There was an ice storm last night, so I have to have a crappy blackout breakfast of cold coffee and stale Shredded Wheat.

Get the Blackout Breakfast mug.Blackburn Hamlet, mostly referred to as "blackburn" but also known as Whiteburn and Crackburn - depending on which part is being discussed - is a small neighbourhood in the East side of Ottawa, Ontario.
Innes road, the main road in Blackburn, divides the area economically.
North of Innes road is typically referred to as "Whiteburn", as the area consists mostly of white middle class families and retired old white people (minus the twin apartment buildings and the town houses around them, which despite being north of Innes are included under the "crackburn" umberella). This part of Blackburn is quiet and stuck in the 1980's.
South of Innes road is typically referred to as "Crackburn", as many parts of this neighbourhood are low income areas. For the most part, it looks more intimidating then it really is, other than the occasional drive-by and swarming/robbery. Some parts, specifically parts closer to the center, are public housing, while some are just shabby rentals. Specifically, 2676 Innes is notorious for it's crackheads and is often refered to as the "baby momma projects" due to high rates of teen pregnancy, as well as the Innes Park Complex twin apartment buildings, which houses many local drunks and drug addicts.
Being one of 2 neighborhoods fully surrounded by the greenbelt, it sometimes feels very isolated living in Blackburn. It can feel anywhere from a small American suburb to a rural ghetto. It all depends where you live and what you make of it.

Get the Blackburn Rovers mug.Unlike the typical blackout that occurs after a hard night of drinking where you can't remember things you did the night before; "rolling blackouts" occur in real-time throughout the actual night of drinking.
George was so fucked up last night that he was having "Rolling Blackouts", he kept asking when we were going to order dinner after we had already ordered and eaten. Then he got upset when dessert came saying, "this is interesting, dessert BEFORE dinner!"
