Corralling all the douche-y people into one neighborhood on a weekend is just a bad idea. Or a really good one. I haven't decided yet.

Who is this irritating Snooki whale?

She's the break out star from MTV's Jersey Shore reality program. She's mostly famous for being sucker punched in the face by some drunk guy (despite the fact that she's punched many men on the show herself). She's not from NJ herself, but actually Rhode Island or Long Island.
Next year you or anybody else, won't even care. Although I imagine she'll have some sort of career in plus size pornography.

Nicole "Snooki" is a self proclaimed "guidette" from Marlboro, New York outside of Poughkeepsie and an aspiring veterinary technician. She describes her ideal man as one who fits the guido stereotype and enters the experience hoping to meet the man of her dreams. She is the center of controversy when a man punches her in her face during a bar confrontation. She previously suffered from an eating disorder in high school. Her friends started calling her "Snooki" in middle school after the character "Snooki the cootchie crook" from the film Save the Last Dance because she was the first of her friends to make out with a boy.
I hope that helps

Never heard of her before, but must say she looks like an ex-gf of mine. Not too bad looking. (And yeah, she was a classic 905 girl who loved going to the club district--something I never liked doing, which is main reason we broke up.)

It depends on if average people are affected by it. I think it would be interesting to build a new entertainment district on infill on the waterfront somewhere with low-rise streetscapes. Add a red light district and casinos. It can have canals and be modelled on Amsterdam.

Well, a good thing Snooki didn't go into a Scottish pub on Robbie Burns day; somebody might have mistook her for a haggis and cut her open

^Oh my! Ha!
Just out of curiosity: is anyone here familiar with 23 Hop at 318 Richmond West?
I think it's a parking lot now but it was a venue for after-hours parties in the early 90s (1991-92).

Never went myself, and I rarely get to say this anymore, but I'm a tad too young. Nonetheless, it has a very storied history in Toronto's underground scene.

I'm a tad too young as well to have ever gone. Just been reading about it though and wondered if there was anyone here who could recount some stories of the place. There's few things that make me wish I was older, but being a part of Toronto's underground scene 15-20 years ago is one of them. I've got most of the music, just missing the memories.
Though, we do still get the rare bomb party these days off under some bridge (under the 401 at Leslie's a cool spot) or in some warehouse (increasingly faaar from downtown) or in the woods somewhere (Claireville Conservation Area and Rouge Park are two that come to mind).

Some of it is good. Some of it is bad. I rarely go down to the 'entertainment' district. It's too cheesy and tacky. Too many posers: all dressed up and nowhere to go.

I'm sorry, I typically stay out of these conversations but I couldn't resist here ... what exactly does this mean, please enlightenment me ... what does it mean for one to be a 'poser', they're wearing something that indicates they're something they're not?
I hear this statement a lot and it always perplexes me ... if they're happy wearing what they're wearing, this makes them a poser? If they're attempting to emulate the like on TV and this makes them happy, again, what's the issue here? Cheesy and tacky doesn't exactly come to mind when I think of the entertainment district, it's not Disney Land, and the comment regarding them 'having no wear to go' does this indicate they're just walking around to be seen? Again what's wrong with that ...
People really need to learn how to enjoy life ... a big part of this includes accepting what others chose to wear / act / so on, as long as they're not hurting others of course - even if this means 80% of the people you see in clubland are these apparent posers.

A "Poser" is just an unauthentic person.... I stay away from people like that.

Actually, a "poser" is an authentically unauthentic person. An inauthentically unauthentic person is actually quite cool because, you see, they're making an ironic statement about actual posers. You should gravitate towards such inauthentically unauthentic people.
