    It was meant to be a tongue-and-cheek confirmation that, yes, I was joking about the American south.

    It didn’t land well.

      Ok, then I’m sorry.

      There’s a thing about any conversation online being interrupted by Americans making it about themselves and saying some incredibly patronising things… And that phrase is really only ever heard as that here.

      But I see this might not be the case, so I apologise for my hostility there.
