The deal, reports the CBC, creates a new company with “combined global sales of $23 billion and…18,000 locations in 98 countries.” It sure is a…eh, forget it.
Do we need the same really bad pun? Why?

The funny thing is that Toronto Life trots out this article as though THEY don’t resort to the same thing themselves plenty. And what’s more, this tactic of pointing out how everyone does the same ‘joke’ has already become an overused and cliched routine. Remember when Jay Z took a beating from a girl in an elevator? Every news outlet and entertainment show started with ‘Jay Z has 99 problems and Beyonce’s Little Sister blah, blah, blah…’ Toronto Life, stop pretending you’re above this shtick. And while you’re at it, could you maybe focus on restaurant openings in the West End of the city a little more. I noticed one article written about a place opening in the East last week. That’s far too many.
Who cares about restaurant openings.
And, if you don’t like Toronto Life doing what they do, then why are you here? And reading their shit – exactly?
Well for one: They have a category called… ‘Openings’. So it must be popular enough with people to have a category… just like… Closings’. So you lost THAT argument pretty quickly Fella. As for why I’m here, I DO like what Toronto Life does… it’s just funny how West-centric it is. And for the record, I’m not calling their product ‘shit’… you are. Interesting that you take it SO personally and get so emotional that you resort to the aggressive AND the language. But a quick look over your posts on here shows that you have plenty of disdain for Toronto Life as well as what seems like a self-esteem issue, given how often you resort to name calling with people whose opinions you don’t like. Judging by your picture, you’re a little old for such petulant behavior. And that’s coming from a guy called ‘Grizzled Oldtimer. I’m sorry you’re so unhappy in life that THIS is how you deal with your silly rage issues but the desperate jumping up and down for attention won’t help you get better. And I’m sorry that you lost on both ‘arguments’ you made. Good luck to you and your faux narcissism shtick. Good day.
