That line is gold.
And true.
i don't want to be in a country with Ohio though
Hey I'm from Ohio D:
I'm so sorry that you're from Ohio
Hey now, Cincinnati is great. We got chili, we got King's Island, we got a museum with dinosaurs and a lot of historical stuff too, we got Graeter's Ice Cream, not exactly unique to Cincinnati but we have a baseball and football team that we feel very strongly about even if they don't always meet our expectations, we got one of the best zoos and botanical gardens in the United States, while it's not technically Ohio, we have the Newport Aquarium right across the river, we got all kinds of stuff!
Including corn. God we love corn.
oh, I've heard all about your Cincinnati "chili"
Positive things I'm sure. If you don't enjoy Cincinnati chili, are you even living??
Right guys? Right??
(We also enjoy regular chili, my company has an annual chili cookoff. Not Cincinnati chili, just regular chili)
Is that the chili that’s kind of like a ground beef and bean soup?
Well not really. It is kind of ground beef soup, with a lot of spices added to give it it's signature flavor. This chili, spaghetti, and cheese is a three-way. If you add beans in the chili (or onion), then it becomes a four-way (or I guess just... chili with beans in it if you put it on anything else?). If you put BOTH beans and onions in it, then it's a five-way.
🤮
It'll get renamed to 'Oh, hi eh!'
Sorry
Easy fix: Dig an Ohio-sized hole, fill Lake Erie back up with water and call it the Gulf of Intelligence.
I have some bad news
Lol, just Ohio?
Can we make some of them territories so they can’t vote.
The whole thing, can’t risk it. Plus it’s way easier to avoid any attacks on being biased if no.
However, we should make Puerto Rico a province.
Make Puerto Rico their bosses
Hell no. Puerto Ricans overwhelmingly voted for Orange babboon.
Oh booo yea ok fuck ‘em.
That isn’t just voting for the leopard who will eat your face, that’s voting the leopard who has already eaten your face.
Canadian territories get to vote though
Just don't impose a stamp tax and you should be golden.
The greatest line Carney will ever utter.
Woah is there a clip for this
I wish there was.
Oh shit i'm commenting on a beaverton article
Lol.
They didn't say they'd be keeping the people.
just a portion of magats voting would be enough to ruin canada within a decade, unless it's made only a 'territory' with a just single riding (like yukon, nwt, and nunavut each have)
We could let them be a territory for a 150-200 years like they've been letting Puerto Rico sit as one. However long it takes for Puerto Rico, add an extra 50 years.
Imagine Canada owning the Grand Canyon and Yosemite National Park.
We would be undeniably the most beautiful country in the world.
Canada already is undeniably the most beautiful country in the world. We don't need Yosemite lol
I will take the American doctors please. But not their healthcare system.
Also anyone who is cool and not a narcissistic sociopath is invited too. The rest can be left out of the deal.
USA? You mean North Mexico?
Invest in yellow light filters for Hollywood cameras, this shit is loco.
You really, really don't want the whole thing.
Just New York, Hawaii, and Alaska. They can keep the rest.
I want California I have always wanted to go there.
I,for one, will welcome our new Canadian overlords with open arms
I would love to be taken over by Canada. Can’t we just give California, Oregon and Washington the Canada please? Like all these MAGAs in the Midwest just love to talk so much shit about California and how terrible it is and how it sucks, so why should they care, right? You’d think they would welcome the idea, right? Oh but we have the big economy, and the ports, and grow a bunch of food, and make a bunch of technology. 🤔🤔🤔
Poutine or Tacos, it's a win:win
Deep south MAGAts are even worse
Annex Oregon also!
This is like going to the adoption agency and asking for the meanest, most disruptive child and then adopting that one.
We don’t want that dumpster fire. No thank you.
Some of the states are cool. Let MAGA have their own states, so they can find out for themselves how their experiment sucks.
None of the states are cool. Outside of the cities and urban areas its a red majority country. Incredibly racist and misogynist.
MAGA can hop on Elon’s rocket and fuck right off to Mars.
MY BODY IS READY.
I'll chug maple syrup. Learn to ride a moose. Whatever it takes. But please make this happen.
In Soviet Canuckistan, moose rides you
Sorry, we can only do with a 4th territory at best.
Keep it, we're good.
Nobody doing the math on the number of seats that "province" would have? All other provinces would lose their power. You think the pull Ontario and Quebec have is bad? Hooo boy.
We can do an administrative region, and pull a Puerto Rico on them.
I do wish USA was like Canada
Just do it already. I'll fight to be Canadian 💪🍁
America needs intervention to put it back in line
🌍🫡
While I would love for the PNW to become Canadian, I feel the only way out is either to secede alongside our fellow blue states (notably CA), or to wait for McDonald's to do its fucking job.
After that, we can rebuild and put not just safety rails BUT HARD LINES THAT REMIND OUR SHITTY ASS POLITICIANS WHO THEY WORK FOR.
We need complete reform because at the moment, I kinda wish the Brits would do what they are known for doing: colonizing other countries. Hell, I'm wishing we didn't have an independence day coming up right now....
The timing might work out to really live up to the legacy of independence day.
No thank you
Please fucking do this Canada
Hell make us multiple provinces.
New England province
Cascadian province
Great Lakes province
Rocky Mountains province (capitol in Colorado of course)
And the rest: dumbfuckistan
Ha! They can keep their wasteland. We don't need it.
Can I offer you New York State and all the economic power that comes with it? The US can keep Staten Island. We put our garbage there.
As somebody from Buffalo, I'd support this, but I don't think Canadians want us tbh.
Ahhh, finally! Peace!
I'm saving up!
Hahaha. For a moment I thought this was real news and some politician actually said this. Then I saw beaverton.
Make them a territory.
While I would love to be inducted into proper healthcare and the loving embrace of our northern brothers, are you sure you can swallow all that red and not just end up with diarrhea?
hurt us daddy canada, we've been bad
The US is gonna be Carnegeddoned.
idea: you guys invade and enslave all the rich white people, turn the entire thing into a streaming series.
Can we please just have our revolution and have no State? Thx
No state. Only guillotine.
I'd back this eh. I think aboot it a loot. Eh. Bagged milk.
