And just thinking about it - I don't believe I have ever heard the term used outside of the British and/or any former British colony/ruled country. So continue on using the word "Yanks" to refer to us when you are outside of the USA. If on the other hand you find yourself in the US - in the South - use the word Yankee's and precede it with "f**king" . . . you will be right at home - ![]() Ron (Born and Raised Southerner) ![]() |

If I was called a 'yank', I'd just assume that person knows a little too much about how I spend my personal time.

In Ireland the term "Paki" is very offensive.

I like dropping the Mc to come up with the greatest Irish surname of all, Murphy.

Off point from the OP, but we lived down in Shreveport, LA for the last 5+ years. Got along reall well with my neighbor. Never thought much of it but he mostly called me "Damn Yankee", which I thought was in jest. That is until I told him we were were moving. Oddly, after he found out we were moving up to Indiana he no longer used Damn and just called me "Yankee".
