Is it obvious to you when someone not from the south tries to speak with a southern accent?
Do you pronounce pecan "peh-cahn" or "pee-can"?

they don't think they won they just can't stand that they lost, and it really pisses me off everytime I see the confederate flag. It's stupid to keep flying a flag after you lost a war, it's over get over it. My dad and I took a road trip through Tenn.,North Carolina,Georgia and Miss. and in alot of areas you see flags,t-shirts,bumber stickers ect. that say dumb shit like ''the south will rise again''. All that's telling people is that you wish you would've won and that you don't mind slavery.
yes it is Aggravating that people think we're all rednecks, don't get me wrong there's alot of 'em down here but it's not all of us, the jackasses that wave the confederate flag around qualify as top of the line rednecks though.
Yes it's painfully obvious when somebody tries to speak with a southern accent, after you've heard it all your life from people who you know are southern when you hear it from somebody who's faking it's completely obvious.
as for the last question, yes. |
