I was almost blasted across the room by those CAPS! :wink:

You're a hoser.
You're a hoser.
You're a double-hoser.
A double-hoser?
Yeah.
I've never heard that one before.
That's cause you're the only one.
Take off eh!

Whew!!! I'm withya Micajah. I was cross-eyed by the time I finshed reading that post!!! Just kidding leanne and andy. Caps are considered YELLING, for future reference. :wink: No biggie.

Hey, Micajah.... Is that "hoser routine" from Strange Brew?

Over on My Favorite Thread, the Boobs On The Beach topic; there was a little Hockey Trash Talking. I think that some Leafs & RedWings fans might have gotten into it.

But I am a Mighty Ducks fan, so I am trying very hard to forget that hockey exists this year.

I've met a lot of Canadians and they are all fantastic people. When we are in Playa we are often mistaken for Canadians (until we talk and they hear that we don't use Eh after every sentence

). We would meet you for a drink but we will be there too late for you- we are going March 6-13.

This topic has been banged around so much it hurts...Even I was drawn in to one of the more spirited episodes we had on here.
All that can be said, I think, has....PDC is a great place to go, no matter where you are from, and if you don't have a good time, then you aren't looking hard enough...There aren't a lot of nationalities that don't get hit here at some time or other...and I think we are all proud of where we come from...It would be ideal if we could put all the positive things said on here about the various countries and cultures we come from, but that would probably be a hard thing to do...
In a final statement....People are people...and their prejudices show that..but I have NEVER found a spot that, with a little understanding, and conversation, I haven't been able to make my holidays a great thing....

James, we locked a similar post before...I think this one has run it's course...

Laura C · 02-09-2004

Wait! Don't lock it yet. I want to be insulted so everyone will offer to buy me beers when I come down! Choose from the subjects below:

From Houston (claimed to be the fattest city in the country)
From Texas (big Texas accent)
Blonde
43 (so I'm old)
German ancestry
Like ABBA
Want to swim with the dolphins
Eat red meat

HEhehehehe.... It's not that easy, Laura. Nice try, though. :wink:

I'm a Texans fan?

**james** · 02-09-2004

I would lock it for going off course, but it never really went in any direction to begin with.

As another Canadian sidenote, when peeps ask me where I'm from, and I say the States, they often react, like, "no duh, I mean what part of the states..." Usually I go, "what, I couldn't be Canadian? We had to go South to get to Canada where I grew up, eh!" They usually don't have much of a follow-up to that one. We left Detroit when I was 9, but I don't bring that up.

Muldoon

you nailed two of them, dude! Vernors and BetterMade! woo hoooo! there was never a better after-school snack anywhere.

When my family moved away from Motown, we used to always have to work the Vernors somehow no matter what.

BarbC · 02-10-2004

Ugh :o growing up in London, Ont., visiting my granny not far from the Vernor's factory, I never could stomach the stuff. Wonder if tastes change: perhaps I should try some (if it still really exists) next time I'm "down" in Southern Ontario?
PS I like this thread!

i have to disagree on this one point - i met some really rude people in playa (of course - they were in playa for 3 hours until their cruise ship left for somewhere else they would never remember)... :wink:

Beachwolverine · 02-12-2004

Barb, I understand.

As a kid growing up in Michagan, Vernors was what my mother gave us when we had an upset stomach, now I've got this bad association in my mind between Vernors and sickness.
