It scarred me.

Deep emotional scarring.

Fake News!

You asked for ice for your tea and it was late November. In Canada. You want ice for your tea go scrape it off the hood of Da Truck. She laughed? More like she almost peed her panties.

Hope this helps

In my experience, this is not true. Those boys are well-adjusted.

I've been informed that Canadian bacon ain't really Canadian.

That's not what I read. To be labeled as "Canadian bacon," it must be made from 51% to 80% corn-fed Canadians of proper age.

Well-adjusted, well maybe.

However, you’ve got your Toronto type Canadians and then you’ve got your Yellowknife and Whitehorse Canadians.
Not even the same species. I’d be much more circumspect in the Yukon and NW territories than Ontario.

Then you’ve got Quebec… that’s not even really part of Canada is it?

I asked the google machine: What Is Canadian Bacon?

Canadian bacon, also called back bacon or rashers, comes from the pork loin of a pig. The dish originated in Canada and is different from American-style bacon (also called streaky bacon), which comes from pork belly and has much more fat (possible re wording for "and has much more fat" maybe we consider, "and has oh so much more flavor" instead).
