Ginger, my friend (and I presume that, based on our only meeting), the ONLY pit thread I “earned,” and which I cannot link to because I am too lazy and stupid, was based on a misinterpretation by the Pitter that I hated Canada.

Ok, I feel like I’m supposed to touch you on the top of the head and let you rise now. I don’t remember that pitting. And if you were a Minnesotan kid, at least you wouldn’t bitch about the weather should you move North. But, they’d still make fun of the way you talk.
That explains a lot.
