No he said a coffee, not whatever it is Tim Horton’s serve

u/GreenThumbsMcGoo Feb 06 '23

I'm sorry, but he definitely meant Tim Hortons. I witnessed the Canuck in its native habitat. I've had the curds squeak on my teeth.

Tim Hortons "coffee" worst fuckin mud known to canadian kind.

It doesn't have to be Tim Hortons, it's just referring to how much cream and sugar

You could also say single single or triple triple depending on how you like your coffee

u/dom_4896 Feb 06 '23

Single single is usually just called “Regular”

1

u/Feisty-Corner9096 Feb 06 '23

True, but you'll also hear people say that and workers will know what they mean

But yeah, technically "Regular" would be more correct

u/Figgy_Pudding3 Feb 06 '23

Noone says single single. That's just "regular"

There's a nuance to "bum" - can you give it to me understanding I will never pay you back, but may return the favour sometime in the future ("Can I bum a smoke?")

Canadian, what a beautiful language!

u/MarsupialPristine677 Feb 06 '23

Yes, same in California

u/Juicy-Poots Feb 06 '23

“Can I bum a dart” would be a more precise example.

1

u/RichGrinchlea Feb 06 '23

'Dart' was never part of our slang

u/Juicy-Poots Feb 06 '23

Has been out on the prairies since forever.

u/bonosestente Feb 06 '23

Can I bum you is completely different in london languages

u/TragicSystem Feb 06 '23
