it's fucking true

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Thursday, 6 November 2003 18:49 (twenty-two years ago)

Would you like me to admit it for you?

― Lara (Lara), Thursday, 6 November 2003 18:52 (twenty-two years ago)

You just admitted it, dude!

― Bryan (Bryan), Thursday, 6 November 2003 18:52 (twenty-two years ago)

No no, it's even more boringer than that. Duh.

― nickalicious (nickalicious), Thursday, 6 November 2003 18:54 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah but that's what's so cool about Canada! Don't you see?

try crossing the ambassador bridge between windsor & detroit. THAT ain't boring.

The moose looks way bigger than I thought it was in that picture! Are those just really tiny trees?

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 6 November 2003 18:57 (twenty-two years ago)

both
(remember, all trees in Southern Sask were planted by white people or by people employed by white people, so even the biggest ones aren't very big)

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Thursday, 6 November 2003 18:59 (twenty-two years ago)

That Coke can in Portage is funny. I was on the phone with a Rogers guy because of something weird with my phone, and when I told him that the reception had gotten clearer when I was in Portage he said, "Oh yeah, it looks like they just put up a new tower by...the huge Coke can? Huh?" Oh that made me laugh I tell you.

Maybe you aren't aware of this, but some white people have very large trees indeed!

I went to William & Mary. It's in Williamsburg, VA. You know, where all the colonial folk frolic about in funny clothes. Granted, it's not very close to Canada AT ALL.

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Thursday, 6 November 2003 19:12 (twenty-two years ago)

Probably still worth the drive to drink legally in a 19 or 20-year old's mind. I think I would like to frolic in funny clothes tonight...

― Bryan (Bryan), Thursday, 6 November 2003 19:13 (twenty-two years ago)

When my bandmate was a kid, her parents took her to Colonial Williamsburg. For a WEEK. And that's all they did. For a WEEK. She made soooo many candles...

Yeah, but even the more northern coldest Canadian cities have cheery names like Flin Flon... also some of you have POLAR BEARS AS LICENCE PLATES! That's certainly not boring.

"Yours To Discover" is an incredibly boring provincial motto, agreed.

Other ideas for Ontario mottos:

"I AM CANADA (said in drunken Peter Buck drawl)"
"Time Stands Still" (said in faerie voiced Geddy Lee stylee)
"So Yonge So Long"

― donut bitch (donut), Thursday, 6 November 2003 19:36 (twenty-two years ago)

You know, this could be urban legend material, but I heard that they had a poll to name the Territory that is now known as Nunavut. Nunavut was on the list, but the actual winner was "Bob". Now, if true, any country whose denizens wish to call a huge area of land Bob simply cannot be boring.

― David A. (Davant), Thursday, 6 November 2003 19:36 (twenty-two years ago)

Well, the urban legend certainly isn't boring, at the very least.

And you have not as much boring but very lucid electronic/rock acts referencing Canada and locations thereof in their artist monikers (Boards of Canada, Flin Flon, Manitoba, etc.)

― donut bitch (donut), Thursday, 6 November 2003 19:38 (twenty-two years ago)

it wasn't Nunavut, but the remaining NWT that was nearly Bob.

Within the Western Arctic, residents and politicians must decide what
name they want for their soon-to-be-shrunken territory. An informal poll
two years ago showed strong sentiment for keeping Northwest Territories,
while the joke name "Bob" was a distant runner-up.

Many Indian leaders favor calling the region Denendeh -- "our land" in
the Dene language. Kakfwi, for one, scoffs at the idea of retaining
Northwest Territories as the name.

"It's a colonial name," he said. "We have to get a name that identifies us
as a people."

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Thursday, 6 November 2003 19:39 (twenty-two years ago)

Yes, Yonge rhymes with Long (at least from what my T-dot brahs tell me) Yonge St. is in fact one of the longest thoroughfares in the world, hence the motto submission.

― donut bitch (donut), Thursday, 6 November 2003 19:39 (twenty-two years ago)

Is "brah" spelt with an "h"? I've been feeling awkward spelling it "bra" because of the other meaning but that's how I've seen it spelt. Pls advise thx.

― Casuistry (Chris P), Thursday, 6 November 2003 19:41 (twenty-two years ago)

"Beautiful British Columbia" sounds like it was submitted by a ex senior shareholder of a cosompolitan woman's fashion magazine. I'm slightly embarrassed for anyone with a BC license plate. But not NEARLY as embarrassed as those with the "special" BC plates that just look like someone opened up Paint in MS and just did some zig zag lines up and down, did a paint bucket fill with green, and presented its grand art statement as prized license plate fare.

― donut bitch (donut), Thursday, 6 November 2003 19:42 (twenty-two years ago)

"So Hung So Young" is CERTAINLY Not a boring motto idea for Ontario!

More on the "Beautiful British Columbia" thing... I mean, it's TRUE. BC is a beautiful province, and 9 out of 10 people who you tease about it in BC will get quite defensive about it, justifiably. Where it gets funny is that motorcycle license plates also say "Beautiful British Columbia" on them. Now there's an image. This tough Molson's pounding rural BC badass, fresh polished chrome, flames on the back, blood stains from the last three bar brawls, over this quaint little "Beautiful British Columbia" license plate.

Huckleberry, you are out of Saskatchewan wind blown gourd.

I have never once considered Canadians's boring, I have met individuals who are. But hell over all, we are a pretty fun group of people. Huge music and cultural festivals all year long. Access to the great out doors, and to cities that are hubs of major world activity. Thanks to the National Film board all of can sing "a log drivers waltz", and the never ending effect of "Canadian moments" which triggers any person who smells burnt toast to confirm with an other person that they also smell it, and that you are not having a seizure.

