Hehe Canada, them silly people, here's an exerpt from a Canadian clan leader while playing CS scrimmage (slightly paraphrased, it was so funny I memorized it)
Me: "scrim?"
CanadaGuy: "yes, 5 v 5?"
Me: "yup, you in cal-o?"
CanadaGuy: "yea, here's the ip, 22.222.222.22:27015 pass: scrim"
Me: "I thought you were from the west, this ping is horrible?"
CanadaGuy (before I knew he was canadian of course): "We are, where are you from?"
Me: "California"
CanadaGuy: "Is that east or west?"
<Whole room, dead silent, then busts out laughing>
Me: "What the hell? Are their two Californias?"
CanadaGuy: "Maybe"
Me: "Arnold Schwarzeneggar ought to kick your arse"
CanadaGuy: "Oh it's because I'm Canadian, I don't know your states"
Me: "Figures."
<log off, whole room resumes with laughter>
I could have SWORN west Canadians know some of the states, especially ones as big as California. Maybe not but I found that extraordinarily funny.
