@waiki82232 жыл бұрын
You see, it’s funny for me having been living for the past 3 years in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. You hear “Bless your heart!”, “Bless your cotton socks” etc as words of appreciation or having done something kind, a real good deed. When you describe a patient who particularly miserable etc we say “It’s a sin!” As a sign of feeling truly sorry for that’s person’s suffering and misfortune. Looks like it’s complete opposite in the South of US…..

This video hit home. I was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama. I went to school in Massachusetts and California. Sometimes, it got on my last nerve. First, they would always ask why I didn't have an accent. Then, I got the cousins marrying thing. Then, it was the condescending "I am so impressed that you are in school here." And, finally, the big one (or two): Either, it was "you're not angry because I'm a Yankee, are you?" To which I respond "not everybody in the South is still fighting the Civil War!" Or, my personal favorite, "You must be so happy to get away from all that racist!" There is ALWAYS something that they just did that proves how stupid that question was. My favorite is when I get to ask them why they crossed the street when three black teenagers walked towards them.

Born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. However, I did spend a couple years in high school at a boarding school in Pennsylvania in the mid-80's...over Reagan's re-election campaign. Summer of '85 we had one girl arrive from another boarding school in South Carolina. She had the cutest accent I had heard, so I was thrown for a loop when she told us she was from Indiana. Then again, that fall, finishing high school back home, I can still recall my first day of Home Ec. class. We all introduced ourselves - there were really only 5 of us in an elective class - and I happened to mention that I had spent the last couple of years down in the US. As I was heading back to my seat, our teacher said "Yes, I can hear a bit of your American accent.", and I was thinking "Huh? *WHAT* accent?"

I hate Atlanta traffic and it always seems like those rules effect how bad it gets. It is never good .... ok it was during lock down and the majority of people didn't drive but before and after traffic around the airport is only beat by the traffic for the exit to I-20 on I-285. So if you have to go south or east or south east when you get out of the airport you are fucked if you are in the beginning of the day or end of the day or at 2am to 4am.

I moved to the south from California 30 yrs ago in my 40s. I love the Southern accent, the manners, everything. But TV and social media have done so much to strip away regional differences, and it's a loss. I'm fiercely defensive of the south. My mother was born and raised in Alabama, left in her 20s, and dealt with a lot of ignorance about where she was from. Somehow white southerners are still acceptable targets for discrimination.

The Instructor then asked if there was anyone with a Southern accent. The entire class said my name. The Instructor then asked if it was discriminatory to make fun of my accent.

It was crazy that people thought that. He was one of the smartest people I’ve ever met, but he never bragged about it. He was such a good man. He was so humble and so kind, and he loved his family dearly. He helped with the community a lot. He did so much good. Yet, if people talk to him, they wouldn’t think he was smart just because of where he came from and how he grew up talking. It’s crazy.

Then starting at the front, everyone stood up, introduced themselves, where they were from and a little about their qualifications. Everyone else was from either NJ or NY except one from Quebec and another from Philadelphia, then they finally got to me, the dude from Alabama. The looks on their faces, priceless. Even more priceless, when it turned out I knew more about the software than the instructor. The entire class wanted to sit with me at lunch that first day and proceeded to ask a bunch of ignorant questions. By midweek of that first week, I had thoroughly disabused them of the notion that they were more intelligent than the lone southerner, as they all came to me with their questions about the software.

She asked some of the same questions to me that were asked in the video! The one that I remember the most is "do you let your wives wear shoes"? Since this woman was so misinformed about the south, I played along. This made for a very entertaining evening. After dinner, one of the other southern reps pulled me aside and asked me why did I do that to that poor woman. My response was that she deserved it.

I live in Arkansas and one of my old teachers talked about going to a conference in New York. He said when he told people where he was from, multiple people looked down at his shoes and said "I thought people didn't wear shoes in Arkansas." He put on a super thick yokel accent and said "Nope, just bought my first pair today!"

I've never really had much issue from any of these states. The one that sticks out the most for me is Michigan. New York is a distant second. Namely they complain that we (Florida) don't have good pizza. That's not to say they all do it. I would say 75% love being here, and just mention pizza as a minor tradoff if they mention it at all. Ironically the most anti-south stuff I hear is from people in or near downtown Orlando. But I guess that confirms it's the dividing line between "true south" Florida and the rest of the state. Which I hate saying because I love my Cuban American bros in Miami.

That’s interesting… I sometimes have the hardest time GETTING technical support here in the South. Actually, I do better when I’m on the phone I think, but it’s not always convenient. I used to frequently have problems with tech support people who tried to tell me things like, “Oh no, your virus problem can’t be due to a vulnerability in our software.” And I’m going, “I’m a programmer’s daughter. I literally find the same virus in the same file every time in YOUR program, no matter how many times I’ve uninstalled, deleted, redownloaded, and reinstalled it! After some time, it ALWAYS shows back up in the SAME place!” Now, the virus itself may not have come from the program, but it would still always end up there. And I always knew when it had because my CPU usage would suddenly skyrocket. And they would still tell me that there wasn’t an issue with the software. 🙄 I noticed some time ago that the software in question no longer exists. The company replaced it with a completely different program. 😂 This isn’t the only time I’ve been treated this way, but it’s the only specific incident that comes to mind.

Good for Her!! I get so angry at the media and internet portrayal of the South. What people don't understand about the South is that there are different dialects, ways of speaking, dressing, entertaining, singing, and welcoming people in every state. An example is Tennessee which is broken up into 3 very distinct areas West TN, East TN and Middle TN. West TN was very accurately portrayed in the movie The Firm. Its hospitality, dress, and city of Memphis are all portrayed very well. Middle Tennessee is where Nashville is located. Nashville as of 2021 is no longer a Southern city in any way. It has become the West Coast of the South much like Atlanta. Just below Nashville are Columbia, TN and Spring Hill where the Old South lives on in Architecture, traditions of grace and friendliness. In East TN are the mountains and small villages and cultures. So that is just one way the South is different that the stereotypes of Hollywood.

I lived in Alabama for several years, that "bless your heart" was a step shy of "When did you just say", in a frosty tone. Bless your heart can be anything from "cute baby", to "go straight to the pit of the hottest place you can imagine". "What did you say "following "Bless your heart" is "let me help you meet Jesus, and you will not like his attitude today." I had a garden, so all my "bless your heart's" were sent with food.

I had a conversation with a professor about this once. She's from Pennsylvania, I'm originally from Washington, (the state, not the city.) She mentioned to me after class as we were chatting how she'd come to learn what it means, basically Southern sarcasm when anything but is meant. Even after living here for 16 years, I still identify partly as a west-coaster. It's like Southern isn't just where you live ... it's a way of life you kind of have to be raised in. I'd feel like I was participating in cultural appropriation if I ever called myself Southern.
