Sounds ominous, but it can't be any worse than how things are going over here anyway.

I, for one, welcome my new northern overlords, and will happily volunteer myself to tap your maple trees and sharpen your ice skates.

Repeat after me. Steamy all dressed and poutine. Pepsi. Astie Tabernak.

Hosti de pourri de câlisse de tabarnac

I know all of those except astie tabernak, what's that?

[–] gramie@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 days ago

Presumably the first is a corruption of "hostie" (i.e. "Host", the Catholic communion wafer)

Tabernak is like how Anglos say fuck.

Fuck is just a sentence enhancer.

Ah, ok never heard that but only know Canadian culture from Canadian streamers.

Although "what the tabernak" doesn't have the same ring as wtf... Or "abso-tabernak-lutely"... Or "go tabernak yourself"

Yeah I know it doesn't work that way I'm just having fun playing with words

Quebec swears are odd. Like why are their swears based on religious things.

Americans do same thing "God damn it"

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Ah tabernak!

Tabernak!

More like that.

[–] vrek@programming.dev 1 points 3 days ago

Sure but that's not as much fun as abso-tabernak-lutely

[–] Lemmyoutofhere@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 days ago

Save that for when somebody cuts you off in MTL.
