I saw a dead body today

[onomatopoeia]

I saw a dead body today, near Sherbourne and Shuter. It was a white male, probably 25-30 years old. It might have been an OD, or possibly he hit his head after climbing a fence to sift through garbage; he was in a locked enclosure where they keep dumpsters beside 200 Sherbourne.

I told the guy who sells loose cigarettes near Jarvis and Shuter, and he said "Right on".

Sounds like a regular ass day in Toronto to be honest. I remember when a torso was found in the alley behind the Wrong Bar in Parkdale way back when I was still dumb enough to think living in Toronto was a good idea

The Job was a very funny sitcom from 2001-02, starring Denis Leary as an NYPD detective. In the third episode of season 2, ("Telescope"), a dead body is found on the border between two precincts, and cops keep moving it so that the investigation will be someone else' job.

These are high quality DVD rips, (Xvid .avi), mage by the 'LOKI' scene group. They are, however, download only, because for some reason the site did not generate .mp4 versions for online viewing.

I told the building security guard. Cops were on the scene when I returned about half an hour later.

The last episode of The Job aired before the first episode of The Wire.

Back in uni, I was walking up the outside steps of the Robarts Library (Fort Book) and came across an elderly man slumped over.
I notified security, and he said, "He's dead, the police have been called, don't touch the body."
I thought it was just some hobo, but the next day, I read in the papers that he was the head of the Canadian Opera Company.

Today I walked to the grocery store only to buy 6 mango. Did not saw any dead body.

Update:

I walked past the body location two hours later, and the cops were gone, and there was no yellow crime scene tape. Most likely the guy died after climbing the fence around the dumpster area. We appear to have a Darwin Award winner.

I had an ederly Chinese gentleman die in the slot chair next to me. About 11 a.m. just slumped in his chair and died. No noise, nothing!

Back inthe early 90s some Aussie coppers told me how they gently pushed a DB of a homeless alcoholic (they thought they recognized him) that washed up onto the shore back into the water then rang the water police to make it their problem. I asked why, they said they wanted to go to lunch.
