Canadian Newscast Gives Drunken Potato Chip Theft Serious Investigative Journalism Treatment
Shut it down. The Canadian Emmy news awards are a wrap. (That’s a thing, right?) CTV must have had a few slow days this June since they committed a 3-minute segment to two drunken college girls stealing a bag of potato chips from a garage. Everyone involved is amazing. The anchor sells it like we’re about to learn about an evening gone wrong. He then throws it to his man on location in Saanich, which is, of course, adorably Canadian for “sandwich.” From there, they interview someone from the “neighbourhood” who “likes chips.” After that, the real star of the report shows up – Sgt. Dean Jantzen.

Sgt. Jantzen apparently gave a press conference on this potato chip-related crime. Also, there’s a grocery store named Zellers. Everything in this video must be fake. How is this not an Onion News Network video? They recreated the trail of chips!! “Illicit chip tastings!” “First-time chip offenders!” Sgt. Dean Jantzen is a damn American Canadian hero. And they finish with a public service announcement for landlines!
I want to hug this video forever. That’s it. I have to move to Saanich, get a house phone, get drunk and shop at Zellers. This is clearly the only place and way to live.

Brad Renfros grief stricken mother makes a punishing hot sauce?
July 10th, 2012 at 2:47 PM
Big fan of old lady Renfro’s salsa verde, won’t burn the butthole as bad as that but still provides a nice kick
July 10th, 2012 at 2:47 PM
*Salsa not sauce.

CRM, that last picture is a prime candidate for an incredible caption, and you blew it. You’re better than that, and you know it.

It is closing in October.

Called The Gemini Awards.
Also, there’s a grocery store named Zellers.
Zellers recently sold out to Target, soon it will be no more.
Would love to live in Saanich.

And they finish with a public service announcement for landlines!
The PSA for landlines was a twist I did not see coming.
On a related note, my wife finally relented and disconnected our landline yesterday. I convinced her finally because the political robocalls are just going to get worse.

Just Google Mapped it. Hell, yes. That looks like a fantastic place to live. Near water, trees, hills.

You just put your entire family in danger.

So, I’ve been told, but I don’t live in Canada so I think we are in the clear.

If you ever get a chance to visit Vancouver Island, do it. It’s high on my list of possible retirement communities.

I can’t tell if the police officer is just trolling or if CTV is taking themselves way too seriously here. And Zellers sucks.
Hilarious.
July 10th, 2012 at 3:22 PM

So that’s where that one came from.

Keep them under the pretense of marriage and leave once their bank account cleaned out. I like it.
July 10th, 2012 at 3:31 PM
My first two ended up married to someone else, and I’m sure they’re both much, much happier than they’d have been with me.
July 10th, 2012 at 3:31 PM

The 6 just peeked at the comments and said You’re Walking Underwear?

Before I even saw who wrote this, I knew who wrote this.
July 10th, 2012 at 3:32 PM
That’s a tough thing to have to explain to a 6-year-old.
July 10th, 2012 at 3:32 PM
Yep thats where that came from…was hurt no one got it while i had it
Scatman ftw

i appreciate soused’s flair. it takes a lot to get me to think something offensive, and yet here we are.
July 10th, 2012 at 3:35 PM
As do I. My one fear is that one day you and Soused will combine on a comment, and it will be like crossing the streams in Ghostbusters.
July 10th, 2012 at 3:38 PM
soused and i are looking for heroin, coke and meth addicts to complete the altered state of drugachussets version of capt planet and the planeteers. tryouts are sunday at the community college polo grounds.
July 10th, 2012 at 3:42 PM
Giving this much more thought than it deserves … what makes this even funnier was that TBL post a month or so ago about the college hoops player who stole a taco.

Bring your flasks and dead on the inside battered women. Gentlemen this is for the ages.
