I seriously love how every single topic on here always goes completely off topic. from craig's accent to political issues laugh.gif

It's interesting though. and most of the time it is my fault becuase I ramble myself into different subjects.

and yes Stephanie, I really think people should know more about guns. My stepdad used to (or still) has guns, but if he does they are somewhere else other than the house (it's a long story but he goes and stays at many places). What I think is VERY important is having guns locked away really really safetly from children. that is the top most important thing if you are going to have guns in the house. But in Canada you guys don't seem to have things like school shootings and I'm sure your crimes involving guns are lower than ours. I think the US needs stricter rules on guns personally
cordova94
Yeah you are right. Our gun laws are way stricter (though still a ways from being sensible). Though I have access to guns because of my dad, in order for me to acquire one myself, I have to go through a registration and licencing process (not everyone does this though, we are still in transition I think). And it is illegal to have a loaded or unlocked gun in any residential house, unless you are a cop or something......in that case I am not completely sure. It's strange because per capita, Canadians have more guns than Americans but we don't have the problems you seem to have. I think it's more in the mentality. Americans live more in a culture of fear than Canadians, we feel less of a need to protect ourselves from unknown dangers. American government and media seem to like to keep the population perpetually afraid.

In Canada there are over 10 million guns in 7 million homes.

The thing with Bowling For Columbine is that they Micheal Moore made Canadians sound like saints. He went to Windsor and Sarnia to prove that there are less shootings in Canada or whatever you want to call it. If you go to places like Montreal, Vancouver and Toronto, those are the cities where most of the murders take place. He should have went to one of those cities to at least say that there are still killings. They made Canada sound like a paradise or something.

Well he also sounds half asleep when he talks too....maybe it's the pot.... blink.gif

Have you heard this:
http://s48.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=06MFPVN...FR17NIU3T9WESLF

It's Craig talking for some radio show. What is he saying? I don't understand anything but something like: "I'll be right here..."
allie9609
HAHA! laugh.gif What a classic! biggrin.gif That's the most incoherant I've ever heard Craig speak laugh.gif .
I think it was something like:

"Awww you got this hight right so it's okay like. I'll just, I'll just, this is about it, no wait. I'll be out here a little while, so, so I ain't got, yeah that's right."
laugh.gif

I love it so much, that quote is going in my sig, even though I probably didn't get it completely right, I don't care. It's going in laugh.gif . I hope it doesn't turn out to be something that makes sense (although I highly doubt it biggrin.gif ) it would ruin the fun. Awww I love Craig sometimes, heh heh laugh.gif .

This is also true. Michael Moore is definitely a propagandist. But what I like about him is that he does the same things as the people he is against, but twists it around on them. So funny. Canada definitely has it's share of problems too. For example, we love to complain about how the US exploits us (which they do) but look who we have in power!!! We let the US do it so can we really blame them? Our government is a fucking mess, we have lost democracy....unless your idea of democracy is a choice between a liar (Martin), a militaristic, pro-life psycho (Harper) or a middle class hater (Layton). I don't how how many of you Canadian members voted last election but I for one, saw no real choice on my ballot.

For the record though, I like Layton. THe problem with the NDP is that they want so many social programs that for poorer provinces it results in people like my mom working her ass off to contribute to social programs that she is not allowed to take part in (because of her salary level) so that people who do not or cannot work can live better than her. Somehow doesn't seem fair. Layton is a good guy though. He is better than the other two morons.

Anyway, I am done my political rant. Thanks for letting me get that out.
kaleidoscope_eyes
^^I don't know anything that's going on with the whole political thing in Canada. I've just completely given up on that. I'm not even old enough to vote anyway. It's still good to know about though. But in the end, they're all idiots to me. And with that whole thing that you said with Layton and how he's trying to do all those social programs is stupid. I hate to judge so fast seeing as I barely know anything on the subject, but from what you said, I have to agree, it does sound unfair.

I think he was really tired...or maybe he was thinking about whatever the hell he was trying to do so bad that the words just kind of slured...and collided and made no sense laugh.gif I love how they made it into a contest, I almost died when I heard that the contest was to decifer what he was trying to say ....but how did the radio station know what the real answer was? huh.gif ...oh and I couldn't understand the dude, what did craig leave in the studio and they were giving away?

