It's a bad time to be a pig
In the last week we've had 2 pig trucks overturn, causing road closures within the areas that people commute from, in order to get into Toronto. By the way, Toronto's nickname is "Hogtown."

Oh geeze!
I got stuck on the 401 two weeks ago because a dump truck lost it's load of asphalt. |

I only had to go 20 Kmh out of my way, on my trip in to work yesterday, in order to avoid it

Try QEW anywhere between Burlington and Toronto, during rush hour. I could probably walk to Hamilton, on the roofs of the cars, faster than they could get there.

Monday: Commute detour because of pigs scattered across the highway.
Tuesday: Highway exit altered because of a dead body next to my usual ramp. Wednesday: Day called on account of alien landing in the quad?
