This is more accurate than it looks like at first glance. As an Australian, we like to think that we are all larrikin individuals. Actually we are mostly law-abiding freaks even under the most ridiculous constraints.
Yep, as an Irish jaywalker, I was shocked to find not only is jaywalking not allowed, but you actually get fined. For crossing the road with no traffic.
Or even just being denied entry to a pub for racism or sexism. Its an offrnce not to leave immediately.
On the bright side, peopke clean their shit upnin parks and beaches for the most part.
Too true…
Dr. L. Kravitz (1989) had a thesis that the clause be inverted
So to summarise:
-
The Union Jack makes you love rules
-
Stars make you say that you hate rules
-
Full-height vertical red bars make you say that you love rules
-
Living in North America makes you hate rules
Replace “makes” with “is correlated with” because we don’t have sufficient evidence to infer causality.
This sounds dangerously like a rule 🤔 🇨🇦

Americans love rules for everyone else, but not for themselves.

How did you get the idea that Canada doesn’t like rules?
Ever been to Alberta? It’s Texas lite and half the time doesn’t make sense.
We also hate rules (especially if you also say the name Trudeau)
Hahahahaha! Yeah ok I see it now.
It’s never a war crime the first time
That’s our appreciation for clear rules
If anything, it makes us legal scholars - if it’s not a written rule, it’s a loophole in the making
Visit the North. Very clear attitude towards rules.
Canadian here. Can confirm. Fuck the law.
I spent some time up there and I was surprised to find very similar sentiments to what I see here in Texas. Yee haw, fuck the law.
I’m from Québec, I’m very much from the North. I know in Québec we try to make our own rules just to piss off the rest of Canada.
But, I’m just curious as to what attitude you are referring to, towards Canadians. Because they’ve tried to impose their rules on us for quite a long time.
Don’t refer to other Canadians as if you aren’t also Canadian. Seperation didn’t happen, get over it.
You’re just mad because we’re the original and the best kind of Canadiens. 😘
No, actually. You can go on thinking that tho, no one can stop you.
Why are we in your commonwealth meme? And how can this not be cross-posted to [email protected] ?
Feel free to crosspost! (I stole this meme anyway)
Are you wondering why it isn’t cross-posted already, or are you trying to prevent it?
Uh… whichever one is against the rules, that’s the one I want!
This is an absolutely brilliant summary.
