obviously i was being sarcastic (badly by the looks of it).

Maybe if you're in Houston that's considered ok, but those of us raised in Dallas have a little more class
on the serious tip, I think it all depends on how long your family has been in the US and whether you call it the civil war or the war of northern aggression. I know it's easy and cool to not give a fuck about these sorts of things, but language is powerful and it reveals a lot about us and our relationships to eachother... Also, any proper Texan knows the difference between a southern and central American.

seriously, you've never met a british person with bad teeth? ever? it might not be ubiquitous but they are everywhere! surely you've seen jezza kezza? they've all snaggle tooth morons on there. and let me say, i'm half french and have spent a lot of time in france, there's a country with some dental hygiene issues!

FWIW "Yanky" is actually a derogetory term (a "homosexual" reference) that should be offensive to all Americans.
(not because it's a "homosexual" reference, but just that it's spiteful in general)

haha I could definitely see someone getting punched out for calling a person a yank in the south.
The term yankee really only applies to cool states

jk
And about that yanky comment, are we sure that's the same word as Yankee?
Oh shit... you know when you read a word too many times and it looses all meaning... that last time I wrote Yankee was definitely where I crossed that line

Yank/Yankees in the US is too closely related. Kinda lost its effect

Texas might be south, but it's different from the SOUTH, if you get me... i got a lot of peoples in the actual dirty tho, and they would rather be called
anything other than a yank
