Got this in my email today.

Giving away prizes BUT each person who registers will receive a free silk plant and $10.00 gc to site. If you register before 5/14 you will receive an additional gift. Contest ends 7/30 so you have to wait for this one! When you go to site, click on the top where it says "responding to email offer", then register.

I've signed up for more bullsh1t than one knows what to deal with. Most of the time the del button is pressed when reading, but I get like 80-130 emails a day. I couldn't really remember where I signed up.

Yeah, but unless its a bag of dog sh** or something, how can you deny free stuff? Someone i know will always find a use for it. I dont know if my mom really likes silk plants, but she is going to be getting a gift from me for no special occasion, just because. And I get bonus points for that.

Hey thanks, i just signed up. I was thinking i needed some greenery to spruce up the place (albeit fake). Anyways, I also read this in the contest rules:

Canadian
contestants selected as winners will be required to answer a mathematical skill testing question as a prerequisite to being declared a winner.

Does anyone really know why they do this? I remember seeing this in another contests rules.

because it is a nationally held opinion that canadians are less than intelligent. sorry rc, but didn't you see southpark? We just have a tendency to blame canada.

But the fact of the matter is that canadians are not stupid, it is just a dumb little stereo type that everyone gets a kick out of, even I do eh?, but still, Canadians are nto stupid, why do you think are murder rate per day is less then half of yours, cause of gun laws. And wiser decisions, heeh sorry for getting off topic

It looks like it is getting a little hot in here.

Thanks for the link. I need some plants in the house. All the ones I buy end up dying.

the reason your per kapita murder rate is so low is because you are not as condensed. Therefore there aren't any "real" cities (LA, New York, Chicago, Washington DC sized, that is). Your biggest cities are about the size of San Diego, and your murder rates in those cities do not compare favorably against those in San Diego. So, it isn't because you are smarter, or wiser in litigation, but rather because you are more spread out. Hate to burst your bubble...oh wait...heh heh. I love it. Oh well. No offense, eh?

dimigon: Canada is not safer because citizens can't own guns. If not owning a gun meant less crime then DC, aka gun control heaven which I live 15 minutes away from, would be the safest place in America. Its not by far. Its easily one of the most unsafe places in America by far.

As for Canucks being stupid I've never heard of this before.

Finally Canada's public school system is better than America's public school system.

The answer regarding the math skill thingie on the site.

Canadians have some special rule about contests. Their laws require that all contests they are eligible for have some sort of skill issue involved. I don't know why that is, but every contest must have some type of skill/knowledge question that must be answered correctly to win.

The question is usually really stupid and easy or they give you the answer by having you read a paragraph and answer a question.

And you guys need to be nice to each other.. you know better than to hack off a pregnant woman. (Hormones are 40x the level of PMS... fact!)
