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.
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!
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!
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.

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!

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.

Ain't life a bitch!

That's my ten cents.

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.
