One thing about Canada that I just can't seem to shake is that they have crazy strict investment laws when dealing with clients in the U.S.  They treat us like we are Iran or something (at least in the discretionary space). Just makes my life harder.

Come on guys ease up, without America, you wouldn't have irresponsible 18 year olds spending daddy's money in Montreal.

However, I genuinely do like the Habs in this forum.

Why Canadians are cooler than Americans;

(http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_lXgxJsKFud4/TEcoqrG53mI/AAAAAAAAHKw/DpQmPh94IaM/s1600/kraftdinner.jpg)
Figure 1:
- It doesn't have to be written on the box for us to know it's Mac & Cheese inside.
- We use a fork to eat it with.  Who the hell uses a spoon to eat this stuff?

Figure 3:
- Not available in British Columbia

And finally... Canadians know the capital of Canada and the capital of the United States.

Yeah but they had to tell you it's dinner in case you guys get confused. You wouldn't write "breakfast" on a cereal box. Also those girls are too hot to be Canadian.
Title: Re: Aren't Canadians lovely?

I once had a teacher who thought it was important for us to know the following:
Capital: Ottawa
Provinces + terr:
East to west no less, (south to north):
Newfoundland
Nova Scotia
Quebec
Ontario
Manitoba
Saskatchewan
Alberta
British Columbia
Nav -i - nut or something like that
NW Territories
Yukon

yeah , okay i checked the map, I missed new Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and my east to west are a little off, but find other Americans who know this much.

Yeah, that one is just weird.  It's like they are saying it's so damn cheesy that the cheese is dripping so a spoon is the only way to eat it.  All of us know that's bullshit as the cheese in that packet is the furthest thing from cheese.

Another great thing about bagged milk is that you can freeze it, making plenty of more room in the fridge for beer.  8)

I have to admit, there is a particular Canadian I'm thinking of.  I met her about a month ago, completely not the kind of girl I'd usually go for, but I just developed a massive crush on her.  We were texting each other all the time, we went to see a band, we kissed... and now she's gone, back to Canada.

I miss her guys, more than I would have thought.  There's always Facebook I guess.

I typically like Canadians when in Canada, but there is nothing worse than middle-aged Canadian women shoppers.  I live in a border town and our stores and mall parking lots are filled with Ontario license plates.  Once in the store, Canadian shoppers (especially the affluent ones) are obnoxious as hell.  ESPECIALLY on Black Friday when they take all the good stuff, because Canadians appear to wake up earlier than everyone else.

I feel exploited like a Thai sex slave when the Canadians come around.

...on a side note, if Niagara Falls finalizes this prostitution legalization, I might finally get my chance to have my revenge on the exploitation.

I still don't understand why America doesn't use the metric system or switch over to Celsius.  Do you know how confusing it is in Canada when I want to weigh something?  Our scales are all imperial/metric bilingual even though we switched over years ago.

That depends on what fluid you are talking about :) see explanation below.

I believe you are confusing fluid oz [VOLUME] with lbs. and oz. [WEIGHT]

In terms weight about 28, 000 mg is in 1 OZ or 3.5 e^-5 oz in 1 mg  -> Although I think .035 G might be easier to swallow

As a side note: the US fl. oz is different from the imperial and is 1/16 of an pint.

Title: Re: Aren't Canadians lovely?
Post by: FiftyQuid on October 16, 2012, 01:59:38 PM
I think the main reason the metric system hasn't been put into place in the USA is because it's a hell of a lot easier saying "Two by four" (2x4) rather than "Ten by Twenty" (10cm x 20cm) for a piece of lumber at your local Home Depot.
