I can never tell when you're serious, Mr. Class Clown.

Over 200 years ago, people like you were called "tories" or "loyalists". Even today, they're called "apologists".

WOW!~ I like how you've jumped to conclusions yet again and you don't even know if I was being sarcastic or genuine!

Judged yet again by a Christian no less... tsk tsk.

Canadians are called a lot of names here in the US, and I doubt this one is at the top of anyone's list.

See above.

I'm talking about Definition 4. Not political parties.

It was a pretty hard slap for being sarcastic, wouldn't you say?

Or is this an example of insulting someone and then saying "just kidding" when they threaten to PUNCH YOUR FACE!~


lol, sorry I could not resist.

I was talking "apologists" as in: A Canadian is walking down the sidewalk and someone bumps into him/her.Their reaction (the Canadian's) is to say...sorry.

How Shallow can you be, Blue?

Ask any family celebrating Thanksgiving in America, and no one will tell you that they are celebrating the "wholesale slaughter of the indigenous population".

That is not what Thanksgiving is about.

Perhaps you could take time out of your busy day of self-gratification to feel thankful for anything, only to be told you ...[text shortened]... from a nation of self-important blowhards and no longer have to care what they think of us.
ummm shallow blue is Dutch! your in for a roasting now!
