Re: OT - Mindless Rant
It has to be POP, or at the very least Cola or even Coke - never Soda. When I was younger I couldn't understand why they always called it Soda on American TV - then I went there for a little while...
Other Canadian-American things, eh?
About
Roof vs Ruff
Washroom vs Bathroom
Colour vs Color
Metre vs Meter (By the way, convert to Metric already!!!)
Actually I don't think you could - old crazy farmers would start shoting people as soon as they started posted speed limits in kilometres per hour!!!
Some of you Americans know nothing of Canada...When I was in the US, I had people believing that Polar Bears would eat my garbage and I'd have to shew them off with a broom in Toronto during the 10 months of winter - and that was in Washington State - which is technically further north than Toronto. Others ask me "Do you know Celine Dion?" or do I live in a igloo? C'mon. Do you serious believe these things...?
