It is also too bad that the representation from the Canadian populace further propagates the stereotype. When you use expletives instead of your vocabulary it gives the impression of being ignorant. This is obviously not in regards to the post i replied to, but i thought i would kill two birds with one stone.

The guy that i am replying to, just made a stupid joke.
like this...

"hey Canada! Your mom's teeth are so yellow, she spits butter."

It's childish and juvenile and we are all dumber for having heard jokes like that.

What's up with Sony? They make sweet-assed notebooks and TVs, but their consoles all look like shit! (apart from the PSP, not that it's done it any good)

Where am I going with this?

All in all, it makes a nice story at the dinner table. I'd still buy it, if it was relatively unscratched and worked fine and if the auction featured a "Best Offer" on Ebay.

PS2 isn't all that bad if you get it for $1.40 (oh Engadget, you're going to get some bitter Canadians knocking on your door).

There are multiple pictures of the "product". He points out multiple times that this is a PS1 and a PS2 taped together with duct tape. Read the comments section on the auction.

Dirty pool calling such a well thought out joke of an auction a scam. :(]]>Nov 22nd 2006 3:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/22/ps1-ps2-ps3-ebay-scam-ftw/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/22/ps1-ps2-ps3-ebay-scam-ftw/
Also, someone on Digg I think pointed out that while the PS1's cd tray can open, the PS2's tray is blocked by the duct tape, hehe]]>Nov 22nd 2006 4:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/22/ps1-ps2-ps3-ebay-scam-ftw/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/22/ps1-ps2-ps3-ebay-scam-ftw/Nov 22nd 2006 3:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/22/ps1-ps2-ps3-ebay-scam-ftw/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/22/ps1-ps2-ps3-ebay-scam-ftw/Nov 25th 2006 6:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/22/ps1-ps2-ps3-ebay-scam-ftw/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/22/ps1-ps2-ps3-ebay-scam-ftw/

The gem of the page is his answer towards the bottom when asked if he'll be offering a PS6 in the future:

"No, that's just ridiculous. I'm not made of duct tape."]]>Nov 22nd 2006 4:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/11/22/ps1-ps2-ps3-ebay-scam-ftw/http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/22/ps1-ps2-ps3-ebay-scam-ftw/

Canadian currency is almost on par with your colourless (that's not a typo) US Dollars.

$100 Canadian is worth about $90 US

I'm Canadian, but I have to say besides "Keith's" Local east coast beer. I prefer a number of the European beers eg Kilkenny and Guinness. Although my fellow Canadians should know that Canada's largest brewery is partly owned by Americans - Molson, and Labatt which also owns my own Keith's as well is owned by InBev a Belgian company. Funny how I don't give a shit about how much the Canadian dollar is worth as long as the $20 still gets me the same amount of booze ;) In all seriousness though... BEER!
