Irate Canadian Lass

Well! Not only do I get quoted in the New York Post today, but I get described as an "irate Canadian lass." Honestly, have any three more beautiful words ever been strung together?

Superstar artist Mike Holmes drew this little picture of me as an irate Canadian lass. Because he rules.

Also...DC should hire him and have him draw Teen Titans. For real.

And I'm going to make buttons that say "Irate Canadian Lass."

I still can't believe that *I* know the "Irate Canadian Lass". LOL

I don't know the last time I heard someone being called 'irate'.

It would only be better if you were drawn as a member of the Legion of Superheroes.

Seriously, that New York Post piece is abysmally researched.

I *knew* that someday I'd find a proper descriptor for you!

Irate!

It's magical!

Also, you're now, like, the nerd equivalent of Nova Scotia's Member of Parliament. You represent us.

I don't know if I'd call myself "irate." More like, "amused."

"Lass" is also a stretch.

You now have the best supehero name ever. It really works.

Stuff I've been called doesn't really sound as cool. "Look out! It's Sarcastic Prik!"

As a native New Yorker, i thought i'd let you know that the New York Post is an abysmal newspaper, probably the worst one in the U.S. Alec Baldwin once called it "a boil on the ass of American journalism." Anyway, it would have been nice if they botherd to use your actual NAME, but as i said, they suck. Oh, and i recall many instances when spidey as bachlor had to worry about cleaning his outfit. Hell, they showed him doing that in Spider-Man 2.

As a long time resident of western NY state, with many friends from our neighbor to the north might i just say,..

Why is a Newfie tossing the CN tower, I mean we all love to hate Toronto and all (stupid maple leaves) but really?

The Toronto Star has a similar article today in their Arts and Entertainment Section.

Oh Rachelle, not only are you an Irate Canadian Lass...you're OUR irate Canadian Lass. With the strength of TEN Irate Canadian Lasses, because your heart is pure.

I swear someday, that I am going to visit Nova Scotia. AND New Brunswick.

That is one wicked drawing.

You're the Irate Canadian Lass? I'd try to wrest the title away from you, but you've totally earned it. Congratulations!
