The only time I ever drove to Canada, we got stopped at the border because I didn't know what exactly we were going for and how to communicate that properly.
So I kept turning to my wife at every one of his questions, and it looked like she was human trafficking me.
He's like, so what are you doing? Birthday.
Whose birthday? Her friend's.
What's the friend's name? You didn't see the gun that was pointed at you? Like a wire around my neck from the person in the backseat.
They don't normally check your car unless you give them a reason to.

Oh, that sucks.

my point like i he was actually right like yes i imagine that that is a very easy way to like not pay any taxes on anything but like how would you ever prove i didn't have this when i was coming down
damn Unless they documented what you brought back over.
You would never.
Ever.
Can you imagine a border crossing card? Three sacred foundries.
Two flage whatever.
And then they just fucking grill you on your deck twice.
We had it marked down that you had a regular Flage in your deck, and you came back with a foil one.
He's just like,
Judge, detain this man.
