This is why we should make sweeping generalizations about places very few people live. Take for example Mississippi....they didn't outlaw slavery there until 1995. No seriously look it up.....1995. Mississippi: Bringing slavery into damn near the 21st century.

And in how many states is oral sex illegal?

It was later than that here (according to a QI I watched recently), apparently it was 2010

If I had such opinions about Yorkshire I would keep them to myself.

God look at some of the places in yorkshire plenty of shitholes and if you know the place I stayed and choose to call it that from personal experiences that would be your choice if thats the impression it left you with. One thing I would not do is try and change your mind or call it rude as pretty pointless as if someone develops a opinion of a place from spending months there someone telling them they are wrong on a forum is not going to change that. Oh someone giving up a seat for elderly/ pregnant people is not something to be amazed at should be the norm as basic manners. Same as holding the door open for someone behind you or coming the other way

You are indeed correct.

[searsa1]

You are indeed correct.

I am quite proud of myself. There is only so much you can learn looking out of one bloodshot eye sweating booze from the night before.
