We are edumacated...sum of us are even 10th grad graduates from the University. That makes most of us dawgs...more exact...BullDawgs. We bleed red and black and MUST pass thru Athens to get to Heaven. A lot of us drive them ole pick-me up trucks...gotta have somethin for the in-laws to live in. No room in the shack. We use trees for outhouses. Coka-cola is our drink of choice along with some of Jimmy's peanuts. Moonpies are a main dish. Southern fried chicken, fried green tomatoes, fried okry, and a mess of collard greens and chittlins with SWEET tea and watermelon is the BEST Sunday dinner ya'll ever had. Don't make fun of our Southern drawl...it's taken us years to perfect it. We fly ALL flags... American, Confederate, State of Georgia, and of course...NASCAR. We love every one...cept for that General Sherman dude. Him not nice...think he's got a fire-fettish! Hot in Georgia makes the Devil think he's at the North Pole. (please take with the humor intended) Gotta admit...the pickup trucks do help with the hauling of new sewing machines and fabric! God Bless America and God Bless All of our friends across the world! |
In Boston there really are some people who don't pronounce their "R" s and it sounds really strange to the rest of us too.
|
If you say you live in Louisiana, it seems that the only city people from other states recognize is New Orleans. There's a world of difference between North Louisiana and South Louisiana!
|
Yes, there's a huge difference! I was born in Monroe and my family is in the Northeast of the state. New Orleans/South LA is like another country!!

No we are not all Mormon. We will not run you out of town if you won't be baptized. Yes we are Christians. There are more cities in Salt Lake County than Salt Lake. ha ha ha Yes you can buy a drink in the bar. But you might have to buy the membership first. (Although they were trying to change that law last year). O yaa Pologymy is still practiced. But not approved of. Usually not by Mormons. O and least of but not last Yes Utah is a state. It is on the map right between Colorado and Neveda and its south of Idaho and north of Arizona Have a great day Ladies I remember about not being able to buy beer except at a State Liquor store. In Arizona we buy our beer, wine, etc at the local grocery store. |
No, we don't have kangaroos/koalas for pets.
Yes, we do live in houses - and have indoor plumbing. Yes, we do speak English. We do have supermarkets, banks, etc. Amazing how many people when you say you live in Australia say, "Then you must know my cousin, neighbour, friend, etc, he/she lives in Australia" ! Australia is a BIG country. For example, Queensland is 3 times BIGGER than the UK - and that is just one State! Western Australia occupies the entire Western third of Australia, and is two thirds the size of Europe. |
Missouri is not Missery, I like it here, you really pronounce it Missouri not Misora, everyone here seems to think you have to like the Cardinals and the Rams,or the Royals and the Cheifs, you CANNOT like both, I would rather be quilting so I don't favor either one, I do have to say that the motto "The Show Me State" implies that we are stupid and you have to show us how to do something, but it really means tha we are not easily swayed by eloquent words and you have to literly show us that you mean buisness, and you better be able to back up those words!!!LOL
