Humor IS shared by both Americans and British, as is misinterpretation, misunderstanding and becoming indignant/offended over the strangest things.
It isn't an Americans vs. the British thing, it's a histonet thing. Over-reactions are rampant and one should be aware that having a sense of humor should have a "Use at your own risk" sign when utilizing it on this forum. In every group there will always be a number of folks more interested in attacking what is being said by others rather than contributing something of their own.
Each year this trend gets a bit worse & I find myself "replying to all" less and less. Posting to an individual usually causes less of a stir so that is the road I take much more these days.

It's the humour Robyn, rarely travels well, I sometimes wonder if the
difference between Americans and the British is greater than that
between men and women.
