Resolved Question

In reference to my earlier question. YANKS.?

perhaps i should shed some light on my version of the term YANKS' and why the term disturbs me.
all you cannucks can go back to sleep. yeah.
From my reference point. and the reason i had certain reservations is because in europe/uk/and south east asia to a certain point ,perhaps out dated . the term was rhyming slang for septic tank , aka shit house .
i feel i needed to make this pertinent point.
Sorry for the double post. or what ever you call it here.

The rhyming slang, is just that, a rhyme, it doesn't mean that all Americans are viewed as actual septic-tanks or any other repository for faceal matter. Nobody really uses this sort of slang anyway anymore, unless they are not from London and/ or are between the ages of 45 and 60. It is sometimes pleasing to refer to 'fuc*ing septics', when the latest whitehouse incumbent announces their annual hit list of invadeable countries, but it's nothing personal.

You got it backwards .....Yank came first,..as in your very own history of "yankees and rebels",..as people were saying...The "septic tank" thing came after,.and is a seperate issue...
Really its pathetic if people get all touchy and reactive over nick-names...Especially if its people who invented and promoted words such as "mother f*****r....and Ars****e" etc....plus worse...
Anyway,...as an aussie...or "australian",...which has "alien" in it..(is that bad?)....i would easily slag off my fellow country-people if they did wrong stuff...
I would burn our flag if we became war-mongering fascists for no good reason...Irreverence is part of democracy and people power......
Its like our last most despised Prime Minister....
Everyone called him "Bloody Howard"....or "Dam Howard".....He was a rat,...wherever he came from,...or scurried off to...hahahahahaha...
So yair,...to be a yank is not necessarily a bad thing...
We all know theres plenty good ones...Just like any type of people...Best regards:)
