. Yeah, we have sweet tea. It comes in a glass with two packets of sugar and a long spoon. No one from the south would say this. And definitely not in LA. (lower Alabama)
It should read: Yeah we have sweet tea. Is there any other kind?

Well, fortunately for you, he is looking for a new home, perhaps you would enjoy this "out of the box thinker" next door to you! lol.......He would probably fit right in. He can't move right next door.My father owns the 24 acres around my 3 acres. My sister ,mother, and grandparents live down the road. We have a gun-toting Mormon hunting fantic also down the road next to my sister's home. Also ,we once had a neighbor who lived in a barn with his horses ,until he shot his girlfriend and himself.There's also two Baptist ministers(one black,one white) and a boy scout campground on this road.

Well.....lol.......now ya see, it is EASY for you to joke because you have a little land around you insulating you from the world full of idiots like the one this poor man has to put up with......lol......... good for you......I hope you enjoy every single inch of that land!

Hey all y'all... More tips for Yankee b@st@rds:
Tips for Northerners moving south
1. Save all manner of bacon grease. You will be instructed later how to use it.
2. If you forget a Southerner's name, refer to him (or her) as "Bubba". You have a 75% chance of being right. (Perhaps "Bubbina" or "Bubbett" would work for the girls?)
3. Just because you can drive on snow and ice does not mean we can. Stay home the two days of the year it snows.
4. If you do run your car into a ditch, don't panic. Four men in the cab of a four wheel drive with a 12-pack of beer and a tow chain will be along shortly. Don't try to help them. Just stay out of their way. This is what they live for.
5. Don't be surprised to find movie rentals and bait in the same store.
6. Do not buy food at the movie store.
7. If it can't be fried in bacon grease, it ain't worth cooking, let alone eating.
8. Remember: "Y'all" is singular. "All y'all" is plural. "All y'all's" is plural possessive.
9. There is nothing sillier than a Northerner imitating a southern accent, unless it is a southerner imitating a Boston accent.
10. Get used to hearing, "You ain't from around here, are ya?"

I remember my Mother and Grandmother "saving" bacon grease and using it for cooking....... the thought of that gags me now......lol.........I rarely fry anything these days - and the only time I use bacon grease is if I decide to use freshly cooked bacon, then saute onions or mushrooms in the grease.........
I'd be willing to bet that many Southerners remember that "jar" used to collect bacon grease though........

Well I don't eat alot of bacon and whatnot, trying to watch the beergut and all, but I won't turn ya down if you twist my arm...

Maybe it's a Yankee thing, but hot bacon grease on fresh spinach leaves ain't all that bad. I think they also add sliced egg and some bacon crumbs. I'll have to look it up.

After living in the south for 27 months, I still don't eat turtle - but I have been to all-you-can-eat catfish fries - not bad (I still prefer Pacific Northwest salmon, though). I've seen turtles in the rivers here.
Any doubting freepers should turn on the Masters right now on CBS. Visible proof why parts of Georgia, TN, VA, and the Carolinas are close to paradise.

Oh my goodness, that story is hilarious! Loved the burnt backyard and the waterspout cum garden waterfall.
That site deserves its own thread!
