My favorite part of NL's Bellingham rivalry is he oscillates between going "I get it just because I'm a tourist doesn't mean they're gonna love me for spending money in their city" to being like "WITHOUT MY DOLLARS THIS PIGSTY WOULD GO INTO COMMERCIAL RUIN, OH FINE GUESS I'LL GO AWAY I DIDN'T WANNA PROP UP YOUR ECONOMY ANYWAY EFF ME I GUESS"

and then on the flipside you have people going 30 northbound on i5 before the exit onto sunset/highway 542 when there's still another 1/8th a mile til the stoplight personally i don't tend to notice much of a distinction between canadian and washington drivers though, both tend to be equally as likely to be utterly clueless or incompetent in my experience don't even get me started on how poorly they programmed a solid 3rd of the stoplights here; lakeway is a mess, sunset is atrocious, and lucky for me those are the streets i have to drive on most frequently lol

As an american, flag code is the dumbest thing I've ever heard of in my life. I remember being in middle school and one of the kids who put the flag up on the pole every morning wasnt there, so the other kid asked me to help him. I let my end of the flag fall onto the ground while hooking it up to the pole, and the kid started going off on me about how you never let the flag touch the ground so on and so forth. Im not confrontational so im just like "oh sorry I didn't know." But in my head I'm like "it's just a flag who cares?"
