Kilometres, this isn’t a London, from the states.

But, correct about London Ontario’s horrible infrastructure and city planning.

While I generally agree with NJB, he does get a little carried away. He is passionate for sure.

He’s quite gracious, all things considered.

TIL, I had no clue Ryan Gosling came from Fake London, an obvious shithole.

Oh I’m sorry, did I offend you and your love of concrete hellscapes full of gas stations, strip malls; lining endless stroads with wide lanes clogged with penis enhancing oversized, non-hauling trucks. Truly a modern marvel of urban design that is inviting for living-- not.

McDonald’s is not a positive.

None of those things are particularly positive.

I didnt know ryan gosling was born in fake london, thats insane actually

Canadians are more similar to Americans than Americans are similar to Americans. He’s also an actor so he’s trained to sound like a Californian.

Oh i knew he was canadian but didnt know it was fake london

Later on he had moved to Cornwall. Cornwall, Ontario, Canada. BTW AFAIK Celine Dion and Rachel McAdams were born there, too. I’d guess OP (or whoever originally made this meme) also heard it from No such thing as a Fish.

When people talk money, do they just say the word money, make coin noises, or just list world currencies? I need to know to blend in

Yes

The reason people hate America… well. One reason people hate the United States of America is that (some) Americans don’t know that Canada is a different country.

Huh? This is England v Canada beef
mechoman444@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Ryan Gosling was born in Canada, wasn’t he… Well I feel foolish.
ParadoxSeahorse@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Yes, there are lots of beautiful places in the Americas, people just don’t like the USA, the country.
They are probably better off just going to Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean instead and skipping the USA politics.

I’m amazed there isn’t a New London.
But then again, why would you leave the original london and go anywhere?
kat_angstrom@lemmy.world 1 month ago
There are 15 "New London"s in the USA, plus others in Canada, Bermuda, and Norway, it turns out
MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 1 month ago
There’s also a London on a random Atoll i’ve found on Wikipedia last week. It’s a banana plantage.

New London is a shitty town in Connecticut

More about other comments than the post itself: why are everyone so aggressive here, what the hell?? 😭
Return_of_Chippy@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Well… maybe its me and the terrible environment I create in some of my shitposts. It’s like casting an AOE poison spell when I say X thing everyone here likes is bad. Tends to create a somewhat hostile comment section. Maybe it’s that a ton of people on Lemmy believe everything they think is objectively correct.

Worst place about living in London Ontario. You’re living in London Ontario

Yeah, a mom from London Ontario would tell their kid this is cool.

BurntWits@sh.itjust.works 1 month ago
I can spot your account a mile away. (That’s a good thing)
Also London Ontario has some nice areas and some shitty areas like anywhere else but it’s not a bad city all in all. I don’t think I’d move there but I’ve been many times and it’s alright.
orioler25@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Guess it depends on your favourite strip mall.

Funny thing is... there's 10+ McDonald's' within walking distance of Big Ben.
wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 1 month ago
As an American, you vastly overestimate the radius of ‘walking distance’ from a given point
fonix232@fedia.io 1 month ago
These are all distances I've walked a number of times... often drunk.
MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 1 month ago
10 minutes, otherwise you’d take a bus.
HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 month ago
Yeah but how many Ryan goslings are there
