A Conversation for London, Ontario, Canada
City or Town

Fair enough London thinking it is a City not Town
Belgium is labouring under the misconception that it is a Country rather than the back yard of Europe.
(The place where you keep all the trash)
London, Ontario?

That's quite a leap. That's what I love about about h2g2: There's always someone out there that feels the need to say something, anything (!) even if it's completely off topic. And if one can toss in a cheap, unsophisticated insult, so much the better. Wouldn't Mr. Adams be proud?

Youch!
What about sophisticated insults -- are those allowed?
Huh Huh Huh?
Could you elaborate on why you think you are a town, when you are most definitely a city?

Oh mighty and pious Gibbous!! If you had actually read the article you would see the relevance of the first comment.
An insult can only be defined as an insult if it portrays an untruth or offends the person(s) it relates too.
Are you a Belgian?
Do you know any Belgians?
Have you ever met any Belgians?
Or drunk their beer?
Or eaten their chocolate?
Or dipped chips in their mayonaisse?
London, Ontario?

Mighty? I'm a wimp. Pious? Hardly.
Now, I read the article but I must be too dim to see where likening Belgium to a trash receptacle has any relevance to the subject of the forum. But, of course, yes I'm sure no Belgian would take offense to that anyway, right? It's just in good humor, nothing personal and all that, ha, ha.
As for your questions: No. I used to. Yes (see previous answer). Yes. Yes. Yes, but only when trying to blend in.
So does anyone out there have anything more to say about London, Ontario?
London, Ontario?

Yes!
I have.
London, Ontario is a town which believes it is a city unlike Belgium which beleives it is a whole country..............
etc etc etc ad infinitum or until your head explodes into a brown puddle of putrid jelly type stuff around your (probably) shabby Jesus sandals and grey sock
