Oct 11 23:02:07 <sd88g93> actually, i think tim horton coffee is better than starbucks
Oct 11 23:02:12 <rdrake> starbucks sucks
Oct 11 23:02:15 * md wonders if sd88g93 can name the president of Canada
Oct 11 23:02:18 <rdrake> they wanted $5 for a hot chocolate
Oct 11 23:02:23 <rdrake> I told them where to go
Oct 11 23:02:29 <sd88g93> starbucks coffee just tastes burnt
Oct 11 23:02:33 <rdrake> yes, our president
Oct 11 23:02:39 <rdrake> good fellow
Oct 11 23:02:53 <sd88g93> president ? i thought you had a prime minister , not a president

Oct 11 23:04:23 <rdrake> he was the last one, voted out a while ago
Oct 11 23:04:35 <sd88g93> what's the current one ?
Oct 11 23:04:43 <rdrake> Stephen Harper
Oct 11 23:04:44 <sd88g93> i knew it once, but forgot it
Oct 11 23:04:53 <rdrake> Bush Jr.
Oct 11 23:04:55 <sd88g93> Harper is a conservative , right ?
Oct 11 23:04:59 <rdrake> yes
Oct 11 23:05:02 <rdrake> same shit, different pile
Oct 11 23:05:14 <sd88g93> finally ! a conservative in your gov't !
Oct 11 23:05:20 <rdrake> yes, and he's white!
Oct 11 23:05:22 <rdrake> and a christian
Oct 11 23:05:26 <rdrake> and male, goddamn we're good
Oct 11 23:05:42 <rdrake> he's also banned gay marriage and such
Oct 11 23:05:43 <rdrake> good man
Oct 11 23:06:02 <sd88g93> he got the votes to do that ?
Oct 11 23:06:08 <rdrake> sadly
Oct 11 23:06:20 <md> conservatives are evil, you know that right?
Oct 11 23:06:33 <rdrake> liberals are jerks too
Oct 11 23:06:37 <rdrake> cut millions from my uni
Oct 11 23:06:40 <md> also, canadian politics are much more left then american politics
Oct 11 23:06:41 * rdrake slaps them both
Oct 11 23:06:46 <md> rdrake, voce ndp
Oct 11 23:06:48 <md> **vote

Oct 11 23:07:21 <rdrake> ...which it probably will
Oct 11 23:08:04 <rdrake> md, did you see the new log cabin I'm building?
Oct 11 23:08:06 <sd88g93> did they legalize cannabis there ? or did that fall through ?
Oct 11 23:08:22 <rdrake> it went through at one point
Oct 11 23:08:27 <rdrake> then bam, voted out
Oct 11 23:09:09 <md> new log cabin?

Oct 11 23:09:37 <rdrake> at least I have a place to keep my beer though, in the snow
Oct 11 23:09:43 <md> yeah
Oct 11 23:09:47 <md> cold beer is key
Oct 11 23:09:49 <rdrake> and the dogs can come in too, it'll be nice and warm for them
Oct 11 23:09:50 <sd88g93> won't it freeze ?
Oct 11 23:09:52 <rdrake> nah
Oct 11 23:09:59 <rdrake> Canadian beer contains antifreeze
Oct 11 23:10:03 <md> beer doesn't freeze at 0
Oct 11 23:10:09 <rdrake> or - 40
Oct 11 23:10:10 <sd88g93> what kind of beer ?
Oct 11 23:10:19 <md> canadian beer is actualy *strong*, not like american beer
Oct 11 23:10:24 <md> keiths!
Oct 11 23:10:27 <rdrake> no, it's not cold urine
Oct 11 23:10:31 <md> or Upper Canada Dark
Oct 11 23:10:37 <md> maybe even Stella
Oct 11 23:10:55 <sd88g93> my favorite beer is Newcastle, from england
Oct 11 23:11:05 <sd88g93> good brown ale
Oct 11 23:11:09 * Hikaru79__ (Adrian@rn-revecb15.uwaterloo.ca) has joined #compsci.ca

Oct 11 23:11:26 * X3 gives channel operator status to Minsc
Oct 11 23:12:08 <rdrake> my beaver got out this morning
Oct 11 23:12:10 <rdrake> I was pissed
Oct 11 23:12:15 <sd88g93> Molsen beer is pretty light, very weak
Oct 11 23:12:16 <rdrake> and it must've been -10 outside too
Oct 11 23:12:37 <rdrake> md, don't you hate when that happens?
Oct 11 23:12:55 <sd88g93> i hate it when my beavers break loose
Oct 11 23:12:59 <rdrake> same
Oct 11 23:13:00 * Minsc_ has quit (Ping timeout)
Oct 11 23:13:01 <rdrake> bastards
Oct 11 23:13:06 <md> totoally
Oct 11 23:13:13 * Hikaru79_ has quit (Ping timeout)
Oct 11 23:13:14 <md> they are so hard to find too
Oct 11 23:13:15 <rdrake> I chase it with a sharp stick
Oct 11 23:13:21 <rdrake> but it just chews it up Sad

