They're Not Even Hiding Their Racism... - Reacting To Conservatives FURIOUS At "Black Doctor Who" by Mr TARDIS

[The Lensman]

Though if Doctor Who ever decides to use a character that's specifically supposed to be Canadian, the words "eh" and "aboot" should NEVER come out of their mouths. Those are stereotypes based on ONE stupid comedy sketch that wasn't even funny.

"Eh?" was popularized by Bob and Doug. And when Canadians say "about", it doesn't sound like "aboot" and it's fucking annoying.

It sounds like "aboat" when they say it. LOL. It's always the tell that someone's Canadian to me.

I tried to watch Excalibur. It's unwatchable. At least for me.

Whaaaa? It's still the best rendition of the Arthurian cycle, all in one film. Early roles for Patrick Stewart, Gabriel Byrne, Helen Mirren, Liam Neeson, Cirian Hinds and Clive Swift. It's a goddamn classic I tells ya! A classic!

Hard agree and, impressively, it tells the full legend in one film. If they were doing it now, it’d be a trilogy, each film would be 3 hours long and part 1 would end with him pulling the stone from the sword.

"Eh?" was known as a Canadian thing well before Bob and Doug. There was a book called Canajan, Eh? back in 1973 that was a bestselling (in Canada, at least) and allegedly funny take on Canadian English. It's been so long since I last saw a copy that I honestly don't remember if it actually was funny. The same writer also wrote Murrican, Huh?

It sounds like "aboat" in some places. My mom, from a small town in Nova Scotia, says it like that. A lot of Canadians say it with almost the same ow sound as in, well, sound.

I was going to say total agreement and no nitpicks here, but it's Ciaran, not Cirian.

If you can do accents, Ciarán even.

I can do them easily enough on the phone, but not so much on this laptop.
