The way i had these explained to me was “yeah mate, we were poor. It took us 30 years to rebuild our cities and infrastructure after the war and we still had rationing. North America came out unscathed and could buy meat. F*** off.”

Every place in Ontario is named like, Loyalist Township or Orangeville. Because of the perfidious Brit

Or, you know, “Don’t be a megalomaniacal gasbagging sociopath then act surprised when society views you the way it has always looked upon men who lack honour, tact and humility.”
"Tall poppy syndrome is good and everyone does it actually" is one of those self destructive lies Laurentians tell themselves.

You say you'd kill baby Hitler, and yet you root against Sebulba. Interesting.

During the press junket for Jurassic World: Evolution, a journalist took their entire interview time with Jeff Goldblum to have him read as Principal Skinner from THE SIMPSONS "Steamed Hams" episode, and it's amazing 😂👏

Every language has some equivalent to “tall poppy syndrome.” It’s a universal sentiment. We also have universal guidance: wear achievement lightly, share credit, lift others, show gratitude, don’t mistake criticism for envy, don’t think success in one area makes an expert in all
Can I just point out how funny this is, given the paper is owned by Canada’s wealthiest billionaire family, all of whom inherited their wealth.
Should we hate them for that? Of course not, because that would be gross.
But, it reflects our tall-poppy syndrome at its finest.
Personally, I’m glad that the Ontario Teachers Pension Plan is getting a nice payout, as will many others who took a big risk investing in SpaceX.
I wish we had more audacious entrepreneurs making big bets and generating great jobs and wealth here in Ontario. I want to create an environment that makes it even more likely.
The world is not zero sum. The size of the pie is not fixed. If we make more, everyone can get a big piece.

Ask yourself whether any of these loud tech business leaders demonstrate these traits then ask yourself what kind of world you want to advocate for.

Had a proper look at the world cup fixtures for the first time.
Some of those games are for massive perverts.
Iran vs New Zealand at 2am on a Tuesday stands out. That'll separate the leisuremen from the employed.

I love how pilots always tell us the wind speeds in the city we're landing in. Zero theory of mind. Yeah I'm sure this information is very important to *you*...

NEW: World's longest-range aircraft, the Airbus A350-1000ULR has taken to the skies for the first time, completing a three hour 43 minute flight at an altitude of 41,000 feet.
The A350-1000ULR is being developed for Qantas Airways to enable non-stop flights between Sydney and London for the first time ever - a distance of almost 10,000 nautical miles, with flight times of up to 22 hours. This is made possible primarily by the integration into the aircraft structure of an additional rear centre tank (RCT), enhancing further the aircraft performance and increasing the range of the aircraft by 1,000 nautical miles.

I'm a connoisseur of dumb redneck shit and it's been years since something has impressed me. Don't let the flawlessness of its execution rob you of awe of its skill and danger.

In Alberta news, some crazy fucker breaks a world record driving off our local waterfall. Shout out to Dusty Friesen and his boat named Dent.
