    To the princess as she's being escorted off the property: Thank you. The princess is another castle.

    To the landlord: Even if the OP was paying rent to this SC, I'm sure the law would have something to say for evicting him if he's following every term in the housing contract. I'd love to see a contract that says the tennant has to get Harry Potter books at his place of business for the landlord.

    To the Canadian: Don't want to be a Canadian idiot. Don't want to be some beer swillin' hockey nut. And do I look like some frostbitten hosehead? I never learned my alphabet from A to Zed.
    To right the countless wrongs of our days... We shine this light of true redemption, that this place may become as paradise...Oh, what a wonderful world such would be...

          I refuse to believe this Canadian exists. Every real Canadian knows its against the law to display patriotism unless visual contact with a large frozen surface can be made.

          Is your store near an open air rink? If not you should report him to the nearest Consulate.
          What about a book with a picture of the frozen tundra? Or a postcard? Or a magazine?

          Most of these types of laws are rife with loopholes.

            Would have been hilarious if you had happened to have some of those small flags for sale. Could've offered to sell him one and he'd have a Canadian flag with him at all times!

            Just why the hell would he think we'd have a Canadian flag flying anywhere here?

            "Would you fly the American flag outside your business in case I come by? No? Then why should I fly the Canadian flag here? Welcome to America."

            Oy, the stupidity and entitlement! If only it could somehow be rebounded back onto them, so they could see how idiotic they are being...
            Actually, it's not uncommon for businesses in border cities here to fly the U.S. flag along with the Canadian one. This is 100% voluntary, however, and for him to demand that the Canadian flag be flown in front of a business that's not located in Canada just made me

            "Sir, there's a reason you don't feel welcome here ... you're not."

            Wishful thinking, XCashier. They wouldn't recognize their own stupidity. If they had that much brainpower they wouldn't be behaving like idiots in the first place.

            As a Canadian, I'm ashamed that someone like that is from my country. A couple responses:
            - "I'm an American. Is Old Glory flying over the Parliament buildings in Ottawa? Then why should we fly the Canadian flag?"
            - Pull out a "doctored" U.S. flag with 51 stars, and tell him "As soon as the paperwork is signed to make Canada the 51st state, we'll be flying this - how do you like the new Canadian flag?"
            Make sure you've got some ear protection first. The shrieks of outrage would've blown out every window in your building.

            Gravekeeper, you're Canadian - how could you not know that the guy should be reported to the nearest Tim Horton's?
            Never mind being reported to a Timmie's -- he should be banned from them all until he learns better manners. No more Timbits for you, SC!

              That's because it's not really a Canadian. It's an agent provocateur from Blower Slobbovia. Everybody knows Heffalumps can't coexist with ice mice.

                Border cities, yes. But the OP is located in Southwestern New Jersey, which is over 300 miles from the Canadian border, so I'd say the SC is SOL.

                  Heck, I don't see many Canadian flags in Detroit or Port Huron or Sault Ste. Marie, why should there be one in a city that's not even near the Canadian border.

                        More than likely what will actually happen is that some flunky in the PM's office will be more than happy to take this twit's call because it will give them a sizeable chunk of uninterrupted time in which to play solitaire on their computer while still (technically) working.

                          Did you say that "princess" looked to be about 20? Holy crap. I could understand some spoiled-brat 3 year old yelling about being a so-called princess....but a 20 year old? I feel very, very sorry for anybody that dates her.

                              I think it's cute when you get really little kids who play dress ups and pretend they are princesses

                              By kids, I mean, like, a few years old

                              Almost 20 yrs old? And her mum is referring to her as a princess in the context that she was?

                              and



                              Like an earlier person said, I too feel sorry for any person that ends up dating her.
                              Yuck.
                              Self-entitled, self-important, deluded little immature wh*re, me thinks
                              Her mother must also have serious mental issues to be referring to her almost 20-yr old as a princess like that

                                Anyone remember Les Nessman on "WKRP in Cincinatti"? As I recall, he seemed to be somewhat suspicious of Canada, too!

                                Yeah, I know that. They do the same thing down on this border (the one I grew up on), too, but with Mexican flags.
