Some things are just not considered funny....people bashing of any kind is usually high on the list.

Errr yeah sure Jane - I'm your favorite lil southern trailer dwelling redneck right?

Depends on the context. I thought it was pretty obvious that I was being cheeky with my "running", and my smiley faces.. and the over exaggeration of stereotypes.. I guess not? Sowwy.

Yes, and my favourite tempermental redhead although you do have that habit of trying to keep all the hottest reality men to yourself.

Shhh.. don't tell.

I've always thought that Americans of the south are more Canadian-like in manner, politer etc, but maybe that's just a stereotype as well. Back to reading Gone With The Wind.

I was almost offended for a second, but I knew you were joking.

Why, Lotus, of coure we're polite - even when we say things that are insulting or tacky we say it in a nice, syrupy sweet way...for example:

"Bless his heart, you could put his brain in a thimble and still have room for your finger." "Bless her heart, when she walks you can almost smell flesh burn them thighs are so big."

All said with a smile, of course.

I guess my cutting edge humor is a bit too much for the forum today. I was just trying to change people's perception of Canadians. Not all of us are polite..
