ABC's, Southern Style

Thanks to Malystryx for the idea.

A is for alligator in your swimming pool, your sewer, or your stew

B is for "bless her heart", big hair, and beer

C is for country music, cow pies, and chicken livers fried

D is for dixie land

E is for Extreme Sports: 30 year old rednecks with a keg, dynamite, and an available sewer. Good times!

F is for furriner - anyone north of Tennesse or west of the Mason-Dixon line

G is for grits, gravy, and gun racks on every truck

H is for humidity the likes of which the rest of the country has never seen

I is for interpreter: what you need to understand people in the deep South

J is for Jack Daniels (Mr. Daniels if you're a furriner)

K is for Krispy Kreme

L is for livestock traffic reports (problems with poultry on Hwy 40...) and lawnmowers with v-8 engines.

M is for mosquitos the size of golf balls and Mullets (the always fashionable hair style of choice for the style-conscious redneck)

N is for NASCAR

O is for okra (okri if you're really backwoods)

P is for Piggly Wiggly, pecan pie, and pass the gravy

Q is for quantity (big hair, big families, big attitude)

R is for redneck (known by their accent and their fine assortment of broken down appliances displayed to best advantage on their front lawn)

S is for sweet tea

T is for turnip greens

U is for "U better get off my property, boy, before I reload my shotgun. I won't miss a second time."

V is for vinegar, required condiment for greens

W is for wild turkeys (by the dozens), the War of Northern Aggression, and Walmart

X is for xenophone (the inherent distrust southerners have of furriners from places like Idaho and Michigan)

Y is for "ya'll come back now, you hear?"

Z is for zig-zag, the pattern you must run to avoid a redneck's shotgun blast.

If I missed anything, feel free to add it with a comment!

  2. Honestly, if you don't know what's wrong with eating deep fried organs whose sole purpose is to process WASTE and turn it into EXCREMENT, I really don't know what to say.
