LOL
WTF Tensor?
Everyone is Canada is WASP?
This dude lives in Vancouver and speaks English like a native. He's Canadian.
Way to piss Canadians off.
CANUCKS!
CANUCKS!
I love watching them take a bite out of the Bruins :-)
OK, what is this really aboot? Canadians and anti-matter don't mix...
In the news today: Canada explodes.

It would be incredibly ironic if the end of the world was brought about by Canadians. It's as outlandish as Ewoks bringing down the Empir ... oh wait. Sh!t
Runs to bunker
And so ended the beer teleportation project.

Canadian research into anti-matter is the same as a declaration of war against the United States and all of Mankind. America should invade now and stop this insanity before the Canucks destroy the world!

I have received an unconfirmed report that the Canadian government is currently creating an Anti-Matter Engine that will enable them to power a spacecraft to faster-than-light speeds. If this is true, then we are all dooomed! The engine will explode, of course, and the top of North America will be destroyed!

Don't tell anybody, but the reason for the engine to be able to get to the beer store and back during commercial breaks of the NHL playoffs.

Sorry, Greg, but I will have to alert the international authorities that the Canadian government is using an Anti-Matter Engine just to get beer inbetween commercial breaks! This is outrageous! I can't believe the Canadians would risk destroying the world just to get alcohol faster! These people have no regard for human life! They must be stopped! Stop them now! DO IT NOW!!!

What would you have us do? Wait until intermission? Then we'd miss Don Cherry.

You're over-reacting. We would never vaporize the entire upper half of North America.
We'd aim the exhaust port southward... :)
Greg
So...they don't matter then?
PSA ---> Canadians are my anti-matter.
I am not over-reacting. If anything, I am under-reacting. Think of it this way; the fate of the world is in the hands of the Canucks. The Canucks...

This is one of my fav songs. It reminds me of high school times, and heavy kissing in dark rooms at parties while parents are away..

Sounds like a good time! That wasn't the kind of song I was used to hearing at parties in dark rooms, though. We had more of the melancholy rock-pop stuff, like Incubus. :P

The following has been copied from Wikipedia to explain why I am so worried about Canadians experimenting with Anti-Matter:
An antimatter weapon is a hypothetical device using antimatter as a power source, a propellant, or an explosive for a weapon. Antimatter weapons do not currently exist due to the cost of production and the limited technology available to produce and contain antimatter in sufficient quantities for it to be a useful weapon. The United States Air Force, however, has been interested in military uses — including destructive applications — of antimatter since the Cold War, when it began funding antimatter-related physics research. The primary theoretical advantage of such a weapon is that antimatter and matter collisions, though significantly limited by neutrino losses, still convert a larger fraction of the weapon's mass into explosive energy than a fusion reaction in a hydrogen bomb, which is on the order of only 0.7%.
On March 24, 2004, Eglin Air Force Base Munitions Directorate official Kenneth Edwards spoke at the NASA Institute for Advanced Concepts. During the speech, Edwards ostensibly emphasized a potential property of positron weaponry, a type of antimatter weaponry: Unlike thermonuclear weaponry, positron weaponry would leave behind "no nuclear residue", such as the nuclear fallout generated by the nuclear fission reactions which power nuclear weapons. According to an article in San Francisco Chronicle, Edwards has granted funding specifically for positron weapons technology development, focusing research on ways to store positrons for long periods of time, a significant technical and scientific difficulty.
So now you see why I am so concerned about Canadians messing around with Anti-Matter, just so they can get their beer quicker! I have had actual Canadians comment on this thread about their "evil plan" and "We'd aim the exhaust port [of an Anti-Matter engine] southward...:)". That last comment was from a Canadian named "Greg", and he seemed happy about destroying everything south of Canada! Now do you understand the threat we face?
