Midlanderers are more or less from the north.

God damn it not this again...

Why does no-one ever take the mick out of midlanders

What? No one takes the piss out of Brummies? I think you'll find it is a rich vein of humour.

Yeah but in genelra it is just their dozy accents. I guess their heritage isn't as rich as the north which as you have shown has many iconic phrases and characterisitcs for people to jealously mock.

I think you're getting jealousy confused with pity and contempt.

There are twats in the north, and twats in the south. There are nice people in the north, and nice people in the south. Both the north and south have reasons to recommend them as good places to live. I've lived in both.

The reason I created this thread was to find out what the souterners on BCG (which I would guess is about seventy percent of BCGers) thought about northerners, hence this sort of oppinion does make it clear- though I do think you perfectly fit the type of bean burger and homus eating southerner I have often encountered.

Heh. All this thread proves is that, when confronted with a bit of (even if friendly/jokey) hostility, people will return that hostility back.

I find your reasoning perplexing.

I eat bean burgers and humous. I'm from the north.

Are you from the north in 1974?

Hmmm bean burgers and humous!

That is a very fair post although I will add that some people may think that there are more twats in the South from reading this thread simply because every twattish post in here has been made by a Southerner.

Oh and yes like I have said before, Aaron seems to be a comedy stereotype of a Southerner.

I'm from the North as well, and I used to carry a battery-powered dictionary around with me.

T some people may think that there are more twats in the South from reading this thread simply because every twattish post in here has been made by a Southerner.

I'm guessing you are a Northerner, in which case you stand in danger of undermining your own argument.
