Do you guys call your black person an African-Canadian?

We call him Steve.

who is tim horton?

Picture drinking coffee that all tastes like hot chocolate and has the maximum amount of caffeine allowed in a coffee drink in North America(60 or something %? not sure, would have to look that up), donuts that you can get for 10 cents each(20 mini-donuts for $2 box), and hot chocolate just as awesome, and thats Tim Horton's, which is bigger then Starbucks in Canada.

Seriously, for the most part; Starbucks has been run out of franchising in Canada by Tim Horton's.. there are literally Tim Horton's across the street from Tim Horton's and a Tim Horton's in every fucking gas station. :<

I don't even have a huge sense of family, not like Indian or Italian families seem to, counry doesn't mean a whole lot to me, I kinda like Toronto, but more in a pragmatic sense, in that it has the features I'd want in a place to live

I think to me, ideals and principles are more important than something collective like a country or national identity (or religious group but let's ignore thaat can o' worms)

I'm kind of the same way as both of you actually, in the sense that I have no huge concept or sense or family or commitment to where my roots are.

London, ONT is actually called a Quicksand City by people who live here, no matter how often you leave or you want to get out of it, anyone who does get out moves to Toronto or Vancouver.

But if you're unlucky you end up getting sucked back in by those roots and stuck in a shithole with no real culture of its own for a long time, so I've learned that my mindset to gtfo of here is probably going to save my ass.

When we were touring my American girlfriend around Canada for the first time, Steve was honestly part of the sights we showed her. Canada's only actual token black guy. He might look different sometimes when you see him, but it's honestly only one guy just fitting into the different positions we require him in. You'll never see any of Steve's family, it's just him, alone.

She's also terrified of the Teetering Walrus commercial and Marine Land song, "It'sa..and it goes..teetery..and tottery and..*fake cry* and..ITS A WALRUS AND IT'S GOING TO FALL AND KILL US AND THE MARINE LAND AND AND" She's the good kind of crazy.

I'm going to get some hortons hot chocolate and a bagel and probably get some more hortons tomorrow morning.

[Shiroikage]

Hot chocolate is my poison of choice.

[gamez]

It's so delicious, and when people look at you like you're a little kid ordering the chocolate milk, you order it anyways.. or an english toffee or french vanilla(some stupid locations weren't carrying English Toffee so I switched to French).

Also, apple fritters onry...

[Blarg]

They fucked up my hot chocolate, it tasted like it was watered down. Their toaster was also turned off so I had to heat the bagel myself.

I also paid 350 and it cost 342 and then the girl said that there was no change. I don't really care about change under 10c but I don't see how she thought I paid exact change.

[gamez]

Sounds like an unprepared lazy girl tbh, she should've been on the ball with that stuff. IT'S TIM HORTON'S, YOU MUST HAVE QUALITY.

On a side note, Tim Horton's is pretty wasteful to a degree despite the canadian loving-peace hugging persona.

They're required to literally throw out barrels full of donuts per location every night if they've not sold before night shift bakes new ones.

Employees can take home whatever they want before it gets thrown out, but they don't donate it to homeless shelters who are willing to pick it up etc, it's against the franchise rules; so as not to be any legal liability by having their name on the boxes.

FUCKING CRIMINALS
MAKE HOT CHOCOLATE WITH THEIR BLOOD
