Goddammit, another American pretending to be Canadian and fucking things up for us. She’s clearly avoided any words with Z in it for fear that she’ll give herself away when she fails to pronounce it “zed”.
Maple syrup is the greatest thing on earth, and we treat it accordingly, with moderation, not like ketchup which is the third handle on American faucets.

So stupid…
The ketchup faucet is the first one. 🤦♂️

I am from BC. Sure not every Canadian is like that but this person totally exists.
Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 1 month ago
I wonder if it has anything to do with lack of enforcement making weed effectively decriminalized long before the official legalization went through. Official legalization was more of a “government and their buddies want in on the lucrative market”, ignoring that weed was only as expensive as saffron because of the legal risk (or illusion of one) that went along with trading it.
Saffron is expensive because each plant grows 1-4 flowers, and each flower has two yellow and two red stigmata, and saffron is the two red ones. A whole acre of it will yield less than a kilo IIRC.
Weed, on the other hand, is aptly named because it is happy growing pretty much anywhere from swamps to dessert mountains. Only real complication with it is the whole determining the sex of the plant ASAP to remove/separate the males before they pollinate the females and then watch for hermaphrodites. Though, even then, it only affects the quality of the final product, as fertalized females still produce bud, it just has seeds in it (at a surprisingly high density if you’ve never gotten seedy bud before) and doesn’t mature the same. Still works fine for extracts.
If done properly, you can get the whole yield of an acre of saffron from a single weed plant.

I spent a season in Whistler 20 years ago, and even though Whistler is “Disney Mountain” I managed to get to know some local residents through Japanese home stay students. Weed was everywhere, granted season skiers and and snowboarders are perhaps not a random selection of the population in that regard.

This is a non-combatant NPC.
This is a human. This one is something called a Canadian. Part French. Part maple syrup. He’s weirdly obsessed with ice hockey and snowmobiles and semi-erotic lumberjack fan fiction. Has a well-worn Tim Hortons loyalty card in his Velcro wallet. He says “aboot” instead of “about” and gets really, really upset when you point it out, claiming you’re hearing things and that it’s a harmful stereotype. It’s not a stereotype, and that’s exactly how it sounds. He has a relative who was trampled to death by a moose. You get the idea.mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 1 month ago
The one detail in this that slightly annoyed me is the timmy’s card. patriotic people don’t shop there anymore because of the ownership, also their products have sucked for the last decade anyways. idr when that book came out, though
also, side note, nobody but the east coast is pronouncing it “aboot”. there’s a clear difference between “about” and “boot”. americans just really draw out the “ow” in “out”, so yes it sounds closer to “boot”, but it’s hardly ‘exactly how it sounds’. /angryrant
side side note, I don’t have a relative who was trampled by a moose, but I do know someone who had their car trampled by a moose

I would say the Tim’s card would imply from an era the company was less shit (RIP their OG Ham & Swiss sandwich with the crunchy bread).
But I don’t think Tim’s ever had a loyalty card did they? Maybe a roll up the rim “free coffee” they forgot to ever cash in.
SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 1 month ago
The ownership of Timmy’s is Restaurant Brands International, a publicly traded corporation headquartered in Toronto. Sure there’s a lot of American shareholders, but a significant chunk of the shares are owned by Canadian banks too.
Also it employs people at the coffee shops. I’m all about boycotting American products, but boycotting Timmy’s seems a bit much.

IMO, it’s more “aboat” not “aboot”.
But, Americans say “abawt” instead of “about” so we’re even.

That’s the reefer madness. East Asia takes a very hard line against drugs. As late as the 70s people in Japan would get 30 years in prison for possession of marijuana. Dealing drugs is often the death penalty across the region.

That’s actually fairly interesting. Apparently Japan thinks we’re really into music. I wonder if there’s a Canadian pianist that’s popular over there?

Rekorse@sh.itjust.works 1 month ago
Is one of their leading exports actually marijuana? That’s pretty interesting if true.
merc@sh.itjust.works 1 month ago
I think Canada has next to zero in marijuana exports, because it’s illegal to import it in most places. It does contribute billions to Canada’s GDP, but that’s production and consumption that never leaves the country.
SpaceCowboy@lemmy.ca 1 month ago
It doesn’t leave my house LOL.

During my study abroad in japan we visited an elementary school as a cultural exchange. The class that day had to pick a country and list three things about it. A bunch of them picked america and the three most common things were McDonalds / hamburgers, pancakes and Disney.
finallymadeanaccount@lemmy.world 1 month ago
I would’ve thought corruption, racism and being fat.
BanMe@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Corruption goes with Disney, fat goes with McDonalds, and racism… goes with everything.
Pancakes are fine tho
Not_mikey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 month ago
Corruption and racism aren’t really unique to America though. If you look at current Japanese politics you’ll see they can be just as racist and corrupt as the US.

Seems like a lot of Asian countries really hate weed. Why is that?
Jagarico@lemmy.world 1 month ago
I was quite shocked when my neighbor here once offered me a joint. And it’s Osaka’s central area, and it wasn’t that late! Though I sometimes can smell it in the air, and occasionally see teenagers (on the older side) smoking weed, it’s usually somewhere far from the crowds and popular places.

You may be tempted to think that the syrup thing is because of the bud, but actually she took up bud to stop getting so many questions about it.
