[citation needed], frozenmitter.

Also, the article states that Mexico is happier than the US as well... which makes me wonder why there's a huge wall between the two countries. Is it to keep all the unhappy Americans in?

OK, I'm from Florida. I really don't understand that picture, or rather its contents. How does one go about using a bag of milk? Does everyone have a container or something that you transfer it into?

Yeah. It's given to you at birth. The special container holds it and you snip the top corner to access the milky goodness.

And what does one do when it's snowing outside? Drink and Fark.

Dude I go to university in Ontario and I cringe every time I have to buy bagged milk.

Stupidest shiat ever.

I'm from Alberta. Never saw bagged milk before I moved to Ottawa. You Ontarians are weird.

Savior Self: Other than a conservative government I am pretty content.

I'm content with whatever government is in charge just so long as they have a minority government. I'd be quite pleased if no political party ever achieved a majority government.

Granted not as much gets done but what gets done is a compromise in the interests of all Canadians instead of one group saying "bend over, we've got a mandate".

Maybe so, but you're still not Americans, even though you obviously want to be.

 
Corpus Delecti 2008-09-14 01:19:56 PM  
And yet, America will continue to be the GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD. As long as the only measure of "greatness" is "number of flags on bumper stickers".

So the other day I was in the campus cafeteria and I was just watching the lady try and refill the milk machine.

OH FARK.

It came in bags.

BAGS IN BOXES.

I'm also from Alberta. Never even heard of bagged milk before.

You're talking about the rednecks. I live in Oklahoma and what you posted is so true about those who live in the states that vote for McCain.

Malbar: Subby forgot to mention 100x more insecure and than America too. Of all the countries in the world to be compared to, why do Canadians feel the need to bring up their supposed superiority to America in just about every situation imaginable?

Insecurity.

Canadians are jealous and desperate for the attention that America gets. They feel it should be them and not America, and this inspires the same sort of insecurity you see in little brothers with hugely successful bigger brothers.

/Canadian
//my countrymen are mostly insecure, envious, limp-wristed pussies


You're kidding, right? Gotta' say, I get the feeling that Canadians really don't give a sh*t. We're too laid back to care. We've got beer to drink! Maple syrup to bottle! Mounties to...mount? Whatever. We prioritize!

Holy shiat. Really? Are you saying that Americans bring up their superiority less than Canadians? Are you serious?

Quoted from that bit of Fluff
"Canada and Mexico are among the top 15 happiest countries in the world -- ahead of the U.S., despite being less wealthy than the States."

So subby did you even read that crap?

A bag that's made of what now?

Yeah.

 
Wardrobe_Malfunction 2008-09-14 01:29:34 PM  
I guess being happy doesn't make you any better at reading.

TFA says that while Canada is in the top 15, Denmark, Switzerland and Austria are the world's happiest countries, according to the database.

I'm 41 and I've never been outside of the N. American Continent.
Never had the desire, nor the cash to do so. I've lived all over the country though.

No, but since I've moved to the US, I've noticed milk goes bad faster. I've figured out why, too. It's not that there is anything wrong with the milk at the start. It's just that each time you pour, a tiny bit gets caught in the screw-on cap grooves. This stuff crusts over in a fast gone-bad sort of way. Over time, a tiny bit of this gets back in the jug, accelerating the spoilage of the milk.

That is my theory, anyways.

Depends on if those jugs have been silicone enhanced.
