Amerikans love caustick things; they would prefer turpentine tew colone-water, if they had tew drink either. So with their relish of humor; they must hav it on the half-shell with cayenne. An Englishman wants hiz fun smothered deep in mint sauce, and he iz willing tew wait till next day before he tastes it. 436If you tickle or convince an Amerikan yu hav got tew do it quick. An Amerikan luvs tew laff, but he don’t luv tew make a bizzness ov it; he works, eats, and hawhaws on a canter. I guess the English hav more wit, and the Amerikans more humor. We havn’t had time, yet, tew bile down our humor and git the wit out ov it. |
