You're right in that it's much quieter out West. Once I get east of about STL it's incredible how much nonsense there is. But please, leave your condescension towards RJ guys out of this.
I think the slam should be on "certain" RJ carriers, not because someone flies an RJ.
We were in a south central TX area recently, virtually nobody on Center besides our mainline 737 flight, the rest were RJ's. Guard was full of J.O.'s with every retread transmission (IMHO, transmissions are acceptable if they are damn funny and come from true creative talent). the Transmissions were clear, they weren't bleed over from south KS. There is also something easily identifiable with early 20 something humor. Trust me, I was a J.O. with 20 something humor once.
