This was wonderful. I adore your Ray voice. And it's already been said, but this:
(“Magnets.” “New Brunswick.” “Fraser, that’s stupid. What kind of a link’ve you got from magnets to New Brunswick, huh? What, we don’t have magnets in the US of A? You got a problem with our magnets? Maybe they’re not up to your exacting Canadian standards. Maybe we got the poles around the wrong way or something, huh?” “Actually, Ray, I was thinking of Magnetic Hill, just outside Moncton, New Brunswick, a place where cars reputedly roll uphill under their own steam.” “No shit.” “Shall we proceed?” “Yeah, okay.” “New Brunswick.” “Oh, jeez. I got no associations with New Brunswick.” “Well?” “[sigh] Canada.” “You know, Ray, you seem to have a remarkable number of associations with Canada, for someone who’s never been there.” “Bite me.”)
Most hilarious bit of dialogue I've read in a such a long time. I love how you managed to make this funny and angsty and awww all at once.
