"Omega cock"? I thought we were all of the opinion there was no such thing...
Okay, sorry, but I saw the opportunity to take a cheap shot at Omega, and I took it. Don't any of you even try to say you wouldn't have done the same... *LOL*

Which reminds me of my original point. Tec said that Europeans do to them what they do to us, pidgeon all US citizens in one hole. He says that (apparently) you all refer to each other as "New Yorkians" or "Oregonians". I was attempting to point out that there's a wee bit of difference between a group of states, and a group of countries. You speak the same language, you have the same leaders, you watch the same TV. The US is ONE country. Europe is not.
Oh, and Ritten, what do you mean by "Irish-American"? Over here most people would count "foreign blood" as far back as maybe grandparents, but still, no-one would call themselves "Irish-English".

Actually, we pidgeon whole each other more by accent then anything else. I've never heard of the term "Oklahomian", although I have heard "Marylander" from time to time ... and "New Yorker", no "Connecticutian" or "Massachussetians" either ...
Mostly its, "Gee, what is that strange accent you have?"
