Maybe I AM NOT CANADIAN!
Molson's is gonna get so razzed over this by their competition, especially considering how they wrapped themselves in the flag with their Joe Canada - I AM CANADIAN rant.
MONTREAL - Molson Inc., Canada's last major domestically owned brewer, confirmed yesterday it is in "advanced discussions" to merge with Adolph Coors Co., the Colorado-based brewer of Coors Light.
But merging would help neither company solve their core problem of propping up sales of their sagging flagship brands. "You put two struggling, medium-sized brwers together, you could just get a bigger struggling brewer," said Veritas Investment Research analyst Michael Palmer.
Translation: Ugly parents usually make ugly babies.
I drank Molson's in high school and in early university, usually because that's what the older (legal) kids were selling off to us underaged losers. I didn't like it, but I wasn't drinking for taste in those days, and Molson sure didn't provide any. For the longest time Canadian beer brands have suffered from the conceit that on the whole Canadian beers were better because they were Canadian, no effort to actually make something that tastes better.
That's why they're losing market share.
Today I stick to the microbrews, which I gotta say are quite a bit better out west...
Change is bad.
I hate the new Chicken McNuggets. Bland bland bland.
What the hell is this obsession with white meat? What was wrong with the old nuggets? I mean without the processed
Yet another food that McDonald's has botched for me. First the Big Macs lost their taste, then the McChickens got smaller, they messed up the fries (what the hell was wrong with animal fats and salt in the fries: What the HELL are vegans eating at McDonald's for anyway?)
Now the McNuggets are screwed, too. And they're trying to say that these nuggets are somehow better.
My two-year old daughter (whose favourite food is chicken by the way) made a face at the taste: "'tucky chicken, dada?" "Yes honey, we'll go to KFC next time..."

Absolutely hilarious. They're now selling T-shirts of head-in-sand Information Minister, Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf...
How long will his career last as 2003's I didn't do it boy?
