Examples of Canadians in Mudding Situations

Postby Ulnd » Mon Mar 05, 2001 10:07 pm

Example #1

Tiamat enshrouds you in a mist of blood with her deadly hit!
OUCH! That really did HURT!
Tiamat half kills you with her mighty hit!
YIKES! Another hit like that, and you've had it!!
Tiamat's final blow sends you to meet your maker.
With a final blow, you feel yourself falling to the ground.

Welcome to Sojourn MUD

Canadian tells Tiamat 'sorry bout that, did'nt mean to bump into you there'


Example #2

You swring_really_badly and sending your {weapon} flying!

A podwife picks up a {weapon}.
A podwife wields a {weapon}.

You say 'sorry about that, did that belong to you?.'

Example #3

Tiamat lies here bleeding and will die soon without aid.

You bandage Tiamat whose wounds appear not quite so life threatning.

You say 'sorry bout that eh, I don't know what the heck came over me.'

You blush furiously.

Example # 3.

You shout 'FS Titanium ring, 2k +7%GST +14%PST'

The End.

Canadian mudder:

Canuck: Whatddaya mean I HAVE TO PAY FOR TRAINING?!? Education is FREE in Canada, ya know.

Guild master: Out wi'ya socialist scum!

Shopkeeper: That'll be 12 gold for those healing potions.

Canuck: uhh, at home we get health care for FREE, ya know.

Shopkeeper: Guards!



Canuck (talking with Lord P.): These damn *Merkins* they actually think that North America is only comprised of the United States–uhh, what about Canada, and Mexico, and the rest of the "Americas," ya know.

Lord P: Out of my way peasant.



Canuk1: I swear I can't stand USians, to hear them tell it they are the only country that matters in the world, and such a dirty country, crime, pollution, guns everywhere; truly a shithole.

Canuk2: Right, right, I so agree. (Pause) So when do you return for school at UCLA?

Canuk1: Oh, next month, I'm really excited!

Canuk2: Yeah, LA is such a cool place, I'm so jealous.

You can tell you're a Canadian living in the USA when . . .

1) everyone teases you because you say "about" *properly*.
2) everyone teases you because you say "eh" once in a while.
3) everyone assumes you speak French.
4) you need to call the police and have to call four different numbers before you locate the correct one.
5) you can't find any Aero bars, Coffee Crisps or Fudgee-Os.
6) you get bewildered at all the paperwork that has to be filled out every time you go to the hospital.
7) the first thing a nurse asks you is "do you have insurance?" instead of "what seems to be the problem?"
8) you realize there's no place to call and get doctor recommendations unless it's a place the doctors paid to be referred by.
9) you see a lot of guns.
10) you are travelling to and from via AmTrak and notice that the TWO US Customs officers are wearing guns and the EIGHT Canadian Customs officers just have dogs.
11) people say they can tell you are Canadian because you are very polite. *ROFL*
12) people automatically think you know Jane Doe from Alberta and you are from Southern Ontario.
13) people try to get you into a long and involved discussion about how Québéc should separate.
14) people you meet laugh and poke fun at Canada's Health Care surgery waiting list and you are told your US surgery has to be scheduled for February because the hospital is all booked till then.
15) people you meet laugh and poke fun at Canada's emergency room "situation" and you end up waiting -- suffering from pneumonia, mind you -- over an 1½ hours in an American waiting room. While you wait you watch emergency patients being stuck on beds in the corridors because there is no bed space. Your spouse finally drags you out of there and has to call 15 doctors before he finds one that accepts your insurance plan and see you right away.

Thanks! I think may now finally have the right argument I need to win the fiance over to living up here instead of dragging me south of the border.

She can't possibly expect me to live without Coffe Crisps! I swear it was demonic possession that had me propose to an american - honest!

Oh and just so you all can feel my pain, her father is a doctor - you have no idea just how often I hear about the terrible state of my socialist health care system... *moan*

That's right, no Coffee Crisp, Aero bars or Fudgee-Os. I did find a Canuck web site that delivers though, and every few months I plunk down $30 for some REAL snacks. They even carry President's Choice and Swiss Chalet dipping sauce :P

As for the US health care system -- OMG don't get me started!

One thing Canadians have going for them is the SIMPLE fact that they can go to ANY doctor they want -- so long as they are accepting patients and it's not a specialist, of course. Even down here you need referrals to see a specialist.

All anyone in Canada that is new to a city or region has to do is visit the nearest hosiptal and ask for a list of local doctors. Then you just call them. Or you ask people who their doctor is. Then you just call them.

Down here you have to get an approved list from your insurance company and even THAT doesn't guarantee that the doctor on that list is still accepting that insurance plan. It took us a month to find a decent pediatrician for our daughter and then a month later we received a notice that they were no longer dealing with our insurance company due to "difficulities".

One good thing that came out of the emergency room incident was the fact that the doctor that would see me right away turned out to be one heck of a doctor and she's now our family doctor.

Until her office decides our insurance company is a PITA, of course.

It's really my only gripe about the US of A, seriously.

Oh, and the postal service down here? HAHAHAH! They have Canada beat HANDS DOWN! Man, these guys rule! Not only are the stamps cheaper, but the carriers have their own little trucks to drive around. No buses for these guys :P They even deliver mail on SATURDAYS and pick up mail right at your door! Mail sent to someone in the same city usually gets there the NEXT DAY! Another state? Usually THREE days! Can't beat the US postal service!

Oh my LORD!

Roan you brought tears to my eyes, the U.S. Postal system rules, hahahahahahaha.

Now maybe I take them for granted because I've lived here all my life, but there are hundreds of thousands of letters lost all the time =P The mail slows down just about every holiday, I've had it take 12 days to get across town during christmas season! And worst of all, they are notorious for going nuts and shooting their co-workers, hence the phrase "going postal".

P.S. I thought the little trucks comment was so funny though, gosh that made me laugh.

Roan,

Maybe it would be faster to mail around trying to find a doctor down there?

bah, Elscint, you DO take them for granted. A letter mailed in Canada for delivery in the same city usually takes THREE days. To another province -- ONE WEEK! Now, granted Canada is bigger than the US, but geez, not THAT big. I think they're delivering via dog sled at times :P

As for the trucks, Canadian Postal Workers ride buses, they don't get any vehicles to ride around in. Mail gets lost and slows down at Christmas too up there.

Seriously, count your blessings :P
