Canada Is Not That Strange And Other Biases | Wednesday | Period 2
It was Wednesday which meant Fraser was up at the front of his class, looking alert and pleased to be there. He gave the class a smile as they assembled and settled down.
"Welcome back," he said, nodding at the class as a whole. "I hope you enjoyed last week's demonstration of how biases can play into food choice. Today, we're going to discuss biases a little more in depth. Most of you know what a bias is and most of you know that everyone has them, whether they be serious or less so. So, I want to have a discussion today. We're going to talk about your personal biases. Please share one bias that you think you have and that you're comfortable with sharing."
Fraser paused while he let the students begin to think of that. "For instance, one of my biases is that I think Canada isn't strange at all. Perhaps that's cheating because it's in the title of the course so I'll share another. I also think hockey is the most physically intensive sport. I'm sure you may have a differing opinion. So, share your biases and please feel free to discuss them with me and with each other. Let's get started."

I don’t know, you tell me. We need to have the strength and power of a football player, the stamina of a marathon runner, and the concentration of a brain surgeon. But we need to put all this together while moving at high speeds on a cold and slippery surface while 5 other guys use clubs to try and kill us.
Oh yeah did I mention that this whole time we’re standing on blades 1/8 of an inch thick? Is ice hockey hard? I don’t know, you tell me.
Next question.

(And I totes had to sign in under a different account because it feels like blasphemy to speak of my love for hockey using Sheppard icons.)

And make Sheppard suck it up
