    One thing never changes: bouncers are still touchy, power-tripping cunts just like they always have been. Some ape through me out of the bar last night in the freezing cold for being "too drunk" (I wasn't. He's wrong. Fuck him with a hammer drill.) I reasoned to him my friends were still inside and my coat was still checked, and I'm freezing (all facts). He tells me to go fuck myself and "Be a man". I asked him if he's bitter because he got drummed out of mall cop academy again and told him I was catching a cab to go fuck his mother, and Fisty McFuckwad steps off the property to challenge me to a fight in the middle of the fucking street. What he didn't know is his manager saw it through the window, and hopefully he'll be selling Ipod skins in a failing mall on monday. Meatheads: Can't live with 'em, can't duct tape 'em to a rocket and shoot them into the fucking sun.

    Ah, bouncers. What stands between you and a good time.

    Well, they do qualify that with saying city/area with < 500k people, so you may still be the champ in your weight class.

    But it's all the bullshit wannabe gangs trying to do the grow-up thing. Home invasions are all the rage, and the number of targeted hits is insane.

    Oh, and the people out here are just fucking retarded.... that helps.

    Watching Sarah Palin's Alaska. This shit is hilarious, this woman is a functional retard. Drinking Tito's Vodka for the first time. Why haven't I tried this earlier, so smooth.

    I noticed something last time I was in the States: you guys don't put vinegar on your french fries? I thought everybody did it. I asked for malt vinegar for my fries and they treated me like I gave away the ending to a movie. The restaurant diners lost their collective shit when I put it on my fries. It was freaky.

    *cue board members to start cracking stereotype jokes*

    Watching everybody line up for poutine while wasted last night, I don't get why everyone loves it. However, I understand why it didn't catch on anywhere else: it's fucking disgusting looking, like a weathered stripper's vagina with gravy on it. I've found it almost exclusively gross anytime I've tried it.

    See also: grits. I don't get it, South People. Personal opinion, but I did not enjoy them whatsoever.

    Thing about good poutine is that you actually need good ingredients. That means good cheese curds. Most of the time it's actually gross. But get some good curds, good gravy, good fries? Damn. Although to eat poutine in its natural habitat, one must also eat it while smoking a cigarette. In church.

    In other news, why do Americans think we say "out" as "oot" when we clearly don't? Hell, that sports announcer on CNN says it in a rather Canadian way and it doesn't sound like "oot" at all. It's not that hard.

    Also, finishing off that bottle of wine. Good stuff. Bottaccia Uva di Troia. If you like dark Italian reds like sangiovese you'll probably like it.

    EDIT: In defense of that racist old woman, that letter carrier was acting like a nigger. She's a good objective judge of such things - she's not prejudiced, after all.

    All it takes to have good poutine is a BAC over 1.02.

    You do.

    You Canadians have an accent, and specific pronunciations of words. You just have to accept it.

    My company has a lot of Canadian customers, and to get our stored info on our customers we ask the following:

    Last Name,
    Zip Code

    However 9 times out of 10 I can ask: "Last name and postal code please" and they will ask: "Postal Code? How did you know I was Canadian?"

    I know because of how you people sound.

    The 1 time out of ten I am wrong, they are from Minnesota.

    Where have you traveled to? I know I've seen lots of places with bottles of vinegar on the table next to the ketchup and such, though it's probably a regional thing.

    As for grits, on their own theirs not really anything to like about them. But, when you start adding stuff like cheese, butter, or bacon, they get pretty tasty.

    Wait...no. The cheese, butter and bacon is tasty. The grits just get to come along for the ride. Well, that's poverty food for ya.

    I know we speak a bit differently, but "oot"? They don't even say "oot" in Brainerd.

    In unrelated news, I once met an American who, upon hearing me speak, said, "Wow, you're from much farther south than me."

    It is not quite "ooooot" That is the exaggeration. But there is a certain labial fricative that we pick up on right away. Like when you say sore-re.

    I can't remember if someone else posted this here, but a good example of Canadian accents (picks up after the Indian stuff):

    I was never a grits fan either until I tried jalapeño cheese grits. Life changing.

    This weekend I unleashed the Kraken, then it promptly kicked my ass. I have never been as hung over as I was on Saturday. Seriously, I spent the entire day either puking or sleeping. I wasn't able to actually eat real food until dinner on Sunday. It was either the worst hangover of my life, or I somehow caught a 24 hour stomach flu right when I should have been hungover.

    What the hell is Poutine? From a picture I've seen it looks just like cheesy chips and gravy?

    Being not a hipster
    Haha, I really love when people tell me, "I want to hear your opinion of this thing that I made because I know that you're going to be honest and not hold back" and then when I tell them what I want to they get all pissed because... I was honest and didn't sugarcoat and baby them like every single other person does around here.

    Especially when I made it very clear that I liked the project. Which had already been made clear when I WORKED ON THE PROJECT because I thought it was going to turn out well. Dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb.

    What makes it better is this:

    Jesus christ, just did my budget and I am only going to have $83.74 in my checking account until the end of the month. Old Frank's been on a spending spree lately.

    I'd like to give a special fuck you to Amazon, Bj's, Woot, Apple, various bars in Boston and my GF and for being responsible for this development.

    I feel like this is a fitting video for me right now.
