ciroccojHappy April Fools!
From Sarah, here's a few links honouring the day:
And from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
a_dawn, some Canadiana from the Canadian World Domination site. A lot of it is kind of in-jokey, so apologies to Australians and Americans who follow the links and don't quite get it.
1. You know all the words to "If I had a million dollars" by The Barenaked Ladies, including the inter-stanza banter between Steven and Ed.
2. You dismiss all beers under 6% as "for children and the elderly."
9. You wonder why there isn't a 5 dollar coin, as you can only use more change.
13. You have memorized the Heritage Foundation's Heritage Moments, including your favourites, "Burnt Toast!", "You know I canna read a word...", "One day we have tar paper roof!" and "Kanata". GOD HELP ME, I KNOW ALL OF THESE. Must. Kill. Heritage. Foundation.
14. You can sing "O' Canada" in French and actually know what the words mean!!
30. You use a red pen on your non-Canadian textbooks and fill in the missing 'u's from labor, honor, and color. ::snicker::
31. You know the French equivalents of "free", "prize" and "no sugar added", thanks to your extensive education in bilingual cereal packaging.
36. You can do the hand actions to Sharon, Lois and Bram's "Skin-a-marinki-dinki-do".
43. You think -10C is mild weather.
46. You know the ingredients for poutine.
47. You automatically read 'Z' as 'Zed' and don't give a damn that it doesn't rhyme with "now I know my abcs".
54. You brag about the sweet herb in BC. >:)
55. You know the chorus of "The Log Driver's Waltz" and are particularly fond of the 'whirling down and down' bit. That's where the log driver learns to step lightly,
It's birling down, a down white water
A log drivers waltz pleases girls com-pletely
I am in serious need of help. Must check maple sugar/blood ratio.
From Sarah, here's a few links honouring the day:
- Say It Ain't So! for LOTR fans.
- Great April Fools Hoaxes. I knew about the Spaghetti Harvest, the Taco Liberty Bell and the Alabaman value of Pi. There's 97 others listed here.

- Signs you might be too Canadian.
- ... and my absolute favourite, the Hate Mail site. Proving once more that you really don't need more than two brain cells to rub together in order to become confused on the Web.
