Johnny Cool's CanCon thread

[Johnny Cool]

I've decided that we see too many americans on lit.

Henceforth this is a thread to promote and expose people to the great Canadian culture on the boards everyday.

So, uh, how about them Roughriders.

[Johnny Cool]

Hey shut up, this is for those of us in the great white north.

So, uh, how about Geddy Lee's solo album, eh?

 

[Ms_Lilith]

YAY for another Canadian!

 

[scylis]

[Johnny Cool]

So Jonny, do they have churches in Canadia?

Sure, according to our Five dollar bill anyway.

Speaking of, that The Hockey Sweater is one hell of a book, huh?

[Johnny Cool]

Good God people. It's not ANOTHER Canadian.

Johnny Cool = Scruffy = EBW = (I think) High School Jock

You think I have the time to be HSJ?

Jeez. I'm a married man with responsibilities.

more to the point my Alter Ego's all use Caps.

You're not Canadian, you don't know Geddy Lee, Get the hell out of my thread.

So, we sure are funnier than American's huh?

 

[Freya]

Who?

LOL

Geddy Lee is the lead singer of Rush...70's/80's era rock band.




You know, there are some things that make you proud to be Canadian....and there are some that just don't.

 

[Johnny Cool]

here's a little known fact, the sketch Great White North on SCTV was based on CanCon laws. Bob and Doug are what the SCTV crew figured CanCon would give us.

Scary how right they are, no?

 

[RosevilleCAguy]

You're not Canadian, you don't know Geddy Lee, Get the hell out of my thread.

Looks don't count.

 

[Johnny Cool]

Looks don't count.

and better looking. Forgot that one.

 

[70/30]

I'm squashing you all with my fingers!!!

I'm going to post this because it fits your theme of the night. It's pretty funny....not that I think all Americans are like this! So give me peace ok?

A first grade teacher explains to her class that she is an American. She asks her students to raise their hands if they were American too. Not really knowing why but wanting to be like their teacher, their hands explode into the air like flashy fireworks.

There is, however, one exception. A girl named Kristen has not gone along with the crowd. The teacher asks her why she has decided to be different. "Because I am not an American." "Then", asks the teacher, "What are you?" "I'm a proud Canadian," boasts the little girl. The teacher is a little perturbed now, her face slightly red. She asks Kristen why she is a Canadian. "Well, my mom and dad are Canadians, so I'm a Canadian too." The teacher is now angry.

That's no reason," she says loudly. "What if your mom was a moron, and your dad was a moron. What would you be then?" A pause, and a smile. "Then," says Kristen, "I'd be an American."

 

[Johnny Cool]

Also there's a VW commercial that is bothering me.

Vancouver does not have better sushi than Toronto. It's a misconception based on simple people(Closer to Ocean= Better fish)

 

[KillerMuffin]

So, uh, how about them Roughriders.

Teddy Roosevelt's Roughriders completely rocked. The taking of San Juan hill is uber famous because of them and most people forget the Spanish-American war even happened in 1888. Of course, it did happen in Cuba and the only thing people associate with Cuba is Castro and cigars.

I thought you were into Canuck stuff?

Notice that the proud little canadian was stupid enough to say that in a room full of Americans.

Now that's just mean....it's just a joke, I'm sure there's plenty to be found going the other way.
