Let’s face it: the news is depressing 90% of the time.
Whether it’s about missing people, car accidents, political scandals, or some other gruesome incident, reading about what’s going on in the world often leaves us depressed and disillusioned.
But one BC online radio scanner service stands out, with its penchant to post everything they hear; the good, the bad, and the hilarious. And much of the hilarious stuff is picked up from right here on Vancouver Island!
ScanBC’s Twitter account is one that should be followed by anyone who lives in BC.
Here are 13 tweets that will show you why:
