The Canadian
My buddies Jim and Max and I went out on this epic bike trip, 1500 miles around VT and Maine and stuff. We’re at a bar in Burlington, and my buddy Jim becomes “The Canadian.”
He came up with it a month prior. He pretends he’s from Montreal and only speaks french, but he has enough broken english to “get by.” So he’ll chain together nonsense and tiny phrases in a french-canadian accent. Kids love it.
Anyways, we’re at a bar, and Jim is bumbling out “I am.. from… Canada, Montreal, Quebec” and a french canadian turns around at the table next to us! “You are from Montreal? Bonjour! (Speaks several french sentences).” It was incredibly funny watching him fess up.
The actual canadian was legitimately confused for a beat because his english wasn’t so good. We actually ended up drinking with that Canadian dude all night. Story credit: Reddit / IAMAfortunecookieAMA
