American, Irish, Candian, etc. describe different types of bacon. They mainly come from two different parts of the body of the pig. The stomach and the back. Depending what kind changes what it looks and tastes like and where you get it from.
I never heard of the Mexican Wave. I always heard it was the Wave and rather dumb.
'The Wave' or 'The Mexican Wave'?

OK so I found this site http://www.foodsubs.com/MeatcureBacon.html which straightened me out.neoolong wrote:American, Irish, Candian, etc. describe different types of bacon.

So in Canada, "bacon" is the typical "American bacon", and what's called "Canadian Bacon" is never called that, its always called Ham (at least I've never heard it called Canadian bacon).... American TV had me confused, I used to think American bacon was something else because of their constant referral to "Canadian Bacon".
As for the wave, I've never heard it called the "Mexican wave", maybe its an overseas thing?
Why would Mexicans label it a Mexican Wave. If you insist that it is Mexican in origin, and you insist on calling it by its full name, then it would still probably be called a wave.

They say, "the tree of liberty must be watered with the blood of tyrants and patriots." I suppose it never occurred to them that they are the tyrants, not the patriots. Those weapons are not being used to fight some kind of tyranny; they are bringing them to an event where people are getting together to talk. -Mike Wong
But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red
