This must be deja vu, you told me some stories but never that one, nor did I ever speak about shiac on the blockchain to anyone EVER! Ukrainian, then you fit right in, I think that's a popular demographic around here. Jasper place area is really fucked, lots of weird stuff goes on there. Some dudes are really sketchy, I carry a knife in these parts ready for action just in case but like you said they are mostly harmless drunks trying to look big and scary. 118 ave is where you will actually get jumped for a $20 bill. I went to take an elevator near by to the lrt by Jasper place cause the stairs were blocked off and someone pissed all over it...gross. I took a block detour just so I didn't have to stand in someone's piss.

I agree, everyone is in their own bubble here, don't care about anyone else, just assholes doing asshole things. Often racial slurs aren't used cause people are racist here , they just hit where they know it will hurt in disagreements. I'm part white part native and I don't find racism is that bad, there is a few times but not like they advertise it on the news. There is the odd old stuffy white guy that says stupid shit like to go back where I came from, being part native I tell them to get off my land and go the fuck back to europe and they shut up.

I was coming out of a bar on Whyte ave and there was this bleeding crying kid (like 18 yrs old or something) on the sidewalk and we put him in a cab then a bunch of somali ganstas came up to us with guns pointed at us over it, I gave em all a cigarette and talked it over why they were acting all crazy, same thing everyone left happy and unharmed. Real gangsta of them. People are just weird here, anywhere downtown really.

Edmonton is calling you home...it knows you secretly love the madness. It's trying to feed you...Moare madness!! Mouhahaha
