Overheard on Agents of SHIELD: "It's on Baffin Island, off the coast of Canada."
(Baffin Island is part of Canada.)
I like the show, but at least once an episode, I'm rolling my eyes at it. They like to stretch to boundaries of what is believable.

Hmm. For future reference, what would be the proper way to say that? Off the coast of mainland Canada? I've never actually considered such situations.
Get that weak shit off my track
People say Catalina off the coast of California. Catalina is part of California. It's just another one of those weird language artifacts.
Baffin Island is substantially larger than those, though. It's quite the landmass.

Tasmania, off the coast of Australia? Aleutian Islands, off the coast of Alaska? The Keys, off the coast of Florida? Nantucket or Martha's Vineyard, off the coast of Massachusetts? Madagascar, off the coast of Africa? Sicily, off the coast of Italy? Mykonos, off the coast of Greece? Meh, semantics IMO. There are plenty of issues to be had with the show, but that's a pretty lame on
Baffin Island, off the coast of Canuckistan
We have a bit of a running joke in the control room at my station involving "Off Japan." I guess we had a story about something that happened off Japan, like a water rescue or something, and there was debate as to whether it was correct. Then it accidentally aired over some other story. But it's not wrong...
