They love giving it to Canada on the Simpsons, its awesome and always makes me laugh.

I'll always remember when they went to Calgary for Lisa to be in the Spellympics.

Well, Matt Groening's father (Homer Groening) is from Canada. Although there is a bit of debate about whether he was from Winnipeg or Main Centre, SK.

I also heard a while back that a good portion of the writers were Canadian.
I wonder if people still name their kids Homer...or Jesus.

NSFL=Not So Funny Lady. But I will also accept Not Safe For Life and Not Sober For Long.
This will probably make me public enemy number one, but I don't like the Simpsons. Or Southpark. And I didn't like Seinfeld. I think reality TV shows are pointless and not entertaining. I don't like Idol and other talent shows. I've never seen Titanic, Jurasic Park or a ton of other hit movies. I think Ben Stiller sucks. And I think Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan and the Hilton chick should all be sentenced to doing 12 months service as chamber maids in a flea bag motel in a third world country.
Maybe I'm allergic to American pop culture or something.

This just means you have no sense of humor.

Agreed....waste of TV time for stuff that only ######s watch.

Some of those 'hit' movies are fantastic. Jurrasic Park was pretty damn good when it came out.

It's great that everyone's tastes are different (at least a little) from everyone else.
The only time it becomes an issue is when people deride others because of those tastes. WWE isn't for me, but if others like it, more power to them (although I would far prefer to see some minor league sports instead).

I agree 99%, that 1% is WWE. Then I can deride them

The only thing I use the weather for is a complaint. It doesnt matter what the weather is like I will complain about it.
Its too hot or its not hot enough.
Its too cold or its not cold enough.
Theres too much snow, not enough snow, we need more snow.
Why wont it stop raining? Why the hell wont it rain? Rain already!
It is far too windy out.
Theres no wind! Where the hell is the wind? The air is far too stagnant, get some wind in here.
Its too bright out, someone blot out the sun.
Its too dark out, expend all natural resources on illuminating the night.
You call this a storm? This is a weak storm. I could make a better storm anyday.
This storm is unreasonable. Too much storm.
I always found it funny that the weather is used as an excuse. The weather sucks everywhere. I could go to 'Perfect Weatherland' and complain forever. I'll still go though. I never got that when hockey players complained about the weather in some city. The weather sucks everywhere.
Did I mention I hate weather? All of it.
