"Which in more lighthearted retellings of this story at parties I never let anyone forget." — I am confused — did this literally happen last night, or did this happen awhile ago?

A legion of internet trolls who were working furiously to be the first to post a "gone to merge with V'Ger" meme picture just had to delete their handiwork.

Tsk, You forgot Jesus's middle-finger, Alberta - flipping the bird to the rest of Canada sine 2006...

i feel like the north east and the west coast wanna kiss but jesus is in the way.

I already have that filter installed. It's automatically installed when you choose your friends carefully.
