Some comments/questions: 1) It IS very true that "Canadian Girls Kick Ass" 2) Do you always demand to have the channel clicker at a bar? 3) You should teach "Jay" how to give the finger correctly 4) What did Carrie have to say? 5) What goes in that ring on your collar? 6) Is Errol in a band? 7) I won't ask about the men's briefs 8) Grolsch king cans RULE! 9) Pyramids went out of style in the early1980s 10) Is Danielle a plumber or a fridge repairman? 11) Who is "Dionusus" and does he know that you drink so much?