Oct 11 23:13:25 <md> a sharp stick eh?
Oct 11 23:13:27 <rdrake> indeed
Oct 11 23:13:38 <md> I just throw snowbals at mine until he gets bored and comes back in
Oct 11 23:13:46 <rdrake> good idea
Oct 11 23:13:55 <rdrake> they usually try and go for the river though, hide in the den
Oct 11 23:14:00 <rdrake> I smoke 'em out
Oct 11 23:14:12 <sd88g93> are they mean ?
Oct 11 23:14:19 <md> nah
Oct 11 23:14:22 <rdrake> they try to bite, gotta be careful
Oct 11 23:14:22 <md> not if you tame them
Oct 11 23:14:26 <rdrake> but only if you're mean back
Oct 11 23:14:28 <md> yu're bites?
Oct 11 23:14:32 <rdrake> sometimes
Oct 11 23:14:36 <md> I taught mine only to bite my brother
Oct 11 23:14:38 <rdrake> it's a jerk
Oct 11 23:14:46 <rdrake> should bring it over to you, you can train it
Oct 11 23:14:52 <rdrake> after all, you're only a few cabins over
Oct 11 23:15:10 <sd88g93> what part of canada you fellows in ?
Oct 11 23:15:23 <rdrake> Canada's pretty small
Oct 11 23:15:33 <rdrake> we're around the Arctic
Oct 11 23:15:38 <rdrake> that's why it's so damn cold
Oct 11 23:15:50 <md> we get daylight 24 hours a day half hte year
Oct 11 23:15:52 <md> lots of fun
Oct 11 23:15:55 <rdrake> indeed, it's hard to sleep
Oct 11 23:15:56 <sd88g93> yes, i have such high hopes on this global warming idea
Oct 11 23:16:00 <rdrake> takes a while to get used to
Oct 11 23:16:02 <rdrake> oh us too
Oct 11 23:16:07 <md> I dunno
Oct 11 23:16:07 <rdrake> those polar bears terrorize our villages
Oct 11 23:16:15 <rdrake> eating all the seal blubber
Oct 11 23:16:18 <md> but if it's warmer they'll come closer
Oct 11 23:16:21 <rdrake> true
Oct 11 23:16:27 <md> better get more ammo
Oct 11 23:16:31 <rdrake> agreed
Oct 11 23:16:35 <rdrake> I just use a bow and arrow
Oct 11 23:16:45 <rdrake> easier that way
Oct 11 23:16:48 <sd88g93> ever see a polar bear ?
Oct 11 23:16:50 <rdrake> yup
Oct 11 23:16:54 <md> all the time
Oct 11 23:16:55 <rdrake> they come around every so often
Oct 11 23:16:59 <rdrake> more to md's
Oct 11 23:17:02 <rdrake> he leaves garbage on his lawn
Oct 11 23:17:03 <rdrake> jerk
Oct 11 23:17:07 <sd88g93> there are black bears around here
Oct 11 23:17:13 <rdrake> too cold for them
Oct 11 23:17:32 <md> bears: nature's garbage disposals
Oct 11 23:17:41 <rdrake> just as God intended
Oct 11 23:17:45 <md> yup
Oct 11 23:17:47 <rdrake> another tool for humans to abuse

Oct 11 23:18:32 <rdrake> night
Oct 11 23:18:35 <sd88g93> gotta run now
Oct 11 23:18:35 <md> 'night
Oct 11 23:18:40 <rdrake> hopefully I can get to the satellite tomorrow to come back
Oct 11 23:18:42 <TheFerret> yes, it was brutal
Oct 11 23:18:48 <rdrake> and no polar bears eat the receiver Sad

Post subject:	Wow...
Tonight we had a surprising visitor. Now, we generally like to be gentle to our guests in the channel, however, this was an exception. I'm sure as Canadians you get bothered when an American starts stereotyping you, here's the result. Just a word of note, this conversation was us being sarcastic and joking around. In no way was anything we said true, nor does it reflect how we feel.

I dunno, it seems like you guys all jumped on to the poor guy. He didn't say anything (besides a sarcastic joke about having 10 fingers), and you got on his case about being american. I feel sorry for the guy, he doesn't deserved being made fun of, and teamed up on.

Actually he said a lot; but it was all snipped out. Most of it was just him asking questions though. I don't see how we jumped on him... we jsut played the parts of Canadians as per american stereotypes (or perceived stereotypes). All in all it was nothing but harmless fun.

Yeah, I was lurking towards the end of that heheh. Don't know though, I'm more on octopi's side. I mean sure, he said quite a few of those stereotypical things, but then you were being stereotypical in assuming that he wouldn't know we have a Prime Minister, were you not? Besides, I'm sure most Americans are far, far more clueless than that. Sure it was harmless fun, and quite fun at that, but for the sake of argument...

I know your being sarcastic, but I love that show, lol. the best episode is where he makes a satellite dish out of chip bags, he fills up like 3 huge gabage bins with chips.

sigh some people don't seem to be able to laugh at things... yes we were being highly sarcastic and playing typical canadians as seen through american's eyes as seen by canadians (it's the canadian stereotype of americans that leads to this you know...). But it was hilarious at the time, and hell yes I'd do it again. So to hell with all you losers who think it was mean, I'm going to go play with beaver

I think it's a stereotype of Americans to say that what you were saying is (even an exaggerated) stereotype they hold of Canadians. Try figuring that sentence out.
