The two things
is best known for, almost too on the nose.It’s tough to make an advertisement for school shooters
that burger is too absurdly constructed to eat without making a mess. that plane is too over-engineered to fly without crashing. they really are the same thing.
Where you need a Bowie knife stabbed down the middle to keep the burger together, and an unhinged jaw to take a bite.
God Canada is such a fucking embarrassing country. Just can’t stop licking America’s boot. “Look at us, we help make your burgers and wunderwaffe, we’ll do whatever you want so long as you let us call ourselves a sovereign nation”. It’s pathetic, the keystone of Canadian “culture”
is not being America and they can’t even commit to that!You can’t say they don’t know their audience.
I don’t understand Canadian nationalism, it’s always like “Look how much American boot we lick, aren’t we great?”
Even Australian nationalism isn’t that blatant with their America worship.
I mean, Canadian nationalism was based off the adoration of its role as junior imperial partner of Britain, the biggest empire of the time, it’s no wonder when US, its neighbor, replaced Britain as the unipolar hegemony, Canada followed suit.
Something about being a loyalist nation during the US counter-revolutionary war, founded on respecting decorum of the law while more ‘politely’ killing off Indigenous people does that to someone, I guess
Makes Australia look more rebellious in comparison
processed in Iowa
They always talk like this. Everyone always talks like this. We know cattle doesn’t magically turn into meat, so who are you trying to fool? Yourself?
Your all american freedom borger was slaughtered in Iowa. Is that so hard to say?
i don’t think “processed” is (primarily) serving as a euphemism here, cows are slaughtered, butchered, off-cut meat is ground up, mixed with whatever sawdust and other stuff they’re allowed to put in it, and depending on the supply chain they may even be forming the burger patties and searing fake grill lines onto them prior to flash-freezing and packaging for shipping to the restaurant.
The worst fucking fast food and the worst fucking plane lmao
Elbows up the Canadians’ ass

That burger also looks kind of shit, not gonna lie.
We turn the oil sands into a great desolate moonscape that presages a biosphere ravaged by rapid climate change together!
fucking landing gear and horizantal tail? fucking hell you might as well make all the aircraft by yourself canada. most critical components of aircraft lmao.
letting usa make the extremely minor jobs like radar, engine, fuselage and assembly so they don’t feel useless. you should have claimed your intentions to invade usa before trump hahahahah
You got Canadians in concentration camps there. Hell one died. Pathetic
cw for meat maybe?
