I AM AMERICAN


Wassup...
I'm not particularly intelligent, open-minded, or well-liked. And I don't live in a safe place, eat a balanced diet, or drive very well. I don't know Shakespeare, Da Vinci or Gutenberg,although I'm pretty sure they were American.

I drink beer, not water, I am outspoken, not opinionated, Guns settle disputes, not discussions. Winning isn't everything, it's the ONLY thing, And it's pronounced RUFF, not ROOF.

I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack, unless I go somewhere. Burger King IS fine dining. Washing after peeing is for LOSERS, Twinkies and Moon Pies ARE GOOD for breakfast, I have a SHED, NOT a GARAGE, and WWF ACTION IS REAL!

The UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is the ONLY country in the world,The FIRST nation of IGNORANCE, And the BEST part of SOUTH AMERICA!! MY NAME IS JIM-BOB, I am married to my sister, AND I AM AMERICAN!!!!!!!


I AM CANADIAN


(clears Throat)
Hey...
I'm not a lumberjack, or a fur trader... and I don't live in an igloo, or eat blubber, or own a dogsled... and I don't know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada, although I'm certain they're really, really nice.
I have a Prime Minister, not a President. I speak English & French, NOT American. and I pronounce it 'ABOUT', NOT 'A BOOT'. I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack. I believe in peace keeping, NOT policing. DIVERSITY, NOT assimilation, AND THAT THE BEAVER IS A TRULY PROUD AND NOBLE ANIMAL.

A TOQUE IS A HAT, A CHESTERFIELD IS A COUCH,
AND IT IS PRONOUNCED 'ZED' NOT 'ZEE', 'ZED'!!! CANADA IS THE SECOND LARGEST LANDMASS!
THE FIRST NATION OF HOCKEY! AND THE BEST PART OF NORTH AMERICA!
MY NAME IS JOE!! AND I AM CANADIAN!!!!!!!!

Yea sacraficer... as Albus suggested, I think you should quote your post because it is exactly off the page: http://www.cs.mcgill...a/CanadaDay.htm (:) the page also has more nationalities such as Italian, Chinese, etc.)

DO NOT copy-and-paste stuff from elsewhere without placing it in quotes!

i have reported this to a mod, and it should be amended soon

if you read the trap17 readme, it also says that even if you summarize an artice from somewhere, you still must put it in quotes... the only thing out of quotes should be somthing that you come up with on your own entirely!

long story short: canadian customs officials are mean and want better pay so are mean to people entering the country. american customs officials are nice, generous, and like their jobs.

Canada's hellllla cool, dude!!! I'm an American, and I love Canada. What's up with people saying that Canda sucks and stuff like that, it's so untrue. Plus, I love Canadian accents/ways_of_talking. I wish that I could talk that way... It's so cool. haha. =p

Whoa... take it easy there man, Im sure the guy had no intention of ripping off this fine piece of intellectual property from someone else just to make himself famous... no need to be so strict and threatening!!!

This is a post for fun for chrissakes... no need to report anything!! Just remind the man, dont go on telling him how you are going to report and show him just because he broke the forum rules...

Btw trave-uk, no such piece for uk-ers, or at least none found at the above weblinks.
