Would you classify Taylor as an Uncle Tom?

I grew up in Chicago and we were taught to say yes sir and yes mame/mrs/miss... And to use terms like Mr and Mrs/Miss...it's not a southern thing it's a respect thing

[K-DOGG]

I'm from the South too and respectful manners doesn't mean you like someone. Ask any Yankee who's spent ime in the South about the so-calles Southern Hospitality. undefined

HA HA!!! Ain't that the truth!

Here's a hint for any "yankees"..."Bless his/her heart" can be taken a variety of ways.

No doubt. You had good folks. I was merely implying that I have run across many more "outwardly rude" Northerners than Southerners.

I know America has never really gone big on irony, but this is something new.

In the Lounge recently there were lots of anti-Brit threads like "do you think Brits are gay?" and so on. So I did my own thread as a parody of that. It seems it went over some people's heads.

I knew you were being sarcastic with that thread but now this thread comes up and now I think you really are ignorant about Americans as I thought.

Oh..I had to correct the "ass" part, because mostly when someone say an "ass", if they're not talking about a person , they're referring to mules...which are a half-breed between a horse and a donkey.
