combines baseball talk with chav talk by pointing at Mr. Carroll's Yankees cap.
No. And yes. It's always sudden.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I can say the same thing about Tulsa
Except that Tulsa has no baseball team. All but the most psychotic ordinary citizens understand that Boston is a city of 600,000, compared to New York's eleventy million residents. It is only in baseball that Boston transforms into a chest-forward, neck-waggling, finger-pointing Jerry Springer guest.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
female chavs pull their hair tightly back in buns or ponytails, a style known as a "council house facelift,"
This makes me laugh. I'm not saying that it's nice to call people names, but still.

Also, race relations. In reputation, anyway.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Sometimes, I'm.... not nice.
Hey, are we B&T now? Should I be wearing tighter clothes?

Silence means security silence means approval
Except that Tulsa has no baseball team.
Aaah, but they have college football. Not quite on the "You were on the 40-man roster for the 2004 Red Sox? You're getting SOOO lucky tonight" level of insanity, but it's really, really bad.
There's an old saying that when someone moves to Oklahoma, before they pick a house or a doctor, they must pick between OU and OSU. And the easiest way to get kicked out of a family is to plan your wedding for OU-Texas weekend.
Also, race relations. In reputation, anyway.
See, also an area in which Boston and Tulsa are analogues. Boston had the busing riots of the 70s. Tulsa had the Greenwood Riot of 1921. Both are never mentioned in conversation, polite or otherwise.
Tulsa: Boston's long lost twin brother, countrified.

B&T is more than living in an outer borough. It's a whole lifestyle that can include, lawn ornaments, gold chains, really tight t-shirts, neon on your car, heading to the middle village on a wekkend night, thick accents, non-gay men shaving and/or waxing all or most of their torso, being really loud all the time.
