All of that work and idiocy to load the frig ON (not IN) the trunk...

...because $50 for a rental truck was just too mind blowing to accomplish.

People in my country just ask their neighbor if they can borrow their truck for an hour.

HAHAHAHAHAAAA!!! Oh, wait... that's me!

KCX_335xi · 08-26-2011, 01:35 PM

Did I attack Canada by what I said? No, I merely stated where I come from we ask neighbors for the use of their objects to avoid paying truck rental fees.

Then you state American drivers do the dumbest shit. Don't try and be aggressive, it adds nothing to your comment.

We are all humans, we will all inevitably do stupid shit regardless of geographical origin. Got it?

Are you serious? This is an article from Canada...So yes, you did indirectly, attack Canada...Moreover, you did not say "Where I come from"...You stated "In my country"...Though you have not directly attacked Canada, one would have to be an idiot to not realize that you are in fact offending Canada by stating "people in my country just ask their neighbour"...

You are basically saying "In my country, we do the smarter thing"...

Moreover, I'm not sure why you would even state that because:
In my country, someone doing this makes it to the news....
In your country, this is an everyday thing....I've seen plenty of stupidly oversized loads on the vehicle in america...and I'm not even talking about the people inside the car (though they too are most likely oversized loads).

Whether or not you meant it... that statement does come off a little offensive... (with a hint of superiority) especially when "in your country" (and your state for that matter) you have things like this going on....

http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/441950...d-call-police/

So let's see if we can play nice and everyone agree that there are stupid drivers everywhere.

Good news guys the battle of north America is over, the Indians snuck in and took the trophy!

Looks like a fake, no tension on the wires/cables/cords holding it, suspension looks normal as gap between rear fender and tires looks the same as front to me

You didn't do any wrong Odom, here in Canada there are lots of people who will willingly misinterpret just about anything you say so as to pull their political correctness revolver on you and shoot you in the gut. They did the same thing to me, they ganged up, actually:

But as you can see from that thread, there are also people who take things in their proper context and strive to understand the intention of the poster before lynching him. You just happened upon a trigger-happy hyper-sensitive gunslinger. We're not all like that up here.
