I share both ancestries with you. My observation is when we wake up, we want to crush opponents and rule the world, then we have a couple of beverages and just want to tell jokes and laugh. Friggin' DNA.

Funny Newfie telling a joke

A Lesson in Cultural Differences:

Settling differences 'Maritime style' and 'the Boys'; after a shift have some need and will be drinking.

In Eastern Canada 'its a cultural thing' and 'any shit' is handled rather quickly. It's either put Em' up or "shut 'the 'F' up" and change your stinking attitude 'in Jig Time' (that means - really fast).

In other words: You need to 'back your shit up' or keep your shit to yourself.

In Eastern Canada or (the Maritimes and NFLD); ignorance isn't tolerated. You get smarter 'really quick', or get called outside (and you know what's coming next (that's never 'a good thing').

To be graphic and picture this: It gets too 'seriously nasty and getting the CRAP kicked out of you', if you have 'a stupid/crazy mouth and/or 'a silly assed Dinkhead' attitude.

Sadly Dinkheads need to learn the hard way. Why? Because their ... Dinkheads.

This is advice for you if your a Dinkhead, because I have compassion for your stupidity:

I'd suggest that you never plan a trip to Eastern Canada. Now, in youir 'Dinkhead way', and maybe you do want an ultimate experience and 'the finest of people - with 'a flip side'. You had better have 'an excellent Medical Travel Plan', because as you are, your likely going to need to get to a hospital if 'your lucky'. If your not lucky it can get to far worse for you. You might simply disappear. I'm not shiting you here.

Because I really care. I'll illustrate the above and well, appreciate this as 'A Practical Lesson':

What we have here is 'an Newfoundlander dealing with 'a Frenchman'. The Newfoundlander (coming on Shift) is going to do his best: 'You better smarten up real fast Bye' with 'the Frenchman' (coming off Shift).

Notice the attitude of the Frenchman. That's the 'Big Mouth' with his 'lazy - whiney stupid assed - no manners attitude. That 'piece of useless flesh', sitting in the chair and leaning back against the back wall. He's 'being told' or in other words, taught a lesson in 'how it is'. Slow as that might be and 'the Frenchman's stubborness to learn. He'll either get there or his health is going to be seriously jeopardized:

Well Damn and it's rather predictable as stupid isn't easily modified.Evidently, the Guy (again) on the back wall. The 'seriously backstabbing lazy assed French idiot', hasn't learned a thing. That means he's a step closer to getting 'his shit shaken out of him'.

Now what will become of this?

I'm pretty sure 'as stupidity' is 'just' stupid. Shit's going to happen really soon.

Considering how effective being invited outside to discuss the matter further is so effective in Eastern Canada, I am very surprised no other cultures have adopted this method of dispute resolution.

What is the culturally appropriate response in Western Canada?

Canada has universal health care, so y'all can afford to 'take it outside' and 'break some bones' without much worries.

Depends, sometimes we take it outside, sometimes we have a beer and ignore it. Some times we ignore it until we have too many beer and then it gets taken outside. Ideally nothing happens, but sometimes it does.

As to universal health care and broken bones, we have to pay for casts but not for the doctor. Makes it way cheaper to be stupid.

When it's taken outside up here there is no issue and the aftermath of the scrap.

It's all about dealing with 'the Bullshit'.

It's ** 'mano a mano'.

Here, the doc charges for x-rays, casts and good ole doctor's time. Asks patient to come back in a few weeks for a "follow-up," code word for let us milk you some more. At follow-up, doc looks at bone for 5 minutes, prescribes dope, then charges patient $600. A minor broken bone could cost somewhere between $800-2000, if not more, easily. Suffice it to say, the USA healthcare system values profit more than patients' well-being.

A fucked up system.

No, not everyone is blessed with the awesome health insurance Tex has.

I'm a peaceful person, so like Jesus, I prefer to turn the other cheek rather than take it outside. Haha

Watch the right hand of this young adult Newfoundlander working in the Oil Fields of Alberta for 'a common response' to 'a fella acting like an asshole':
