Fagstein

Hi. My names Steve Faguy. Im a thirty-something geek freelance journalist who lives in Montreal. This blog is about my various thoughts. Montreal , and the stuff that happens inside this city, including its public transit system My hopes, dreams and innermost feelings. My life is not that interesting, and I have a limited supply of adjectives in my... vocabulary. (But I will occasionally talk about myself ) That cool YouTube video going around. I cant outdo Fark , and Im not going to try. Unless its Montreal-related, or I just really like it . The latest indie punk-rock band playing at Sala Rossa. Im not a music or arts critic. Check out Midnight Poutine for local arts stuff. Fagstein isnt my name. Its the name of the blog, and a username I use, and its derived from the nickname an old girlfriend had for me. You can call me Steve. I have a short list of Montreal-based blogs in my sidebar. I would include a full list of all the local blogs I read, but that list would have hundreds of blogs in it. Instead, Im focusing on those non-personal blogs that talk about the city itself. Why are you mean to people? Im not. Im critical. And I usually try to be funny about it. Dont take it personally. I dont care what you say about me on your blog, but could you change what you wrote about me in that blog post because someone might not get your joke and it makes me look bad? Please see the previous point. If you can make a convincing case that I was unnecessarily mean, I might edit the post to make it more clear that I wasnt serious. But if you just dont like criticism, I cant help you. Your blog looks like shiat. Its designed to be as simple and easy-to-read as possible. Im not trying to wow you with AJAX or rounded corners or giant graphics. As long as you can read the posts and navigate properly, Ive accomplished my task.Read More
