At least you didn't bless my heart...

When asked if British people had better manners, Steven Petrow [author of Complete Gay and Lesbian Manners] said:
Quote:
Anything you say always sounds so much better because of your accents!” he laughs.
“I think you can get away with just about anything in my book. In a way you’re like Southerners in the U.S., many of whom have a melodious tongue and are as sweet as pie to your face. But don’t turn your back – and pray that no one ever says to you, “Bless your heart.” That’s really a pox on your house!
