[Great White North stereotype humor](http://themetapicture.com/things-are-somehow-different-in-canada/) Sorry if someone has posted this before. In fact, I’m very sorry for bothering you with this at all (see the diary entry for the reference) ---

The bus accident pic took me a few minutes to figure out. Still giggling like a mental patient. Thanks for the link! ---

The one I like is the picture of 4 bears walking down a Forrest highway labeled Canadian street gang ( they will fuck you up) ---

The Canadian graffito is obviously staged. There are no toilet seat covers in Canada. Q: How do you get 150 Canadians out of a swimming pool? A: Say, “please get out of the pool.” ---

> [@EmilyG](#): > > Ha, I like the “Canadian math problem” with the octopus and the puck. 🙂 Distinctly Canadian, as a _rubber_ octopus was involved, opposed to a real one. We value marine life here, unlike the people of Detroit. As for the trap, that obviously doesn’t work; hockey nets are not solid across the bottom. Don’t fuck with my sport, man. 🙂 ---
