You pronounce "ceilidh" as "kay-lee?" And I thought the Cajuns, with their Thibodeaxs and Gauthiers, were bad.

Hell, I think ceilidh even trumps forecastle...

Everyone in that area of Canada knows that a PROPER party is called a ceilidh (kay-lee) anyway.
Exactly, that's cause the Quebecois are pussies. We weren't getting along with no shitty Brits. Fuck the Brits.

You get the surrendering douchebags while the craziest bunch of alcoholics and miscreants went south. Hell, during the Civil War, we were the vilest bunch of assholes they had to lump us altogether as the Louisiana Tigers because of our butchering awesomeness. Fuck rifles, we gonna hack you apart with knives.

Anglicized Gaelic, for those who can't figure out which letters are throw-aways

*EDIT* By way of example "claidheamohmor" is pronounced "clay(hawk-spit)more" or just "claymore", for the hawkingly challenged.
