I have a Canadian flag on my profile (at least at time of writing). What is that and can I get it removed? As much as I love maple donuts I am a Texan. Any way of getting the Lone Star banner on there?

have you double checked what you listed in your profile?

I think Lego mentioned that the flag is based upon what ISP you use, and where it's based and/or prominently used. I use aol (yeah I know it's sad), so I put the ole stars and stripes up.

Thats strange. yes I check my profile. Oh well I guess I'm multicultural Canadian-Texas.

Don't forget your tooks! Yall...

"Y'all comin' to the BBQ, eh?"
"What BBQ you talkin' aboot, eh?"

Wow, this could provide HOURS of fun, y'all.... eh.

Indeed, it is based on your ISP and is about 99.9% accurate. You are one of the lucky ones that gets to pretend to be a canexan or texadian. What ISP do you use? In the future it should be updated with more accurate info (and then give you the stars and stripes), and I can submit your info to the project that maps ISPs to countries to help out.

You're a gun-toting closet socialist.

Which makes you communist, I think.

Ayah that sounds accurate. We'll just say some of my retirement is denominated in alternate currencies.

Or from Alberta hey?

He's a Canaxan from Texanada, eh.

Lets get some Molson hey hoser

Odd. I changed my time zone and it updated correctly.

Are you using the correct time zone?

I'll see if that works eh?

Now I don't see a flag on your name at all. I also lost mine right away.

It comes and goes, much like my work ethic, IQ, orneryness, etc. etc.

Y'all do know that tahm zones go all the way up to Texanada too, right hoser? Eh?

Oh ya eh. I even tried the Caribbean time zones eh but no dreadlocks so it was a bust hoser.

Typical self-loathing puck-chugger. jfrazell, you live in Canada. You need to accept that, and learn to be ok with it.

Jazz-Hands has it right.

James, y'all know yur from canadia, I reckon.

I also reckon that if you dont stop the pretending, you might get a sight sore from being buried under a creosote piling in the deep caliche of the south padre islands.

Or find yurself face down in a cow pasture somewheres near Goliad or Refugio.

We dont take too kindly to pretenders in these here parts, so it may be best if you ski-daddle afore you get strung up, all stretch like.

A'ight?

I don't like them, they reveal a bit too much about my brousing habits.

The Eyes of Texas are...upon...you...eh?
