Since virtually nobody in Quebec gets married anymore, I guess most Canucks are familiar with the possible implications of the (now somewhat antiquated) term "girlfriend".

Really? Any idea on the numbers that do get married?
I know less and less people are but didn't know there was a place they were the minority.

Link is french but you'll get the idea.

This one is by Age group & sex.

You'll see massive drop in marriage vs union libre with the 35 & under crowd.

Did you throw a conjointing party?  Did you get any conjointe presents?  Did you go on a lune de mielle a conjointe?

[Grey Fox]

No.

[Ed Anger]

No presents? That takes the fun out of getting 4 toaster ovens.

It's a shame, really.  There are no people in all of Canada so ruined as the Quebecois.  In some ways, they remind me of American blacks.

I'll be damned, Anthony Weiner is an idiot.

I wouldn't have apologized.

No shit.  THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BUDGET

Meanwhile....

As hacker collective Lulz Security claims it snagged Sony Computer Entertainment's Developer Network source code, newspaper The Epoch Times reports that one LulzSec member, Robert Cavanaugh, is believed to be in FBI custody.

not big on the idea of hostelling

Nor should you be as an adult.

Had the most disturbing dream last night.

I managed to procure some very valuable paintings, proceeded to smuggle them through british customs and met with buyers in London.

Turns out I was alone, and the buyers would rather just straight out murder me than pay the $4 million. Manage to talk them into $2 million in lieu of murder, but then I'm faced with the difficulty of getting that much cash out of the country.

At that point I wake up, heart pounding like a drum.

Weird, weird stuff. I don't know why my dreams have to create such problems for me. 

[Tonitrus]

If they'd murder you over $4 mil, sure as hell they'd still murder you over $2 mil.

[Slargos]

If they'd murder you over $4 mil, sure as hell they'd still murder you over $2 mil.

Probably, yeah. I can't account for their motivations. 

[CountDeMoney]

I'd murder Slags for $40.  Hell, I'd do it for Red Lobster coupons.

You are my friend, so I'd kill you for nothing.
