Well if you don't like my reasoning, (fill in the blanks).

I still think the original post didn't make any ****ing sense, whatsoever!


Cheers MATES!

By the way, starting Monday I will be one of the Taxpayers of Canada. I am glad to inform you that I just accepted an offer for a high-paying IT job with a multinational company.

You can continue to hassle apple seeds to the jalapeno dips, you tree-huggin-commie!

Congratulations to you - I wish you luck in your new job :)
However, if you are in real life as you present yourself on this thread, then I don't think you'll be received too well, either in the job, or in Canada.

Re: My views about Canada.
 
Since returning to Canada, I have been quite surprised as to how homophobic Canadians really are. Canadians seem to pride themselves on how open they are to different races,religions and lifestyles but i have to say that it appears to be all a facade (please don't attack,leture,or bombard me with nonsense if that isn't spelled correctly(or should i say well or right......i shall get my shield ready).
Atleast in the Uk I think people are more upfront about their feelings and views. I say better the Devil you know ...........

There's someone on the street outside right now shouting obscenities about people of another race. I don't see any people of that race so I suppose he's stopped short of being in anyone's face. There's usually someone screaming and swearing about some absent minority group. I ignore them, it's a free-ish country and everyone has to have someone to hate.