If you wish to battle it out, I challenge you to drunken downhill canoe races. Winner best out of three.

Yonge is pronouned like "young" but it's not named after Neil Yonge. Oddly enough, though, there's this guy who stands at the corner of Yonge and Bloor quite regularly with a karaoke machine, singing country songs. His name's Ben Kerr, and he's running for mayor for something like the seventh or eighth time now. He's not gonna win, but it would be really funny to have a mayor who, instead of getting up in front of all of the councillors to delivery a blisteringly boring speech, would haul out the karaoke machine and sing a song about hurting. The weird thing is, I've heard that he used to be in the Mynah Birds, with Neil Young and Rick James. If that doesn't qualify him to be the best mayor of all time, I don't know what does.

I'm not asking to make fun of you or anything, but to try to see it from a different perspective. I'm 26 and the same age or older than most of the people you're talking about. I've known most of them for like 10 yrs or something and so I have a hard time imagining them as intimidating.

Tim Horton's don't taste like the hideous saccharin atrocity that a Krispy Kreme donut tastes like after half a dozen, that's why many Americans don't like Tim Horton's.

(Sorry, my U.S. friends, but I'm committing treason for ONLY this issue. Even stale Tim Horton's donuts are just more tasty, pleasant, and less assaulting than the frighteningly unbiodegrable sweetness of a KK)

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Thursday, 6 November 2003 20:59 (twenty-two years ago)

My dad's friend has a whole stack of correspondence between himself and Tim Horton's. He's sent a lot of angry letters.

(I'm nineteen years old.

I just think people would think I was a faker. Even the dorks, I imagine, have a sort of amazing dorky coolness that's taken years to achieve. They would look like Chuck Klosterman and they would be dorks but still talk about having sex and going to bars! And not weak hipster bars, bars that real men go to. I'd still like to go! They would know what Chuck Klosterman looks like, if I said that they looked like Chuck Klosterman.)

Krispy Kremes: too much sugar, not enough flavor (or flavour, to you Canadians). Sugar coating is grainy, and makes me think I am eating sand.

At Tim Hortons I once had a maple dip, which was good (and not boring).

Sad to say but cbc got a canadianized version of south park and jackass. I guess it's understood to be a weak move to promote a canadian identity.
Instead of boring stuff like that they should make a "survivor" type of program based on market systems to get people interested in the national budget. Parts of the budget would be vulgarized in an entertaining way then young brainy charismatic people would propose solutons to make things better while keeping the equilibrum between a free market economy and preserving the social structure the community gave themselves. People would get to vote for the best idea every week, then it would be implemented in some fashion. etcetc

Because donuts are yummy. Usually. I had a couple of Robin's donuts today and they suck ass. When I was at the Windsor Krispy Kreme I was scoping out the cool t-shirts they were selling but then I thought, "what would it say about me if I walked around with a goddamned donut t-shirt on?" Then I saw that they were $30 or some shit so I didn't bother. I think I ate 4 of their donuts that night and nearly went into shock.

And well you shouldn't my friend. It's not just a matter of national loyalty, Krispy Kreme donuts are essentially sugary fat coated with fatty sugar. Employees who lived close to the Krispy Kreme in Mr. and Mrs. Sauga used to bring KK donuts into the office, and all it took was one for me to realize that those things are just not right. Once you eat more than one of them you're essentially admitting that your health doesn't matter, whereas Timmy's are still cakelike enough that you can fool yourself into thinking that there's actually something else in there beside sugar and grease, like flour or something.

I found out recently that you can get pre-packed boxes of Krispy Kreme donuts near the checkout at Wal-Mart, too. Scary.

Oh, and Mr. Mann...my mom is from Regina--she went to Sheldon William's Collegiate and my grandad own Aaron's Drugstore downtown. I grew up thinking I lived "down east," even though I lived near Toranna. My grandmother's favourite refrain was always "well, we don't have THAT in Regina" (that and "you're driving me right round the ring road." My brother and I came to the conclusion that apparently people were living like primates "out west." We also dreaded the annual car trips to Sask--and being forced to go to the Natural History museum. When we got to visit our farming relatives out in Broadview, now THAT was cool. I remember seeing sun dogs and being absolutely blown away by how bloody beautiful it is out there. Swift Current ("Speedy Creek") was also a fun destination, given that my great grandmother would play whist with us and cheat like mad.

So no, I don't think Canada OR the praries are boring in any way. Just depends on what you look for...

Are you playing in Montreal?

― Nemo (JND), Friday, 21 November 2003 18:52 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, dyson, it's on CBC. I understand your concern about the lighting, though it'll still be daylight for most of the game. I sure hope it's not fucking Bob Cole doing the play by play (waits for it).

No. Nothing further east than Winnipeg. Let the easterners find their own breads and circuses.

(Assuming we get a Winnipeg gig, of course, urlk.)

maybe you should offer to play outside in Wpg and invoke the word HERITAGE, you can't go wrong

Ah, tant pis!

And by the way the outdoor hockey is a great idea. Though it would be even better if it were on a pond.

― Nemo (JND), Friday, 21 November 2003 19:04 (twenty-two years ago)

Consider curling.

not in my tent, bub

― Huckleberry Mann (Horace Mann), Friday, 21 November 2003 19:04 (twenty-two years ago)

Curling or snuggling, whatever.

Hey, has anyone seen those ads for BCAA Premier Membership [featuring ex-BC premiers]? The Bill & Lillian Vander Zalm one is grrreat, but I have a morbid fascination with the Zalm so, yeah, anyway.
