What the hell is a "provincial American"?
You don't know the meaning of the word provincial or do you mean you've never encountered it in this context?
Yeah as I thought. Given that America has no providences, my question was more than fair.
I think they believe in Providence?
That's not how you use the term. Provincial as an adjective isn't solely tied to geographic distribution in counties that formally use provinces as a regional government form.
I explained what I meant in other reply.
I honestly thought you know what I meant and were trying to discuss something else entirely. Sorry about that.
I appreciate you explaining. Sorry for assuming you were being condescending.
All good man. It happens with text based online convos. :)
Ah I see, as I expected, just trying to sound smart. Otherwise you would've just explained it
That was a genuine question, I thought you knew what I was saying and questioning the very existence of the concept.
Americans with a provincial outlook; a belief that local mores are the only legitimate way to look at things, lack of interest in different/new ideas.
As opposed to you, who seems to be trying to sound dumb.
Thanks for the tag request
I don't like you.
I suspect you're repeating something you've heard a lot
You're a noob.
And you've nothing of value to add so why insist on writing meaningless drivel?
You're not cool.
