Quoth Canarr View PostThere's another video linked from that one, showing grocery prices in Nunavut. Looking at that, I suddenly have no problems at all understanding that GK's customers don't blink at spending 500$ on pants.
Those prices are insane!It's floating wicker propelled by fire!

How did I miss this thread completely?
Oh. Yeah. Fantasy Fest. Duh. It kinda has that effect. Well, hell. Let's get to it then, shall we?
Quoth Gravekeeper View PostLet me see if I have the gist of your question: You want to know if your credit card will be charged if you put together an order on the website, but don’t actually enter any of your credit card information? …….Really? …No, really? You’re really worried your card will be charged even if you didn’t enter any payment information?
I actually understood this when I worked at the hotel, as it had a space for people to put in a tip if they were signing it to their room. Sadly, and predictably, though, this led to more than one non-guest of the hotel signing for their meal and including a tip in the appropriate line, assuming it was their credit card slip, although they had not given us their credit card. Which meant, of course, that neither the hotel nor the tipped employee would be seeing their money.
Yeah, it sucked.
Quoth Gravekeeper View PostTormented day in and day out by never knowing the answer to the greatest mystery I have ever faced on this planet.
Quoth Gravekeeper View PostMe: “And your first name please, ma’am?”

Away with you, Aphrodite! I will not be tempted by your feminine wiles!
Of course, that's assuming she's not a trucker in flannel named Alice with a deeper voice than me. The belching can't be her ONLY worthwhile quality!
I do have standards, after all.

Or maybe you're just avoiding this topic since they are, ya know, Canadian.

I'm just naturally a smartass like that, I guess.

Quoth Jester View PostClearly you've never had the misfortune of listening to the appropriately named Tragically Hip.

International visitors who still feel slighted may apply directly to the government for a free Bryan Adams CD.

I wonder if they'd allow you to substitute an Alanis Morissette CD....?
By the way, there are plenty of really good and even great Canadian musicians. In addition to some already mentioned, there's April Wine, Avril Lavigne, Chantal Kreviazuk, Jeff Healey, Gordon Lightfoot, The Guess Who, Shania Twain, my favorite Canadian group, Rush, and probably several others I can't think of.
But yeah, Celine Dion, Bieber (who I didn't realize was Canadian; he seems so much more a product of American corporate music), and my college music nemesis, the Tragically Hip. All bleah. To be fair, I encountered worse bands in my college radio days, but none with the name recognition of the Tragically Hip. I think I won a free album of theirs once...I was actually angry at the people who gave it to me.
