I assumed all of Canada was basically like living in an episode of Trailer Park Boys or Letterkenny
Canadians are like Minnesotan’s with better healthcare and the metric system.
They can. They just choose not to.
I’ve never liked Bat’leths. They’re bad. They make zero sense as a weapon.
Wielded in both hands, it have all the reach of a large knife, but none of the maneuverability.
You can kind of use a Bat’leth one-handed, but it’s clumsy and not at all balanced. It makes for wild swings that are more likely to hurt you or your friends than the enemy.
You can sort of block with them, if the opponent is going to make an overhead chop. That looks cool on screen, but if the warrior with a Bat’leth was facing a warrior with a simple sword and shield, the warrior with the Bat’leth would fucking die.
It’s just a bad weapon, and looks like it was made to impress mall ninjas.
Have you ever held a Bat’leth? Because it makes you feel powerful. Klingons are interested in feeling powerful and striking fear in their enemies, and for that the Bat’leth is pretty freaking great.
I mean, we’re human, so I get the whole Indiana Jones “Ima just shoot the guy” thing. But we’re talking about Klingons. Even if the weapon is objectively bad, there is honor in killing an enemy the hard way.
“We choose to use the Bat’leth in this war and others not because they are easy but because they are hard!” JFKlingon.
But today is a good day to die.
As a Canadian, with the preface that some of my best friends are Americans and I mean this with all due love and respect, we see you as the Ferengi not the Klingons.
Very fair. I’m Canadian and was torn between the two. I think you can make a case for either as America feels like hyper capitalism. But, the whole “guns EVERYWHERE” thing pushed me to Klingon.
Not too far off from what I picture, except usually more flannel.
If you squint it kinda looks like they’re wearing all denim
Perhaps it may come as a surprising opinion but I have met and known a lot of great Americans that are kind and polite to a fault while knowing some Canadians that are petty warmongering ignoramus.
Nevertheless, I can understand that I probably haven’t met enough Americans from every States to have an overview of the ignoramuses that exist accross the border (beyond what is depicted, often exaggerated, in the media and memes — excepting the whole neverending Trump & Friends saga). Not that I absolutely want to meet them either, I have enough to deal with easily Facebook duped and misinformed relatives and sometimes colleagues.
I somehow felt like sharing my general experience after seeing that funny comparison of perceptions.

What is the lower picture from?
Ottawa in the summer
The Naked Now, the second episode of The Next Generation.
Thank you!
The rest of the world: Wait, Canada and America aren’t the same?
Me at work, in Spain, reading news about gun violence: Americans sure do like their guns!
My Cuban coworker: Do you mean North America, Central America, South America, or Caribbean America?
Me: … sorry. The USA.
Want a challenge? Try to get DALL-E to paint a bat’leth.
