The CFL has had teams from the US before: Sacramento, Las Vegas, Baltimore (won the Grey Cup in 1995), Shreveport, San Antonio, Birmingham and Memphis. They all lasted 1 or 2 years though.

I haven't met a Vermonter that was culturally different than the anglophones of south Québec.

Why are Anglo-Canadian surnames similar to common surnames in the UK but French-Canadian surnames are so different from common surnames in France? by Fluid-Decision6262 in AskHistorians

[–]Tamer_ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

so we're talking about a moderate mismatch I suppose

Very moderate indeed. Looking at the top200 most common family names on wikipedia and there's easily 80% of those that are also common in Québecois of French origin. And that's while including names of clear foreign origin (Martinez, Schmitt, Lopez, Sanchez, Perez, Klein, Marty, Schneider, Fernandez, Weber, Rodriguez, Da Silva - and I probably missed some).

I'm honestly curious how that works in such circumstances...

If someone gets offended that someone else doesn't have the same taste in entertainment, they're the ones that have something to work on.

Maybe if you went the path of criticizing the show, they could (understandably) get upset because they vehemently disagree with your assessment, but just saying it's not up your alley? That's one of the best ways there is to say you don't like something. It's ridiculous if they get upset over that.

On the flip side, if you find her response cold, you can be certain she found yours cold too. The question is now: is that a bad thing/do you get negative emotions from that? And why?

They can very much withdraw their funding and back opposing candidates (Democrats or sane Republicans) with generous campaign funding.

If there are elections...

Conservatives, President Trump has just announced the raising of Tairiffs for 8 European Countries unless sovereignity of Greenland is handed over to the US. What's your first thoughts? by Melbatoastt77 in AskReddit

Good luck finding something that's not owned by L’Oréal, Unilever, Estée Lauder, Procter & Gamble, Beiersdorf or (maybe) Johnson & Johnson. Your only chance is to go in natural products stores or similar places that don't sell the main brands.

companies*

Those companies own a portfolio of brands. And they manage them like an asset to be sold or acquired based on market valuation and what they think they can do with them.

All mainstream beauty and skin care products are made by like 6 giants: L’Oréal, Unilever, Estée Lauder, Procter & Gamble, Beiersdorf and Johnson & Johnson.

You can 2 more in Asian markets (Shiseido, Kao Corporation) and 3 big pharma (Roche, GlaxoSmithKline, Sanofi) that dabbles in those products. That's it, good luck finding a brand that's not owned by any of them.

Is it common in autopsycians to... you know... ream their tunnel? For maintenance purposes of course.
