Instead, let’s talk about how this doesn’t seem to be much different then any other documentary about World War 2 that I’ve seen, except instead of one [...]
I’m in a bad mood, and Jian is annoying me tweeting about the olympics and being all annoying.

Like who THE FUCK DOES HE THINK HE IS !
With this gem – To all those tweeting/texting me: Gordon Lightfoot is not dead. We’ve spoken to his manager & confirmed. This was a prank. Dodgy journalism. [...]
