This show hurts my brain

Can’t blame you, it’s like a shakespearian comedy about nothing, sped up, with the Middle English replaced by equally obfuscatory Albertan slang.

Excuse you that ain’t Albertan that’s the wrong coast. It’s Ontario slang.

DO YOU WANNA GET STRIKED

Having grown up in rural Ontario, Letterkennny is a documentary.

Squirrelly Dan is fucking right! Garlic and herb butter but I prefer a reverse sear where you do most of the cooking in the oven and then sear it up real nice in a pan with your herbs and butter n shit. Also white shirt with a cigarette is correct in that yeah you salt and pepper that shit what kinda fucking heathen wouldn’t

Things that are great about this scene from Letterkenny:

• The actress is named Kaniehtiio Horn, and she’s Mohawk, grew up on the Kahnawake reservation, which is in Quebec
• “We don’t practice violence” “We do”

further context for this scene:

• the local youth soccer team, at the request of the nearby rez, declared they were going to change their name from ’ the chiefs’ to something not racist
• the rural white community was totally supportive of this
• ‘hard right jay,’ played by Jewish actor jay baruchel, heard about the change online. he is not a local – he is a neo-nazi from the city
• he travels to this rural town and approaches the white locals, trying to recruit them into his ‘hard right’ ideology and get them angry about the name change. he assumes this will be easy
• the white locals are hugely insulted by this, because a) they support the name change and b) they aren’t fucking nazis
• jay calls in a bunch of nazi out-of-towners to stage this ‘protest.’ none of the hard-right people in his group are locals
• after watching jay spend the whole episode acting like he’s so Respectable and Reasonable and Intellectual while spouting nazi rhetoric, watching Tanis beat his ass is extremely cathartic

I need y’all to know that Jay Baruchel is the voice of Hiccup in How to Train Your Dragon

also adding that the white locals are the “army” beating the shit out of the nazis in slow motion

Things that are great about this scene from Letterkenny:

• The actress is named Kaniehtiio Horn, and she’s Mohawk, grew up on the Kahnawake reservation, which is in Quebec
• “We don’t practice violence” “We do”

ACTUAL NATIVE ACTORS PLAYING ACTUAL NATIVE CHARACTERS?

WHO KNEW YOU COULD DO THAT

I love Letterkenny
