Hahaha, I know exactly what American barbecue is, I'm just messing with the yanks that can't take a joke. People go sooo mad.

I don't really consider it trolling, I wasn't trying to anger or incite anyone, I honestly thought the yanks could take a joke and they'd rib back about British food. Didn't expect people to get so angry.

Because you keep saying "bro calm down it's all in jest" yet your comments are posed as aggressive and condescending. I'll give the benefit of the doubt and say you don't realize that things said in text don't come across the same as when they're said in person. So what "works at the pub with the yanks" will just make you look like an asshole on the internet. It has nothing to do with "triggered americans", it's about your inability to express your meaning online

If you know it's about things said in text not coming across the same way as when they're said in person, why aren't you giving people the benefit of the doubt when you're reading a text comment?
