Review: Osbourne Brunch

Filed under: Lunch, Survival — Tags: , — KingORock @ 4:58 am September 11, 2011

Not rich enough 4 our Lunch reviews section?? I spotted this tidy little pairing while walking past the Safeway in Osbourne Village.

Osbourne Brunch

  • Mini Ravioli – like revenge, best served cold
  • apple – unwashed so you can get all the waxxy goodness

It’s all there; vitamins, minerals & if you’re smart about it;; it won’t even cost you 3 dollars.

Who can argue with that?

di$count everything fashion show (!) ?

As you can see, the trend continues; Imperfect Models are In.

Color scheme(s) will be “grey on gray” with the occasional addition green, orange or puke for flair. Garment cuts continue to be of the loose, don’t give a f*k variety and motorcycle anything still goes.

Don’t beaLOSER (!) clean out the couch & get yerself into this look now *!*

REVIEW: Tha Cheese Dog – Red Top Diner

Filed under: Review, winnipeg — Tags: , , , , — KingORock @ 2:05 pm May 18, 2011

I’m going to shift gears from my focus on winter fashion and bring it back to what really matters…

FOOD!*%!!

Let me set the scene.
.
..

It was a lazy hangover Sunday & the Queen needed to drive to some godforsaken part of St Vital. We stopped at the Red Top Diner ‘cuz breakfast was a precondition for my company.

..
.
Anyway. The Red Top Diner is a classic Manitoban greasy (greasy, greasssy) spoon. It’s got all the essential pieces.

keep tha grea$e commin'

keep tha grea$e commin'

Wood grain everything… Check.
Crusty, yet friendly, lady staff… Check.
Signage that used to be white… Check.

Now let’z get down 2 bidness… The FOOD:

I opted for the ‘cheese dog’ + a coffee. It’s an e$$ential part of what I call ‘the evacuation’ hangover cure.

mmmmmmMmm... feel them arteries thicken

mmmmmmMmm... feel them arteries thicken

This delicantsy is pretty straight forward. Grilled hotdog on a bun with ketchup, mustard, relish, onions and (of course) cheese!

I couldn’t tell you how much it cost; since I refused to pay from the start of the trip; but I would estimate it to be around $10.

I wouldn’t call it a ‘mind blowing’ dawg; but it filled a hole in my stomach & got me over that first wave of hangover. If you’re into greasy breakfast, this might just be the place for you.

Bottom Line:
Price: 3.5 / 5
Taste: 3.8 / 5
Grease Factor: 5 / 5

May as$ well, eh?

This mf pretty much has. it. NAILED#^!

  1. The Suit: – All weather – Insulated – with tear away pants & a sick a$$ racing stripe down the side. aka donfukwitdis*^!
  2. Head Gear: – $5 sunglasses battle snow blindness while a wool hat to keep the heat in
  3. Headphones: – yes, technically could fall under item 2; but are important enough to get it’s own point. Metal is his life blood.

+2 for the ’stache that lets anyone asking for your change, or used bus transfer know they got to back up & shut up.

Fashunnd: Wininpeg Women’s collection

Filed under: Fashion, winnipeg, would you? — Tags: , , , — KingORock @ 11:58 am May 2, 2011

Winter iz almost over (cross fingerz / pray)

But for the sake of ensuring’ yer ready for next year’s cold as shi~ spell; here’s a guid to how to dress.

For Her.

Stay warm & ok looking

Stay warm & ok looking

The Loook :::

  1. Skinny jeans. Body shape is never a consideration.
  2. Parka with fur or faux fur trim. Bad for peripheral vision; great for facial warmth.
  3. Backpack (preferably janSport or Spotek) to carry you’re feminist poetry and cheap ass beer or wine.
  4. Coffee cup for tea; or coffee with hard booze in it (its cold afterall)

Total cost should be under $130 for all items. Unless yer family is rich; but if yer rich you don’t live in Winnipeg.

Fashunn R3p0rt >> Winnipeg Tuxedo

Filed under: Fashion, downtown wpg, winnipeg — Tags: , , , — KingORock @ 10:59 pm February 11, 2011

Got an important Winnipeg event to attend?

Don’t be a d-bag.

Rep the look that is both in style & functional. The Winnipeg Tuxedo:

Check out this George brand 2 tone; spotted back in late November.

Check out this George brand 2 tone; spotted back in late November.

Note the denim on denim variation, a stunning blue on black.

You’re going to want to support that with a classy t-shirt.

It’z common to spot an all blue ensemble on a Saturday or Tuesday nite. The all black approach is reserved for weddings, funerals & Ozzy concerts.

The key pullin’ this classic tuxedo look is the shoes and, on special occasions, the gold chain. Shoe’s should be steel toed runners or dirty Reebok knock-offs and the gold chain should be thin & questionably gold.

Grab a 2 pack of novelty condoms and watch the pu$$y roll in.

BOOM*!

Riding the Wave; Coping with the Cold

Filed under: beer, downtown wpg, winnipeg — Tags: , — KingORock @ 8:20 pm January 19, 2011

Everyone knows that it gets really f*ckin’ cold in Winnipeg.

But how do we deal with the subzero temperatures?

Quaint recommendations like ‘hot cocoa & a warm blanket’ are a nice thought; but seldom have the nitro required to push us through those bitter January Monday’s.

Nope.
.
Booze is how we do.
.
I Present, Article A:

Winnipeg Transit: 10:47 AM - January 17th 2011

Winnipeg Transit: 10:47 AM - January 17th 2011

Riding the bus & that sweet molson dry wave all the way into lunch.

I’m feeling warmer already.

I happenstanced into this Tuesday hoedown while walking home a few weeks ago.

It is a true Winnipeg experience.

The VLT’s were pumpin’ & the semi flat draught beer was flowin’ freely. Tuesday is Karaokee nite so the out of tune country music was in full force.

I knew what had to be done.
.
..

Friends in low places.

……
In an attempt to mentally prepare myself for my moment on the mic; I stopped by the restroom.

Evidence of wreckless mayhem was everywhere.!.!.

A Commando iz loose in tha bar#!#!#!#!

Downtown Winnipeg Biz claims they respond to the needs of downtown residents.

.THEN THIS.

THA HORROR

Have you ever walked through downtown Winnipeg?

The streetz are lined with unfortunate souls; prayin’ for schmokes & now their precious butt smokes have been locked away.

HOARDED! by a publicly funded behemoth; sitting in it’z glass office; staring down at the common man who can’t afford smokes.

This.

Is.

a Travesty.
