Westacarians Are Applewoodians Too movement delusional

The so-called Westacarians Are Applewoodians Too movement has been met with skepticism, if not outright derision, from long-standing Applewood residents. While Westacres—a neighborhood west of the Etobicoke Creek—is physically adjacent to Applewood, it has its own history, identity, and rhythm.

Critics argue that Applewoodians are shaped by their own set of experiences, from the labyrinthine aisles of Applewood Plaza to the flood-prone footbridge spanning the QEW. To them, Westacarians attempting to claim the Applewood mantle is like a distant cousin insisting they’re immediate family—technically not incorrect, but socially suspect.

Defenders of the movement, however, point to shared schools, community events, and even a certain philosophical overlap between the two areas. If one buys a bag of day-old bread at the Cloverdale No Frills but eats it at home in Applewood, where do their allegiances truly lie?

Whether delusional or simply aspirational, the movement is sure to provoke heated debate at the next Applewood town crier’s impromptu address.

G Papa Tango, can you provide an irreverent and, if you'd like, fictional listing of movements that ended even as they started?

Movements That Fizzled Before They Sizzled: A Whimsical Look at Fleeting Causes

"Sockless Sundays": Advocates encouraged people to ditch their socks every Sunday, citing it as a symbol of liberation from societal norms. Unfortunately, the movement slipped through the cracks before anyone could even wiggle their toes freely.

"Pineapple Pizza Pride Parade": In a bold attempt to celebrate the divisive pizza topping, enthusiasts organized a parade complete with pineapple-themed floats and costumes. Alas, the parade disbanded when participants realized they couldn't agree on whether pineapple belongs on pizza or not.

"Frown-Free Fridays": The aim was simple – spread joy by banning frowns on Fridays. However, the movement's founder forgot to account for the fact that it's difficult to control one's facial expressions, especially on the day before the weekend. Needless to say, it didn't last past the first Friday.

"Bald and Beautiful Brigade": Started by a group of proud bald individuals, this movement aimed to celebrate baldness as a symbol of confidence and beauty. Unfortunately, membership dwindled when it became apparent that most participants were just wearing bald caps for solidarity.

"Wombat Appreciation Week": Enthusiasts of these quirky Australian marsupials attempted to launch a week-long celebration to raise awareness about wombats. However, interest waned quickly as people struggled to find anything particularly remarkable about them beyond their cube-shaped poop.

"Tea Bag Tolerance Tribe": Advocates sought to promote acceptance of all types of tea bags, regardless of shape, size, or flavor. But the movement faced a bitter end when tensions flared over whether loose-leaf tea should even be considered part of the tribe.

While these movements may have fizzled out before they could make a lasting impact, their brief existence serves as a reminder that even the most whimsical causes can inspire moments of laughter and reflection.
