Why didn't you link to the comic on the website... Xkcd deserves at least the credit for it.

[–]lacosaes0 7 points8 points ago

Because redditors are more likely to give upvotes to a pic hosted in imgur.

[–]xerxes431 1 point2 points ago

Yeah tool utilized almost exclusively by reddit! Give all the upvotes!

[–]swordinthesound -1 points0 points ago

As a redditor I can confirm this.

[–]CowSarlacc 37 points38 points ago

Don't put the damned punch line in the title, you wanker.

[–]Mr_Jeeves 5 points6 points ago

You can't blame him, he was born without an imagination.

[–]KennyWells 26 points27 points ago

When the title is the punch line,... Makes it way less funny :( I'm canadian

But... You're a wanker?

1) American liberal moves to Canada, 2) sees that Conservatives are in power, 3) realizes Canada isn't some socialist hippy paradise.

[–]AnomalousMaterials 3 points4 points ago

Yeah, but Canada's Conservative Party is more like the Democratic Party in many ways than the GOP. They favour keeping single-payer healthcare, continuing to allow same-sex marriage, and not touching abortion rights. I think Prime Minister Harper has been fairly moderate, to be honest.

[–]SuminderJi 1 point2 points ago

Our Conservative are more left than your Democrats. Our Liberals will blow your mind.

[–]sirprizes 0 points1 point ago

I'm from Toronto. The Liberals are in the shitter, I'd would've said NDP if I were you.

[–]glowe 5 points6 points ago

It's a lie...our "free" healthcare will save you...kind of. Actually our free healthcare is kinda good.

But, If you are in the USA, and say you have a big accident or a heart attack, and you need a big surgery, etc to save your life, or save your limb. Do the health care professionals have to stop and wait to see if you can afford the surgery/have enough insurance???

In Canada...if you need a life saving op...it is done. If you need limb saving op..it is done. But then your rehabilitation/physical therapy is separate and you have to pay for it.

EDIT: TLDR Drunk :)

How does it work in the US?

[–]_dontreadthis 0 points1 point ago

you have to pay for rehab in canada?!

[–]glowe 0 points1 point ago

Generally yes. You can get limited rehab in a hospital setting, and then you are "referred" to a private clinic and you have to pay for your own physiotherapy.

I know this because I am a Physiotherapist.

[–]musicnote 2 points3 points ago

Damn it!!! I thought I was safe!!!! My Canadian immortality status is one big lie :(

[–]NAKED_SPACEMAN 1 point2 points ago

As a Canadian, sorry to disappoint.

[–]VegetaLordPrince 1 point2 points ago

As a Canadian, this is fucking hilarious.

[–]gkiltz 1 point2 points ago

But WHERE you are in Canada has EVERYTHING to do with whether you die in English or in French!!!

[–]1414141414 2 points3 points ago

Give xkcd credit next time.

[–]Made_for_nofap 0 points1 point ago

I call bullshit!

[–]Kelfox 1 point2 points ago

Little known fact: Americans often die during our winters because they have not evolved to grow a coat of warm white fur beneath their clothes like most Canadians have.

[–]saustin66 0 points1 point ago

I thought it was because they foolishly bathe during the winter and wash away the layer of dead skin insulation.

[–]Kelfox 1 point2 points ago

No, dude. Totally the fur.

[–]Beeble2 1 point2 points ago

Moved mouse for scrollover text: "Drag to Resize"

[–]SuminderJi 0 points1 point ago

Thats because you have RES installed.

[–]Dorksome 0 points1 point ago

I heard similar thing happens to you in France, but worse...

[–]swordinthesound 0 points1 point ago

Win or lose I wish there was a country I could move to right now. Canada if it wasn't so fucking cold, the UK if it didn't rain all the goddamn time, France if they weren't egotistical pricks, or China without the communism.

For fuck's sake we've got a divided states of America right now. And whichever side wins, doesnt look like we're going to get any more united.

[–]geek_loser 0 points1 point ago

"Don't you get it? If you put the punchline in the title, it's not funny anymore!"

[–]Cptnwalrus 0 points1 point ago

IT FUCKING SAYS NOT TO PUT THE PUNCHLINE IN THE TITLE IN BOLD RED BLINKING TEXT WHEN YOU TRY TO SUBMIT WHAT MORE DO YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND?

Seriously though, it baffles me.

[–]DasGinger420 -2 points-1 points ago

this just isn't funny... is it supposed to be a matrix joke?
