Traveling in China is not for the fainthearted, especially if you’re lining up with the masses to buy tickets. It’s one place where Canadian patience and politeness does not pay off at all. This is the train station in Suzhou, which is approximately the size of 412 airports put together.

Looking across the Bund in Shanghai, and then the reverse view from the 118th floor. Pretttty lights.

Imagine what a hollow, frightened, pathetic little person you have to be to go after stuff like this.

Saw A Minecraft Movie with my son yesterday. Surprised how fun and goofy was, pitch perfect tone for a crazy kids movie. Surprised at the backlash it’s getting but unsurprised at the amount of money it’s making.

I don't get this. Part 1 was incredible, but they got progressively worse very quickly. I didn't even finish the latest one, it was one of the dumbest movies I've ever seen.

Met him once while I was acting in a movie he had a (much larger) role in. Lovely guy.

Bought a new Samsung monitor today and spent half an hour declining, refusing, and choosing to opt out of a hundred different services I have zero interest in. I yearn for the days when computer equipment sat there silently until you told it to do something. Now I know how my teachers felt.

727-6307. That was my phone number when I was nine years old. But remember what floor I parked on when it’s time to go back to my car? Nope, not until the day I die will I ever be able to remember that.

Damn, huge earthquake in Bangkok just now, everyone ran out on the street. Building shaking all around us, still going on as well. Apparently a 7.7 in Myanmar?

Absentmindedly left my phone in the pocket of shorts I left on the floor. Stepped right on top of it when I next walked by, absolutely crushed the front and back glass panels. Quick trip to MBK and 7,000 baht fixed it right up though. Not cheap but better than buying a new phone.

“Send us eggs or we’re going to invade you.” It sounds cliché to say that you can’t distinguish reality from an Onion headline, but come on.

Having an absolute blast playing Split Fiction with my son, one of the most insanely inventive and creative games I've played. Same team did It Takes Two, which is also incredible. Definitely get it if you like two-player co-op games. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fcwn...
