It’s Friday again and you know what that means. I am too lazy to write anything, so I just post pictures taken from the internet that make me bitter and comment about them. Today, in honor of my neighbors to the north(not in my neighborhood. They have no honor), Canada, who has an actual government that goes to work today and who also have Thanksgiving coming up in 10 days, today’s post will be Canadian Picture Friday. So for my several readers from Canada I hope this makes you extra bitter. And to my bitter readers from everywhere else, I hope this makes you bitter because I didn’t feature your country today.
Candians are funny….
James Carrey. My favorite actor is actually Canadian. He isn’t crazy because of hyper activity, but because of Red Bull.
High seven!
Are crazy rioters….
It’s a good thing your government doesn’t shut down…No telling what you would do.
Have the toughest street gangs….
Even Texas doesn’t mess with them.
Has tougher superstars….
Just a scratch eh…
And crazier sports…
Just another night on the hockey rink…
…are really nice….
…pretty smart…
Before you eh….
…and really good at getting rids of stars at just the right time…
Dang it, Canada. You couldn’t just keep this one…
So that is my bitter salute to the Canadians for keeping the government working, and all the others things that make America look bad. Thanks for all the bitterness this Friday…
Until next time, a bitter Friday to all of you, no matter where you live.
Bitter Maple Leaf Ben

You made me laugh bc you socked it to our lazy ass govt, but then I got bitter bc dang, our govt sucks. All I know of Canada is making my move to Canada Dry. Here in Texas, our border neighbors are NOTHING like the folks you describe to our north, but I can’t imagine that Canada could ever top Mexican food. How do you reconcile that a polite people like that could go ape#$% at hockey games? Is that where they collectively release their repressed bitterness? We have no Canadians around here, but if you see one, please tell him thank you for Mike Myers.

We invented important things, too. Like acetelyne and garbage bags and the railway car brake ( a real ‘breakthrough’ in train crash prevention ) William McDonald was, of course, a pioneer of the early tobacco industry, buying from the confederate South (no embargo on a Canadian buying tobacco, OH NO HE DIDNT! ) and selling it to the Union North. (Oh…he SO did) and I notice you didn’t include a pic of that Canadian icon, Buffy St Marie. Or Avril Lavigne. Or Karly Rae Jepson. Sorry Joni Mitchell, you’ve been overshadowed. Who me? Bitter? I’m just going to play my Men Without Hats cd and put on my Rush tee shirt…while smoking a McDonald Export A Green. (Which aren’t easy to find in Seattle) and just THINK about how awesome we are.
