Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The worst part? Sharks with fricking laser beams on their heads.
If the wealthy and large corporations were not allowed to donate so much money to sharks, that wouldn't happen either.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Kee-rist. I just don't get people. Sometimes I wonder if I'm the only one who looks around and thinks "Not even anarchy, but chaos."
Honestly, I try to be accountable. I try not to make promises I don't follow through with. I feel like the most avoidant person ever, but man, it doesn't hold a candle to some behaviour I'm seeing.
I mean, when I start peppering my emails with "Please advise by XX/XX/XXXX" and "If responding by XX/XX/XXXX is not convenient for you, let's officially put this on hold until a better time for you" and my favourite -- asking multiple choice questions "Will you be done by tomorrow, or will we be completing day after tomorrow" instead of the open-ended stuff that seems to get ignored.
I am professionally pissy today. But tomorrow I get to fall off a surfboard repeatedly.

But... sharks don't eat oranges.

Uh uh. Red. They start talking about shark attacks every night on the news? Duck and cover, baby. Duck and cover.

In spite of the very cosmopolitan (read: stoner-friendly) presence of Vancouver, BC politics tend to lean towards whatever is the most nutbar option.
From what I've see, it breaks down to:
Island: Pretty liberal up at the north end (read: stoner-crop-producing). Friends of parents live there.
Vancouver: Party on! Friends of parents used to live there, before moving out to the land of crop production.
Lower Mainland Not Vancouver: More mixed, still fairly liberal. Wacky spinster aunt lives there.
Creepy Mountain Towns: Creepy. No idea how they vote, but seem more conservative than the first three. Aunt and Evil Mormon Cousin live there.
Interior: Way more conservative, but they still don't see what the US sees in Bush. Rest of mother's family lives there, including Highly Religious Pro-Life Cousin.
Stuff Way Up North: Nutburgers. Nice but wrong-headed cousin lives there.
However, the only real conclusion I can draw from my dataset is that BC residents love to complain about BC politics, and that I've got family all over the place. Which may explain the nutbar thing.

Why? Just to kiss my ass goodbye? Actually, it's the features that get up my butt nowadays. Everything shouldn't be harsh, but do they really think people are really thinking up fun places to put Botox right now?!
