Members RA1 Posted August 2, 2015 Members Posted August 2, 2015 I don't know how I missed this before. As has been stated many times before the English and the Americans are peoples separated by one language. Did I miss the many other iterations possible? Folks in the South think that Yankees but really northeasterners say Jesus Christ all the time while Southerners say son of a bitch or motherfucker. I do not recommend using either one unless you are surrounded by good friends who happen to be Marines or everyone in the group knows what an asshole you are anyway. There are other things to be said but they are about as important as this subject itself. Best regards, RA1 AdamSmith 1 Quote
