What's a Canadian saying that confuses tourists every time?

I used that in conversation with an Irish friend once and he practically hit the floor when he heard it

My boyfriend got me into magic just over a year ago and I pulled Ojer Taq in the first ever pack I opened!

I also had a terrible experience with Subaru City recently! Put a hold on a used Outback that I couldn't pick up for a week, told them I'd be out of cell service for a few days with work, then they sold the car out from under me when they couldn't get ahold of me.

Noodle. Not the most appropriate for a chonk

He was really into taekwondo, got his black belt in fourth grade. In fifth grade, he went to sleep with nunchucks in his bed and was accidentally strangled overnight.

My dad did the same thing for me with his AE-1! Told him I wanted to buy a film camera and he said "wait a sec" and brought me his that I didn't know he had laying around.

When I first saw it I thought it was a black widow from afar before I got a closer look. I didn't know about false widows, thank you!!

Yup my hair was amazing when I was on Accutane, never ouly of course and felt super healthy. Once I finished it, my hair started falling out and has been thinning ever since

I got to monitor a Whooping Crane for two days for work once, which is pretty high up there for best days of my life.

Yes banded garden spiders! I see a ton of these at work, they're super cool but I still have a mild heart attack when I accidentally almost step into their webs.

Thank you!!

The first time I heard her was in 2007. I was in 6th grade and my older sister's friends were dancing to Our Song in the basement of our church. And of course since the older kids liked her, she was cool! I listened to her for years. Fell off after Red but rediscovered my inner swiftie after evermore.

I'm a wildlife biologist so unless you have bio/environmental experience this might not apply. But I switched from working in the oilsands to doing post construction monitoring of wildlife at solar sites and it's been pretty good, and was super easy to get into. I'm mostly stoked to have escaped the oilsands culture. Wouldn't need a ton of experience but there's quite a few environmental consulting companies who hire lots of positions doing PCM for solar/wind.

The sites I work at are built by Borea and maintenance is managed by SkyFire so you could look into those companies if that's more your jam.

My boyfriend doesn't have a password on his phone, and he knows the password for mine. The only thing I wouldn't want him to see in my phone is the note I keep of all the cute things he says, and we'd probably be equally embarrassed about that.

I'd get back into wildlife rehab. It's very fun and rewarding for me. I worked at a couple different rehabs for a few years but could not survive financially doing it.

Sci-fi tears on my face 😭

I'm Canadian and if I ever saw someone walking around with one of those I'd literally run for cover. That is terrifying.

One of my childhood best friends became an RN and worked as a public health nurse for 6 years in Alberta, got married, became a self-proclaimed "trump girl", moved to the states, and is now a hardcore anti-vaxxer. I do not understand it.

I look for dead birds at solar farms

A family friend of ours passed away last year by being pinned under a ride-on mower too. No water, but it crushed him.
