Yes, how did Plaid deal with the Canadians and their rocket packs? Did Plaid remember to bring silver?

not much hostility. i think the elders get more of that than we sisters...
i remember just twice being sworn at, a handful of people who tried to argue about things, but mostly people were polite enough in their rejection.

we always appreciated when people were honest and just said straightforwardly they weren't interested, instead of leading us on with "not today, it's really busy... maybe later" type junk.
on the other hand, it always boggled my mind that they could say "no thanks" without even letting us say one word. how do they know what they're "not interested" in? but then of course, they've probably seen us before.

i came to the conclusion that it had a lot to do with timing. some people are ready, some people aren't yet. that's my theory, anyway.


Canadians aren't that strange, are they Ba? there are some strange words. and different kinds of food. i love nanaimo bars. and perogies. and i even sort of like poutine, if it has less gravy and more cheese. but not too much cheese, and it has to be very melty.


joe pancake?

It was all a trick to keep Plaid from suspecting the horrible, horrible truth.
