8 Years...

So today marks the day that the Canadian Men's Hockey team finally has a chance to redeem themselves and win Gold at the Olympics. It's been 8 long years since they captured gold...8 long years. And yet...if they play the way they did against the Slovaks...it could be a very very sad day here in Canada, and then we would all be waiting another 4 years for the next opportunity. Well that's if 2012 doesn't wipe us all off the face of the planet before hand. Which if the Canadians lose today might not be a bad thing.

And lets get to the meat and potatoes of the whole Canadian women smoking and drinking on the ice 70 minutes after everyone has left the arena, expect for arena staff and some members of the media. FUCK YOU AMERICAN/BRITISH media. I can't believe they have blown this out of the water. Thank god the Canadian official had the balls to say "its a Canadian way to celebrate", or else I would be off the rails right now.

"Is this the role models you want to show your young kids" - from one of ESPN's show.

Compared to the way you direct, violence, war, religion and other shit onto your youth south of the boarder...yes I wouldn't mind some women celebrating, drinking and smoking some cigars being a role model. Who would you like? Glenn Fucking Beck...Fuck me. I think the real reason they are so pissed was because of the cigars. That's a rich white man's activity, and women have no place doing such things according to these fucking morons.

One of the girls was only 18 Nate.

Fuck you Prude. How many American 19 year olds flooded over the boarder for the Olympics even though the drinking age down there is 21. A fucking lot...smart kids.

What about the American Snowboarder that got sent home Nate.

Don't necessarily agree with that either. Dude was celebrating and if that means he wants to take candid photos with hot young girls "biting" the medal as he has it dangling out of the crotch of his pants then so be it. And I bet your going to see a lot more "teen" males snowboarding by next year. Shit maybe I'll take up the sport...(editors note* no sex for you for a month*.)

And the best part of all of this...what was the very first shot of John Montgomery after winning the skeleton as he walks the streets of Whistler? Being handed a pitcher of beer and chugging it. God bless Canada. I wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

Rant #1 - Fill the Cup to the FN Rim!

Boy it was a toss up between two things that have been pissing me off lately. I really thought it would be the other one that I ranted about first, but then this happened to me twice today and it has sent me over the edge. It is for this reason that it gets the first ever rant on this site, and yet it pains me to do so.

Why? Because its against Tim Hortons, and for the record I fucking LOVE Timmys. Its something I can't live without. My day is a fuzzy haze until I can get my lips wrapped around the sweet sweet teet of an extra large regular. No Double Double shit here my friends! For Christmas the best gift from my parents is always the 50+ dollar gift card. At one point this year I had 6 different cards on the go, and I just keep refilling the bastards cause I find it such a pain in the ass trying to find the $1.65 in change and carrying it around everyday. My Timmys intake is now a part of my monthly budget. Hell I once shot a short film that consisted of a character having sex with a giant Tim Hortons cup, while Enigma's Mea Culpa plays in the background! Yes this exists, and yes its as shitty as it sounds!

This is why it pains me to have to bitch about something that I adore. But dammit this has been occurring more and more frequently at the Tim Hortons locations that I visit on a regular basis. I've have had enough of it, and I need to get it off my chest! Hell maybe it's happening to you, and you will feel my pain, who knows! It all relates to this and stupid Mayor Moron!


See Tim Hortons started a new promotion not so long ago, because Mayor "I'm to Stupid for my Own Good" got all uppity about the waste that Tim Hortons and the other "shitty" coffee chains (looking at you Starbucks) were producing. Hows that treating you now Miller you hack! So to cut back on there waste and get a nice little tax break Tim Hortons decided to start promoting their travel mugs. If you bring in a travel mug instead of using one of their paper cups, you would save 10 cents every time.

Your probably thinking 10 cents, big deal! Not to this guy! In fact for every 16 cups of coffee I purchased I would be getting my 17th free! Don't judge me! That is 1 free extra large about every week and a half. A savings of almost $42.90 a year! Hell that's a case of Heineken right there!
When this was announced I was already using a traveler mug, so this was a win for me and a win for Tim Hortons. And for a time it was......then things began to change.

Now I'm not sure if its a management's decision, or if its just the employee's themselves doing it, but soon after this new announcement I began to notice that my mug wasn't getting filled as high as it used to be. Before I was getting my mug filled right to its glorious rim! Now...its a fucking crap shoot if it will even get filled to the large standard.

How do I know this? Well I've taken a large and extra large Timmy's cup and poured them into my mug. I know exactly where the coffee line should be. And anymore its so fucking random its ridiculous. Hell I swear the one day she poured me a fucking medium! And if that makes me a bit of a dick, then so be it, jump on!

But CK, your saving 10 cents and 46 bucks a year, let it slide. Fuck the 10 cents, I'll pay the full amount, but all I ask is for the full cup of coffee that I'm paying for! The worst part is you can't say anything in the store to the poor girl working! All though there have been plenty of times Ive shot them the "are you fucking serious look" and contemplated opening my mouth. But then that would make me an asshole. And who wants to be an asshole nowadays. Mayor Miller raise your hand!

So what do I have to do now? Scope out who is working of course and know who the hell is going to fill my damn mug properly. So now I get to look like a creeper to these girls, all because I want a full mug of joe!
Ain't life a bitch!

And I'm sure your probably thinking to yourself, stop your whining and go elsewhere, there are plenty of Starbucks or coffeetimes around. My answer to you is, fuck Starbucks, Fuck CoffeeTime, and a big middle finger to you for even suggesting it. If I wanted to drink a Grande cup of piss, I would order an Extra Large Triple Triple from Time Horton's and ask the bum out on the street to top me off! But that is a rant for another day.



All I'm asking is for my cup to be full, and if that makes me a cheap bastard than so be it!
That's my ten cents.

CK82 Out.



What To Expect From The Court of the Crimson King

So what is the reason for this blog? Firstly this is a place for me to spit out my angst and rage towards the things that annoy me in the everyday. Secondly it allows myself to try and express the thoughts and questions that run rampant through my head each day. And finally a place to let me give my two sense about my favourite passion in life, the entertainment industry. Films, DVD's, Books, rumours whatever, I will give my 2 cents! Mostly DVD's though, I'm told I have a serious problem.

So if reading about a persons angry rants, crazy thoughts, and interesting takes on the entertainment industry completely uncensored interests you, then this court is definitely for you.

By My Troth, I am Off!
