    What do you say when. . .

    Hanging out with Americans I always get hassled because I'm Canadain. I don't mind it in fact I love it. I've gotten pretty good at coming up with little things to retort back to them when they bash Canada---they're just jealous is all. I got stumped though. When they call Canada the 52 State I draw a blank. My childish side shows up and I call them things like "Stupid Yankee"----what the? have any good ideas???

    52 state reply.

    That's what we want you to think. Remember we burned down the white house once, we can do it again.

      Oh Canada, the 51st state of America, the state you'd like to live in, you know, stuff is cheaper, no handguns, but gee, they're so nice it's a bit hard to keep up isn't it.

      Considering some of the histories you can find in libraries if you look perhaps North Mexico (remember Amerigo) might really want to stay away from the Mate (sorry can't do the accent) and other hibernating bears.

      You could also consider the "Louisianna Purchase", and what Nth Mexico paid for Alaska, inflation over a couple of hundred years, and then negotiate. Surely Canada is worth more than a few billion and there is not that many of you. Take the $10/20m each (make sure it's in your favorite foreign currency) and leave it to Murdock and the ice-hockey/football/baseball/tennis skiing skating dudes, sponsored by Pepsi or Coke. What would Toronto be worth if you all took your money and ran. They'd pay you again to come back.

      One way or another, if you're performing there's a hat line.

      PS Think carefully, if you think Australia would be a good place to come with your 10/20m, we seem to be lined up as #53.

                  No LDR we're not bullies. We just don't put up with little shits that think they can push us around. We would have just blown the country off the face of the earth if we wanted to be bullies.

                    What's up with all this anti-americanism? These pinko faggots should get bombed back into the stone age.
                    Don't these shrill cowards get it?
                    Everyone knows that America the Proud is #1!!!
                    Why, of the industrialized countries, America is:

                    Number One in the number of citizens in prison (2 million)
                    Number one in illiteracy
                    Number one at failing to provide medical coverage to her sick & injured
                    Number one war economy, with a HUGE % of GDP for all things war-like.
                    Number One in the destabilization and overthrow of elected governments around the globe.
                    Number One in obesity
                    Number One of governments getting caught dealing crack in their own nation: http://www.guerrillanews.com/crack/qt_hi.html

                    Can there be any doubt that America is Number One? Yay America We Can Do It! [img]wink.gif[/img]

                            . . . that would be rather wretched wouldn't it?
