It’s “canadese.” I’m not saying don’t rename your coffee as a patriotic gesture; I’m just saying do it correctly.

Related: I do not need any more “communities” in my life. I am maxed out on “communities.”

This thread is amazing. The only reason I don’t feel the same bone-deep dread of hippos as I do of bears is that I'm much more likely to go to a place where I might meet a bear.
