Reply #8: A conversation from a few years ago...

[Javaman]

I live and work in Austin, however, I'm originally from the northeast. I've had people ask me here if I was a Yankee. Taken back, I didn't know exactly what they meant, but at the time, I replied, "well, I'm a Yankee fan if that's what you mean". Later on, it dawned on me that the guy was serious. I found out later he didn't care much for my response. Oh, well, fuck him.

Anyway, I digress. A little over a year ago, a buddy of mine and I were joking around at work, during our little back and forth, another person walk into the conversation. My buddy states, in mock seriousness, "the south shall rise again!" I reply, "you me like zombies?" We both cracked up, the other guy, very red neck, blurts out, "that's not funny!"

Once again, my buddy and I look at each other and start cracking up. The other guy, gets all red in the face and stomps off.

Some people are so fucked up, I swear.
