Costaki Economopoulos — The biggest name in comedy

I'm overtired and listening to this episode, my head fell into a mind warp when chemda said "I think it does" 4 times in like 3 seconds

Listening to Costakis' Edinburgh stories - I think Canadians could qualify as the North American version of the Scots to Brits joke-wise.

We Canucks have funny accents, drink like fish and have our culture permeated by US culture. You a tried to take us into your country and assimilate us. Especially the comedians and newscasters. And we both have huge Comedy Festivals.

As a former bartender I can relate to all of the bar behavior talk. My parents owned a bar for close to 20 years. I do think it's the bartenders fault for including others on someone else's tab. Having been in that situation, it can be just as uncomfortable for the bartender to tell someone that they need to pay for a drink that they ordered thinking someone else is buying as it is for the person who is actually paying for the drinks to say no they are not buying that persons drink. So when the bartender asks the person buying if they are getting all the drinks, they are putting that choice in someone else's hands. Now it's your choice, and it's basically out of the bar tenders hands. If you say no, you're not buying that person's drink, your the asshole. If the bartender has to tell the person that you said you're not buying their drink, you're still the asshole. It's an easy way for the bartender to stay out of the conflict. I'm not saying it's right, just the way it is. Most people like to avoid conflict so by making someone else the asshole, the bartender can stay out of it and continue to get tips.

Canadians are the greatest North Americans on Earth. I love them a lot.

I'm with Chemda on this one - even if though they are animals they should be able to keep themselves in control in her presence.

BTW's - is this super scientific poll written in a slightly slanted manner?

Responding to catcalls on the street, a friend of mine like to turn it around sometimes.

Her: "Oh, you like my ass?"
Random Rude Guy: "Uuuuuh, yeah ... " / "Yeah baby!"
Her: "Well let me see yours too then!"
RRG: "Uuuuuuu ... "
Her: "Come on, don't be a pussy."
RRG: turns around, either to show ass or break contact
Her: "Ohhhhhhh! Yours is sexy too! I'll be right back with my strap-on!"
RRG: generally shocked and at a complete loss

Obviously this approach requires quite a bit of attitude and confidence and won't work if Mad Eyes Shawn is cat calling.

Lesson from today's episode - Chemda has a nice ass! /super loud whistle.

In fact Guinness IS for pussys...

If you want to go by alcohol (abv) it is the same as Bud Light at 4.2% - Budweiser is 5.0%. And don't be fooled by the color - take a drink of that crap with your eyes closed some time. There is no flavor, no body, no nothing. People just think it's heavy and hard core strictly because it's dark.

Oh fuck - I"m going to change my name from beerchick to beergeek now...

Srsly though - fuck guinness!

[rodimusprime]

They shouldn't have done but it's not shocking. The coaches being involved makes it worse tho.
