The Drake Is A Ho

The Drake Hotel was yet again centered out as being the reason West-Queen-West (ahem, I mean Parkdale) is rapidly becoming overly gentrified. Hence, this choice piece of graffiti spray painted outside a new Starbucks at Queen and Dovercourt: "Drake you ho this is all your fault"...heh heh heh...Apparently, there is a worse culprit in 'the hood' - a bar known as 'The Social' which actually painted the word "WELFARE" on its wall in order to attract those hipster snobs who wanted to be "all ghetto" for a night - uggh! Nuff said.
