You might have to be Canadian to find it funny...
Sorry USA... From Canada
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Re: Sorry USA... From Canada
As a Canadian-American, let me just say that I'm sorry about how funny that was.
I'm sure it was a fluke and that our future Television humour will be much less funny. Look at it this way, with your high-quality, cheaply-made TV shows flooding across the Canadian market, we'll soon have no homegrown humour of any sort on the airwaves.
Oh, and I'm sorry that we have to shove our spelling in your faces every so often - we may still spell things like "colour" and "centre" correctly, but we most certainly don't need to point that out repeatedly.
Oh, and I'm sorry for unleashing Céline Dion onto the world. No living being should be tortured in that way.
Please don't invade my home country. It would prove a most uncomfortable situation for me.
:p:

That's the best laugh I've had all day!
Hey jerlove, it's nice to see another Canadian on here. Hi from the west coast!
And a big hi to you Glendalais. What part of Canada did you come from?

Hey EF.... Thought I might have been the only one...
And with regards to Celine.... This is a billboard I saw this morning in a small town about 50 miles away.
Saturday Aug ? Join us for Celine Dion's and then in smaller letters below it reads Family.....
What could be worse that Celine Dion you ask.... Try listening to the whole family....

Re: Sorry USA... From Canada
KidAtHeart gave me the book, "How to Be Canadian".
That gave me some nice perspective on this.
I laughed. Of course, the fact it's Colin helps.

My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?
