As a 'Kiwi', I don't think being equated with an animal or bird is bad. If "Newfie" is meant derogatorliy, of course I would.
If it's just an expression to indicate where you come from - why worry?
I 'insulted' a US guy from Texas by calling him a 'Yank' - he was quite quick to point out, technically, Texans had never been "Yankees".
If it bothers you, try and get over it. |

Just when they call me a goofie newfie.. lol. No , not really. I live in Louisiana so most people have no clue where Nfld is. So it's actually kind of nice when I hear someone from here call me a newfie, when they find out I'm from there. |
