| Labour/Labor day... Have a great one! | |
| By: ReverendBeast Date: August 29, 2017, 11:23 am | |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| Have a great Labor Day! Which, apparently, has absolutely | |
| nothing to do with having babies. This was news to me. Turns | |
| out it is about the labor force and their contribution to the | |
| economy�or something like that. I tried to read an article | |
| about it but it was just soooo boring. Honestly I couldn�t get | |
| past the first line. They say it�s also the �unofficial end of | |
| summer� which just makes me sad, but then I remember that we are | |
| only a month away from hockey season, so not too sad. Still, I | |
| liked it better when I thought Labor Day was a celebration of | |
| the day that the most babies are born. That should be a | |
| holiday. We could all get a day off work and eat birthday cake | |
| and inhale helium from balloons. Or, better yet�since it�s labor | |
| day we could all get free epidurals. That would be a way better | |
| holiday than whatever the heck the real Labor Day is. What do | |
| people even do on Labor Day? I usually clean out my closets. | |
| (That�s right. I know how to have a good time). I know what | |
| they do in Canada for Labor Day. They start out by spelling | |
| labor wrong. (Its Labor Day not Labour Day @ssholes). Then | |
| they sit around judging Americans. But then again, that�s what | |
| they do every day. They think they are so great. I can just | |
| hear their annoying little whiney Canadian accented voices: �Oh | |
| look at us, we�re Canadians, eh? We�re so polite and nice, eh? | |
| We have excellent gun control laws and a really low violent | |
| crime rate, eh? We accept everyone eh? We invented hockey, eh? | |
| We love everyone eh? We are so much better than Americans, eh? | |
| Marijuana is legal here, eh? We are so much smarter too, eh? We | |
| have a better healthcare system, eh? Tim Hortons�s coffee is the | |
| best, eh? We have more alcohol in our beer, eh? Our Prime | |
| Minister is way better looking than your stupid, orange | |
| president, eh?� Well guess what Canada? You can sit up there | |
| in your snowbanks feeling all smug and superior, making every | |
| statement sound like a super polite question, and looking down | |
| your noses at your idiotic, backwards, racist southern | |
| neighbors. But the joke is on you. I mean, sure you have us on | |
| the Hockey thing�and the coffee thing. Seriously Tim Horton�s | |
| coffee is really, really good�and oddly addictive, like they put | |
| crack in it. And sure, you are probably a little more accepting | |
| of others than we are here in the U.S., and you end every | |
| sentence with Eh? which is really kind of adorable�but that�s | |
| not the point. None of that is the point. The point is that | |
| your economy is directly linked to ours. So if we go down, we�re | |
| bringing you with us. That�s right. You are like the barnacle | |
| stuck to the side of the sinking ship. Stick that in your maple | |
| syrup scented weed and smoke it, eh? | |
| Have a great Labor Day weekend everyone! Clean out some closets, | |
| eat some cake, inhale some helium�hell�get an epidural. You | |
| deserve it! You work hard. We�ve had a crazy busy summer. It�s | |
| time for a nice relaxing long weekend. (Except Canada. They can | |
| suck it�Go Bruins)! | |

| I missed the legalisation of POT man ( and yes I used an S and | |
| not a Zeee, and by the way it is Zed), we in Canadair do not | |
| have legal pot, however our southern brothers do, kinda in some | |
| states though still not legal federally. | |
| And it is labour, why be stingy with "U", think about | |
| (pronounced AahBOOT) it ?!!EH. | |