Damn it expired and i wanted to hear them talk about craig's buscuits laugh.gif I never understood that word....even though it was the radio guy.
whats_an_onion
wasnt the prize craigs plectrum he left behind?? thats what i heard ne way. blink.gif
allie9609
Yeah, that sounds a bit more plausible than cookies laugh.gif .
Mikanie
I think it's a mix of either Aussie, American and British... well things change with touring. cool.gif

Aww, I was hoping Craig left behind his biscuits... laugh.gif tongue.gif
whats_an_onion
aww it would be really good if it was some cookies he left, what would you do if you won them tho? you wouldnt want to eat them but you couldnt save them because theyd go off!!
allie9609
You could always have them cryogentically frozen, that way people in 1000 years could go and marvel at Craig's cookies in perfect condition. wink.gif

I would be wondering why Craig had cookies to begin with. Don't you think they would be smashed or half-eaten if they belonged to Craig? laugh.gif tongue.gif
allie9609
^All the more reason to treasure them *goes into convulsions of joy on the floor at the thought of owning some of Craigs precious cookie crumbs* rolleyes.gif tongue.gif .
ultrasex
Oh, Allie. laugh.gif I think I'd rather have the half-eaten cookies than cookie dust. That way I can take saliva samples from the cookies and have my very own clone of Craig. laugh.gif
allie9609
Well what do you know? I've been doing genetics as part of my degree... hmmmmm *ponders evily* ph34r.gif
ultrasex
tongue.gif I'm not sure if another Craig would be a good idea though. I think one is enough, although it would benice to have Craig around the house to do chores and teach me guitar without ripping the house to shreds. tongue.gif Maybe we can make the clone actually like touring and whatnot, that way the original Craig can record more things and make more CD's. tongue.gif But a Craig that likes touring just wouldnt be the same...
allie9609
Well since the dislike of touring is probably because of the Aspergers... In some people Aspergers is caused by a deletion on the X chromosome - so all you'd need to do is fill up the deletion on the cloned chromosome with a coding region taken from someone else's X-chrom and there you go. Ta da! (I'm sounding like a bit of a mad scientist here tongue.gif )
user posted image

Heh heh, nah I'd never want to change my Craig clone - the original is perfect so why change it? tongue.gif (not that what I said about transforming the DNA from another person into the deletion region of the subject would work anyway since it would cause other problems... but that's beside the point. It's not like I'd actually do it.... MUAHAHAHAHAAAAA...uuhh, I mean hehehe... *cough* unsure.gif tongue.gif ).
ultrasex
That actually made sense to me. I feel smart. happy.gif tongue.gif

We're pretty on topic, I mean the topic is of Craig's accent, and we are talking about Craig after all, just not his accent. I think I did good, usually I talk about things that totally arent related to the topic at all. laugh.gif

To be completely on topic though: Craig's accent is one of the cutest things I've ever heard. happy.gif
whats_an_onion
id have his accent if i could and if i was a boy tongue.gif
marilyn_monroe
Yeah if it was Craig's cookies they would be half eaten or crushed laugh.gif

Allie is on to something isin't she tongue.gif ....yeah, who would want to change a Craig clone? he's perfect just the way he is tongue.gif ...ok I think I read too much of that Mr. Rodgers book laugh.gif
Feh
What are bands that Craig likes?

Besides The Verge, Pavement, The Kinks, The Beatles, Nirvana..etc.

I would like to get into some of them aswell.
rockoffmypants
stone temple pilots....i think.
Feh
I really like The Kinks, I haven't heard much of the other two..save nirvana and beatles, which everyone has heard.
rockoffmypants
yeah i started really liking the kinks. theyre cool.
Feh
You ever listen to launchcast?
It's like a personalized radio station, it's nice to learn about new music.
Thomhatesmusic
Blur.
-talknerdytome-
muse too, im pretty sure?
Thomhatesmusic
Oh yeah, of course Muse.

Radiohead.
Feh
Blur, a band? or a random comment..

Yeah that's right, he likes Muse. they're swedish..aren' they?
Rusty
What bands does CRAIG like?

Well, you'd better ask HIM! tongue.gif






anyway, what a strange reason to get into bands...if he liked Britney Spears (sorry CRAIG!), would you still like to "get into" her?

Despite all my love for him, I detest The Beatles and will never force myself to listen to them, no matter what
Feh
-writes all these down-
Feh
Oh, I think he likes the Dandy Worhols too. they're awesome.
Thomhatesmusic
Muse are british.

And are you fuckin serious when you're saying you don't know Blur?
rockoffmypants
O.O

who doesnt know blur???
Rusty
he likes THE MUSIC as well

and ohmy.gif Depeche Mode ohmy.gif
Feh
Vinny, you're strange.
Feh
I know blur..haha.

That's something personal, whenever my friend doesn't have anything to say, she says blur instead of blah or peh or something.

And I'm stupid because of allergy medicine today.
rockoffmypants
dont say nothing, you dont know blur.


wow, sorry, but that was weird.

i think he likes the vines.
