You should have seen it here today! Luckily the blossom isn't out yet, because wind and rain and more wind ...

Hah! That's nothin'! Here, we've had thirty one consecutive days of rain, from March 1 to March 31. [/one-downsmanship]

I knows when I've been four Yorkshiremen-ed.

Oh, awesome. I looked that up.

There's a similar American comic tradition--usually by black comedians, I think--about growing up in the ghetto or the projects, with "Where I grew up, it was so bad that..." (fill in the blank).

And there's the "uphill both ways" take on it, to wit, "You kids think you have it hard? Well, when I was your age, I had to walk to school! In the snow! Uphill! Both ways!"
