be talked to or reasoned with. The monstrous evil that is embodied in these terrorist scum demons is not due to any social issues of poverty or war or being pawns in the strategic maneuverings of political powers beyond their control. No, these sub human creatures of death have risen from hell to destroy everything we hold dear, like Human Rights and the Rule of Law.

This crazy ‘Allah,’ the Satan beast which they all worship, clearly has nothing to do with the judeo tradition of one God being worshiped above all others. A God who’s will on earth is based on the word as written by his prophets. No, the followers of this Allah character, or “God” as it is translated to, bears no connection to the values we cherish as the followers of Christ and his will as expressed by the bible.

And yet still you harp on about their “rights” and “illegal imprisonment.” Illegal? How can it be illegal to contain such brazen hell spawn as a fifteen year old boy who got stuck in the middle of a fire fight with American forces as they invaded Afghanistan? You cannot be so weak as to give in to the soft headed notions of war conventions and treaties when one is fighting a war! Rule of Law has no meaning to these barbarians. Sure they believe in Sheria law as the word of God and are harsh and relentless in its application, but its not the same as this government which believes in the Literal interpretation of the bible as the Word of God and that no law stands above His.

So this is what we are dealing with Dallaire, incomprehensible monsters who threaten to centralize power and undermine democracy, while we here at home struggle daily to centralize power and undermine Parliament. We need these extreme measures to deal with these people who are clearly not on board with our vision of the World. How dare you suggest that our complete disregard for justice and human rights isn’t called for in battle against those who have a complete disregard for justice and human rights!

We are completely justified in our tactics and strategies, we must be ruthless to fight an enemy so ruthless. They are already throwing Tard Bombs at us! Yes, Young down syndrome girls strapped with explosives! Sure, there is no evidence that this has happened, but they so fucking could do it! If we can think it up so can they. Not only that but soon they’ll escalate beyond Tard Bombs and soon they will be hitting us with Baby Grenades, Granny Mines and any other atrocity that we can come up with. They will fulfill our sick imaginations, therefore we must not intervene in the Omar Khadr case, we must not condemn Gitmo, we must not shirk from the use of torture, we must not shy from sacrificing everything we value in order to protect everything we value. So get a clue Mr. Dallaire.

I Found this on craigslist

Let’s be reasonable fellow Landscape Company owners (GVRD)

Ive had my company for 28 years in the West side of Vancouver , residential and commercial accounts . At times I visit this site in case people of experience have posted and are looking for work . If youre paying people with experience that are good, solid, employees 10 or 12 dollars an hour do you wonder why you have staffing problems and high turn over or are you that silly? We know how much WE make so why not give good people what they’re worth. Tim Hortons pays 14.50 and Starbucks 12.50 so why would someone work like a dog like we do, get dirty, suck in gas fumes for that when they could be serving a latte with full benefits. For goodness sake buck up. If you flag this one it means Ive struck a chord and you know your a user. The LRB should get you in the —— What are you a non profit organization?

So we the government are announcing a bold new plan, a massive plan, a long plan, a plan to rebuild the Canadian military!  A twenty year plan!  A plan which plans to spend $30 Billion on… no wait, $45 Billion… or is that $50 Billion, oh wait, no it’s $96 Billion…I think…

Yes, the plan, we have a Plan! Definitely a plan, a plan of spending! Spending billions! Lots of billions will be spent on the plan over twenty years. Spent on war, yes, WAR!  Its about time Canada be known for WAR again! Our WAR-iness shall never be questioned again! We shall be respected throughout the world because of this! Nothing makes friends like WAR!

We are going to take these billions and billions…from where? I don’t know….the surplus left by the previous Government?  No wait, that’s gone…..how about….I know, from our tax cuts! From our tax cuts we will makes billions of billions and with these billions we shall buy WAR planes and WAR ships and WAR copters and…..what else starts with WAR?  WAR brides! No wait….WAR dead? No no no…WAR cries, yes!, WAR cries and a new line of WAR memorabilia and probably a nice new WAR room and get Canada ready for WAR! Which WAR?  Well, Afghanistan should cover most of that twenty years shouldn’t it?  Besides, I’m sure others will come up, and this is why we must be ready for WAR! WAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!

Ahem.

So, what we’re we talking about? Ah yes, the billions! BILLIONS! For WAR! YES!

This is our plan.

How convenient that after the last post my TV quickly handed me another example of Wankery, and to stay so close in species to the Hot-Shit Rich Fuck by showing us the Hot-Shit Rich Bitch! (Thank You Cadillac Marketing Department And Your Clearly Defined Target Demographic!)

And so we have another installment of

CongoBill’s Field Guide to North American Wankers: The Hot-Shit Rich Bitch

Let’s have a look:

The Hot-Shit Rich Bitch Spotting #1

and for good measure

The Hot-Shit Rich Bitch Spotting #2: Spurning Two Hot-Shit Rich Fucks

This Wanker occupies the same range as its male counterpart but, it must be admitted, is much more rare and exists mostly as a male sexual fantasy. They do exist however, but if you spot this rare bird be sure to appreciate it.

The Hot-Shit Rich Bitch shares the Hot-Shit Rich Fucks tell tale signs of vapid conspicuous consumption, overly manicured appearance and excessive wealth hoarding. She still the superior asshole attitude and the belief that all this makes her better then everybody else but with the female these qualities are prettied up with charm and grace and usually a good deal of sexiness, making them far easier to take, and to some even enjoyable!

It is interesting to note that she does not normally couple with the Hot-Shit Rich Fuck. As shown in the second video she has her own wealth and a feirce independance that allow her to see through the shallow camoflauge of the Hot-Shit Rich Fuck’s wealth based bullshit. In fact she looks down on the Hot-Shit Rich Fuck as she knows he is no match for her and so she has no respect for him. She is turned on by wealth and power, as seen in the first video, but only by her own.

Funnily the Hot-Shit Rich Bitch will often go for artsy or athletic loser types, stolid working class blokes or, if she is smart, she always has a pool boy to fish around her private oasis. Not that she ever grows attached or marries these men. No, if she marries it is often one of convenience for whatever scheme she may have or possibly some stormy and riveting drama of a marriage like the one between Liz Taylor and Richard Burton.

I have had the priviledge to have come across a Hot-Shit Rich Bitch. She was an older specimen but age does not diminish them, they just evolve into old school Diva types. She was one of the early super-models of the seventies and had long been nested deep within the calm and cozy streets of Shaghnaussy. I was one of her gardeners and though I ‘trimmed her hedges’ and ‘blew her grassy knoll’ I can’t say that this stolid working class bloke caught her eye. She already had a young Boy Toy though, one who appeared to be a prepied up pansy sporty sort. He seemed to be doing an alright job as she kept him around for the few years that I was around.

Unless you are a variety of Rich Fuck you can expect to be graciously ignored by the Hot-Shit Rich Bitch. So my advice with these individuals is to leave them be. Sure they may live in their own comfortable little bubble but they are far to few in Vancouver to really be a systemic problem, although New York and LA would probably tell you different. Also their charm and tendency to glamour make it fun to keep a few of this colorful birds around. Any other variety of Rich Bitch however…well, we’ll get to them soon enough.

Good Hunting!
