Just Heard on CBC's Metro Morning podcast...

Q: Why don't more Canadians engage in group sex?
A: Because it takes too long to write all those thank-you cards.

pishposh [the excuse, not your reporting of its use, which I'm sure is accurate]. it's the work of a moment to be polite and write those thank-youx. even with a really extensive orgy, you can do it during morning coffee break.

kids these days - they just don't think to keep a supply of decent stationery and stamps on hand. and look at all the benefits (being invited to group sex parties) that they miss!

which brings to mind a similar conundrum:

Q: How can you tell you're getting an obscene phone call from a Canadian?

A: Thirty seconds of heavy breathing, and then, "is this a convenient time to call?"

Or you could have anonymous group sex and then not know how to address the thank-you notes.

and that inability to address the thank-youx can be very traumatic for Canajuns, I assure you.

This Canadian thanks you all. Very funny joke & comments!

But, for you, it would be the time spent *responding* to all those thank you cards.

OMFG!

After each of our academy classes, we have to write Thank You notes as part of the curriculum to each of the presenters. We're getting wrist cramps.

That gave me the HUGEST laugh!

This one has made the rounds but never gets old:

We are the Canadian Borg.
Resistance would be impolite.
Please wait to be assimilated.
