Twitter Users Are Revealing Everything They 'Blame Canada' For & The Answers Are Perfect
"IBlameCanadaFor making me believe in the house hippo..." 🦛
From Canada geese to Dildo, Newfoundland, there are apparently a lot of things the rest of the world blames Canada for!
On Thursday, September 16, #IBlameCanadaFor was trending on Twitter and it seems like the whole world — including Canadians — just couldn't wait to pile on.
Here's a look at just a few examples of things Canada is seemingly responsible for and you'll probably be able to relate to most of them.
House Hippo
#IBlameCanadaFor making me believe in the house hippo when I was younger. https://t.co/qa6SNsVLE8— Shadi Said (@Shadi Said) 1631743473.0
Ah, the famous house hippo. This little creature was featured in a Canadian PSA and stole the hearts of the nation. It even led this person to believe that house hippos were a real thing which they blame Canada for. Fair enough!
Dildo
#IBlameCanadaFor setting itself up for ridicule. https://t.co/dNhWctpl2z— Mara Jade Skywalker (@Mara Jade Skywalker) 1631675529.0
Canada has a number of seriously awkward place names, but Dildo, Newfoundland, has got to take the biscuit. In case you didn't know, Jimmy Kimmel is the unofficial mayor there, too!
Mr. Dressup
#IBlameCanadaFor planting the seeds of my hoarding issue. https://t.co/RQn8U0PhcC— Bricks fer Brains 🇨🇦 (@Bricks fer Brains 🇨🇦) 1631731818.0
If you don't know Mr. Dressup, he's basically the Canadian Mister Rogers and is apparently the genesis of someone's hoarding problem.
Niagara Falls
#IBlameCanadaFor making the U.S. side of Niagara Falls look like crap. https://t.co/Ud0wlA3wod— SueAF (@SueAF) 1631677467.0
While Niagara Falls is pretty impressive whichever side you're on, one is arguably a tiny bit more magnificent. Sorry, New York!
Canada Geese
#IBlameCanadaFor letting out the geese. https://t.co/AZAUFMlBp0— Abby (@Abby) 1631732060.0
If you've ever encountered these animals, you probably know that they can be quite testy. That, coupled with their Canuck name, means Canada gets blamed for them.
'Angela Anaconda'
#IBlameCanadaFor this nightmarish fever dream https://t.co/ZwswOVCvZp— Channel❾Productions (@Channel❾Productions) 1631811147.0
This so-called "nightmarish fever dream" ran for three seasons from 1999 and it was pretty weird. But hey — you can't fault the nostalgia factor.
Moose
#IBlameCanadaFor letting their dogs pee on my lawn. https://t.co/QY6k1tvxfj— Bricks fer Brains 🇨🇦 (@Bricks fer Brains 🇨🇦) 1631732367.0
You know what, if a moose pees on your lawn, you're totally allowed to blame Canada.
