A Zenbomb is a uniquely canadian twist on the jagbomb. After decades of piggybacking on the success of their southern neighbors it should come as no surprise that canadians would come up with a shortcut to spiritual enlightenment.

The Zenbomb essentially a shot of jagermeister laced with codeine that has been acquired through the cold water extraction method. Codeine in saline solution like this is extremely bitter to taste, so by adding it to jagermeister it is easier to ingest. Something about the jag greatly enhances the effects, leading to that inner peace that seems so hard to acquire.
dude, fuck yoga! You want inner peace? have a zenbomb!

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
