i'm not one to spam forums with video's, since chances are, 50% of the people i show will have seen it already and another 25% wont find the video interesting.

this however is an exception. a friend just showed me this video, and when i saw the ending, i thought "dam, OWNED!"

http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=-6167916662594488

so remember the moral of the story. remember who you're dealling with, also when you think someones being stupid, realise they're probably outsmarting you

seen it. classic, instant classic.

Besides a bunch of guys who drive BMW's also drink nothing but protien shakes all day, even without the gun I dont think those canadian hicks would've stood a chance.

Might be the strange thought here in the states that everyone in Canada ends their sentences with "Eh", like those hicks did in the video.

Nice.

If you read the comments, one of them is a link to a website where they say it was all staged, but it is still fun nonetheless. I like the twist.

So you guys are saying they're Canadian and "hicks" while I thought the term of "hicks" was traditionally taken by certain Americans?

Either way, owned. Though it could easly be fake. Now if someone got shot right in the leg and you get to see the blood fly, then I would think it's real.

You could just buy or make fake blood and put it in little packets, have them explode when the gun is fired. That would make it a lot better, seeing the guys actually get shot for following the guy lol

Have the BMW guy pick up the bat and give the hick guy one good slam so we could see it wasn't fake. Hadn't seen anyone fake this one well.

You and I both. Though,when I married my now Amercain ExWife,we constantly took the liberty in pointing out one anothers accents to the point of becoming very articulate in our use of the english language and pronounciations.

lol, its cool toby. Mega and I have a love/hate relationship. love to hate eachother And it was my own joke after all.

face it,its ironic. Muslim in Canada,land of Canadian Bacon.Oh the irony.

Xeno,by choice of faith for years,yes.

best to drop this now before it gets the Locky Chew Smack Down.

im on a bad roll of "my bads" today.


And why stage a video like that anyway? For the rise? And you have to admit,it looked ultra corny in the end. Pull a gun on me and im getting the flock out of dodge.

It's funny that americans think all canadians say "eh". I acctually laughed out loud when I read that. I know very few people who say eh.

Anyway, the video was too long. They should have just skipped to the ending.

ya,about once a day



Quote: "I know very few people who say eh."


We honestly do. I denied it for years until I moved to Ohio and was making fun of everyone and their "Ohia!" and "Pataytas!", "Windas!" then when I came home to see my family about a year later,I was shocked at how often I caught "eh" from people. Its just not said or used how americans portray us to. replace the english "oi" and "aye" with "eh" and youve pretty much got it right.

I was so worried my kids may grow up saying stuff like "we grow pataytas here in ohia,eh!"

ive so stopped trying to fight it. im a proud Canadian and "eh" is very much part of my heritage and I carry my accent with pride. At the same time,I helped raise 3 american children and am very partial to Americans as a result.

Now that's just strange. Why not just say "that's right". I personally think that americans exagerate it. When you hear an american impression of us it's some thing along the lines of "So, Hi, eh. I'm Canadian, eh. eh, you know what, eh? eh,eh,eh,eh,eh,eh,eh,EH,EH,EH,EH,EH,EH,EH!!!!"

Any idiot could realize that it'd sound like "Eheheheheh", seeing as how its and "e" followed by an "h," which would end the preceding sound and start a new one.
