The main difference between living
in Canada and the US is that in Canada,
you get to listen to people bitch about the US less.

Saturday, 5 July, 2008 at 3:32It’s so true. Canadians do bitch about the weather too much. And most of us are drunk, cuz you know, our beer’s actually got alcohol in it. I thought it was called Will Smith day now…..

Saturday, 5 July, 2008 at 5:26Haha, you’re funny, Mr Lady. But really? Do you mean that? Because I think it’s pretty embarrassing how many Canadians don’t think twice about making critical remarks about Americans. (But maybe that was from living in Ottawa…?!) While there are policies and practices and attitudes in America that rub me the wrong way, it seems like a lot of snide comments are made just to make us feel better about ourselves. Sorry, don’t want to get all serious on ya, or anything. Happy FTQ day to you, too. ;)

Saturday, 5 July, 2008 at 6:23Amen, sistah (A Whole Lot of Nothing)…I agree with you wholeheartedly.
I live in the US and have no problem saying we are FLAWED. And being run by idiots. So there. I want people to look at the US as a model of a the great country it is, not mock us for our terrible presidents and policies.

Saturday, 5 July, 2008 at 12:03In the US, we are too busy bitching about ourselves to realize their are people who live outside the lower 48. I mean really, when was the last time you heard a rousing discussion on say Alaska or New Zealand or Venezula? Shit, half of our high school grads can’t even find their state on a map!
