Canadian Words Everyone Should Know

Welcome! We realized that in our blog, we do not express what we do everyday. So we decided to devote the first sentence of some posts, to tell you what we are doing. However, we already broke this chain, seeing as though this is the third sentence, and we won't be telling you about our life until the fourth sentence. Crud! This is now the sixth sentence, so we can't tell you until the seventh! Or is this now the fifth sentence, because a sentence needs a noun, a verb, and a complete thought? Man, we screwed this up. We are starting over. 

We are eating pizza and drinking pop, except for one of us who is drinking apple juice.

Now... words that everyone should know in Canadian

Chesterfield: a sofa, or a couch.

Double-Double: a cup of coffee from Tim Horton's with two creams and two sugars.

Joe Job: low class, low paying job.

Tuque: a knitted winter hat.

And here they are in a sentence.

I leave my joe job, wearing my tuque, and return home to sit on my chesterfield while drinking a double-double.

Fun Facts:
Did you know that 110% of Americans can't tell the difference between ducks and squash?

Pigs can't look up at the sky.

A ducks quack doesn't echo.

The one discernible way to tell the difference between a squash and a duck is to have them screech. The one that makes a sound that echoes, is the squash.

It is illegal to catch a fish with a lasso in Texas.

Quotes:
"Putting the laughter back into manslaughter."

"When shooting a mime, don't use a silencer or his friends will hear you."

"I dream of a better tomorrow, where chickens can cross the road and not be questioned about their motives."

"Being dyslexic has its drawbacks. I once went to a toga party dressed as a goat."

"Imagine there were no hypothetical situations."

"Evening news is where they being with 'Good evening', and then proceed to tell you why it isn't."
