@averagejoe1 saidWhat tickles me is that the Brits call the Americans “Yanks”.
I’m from the south. We speak a bit differently from other sections of the country. And we have great respect for women, we could never call a woman a guy, which Northerners seem to. Like, when they say you guys to girls and boys in the same group . Northerners have made inroads however to influence changes in our speech, .....more of us are using the word “right’ at the ...[text shortened]... e you.,”I’m well, thanks’. We say “I’m fine,”. To say ‘I’m well’ implies that you have been sick!!!🗣
But in the US, “Yank” is someone from above the Mason-Dixie line.
Anyhoo. If someone asks you how you are, in English:
“I’m doing well.” Means that you are doing good and healthy.
“I’m fine.” Means you’re not doing bad. Not quite as good as doing well.
So “well” goes with a hearty physical reaction... nodding the head (that’s about as hearty as I can get).
And “fine” is accompanied by a half shrug and a wincing of the left eye.

@averagejoe1 saidWhy did they turn off people’s heating?
Do y’all maybe know who that was? They wrote Earth First on a pipe, so it’s hardly anyone in my crowd, You folks are in a diff more liberal crowd, could be them. the earth deal people. Sounds cool, yeah, but here is the problem.
Freezing, no hot water. The paramount rule of life is to do unto others as you would have them do unto you . Do you fellers denounce this, ...[text shortened]... rs went BACK TO THEIR WARM HUTS, heated by the same gas,
Suzianne, jump on it!! Hypocrites!!
In the Winter?
Not very empathic, constructive or argument-winning.
It reeks either of stupidity drenched in anger, or people trying to lay blame on a certain group.

@averagejoe1 saidYou seem to be having trouble with "facts" that aren't factual.
What fact did I leave out? Curious indeed .
@athousandyoung saidWinter in Colorado and you think these spoiled little antifa queefs are living off the land?
How do you know they "went BACK TO THEIR WARM HUTS, heated by the same gas"?
Radical leftist guerillas are often deliberately "off the grid".
They can't go an hour without their face stuck to a cell phone and none of them are capable of surviving off the grid in sub zero weather, and even if they could they wouldn't want to..

@dood111 saidI’m sure Thousand tried to make a point, but, alas, as usual, flat on his face having given no thought to your presented reasoning.

The post that was quoted here has been removedDuchess I have many times said women have a right to get an abortion. I also say it is none of my business. You would agree???
So, Duchess, if it isNone of My Business, should I be in any way involved in the expense of her abortion? Should I? Should I pay her meds, I don’t even know her! She CHOOSES to get pregnant, and changes her mind, and wants me to pay for it.
Why won’t the libs on this forum ever face up to this?

The post that was quoted here has been removedDuchess, you are off-issue like Handy does all the time. And tell us, how can you denounce OilCorp profits when you using their natural gas to keep warm, their auto gas to go around the block, and your computer which was delivered by a truck???
NOW you are lacking logic, like Sonhouse. Man it will be a long 2021. ESP after Georgia Republicans lose both seats.

Biden's already talking about a third round of stimulus checks, and with a never ending series of unemployment extensions a lot of people will never have to work again.
2021 gonna be a socialist heaven. 😂
@shavixmir saidLol do you seriously think that the elastic on tartan knickers is any more reliable and remember I’ve lived in Scotland for thirty five years before you answer that.
Hahaha
Have you met English men?
No wonder gung-ho American heroes had an easy time!
I had a Scottish girlfriend who doesn’t know if her grandad was American or Polish and the Scottish husband wasn’t even away with the forces at the time.
@dood111 saidThe real thing to worry about the new administration is the way they intend to structure the power in government’ After such matters as the filibuster and packing the court etc. etc., it will be impossible to undo, and life will truly end as we know it. You know I just hate it, I’m not gonna qualify for all that free stuff. Guess I will just give my children free stuff!
