We sat at a hibachi table with people from Canada tonight


The man had gray hair, the son had black hair and the mom had brown hair. Do y'all know them?

reply

Hibachi, eh?


[none]

reply

Yes. And with all the Canadians on this board I figure they must know them.




[a bit]

reply

THEY SOUND VERY FAMILIAR....NO DOUBT SOMEONE HERE KNOWS THEM.

reply

For all I know it was somebody from here. I kind of think it was.

reply

They live in the igloo on the left.

Did their sled dogs take them on a wild ride south again?

reply

They said they were from Ontario about 20 miles north of London in a rural area. They made a point of saying they were not from Toronto because they don't like big cities. Do sled dogs live in Ontario?

reply

They told they don't live in Toronto because everyone in Canada despises people from Toronto.

Sled dogs live everywhere - they're our main form of transportation.

Although I hear that Elon Musk is attempting to bring to market a cyber sled dog team, so that could be a game changer.

reply

Well I feel sure you've correctly identified my tablemates then. The thing that made me think you would know them is that they are people, and that they're from Canada.

Should you ever come within proximity of people from the US, just reach out and I'll help you identify them.

reply

I know how to identify Americans.

None of them know what a toque is.

reply

No, I mean I can identify specifically who they are. Like you told me my Canadian hibachi mates lived in the igloo on the left.

I had to Google what a toque was. I guess I'm a real 'Murican.

reply

But what kind of American?

I hope it's this kind:

reply

The fact that you think I could have a bleached blonde mustache is taking it one step too far.

One toque over the line, you might say.

reply

It's the energy I'm taking about Willis.

Fun fact, no Canadian has just one toque.

reply

I had to google "toque" also, and got this as well:

"In American English, a toque is called a beanie or a watch cap."

"Beanie" sure... "watch cap?" never heard that...

reply

Nope. Me neither.

You wear these things on your head, right?

reply

You can mock us, but remember, it was the Germans who called us stormtroopers in the Great War.

You keep that up, I won't apologize the next time you do something wrong.

reply

"You can mock us, but remember, it was the Germans who called us stormtroopers in the Great War."

Because of this?: https://youtu.be/Ja4v-qiFvBg?si=P_vd5z8jPa_AwANH

I guess that's why you guys wear jockstraps on your heads.

reply

🤣🤣🤣

reply

If all three were drinking Molson Blue eh, then yah

reply

They drank brightly colored, and in a couple cases multicolored specialty beverages, a couple of which had boba balls on top. Are these friends of yours?

reply

"Hibachi Table"

This sounds like a place we have in USA called "Benihana," or as Michael Scott from The Office might say "Asian Hooters."

IIRC I was there once, maybe twice, overpriced and not very good, they had a flat grill, not a hibachi.

reply

This was at Disney World so it's in the USA, and it's one of those places where the chef cooks in front of you. It was the best hibachi I've ever had. We don't have Benihana and never have around where I live so I've never been there to know for sure, but I think it's similar from what I've heard.
