Living In Canada

[Lindsey]

Here's an email I received just a few nights ago. It's so true to me, and I hope you get a laugh out of it too! I'm adding some comments as well



Here is what Jeff Foxworthy has to say about Canadians:



If your local Dairy Queen is closed from September through May,
You may live in Canada .
Our walk-up Dairy Queen is closed from September through May lol

If someone in a Home Depot store offers you assistance and they don't work there,
You may live in Canada .
When Scott and I were fixing the bathroom plumbing, we went to Home Depot and a retired plumber came to help us. He didn't work there.

If you've worn shorts and a parka at the same time,
You may live in Canada .
ABSOLUTELY! It happens every spring lol


If you've had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed a wrong number,
You may live in Canada .
Can't say this one has happened to me


If 'Vacation' means going anywhere south of Detroit for the weekend,
You may live in Canada .
Yep!


If you measure distance in hours,
You may live in Canada .
Yep!


If you know several people who have hit a deer more than once,
You may live in Canada .
Definitely. I don't know how I've managed to not hit any in the 10 years I've been driving lol


If you have switched from 'heat' to 'A/C' in the same day and back again,
You may live in Canada .
Sounds like every spring and fall


If you can drive 90 km/hr through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard without flinching,
You may live in Canada .
Sometimes I flinch a little


If you install security lights on your house and garage, but leave both unlocked,
You may live in Canada .
Hahaha not in the city, but at home, yes!


If you carry jumper cables in your car and your wife knows how to use them,
You may live in Canada .
I'm not a wife, but I know how to use them


If you design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit,
You may live in Canada .
I ALWAYS wore my costumes over snowsuits when I was little!

If the speed limit on the highway is 80 km -- you're going 95 and everybody is passing you,
You may live in Canada .
Yes!

If driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with snow,
You may live in Canada .
Agree with this one too!


If you know all 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter,
and road construction,
You may live in Canada .
So true!


If you have more miles on your snow blower than your car,
You may live in Canada .
Lol I am not lucky enough to own a snowblower


If you find -2 degrees 'a little chilly',
You may live in Canada .
This morning it was -3 and I told Scott to turn on the heat in the car because it was a bit chilly


If you actually understand these jokes, and forward them to all your friends, you definitely are Canadian and proud to be.
