Papa Was A Video Toaster posted:Is a donut shop named after a hockeyman really culture? Pretty sure it was always capitalism. Decades of propaganda has made it culture, which is why people go there despite it being total poo poo for 15 years now.

Tim's Donuts seems passable, if maybe only because the alternatives basically don't exist. Grocery store donuts are even more sad and lacking in variety, I think my city might have one or two specialty donut places, but they're too far from me / have like 5$ delivery fees. Not that it's an option, but I refuse to believe a place named "Kripsy Kreme" can be any better either.

kaom posted:Yeah the youth are definitely into Meta, sure Get a copy of Editing Canadian English, 3rd Edition. It was updated in 2015 (there might even be a 4th edition by now), and covers the differences between American, British, and Canadian English in lieu of us having a functioning dictionary (it’s where I originally found out about the issue). It’s the go-to-book for the Canadian editor’s group next to your relevant style guide. The thing that pissed me off about that article was when the feds apparently wouldn’t fund a new edition of the dictionary because the project wasn’t bilingual. No loving poo poo it’s not bilingual, we’re trying to save Canadian English here.

Colour is fine Traveller is fine Centre is fine It’s the when to -ise and when to -ize And also stuff like the verb “to centre” - centring vs centering We also have straight-up CA words like toque and skookum, but at least those are easy to look up because there is no US version
