You asked what he thought. He said he doesn't give two shits.

Yank - an American; pertaining to anything American.

Yank - American - a native or inhabitant of the United States

Yank - A term used by the British to describe all Americans.

Yank - an archiac and insulting word that people from other countries use to describe americans.

Yank - A Twat who comes from America to London and calls the Tube a Subway

.... and so on ....


You stick to your definition and the rest of us six billion inhabitants of the planet will stick to ours. We call you Yanks, not Yankees, and we don't give a shit whether you're from the North or South.

Yank is short for Yankee. What part don't you understand?

You, dumbass, are aren't the only person outside the United States. Yankee and Yank have been used by foreigners to describe Americans. Where the fuck do you think the word Yank came from?

Use the noggin, Rio Ava 1234 leftism Billy Rikk Piece O Shit.

I didn't see it, just listened on the internet radio, but it sounded like we were lucky to get a point. At least it doesn't really help any of the teams chasing us, I'm sure they're fighting for third place this season.

Well done to the Hoops for qualifying too, those away goals you scored at Old Trafford secured it for you.

I don't understand how you can be so thick. Yank and Yankee are two different words, regardless of their origin.

Good way to play it off. Now you are arguing that they two different words.

No one else argued that they weren't.

You made out as if there was huge a difference between the 2 words and there wasn't besides the spelling.

Are aren't you the stupid one now?

Cheers, first time and all that. Did you see Nakamura's free kick at Paradise, fucking amazing. Tho' to be fair it wasn't really a free kick in the first place.

It would be a nightmare for your chaps to be knocked out by Benfica, wouldn't that be two years in a row. I can't see it happening tho'

To be honest I think Sir Alex would take it if he could win the premiership this season.

They are two different words busybody, hence the two different spellings.

I made out no such thing, I merely pointed out that we use the word Yank to describe Americans, we don't use the word Yankee.

No, it's OK busybody, you're safe, no-one could out-stupid you.

Careful now, if VB pops in you'll be reported in jig time.

I remember we called them Yankees during the war. The Big One like, not one of your wee modern "wars".

Things were better, back in the day. Even our wars.
