I love this entry. It's so very American. I think what's bothering some of these people is a very, very small percentage of Canadians say "aboot" and "hoose" and whatnot. Mostly maritimers. But maritimers are lovely people. I'm all for poking fun at other cultures, especially Canadians (I am Canadian, after all), but I think what's getting on people's nerves is the fact you're kinda inaccurate. Maybe find yourself an atlas. Then find Newfoundland. These are the Canadians with pronounced accents. Note its tiny landmass. I'm all for you being irreverent or whatever you fancy, I just think it would be more effective if you made fun of Candians for something that's actually applicable. I don't like Feist either. And, Feist isn't from Newfoundland. Cheers! AHAHAHAHAH! I love this entry. It’s so very American.

You then try to jump out of your "controversial" blog persona and pull a "I'm highly educated, look at my lucid and punctuated retort to you humourless idiots" response. This totally defeats your stated purpose; if you're going for controversy, stir shit up then let it hit the fan. Also, never ever drop the "persona" you try to cultivate, or the persona is useless. As for the American entertainment industry, probably about three quarters of your writers, actors, comedians, etc., are Canadians. Even Louis B. Mayer moved down from Canada. Point is, Canadian entertainers move down there for the money (US has more money to throw around because you have a bigger market)--but it's still all Canadian talent. My problem with the post isn't the tired jokes about the way people supposedly talk, but the fact that the post wasn't funny.

Wow, that's pretty deep... Well okay then. And what exactly is this shitty little twee blog about now? Most blogs exist for some sort of purpose, others just wee little online diaries for attention-seeking no-bots. I think we have the latter here. Seems you've got quite the sad little fanbase here. Real intellectual giants like *TomWhitemiddleagedGuy*, who claims to be here looking Feist pics, but his Google search actually caught the "ho" shite sprinkled all over this blog. (There 'ya go Tom, for wank material you just killed two birds with one stone. Although for me, this ConnyKate thingy - he/she/it - comes across as a real libido kill, regardless of gender. But hey Tom, has fun filling up your palm). And *Michael*, well, he's just gotta' be some sort of intellectual property lawyer or something similar...he's actually asking her permission to copy the Feist pics. You know, in case she took them herself. (Yeah, Mikey...she shot the video, too. Really, you can see her creative skillz all over this blog, can't 'ya now?) And as for issues of race all over this blog, I've only one thing to say: Jesus - and Bill Cosby - wept. ConnyKate, or whatever the fuck your name is, I mean it when I write this: ENJOY YOUR FAIL. Ta ta now... “…the internet is not another place to police free speech but is rather the most democratic medium we have right now.”
