I am convinced that Rob Ford is the illegitimate love child of Chris Farley and John Belushi

*One* of his drunken stupors, no less.

Aren't people who are in a stupor supposed to be placid? Seems more like a drug-fueled rage.

I thin the city's on autopilot while riding out the Ford years.

We're pretty good at dumping our loonies on our friends across the border. Ford will have a gig on Fox within the year.

Performance art at its best.*

*A low bar, I admit.

All y'all know that <a href="http:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/m\/touch\/canada\/toronto\/story\/1.2416903" target="_blank">Rob Ford could be implicated in a murder</a>, right?

But... still no dick pics? Or diapers?

So long as there's no sex involved, it should all be cool in the end.

<i>... a psychotic serial killer kept on retainer by your Wonkette.</i>

Apropos of nothing, I'd like to point out that I'm up-to-date on my payments to Wonkette.

It's a fairly impressive debut, but neither this guy nor Marion Berry can come close to the five-time winner and all-round champeen the Late Great Hizzoner Da Maire Richard J. Daley, he of the shoot to kill order and the off-turning of the mics of aldermen with whom he was not in agreement, among many other stellar achievements. And <i>without</i> the help of stimulants or hallucinogens.

Well there was this, back in 2006:

Hitting The Drink

Rob Ford prides himself on his prudent spending as a city councillor, but temperance apparently wasn’t on the agenda during an admittedly drunken evening at a Toronto Maple Leafs game on April 15th.

According to public complaints, Ford was the epitome of obnoxious during a tense battle between the Leafs and rival Senators, spewing obscenities and bullheaded political jargon.

When the complainant asked him to “tone it down a little,” Ford apparently responded, “Who the f*** do you think you are? Are you some kind of right wing Commie bastard?

“Do you want your little wife to go over to Iran and get raped and shot?"

Initially, Ford denied he was even at the game, but soon backtracked and owned up to the less than exemplary behaviour.

“I’m both embarrassed and humiliated by the whole series of events and I sincerely apologize to anyone that I've offended,” he said with a sheepish shrug.

Ford spent what he calls the toughest day of his career issuing apologies instead of his usual political barbs.

“I made a mistake. I'm only human. I don't know what more to say. I sincerely apologize.”
