There is nothing clean about this city. People from Toronto say that there is a nice clean subway. Please tell me what is clean about our subway i am a bit confused. I live in Toronto and have wondered for years what has happened to this city. I also don't understand why people are constantly acting "ganster" in this city if you really want to be a better city then all the others in Canada try acting normal. They pretend like they are the best when really they are the scum of Ontario.

Get the Toronto mug.Massive and poorly planned sprawl somewhere on the shores of lake Ontario. Dunno which dimwit decided to start a settlement in that flat wasteland (at least Calgary and Edmonton have their money-making oil fields).
Otherwise a pretty clean city, streets are well kept, freeway and transit system are efficient. Got some nice neat-looking suburbs, but if you're from someplace awesome like Vancouver, you'd think it's a dump cuz it's all brick...then again what other material will protect you from "freezing flesh" warnings common throughout half the year. Oh, every single house looks exactly the same; there's only one style throughout the entire metropolitan region. Entire golden horseshoe area is developed with highrises randomly popping up here and there; can never tell when you're leaving one city and entering the next.
Locals like to dress up fancy and act sophisticated, to remind themselves that they're the centre of the universe. Maybe it's the bad climate, or they just don't get out much, but compared to Vancouverites or Montrealers, Torontonians are an unattractive people, like that brown hairy female news anchor on CityTV they threw in just to prove how multicultural they are. City itself tries to imitate New York, and fails miserably.
Don't get me started on architecture...it's embarrassing; downtown is built in the 60's so not their fault there...but in the suburbs like Scarborough and Mississauga, they have gay pointy Chryler Buildingesque spires on their residential towers, just to make it look architectural. Pathetic...nothing's original.
But if you just want to work and make some money for now and then move to Vancouver when you're rich, Toronto's the place to go. Housing is cheaper than Vancouver by a lot, and so is everything else. Essentially it's a nice city that provides you with everything you need, although not necessarily what you want.
Just don't forget your snowboots, gloves, shovels, matches and signal flares when you go out.

One of the worst big cities in the world. The people of toronto absolutely suck ass and the night life is pure shit.
Negatives:
- The last call for alcohol is at 2 am.
- You can't buy liquor or beer anywhere but at a government owned establishment (which most of them close at 9 pm: LCBO).
- The weed is the worst in the world.
- The clubs are pack with dudes, with a ratio of like 9 dudes per chick in clubs.
- The city reeks.
- The majority of people dress like absolute crap and have no fashion sense whatsoever.
- For some reason, most Toronto chicks don't like to hang out with girls or don't have too many chick friends because they all stab each other in the back (haha).
- The toronto Maple Leafs absolutely suck ass (good reflection of the city overall).
- The strip clubs are the worst. The lap dances are 20$ and you're not supposed to touch (of course I do anyway and the chicks like it).
- They have the worst drivers in the world.
- It's filled with fucking annoying faggot douchebags.
- There's really nothing to see there. It's an absolutely shitty version of New York.
- Cost of living is high for such a boring city.
- You go downtown after 9 PM and it's completely DEAD! (except for the shitty "entertainment" disctrict which is filled with dudes laced clubs.)
- People from Toronto hate the city, so need I say more?
In a nutshell, Toronto is New York's retarded half brother.
Positives:
- There are some pretty hot chicks (from all sorts of diverse ethnic backgrounds).
- The chicks are dumb as hell.
- The chicks are pretty easy to get in bed (especially if you speak 4 languages fluently and happen to be a good looking 6'2 and lean 205 lbs guy like me.)

Dude #1: hey let's go to Toronto Canada to bang plenty of fucking chicks.
Dude #2: No fucking way bro! I'd rather hang myself than go to fucking Toronto.
Dude #1: You know what? fuck it, lets go to Montreal instead.
Dude #2: Yeahhhh, now you're talking!

Get the Throne Sausage mug."I can't talk now, I'm totally thronged." means swamped with work. "I came in to work and was thronged with emails."
Common expression in Wall Street law firms. Originally from Old Norse. cf Icelandic þröng, etc. (narrow, tightly pressed; compelled, forced in the sense of being pressed to do something ); trang (narrow), Swedish trång (narrow, tight). All probably related to the Standard English throng (crowded, to form a tightly-packed crowd, etc.). Perhaps from Yorkshire dialect. Variants: thrang, threng.

Get the dickhead Toronto mug.Since Vancouver has filled the "Best place in the universe" category, residents of this mediocre sprawling mess have only the size of "T dot" to fall back on, thus hailing it the centre of the universe, or of Canada at least, (since mid-size US cities like even Detroit are larger than Toronto). In a highschool, Toronto would be the fat ugly chick with inferiority complex and a rich daddy.
Torontonian: Yeah, TDot's the best man! Downtown Canada! What does your little town have to offer, huH??"
(Gets owned by someone from any Canadian city)
"Yeah, well...my city is bigger than yours!!!"
