Ever get so mad at your laptop that you want to throw it against something, thinking that throwing it might solve all issues? Yeah, I don't think like that, but I kinda do want to throw stuff right now because Premiere Pro is really starting to irritate me.

I don't know what I'm talking about lol; I hardly know anything about Canada other than the people are very nice and it's cold most of the year, I think.
So, how does paying taxes work in Canada?

Meh, not everyone in Canada's nice, and not all spots are cold. Most of the stereotypes are based on the province of Ontario, which has a very humid (ie, more extreme) climate. For example, where I am (British Columbia), it never gets colder than 0 C (32 F), but also never warmer than 25 C (77 F), while in Ontario, temperatures range from -30 C (-22 F) and 35 C (95 F). It's sort of like comparing New York to Washington, really.
As for the taxes, I wouldn't know the difference, as I have my friend do my taxes for me for cheap (a meal and booze); all he asks for are my T4s (forms we get from work/school detailing how much was made/spent and deducted in tax) and receipts that we claim for business expenses. There are incentives to take public transit, thus my claiming bus passes.
Given how little I work, how little taxes I pay as a result, and based on what my friend said upon seeing my meager amount of receipts, I don't expect to receive a substantial refund this year... But I never have anyway, and am not in any sort of debt due to my thriftiness, so it works out. grin

I rather like BC, it's much like home- much moreso than the Eastern United States.

I was almost never able to use that shield effectively, could never time it right.


The insta-shield? It makes that game even easier, not that it needed to be. Sonic 3 is by far the easiest 2D Sonic. I'm sure there was some sort of outcry in its wake, since S&K is a pretty stiff challenge to newer players.

In the U.S. we generally file our taxes on working income alone.

There are deductables, like martial status and how many children you have, but that's pretty much it.

I shall completely ignore your statement that not everyone in Canada is nice.

I'm laughing hard at Fall Out Boy because their new album is called "Save Rock & Roll"

I think they need to look up the definition of pretentious.

You should meet some Quebecois... Ask them for directions in English, and see what happens. wink
Okay, that's a terrible stereotype, but it does happen.

That doesn't count; they're not real people. They are the hipsters of world culture, bein all different for the sake of bein different.

Well, past me, you verified your account, so now you can upload videos that are longer than 15 minutes... I don't think you'll have any problems now.

I most fullheartedly disagree with that. If you're creating an identity simply to be different you're not being true to yourself; that's a lie to the very core of your being. If who you are is part of a crowd -part of the masses- then you should joyfully and gleefully accept that position because that is where your heart lies. You should manufacture a persona to simply be different you should rejoice in your innate qualities that make you different, not create differences out of a desire to have them.

"Everyone loves to talk about 'true self' and 'masks' and whatnot. Well, a mask is not dictated by whether or not it is the person's actual face. It is dictated by whether or not the person is content. We all have masks, and we choose to wear them. There's nothing wrong with that, unless it goes against our contentment. Only when we are not happy with what we see, does the mask become a lie."

- Legion Ivory


"What the hell is a hipster...? That's it? That's just someone being brave. Most people do whatever it takes to fit in, because that's what our society wants. I think it's great that there are people out there doing whatever it takes to be different."
