In the question of the day, it asked about favorite and less favorite accents, and it got me thinking about how comedians use "fun loving stereotype" humor in their bits. As a Canadian, we are always made fun of for our "accents" and use of "Eh" a lot. That made me think of a Canadian comedic duo "Bob and Doug, the Mckenzie brothers" who really play up the stereotype. I think they are funny.
Here is one of my favorites from them, it's their version of the Twelve Days of Christmas.

What are some of yours?

Well that's taking "We used to have to walk to school uphill both ways..." to a whole new level. LOL!

I'm not Canadian, but I remember the McKenzie Brothers. We used to be able to pull in Canadian stations when I was a kid (with rabbit ears), so that's possibly where I saw them. They are very funny.
