I'm from the East Coast Mike, and actually, the same state as you. So I get your humor. I do. And to be honest, I like it as well, but it doesn't translate well in text. The majority of people on this forum aren't from where that stuff makes sense. Believe me, my first instinct is to bust balls and be a smart ass all the time, but I've found that this doesn't translate well so I tend to avoid it online.
It's really quite amazing that the global members of this forum speak English and level the playing field for the rest of us. To me, that is such a gift as I barely speak another language. I really appreciate Eli, Rafa, Davito, Rocket, and a bunch of others who make the effort to make this forum enjoyable for us all by writing in English. It's only fair that the rest of us show respect to those that aren't from where we're from. That goes for our humor as well. If the joke doesn't come across, then it's no longer a joke.
With all of that being said, I appreciate Chris using English on this forum as well, because we all know what they speak in Texas isn't really English

It's cool, Chris isn't really Texan
On the Mikes humour thing, when I met Mike I expected him to be a bit of a dick as I didn't really get a lot of his humour. After meeting Mike I now totally get his humour and I know that he's not a bit of a dick, he's a complete dick, but I love that crazy hippy all the same

Wow, I was joking around with the pee water thing. A USA East Coast attitude/humor is hard to swallow for some people. It's called ball busting. If you took it personal, that's your bad.
As a native east coaster, I concur with Mike. Being a dick is often referred to as ball busting

Damn Yankees…

You're all Yanks where I come from

In Mississippi parlance, that's a "carpetbagger"

I kind of enjoy the northeast Yankee version of y'all: yous.

As a native east coaster and complete asshole i have made an effort to stop my online assholishness because people don't generally get that it's a joke.

excuse me…that's only from philly to maybe connecticut.

As far as I'm concerned, seawolf, you're a Yankee, not a damn Yankee. We love Yankees. The damn Yankees are the ones we want to leave!
I guess I'm a reverse carpetbagger.

I've been south of the mason Dixon line for 6 years. I guess I'm a damn Yankee.
born and raised below the mason dixon…been in new england for 14 years now. i don't exactly know what that makes me.

I really don't like blue shirts and don't understand why guys have closets full of them. It's like your mom put you in blue for your first trip home from the hospital and you've never outgrown it.
On the flip side, I cannot wear any denim but blue. I've owned at least 10 pairs of black denim in my life and every time I put them on I feel like a poser.

Just an asshole. Well: that's what we Belgians call Americans we can't place…
This fucking guy.
