On March 26, 2000, the song Blame Canada from South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut was nominated for Best Original Song at the Oscars. But that night something also debuted that became an immediate hit. The I Am Canadian Rant. This is the story. 🧵 1/10

'Canadians are tolerant and kind,' said Chrétien at the event, which was attended by U.S. Ambassador Pete Hoekstra. '[But] never mistake our tolerance for lack of determination. And never, never mistake our kindness for softness.' youtu.be/AO-Yx-59jFA?...

Discworld QOTD, from Men at Arms
The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money.
Take boots, for example. He earned thirty-eight dollars a month plus allowances. A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars.
Those were the kind of boots Vimes always bought, and wore until the soles were so thin that he could tell where he was in Ankh-Morpork on a foggy night by the feel of the cobbles.
But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while the poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.
This was the Captain Samuel Vimes 'Boots' theory of socioeconomic unfairness.

LUTNICK: It is outrageous that Canada will not put US spirits on the shelf. It is insulting and disrespectful to America SHAHEEN: They won't do it because of the insults from this president and comments like yours

RT if you think giving people knighthoods is all a bit silly but still think it's hilarious that Farage still hasn't got one.

About 20 years ago my pal Will made a series of CD Christmas compilations which he’d burn off and pop in his Xmas cards. I’ve put most of the tracks on this playlist, 4.5 hours worth. Xmas music sorted. open.spotify.com/playlist/6R0...

Today’s poem is called ‘Brie Encounter’. Sorry about this one.
Brie Encounter
 
the skies are gruyere since she left me
i’ve never felt so danish blue
caught between a roquefort and a hard cheese,
i stilton’t know what to do
 
don’t give edam about the future
now my babybel’s walked out the door
can’t believe i’ve double gloucester
i camembert it any more
 
i’ve ricotta get myself together
and build my life back caerphilly
cheddar tear for the final time
say goodbye to us and halloumi
