[Joke] Canadians in Hell


Recommended Posts

Two guys from Toronto die and wake up in hell.

The next day the devil stops in to check on them and sees them dressed in parkas, mittens and toques warming themselves around the fire. The devil asks them, "What are you doing? Isn?t it hot enough for you?"

The two guys reply, "Well, you know, we?re from Canada, the land of snow and ice and cold. We?re just happy for a chance to warm up a little bit, eh."

The devil decides that these two aren?t miserable enough and turns up the heat.

The next morning he stops in again and there they are, still dressed in parkas, toques and mittens. The devil asks them again, "It?s awfully hot down here, can?t you guys feel it?"

Again the two guys reply, "Well, like we told ya yesterday, we?re from Canada, the land of snow and ice and cold. We?re just happy for a chance to warm up a little bit, eh."

This gets the devil a little steamed up and he decides to fix these two guys. He cranks the heat up as high as it will go. The people are wailing and screaming everywhere. He stops by the room with the two guys from Canada and finds them in light jackets and bucket hats, grilling sausage and drinking beer.

The devil is astonished, "Everyone down here is in abject misery, and you two seem to be enjoying yourselves."

The two Canadians reply, "Well, ya know, we don?t get too much warm weather up there in Toronto so we?ve just got to have a cook-out when the weather?s THIS nice."

The devil is absolutely furious, he can hardly see straight. Finally he comes up with the answer. The two guys love the heat because they have been cold all their lives. The devil decides to turn all the heat off in hell.

The next morning, the temperature is below zero, icicles are hanging everywhere; people are shivering so bad that they are unable to do anything but wail, moan and gnash their teeth.

The devil smiles and heads for the room with the two Canadians.

He gets there and finds them back in their parkas, toques, and mittens. NOW they are jumping up and down, cheering, yelling and screaming like mad men!!!

The devil is dumbfounded, "I don?t understand, when I turn up the heat you?re happy. Now it?s freezing cold and you?re still happy. What is wrong with you two???"

The Torontonians look at the devil in surprise, "Well, don?t you know? If Hell freezes over, it must mean the Leafs have won the Stanley Cup."

The Toronto Maple Leafs haven't won the Stanley Cup in the National Hockey League since 1967 but still continue to sell out every game without difficultly. Every year a bunch of hopeful Toronto fans announce that this will be the year but the Leafs are often well back by Christmas.

Now, this year... The Leafs are currently ranked 8 out of 30. That is somewhat surprising considering that most experts assumed (before the season began) that they wouldn't make the playoffs.

Leafs fans are often mocked for wildly celebrating a first round playoff series win (when, in fact, you need to win four such series consecutively to win the Stanley Cup).

That station is a serious rippoff of espn logo

ESPN either partially owns it or they have some sort of deal between them. Notice the "ESPN Classic" link at the top.

Edit:

ESPN owns 30% and there once was a move to rename it ESPN Canada (according to the TSN wiki entry).

    • Formatting would be awesome if fully customised and then roll out the settings as a company wide standard.
    • I just want to know why the volume control feature in the browser version keeps appearing then disappearing, here today - gone tomorrow. Now it's gone again. Annoying as hell.
    • When you have only lies and blood libels to present, you've lost. And how hard is it for you to look up BBC and AP? You hate Jews, just admit it.
    • This article does not make sense and it’s very evident, the bug wasn’t confirmed to exist, because the application itself runs on editions of Windows which make it impossible to run Hyper-V VMs on, “Basically, Claude Desktop on Windows spins up a 1.8GB Hyper-V virtual machine if you use Claude Cowork or agent mode even once.”, suggests the bug is caused by something else otherwise it would only happen to users with the capability of running Hyper-V VMs and that’s only if Hyper-V was enabled which is by default not enabled. The true issue is that the author who reported the bug used the incorrect terminology, it’s actually a container, not a VM that is being started by the way. There were users on macOS reporting the same issue, Hyper-V, doesn’t exist on that platform obviously. Every single user who confirmed the problem in the last week was either using macOS making this issue impossible to be relevant to them, or was a comment talking about WSL, which the author indicated 3 months ago was disabled.
    • “To prevent hallucination issues and keep the database clean, the platform uses a multi-agent verification loop to check code quality.” - This absolutely isn’t happening. ”Before the massive rise of LLMs, which tanked its traffic by about 50% over the last couple of years, Stack Overflow was the go-to website for millions of programmers seeking coding solutions.” - It still is trusted, because the community of users, blocked other users from submitting false and misleading answers generated by AI agents that can be convinced something it generated is actually incorrect even if it’s actually correct. The company itself doesn’t know what it wants to be so it keeps trying and failing to introduce AI features to the platform. This effort will also fail, already submitted one successful poison pill, look forward to generating more.
