Can you give a concrete example you specifically encountered? I lived in New York for half of my adult life before moving west. I can’t remember ever having to be too worried about that. Is it possible you just have trouble expressing yourself outwardly?

Well, there's always passive-aggressive insults. That's considered a low-risk approach.

Looks like we've pretty much exhausted this thread. I'll just exit, stage left.
