Well, yeah. But they don’t all *live *there, they just drive their jalopy trucks there for vacation, between moonshine bottling and coon-hunting season.
This had occurred to me. In fact, it’s what I am guessing is happening with the OP.
So do any of these southerners give any reason why they feel they’re superior? Or is it just that that’s what they been told from a young age, and they never asked anyone to elaborate with a reason?
Because I honestly can’t think of one.
Welcome back, Skald. It seems that in your absence, the Dope has developed into a wretched hive of snark and pedantry. Feel free to unleash the bees.
The same reasons, at heart, that Muslim countries they THEY are superior…religion, mainly. They might say Northerners are rude, too, but I think that’s more a complaint about individuals, whereas the general “South is better” argument would be religion-based.
No it isn’t. Like anyone else in the world, they just like their way of life. New Yorkers, Californians, Brazilians, and Parisians all feel the same way.
Honestly no they haven’t. The two girls who gave me the quotes were kinda blowing me off from the beginning. Maybe the next time I’ll ask. Although the newest one did scoff and say a “nice accent…where are you from” before she gave me the quote.
In a completely separate thing…I think they manufacture legs in Alabama too because I have never seen more leggy girls in my life than I have down here…
Not related but the OP needs to get his butt over to the Naval Aviation Museum down there over in Pensacola. World class. Make a day of it.
How about Miracle Whip added to Jello? I think that is a food group in the South.
Dear god, no.
Where did you live in the South? I don’t ever want to go there.
barf
Whaddaya think this is, the fifties?
Been there done that my friend. I LOVE that place.
Gonna visit the battleship too in Mobile here eventually
No. It’s more of a “We’re rednecks and we love our redneck way of life and we don’t need anyone from anywhere else telling us how to live.”
At least that’s what I have observed living my entire life in Alabama.
I’d say the opportunity of being neighbors with Sampiro is a pretty good reason for lots of stuff.
Skald! Good to see you, guy! I’ve been missing you.
Yeah, they can be bitches but imagine those loooong legs wrapped around you. And have fun with your imagination because that’s as close as you will get. You’d have better luck with Orthodox Jewish women with their long, raven tresses exposed just for you…
Not until you’ve added the shredded vegetable matter.
Thanks. (Since two of the people I love most in the world live in Gulf Shores and a third is from there, I’m electing to choose my battles and stay out of this thread. Though I will admit I’m seething and jonesing to enter.)
We know to capitalize “Southerner”.
Was he gone?
