The Secret to Canada's Nature?
John Rogers over at Kung Fu Monkey has some thoughts:
This was compounded by an eerie emotional quiescence I experienced during my first weeks in Canada. I caught myself thinking: "Is this apathy ... or is this just what being relaxed actually feels like?" I just wasn't so angry. But anger, of course is part of what fuels the typing.
Lovely Wife developed an excellent theory. The coffee at Tim Horton's, Canada's ubiquitous coffee chain, is heavily drugged. Canada would be a non-stop raging 28 Days Later apocalypse if not for the fact we're kept sedated. She's working on the screenplay now.
I always knew there was something funky about Tim's coffee. If it really works, we need to work on its rapid expansion to our southern neighbours. We'll just hope it doesn't have the same side effects as the pax.
