My Blue Neck Email

Meowsy · Posted: Sep 23, 2004 5:34 am Post subject: My Blue Neck Email

This is an email I just sent out I thought it was funny so I want to share it with you all! I am a Southern Bell Baby!

Ok so my cute Northern friend Tara sent me this and I was readin it and just had so many things to say that I decided to add them in and share my thoughts with all of you!
My comments are followed after the smiley

Feel free to add in what you think this could turn out to be really funny if you guys put your 2 cents in! Cause you fools is crazy!

Megan I am sure you know of a few more things to add!

>Blue Necks

>

>Blue Necks are Northerners -- the opposite of Rednecks.

Because of

Redneck jokes, here are some takes on how Southern folks look at

Northerners (or how Northerners sometimes think of themselves;)

YOU JUST MIGHT BE A BLUE NECK IF...

> ...Instead of referring to two or more people as "Y'all," you

>call them "you guys," even if both of them are women.

>....You think barbecue is a verb meaning "to cook outside." Very Happy

$ No baby that's some Pork on a bun with some slaw and hot barbecue sauce oh yeah and some sweet pickles! Yum I am hungry now! Which brings me to this~ all of you Northerners that have never eatin at What~a~Burger need to let me know so I can take you and treat you to the correct way to eat a Burger!

>...You think Heinz Ketchup is really SPICY. Very Happy

$ HUH!

>...You would never stop to buy something somebody was cooking on the side of the road. (e.g., boiled peanuts, not road kill, Dummy!)

> ...You don't have any problems pronouncing "Worcestershire sauce"correctly.

> ...For breakfast, you would prefer potatoes-au-gratin to grits. Very Happy

$ What I thought it was cream of wheat not potatoes!

> ...You don't know what a moon pie is. You have probably never watched a moon pie in a microwave. Awesome! Question

$ What happens to a moon pie in the microwave?

> ...You've never had an RC Cola. Very Happy

$ Or SUNDROP OR Cheerwine

> ...You've never, ever eaten okra -- fried, boiled, or pickled. Wink

$ I LOVES me sum okra now! and sqaush

> ...You eat fried chicken with a knife and fork. Shocked

$ And hot wings! You are not surpose to eat hot wings with a knife and fork! Pick them suckers up and get messy b/c that's half the fun!

> ...You have no idea what a polecat is. Question

$ What in the hell is a polecat?

> ...You don't see anything wrong with putting a sweater on your dog. Smile

$ Hell if it's cold and the dog is little I don't see a problem with that. My Grandma is the Southernist woman you will ever meet and she has been putting sweaters on her doggys since I can remember!

> ...You would rather have your son become a lawyer than grow up to get his own TV fishing show. Idea

$ I thought the song said Don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys! And BTW fishin' is FUN!

> ...You drink either "Pop" or "Soda"- instead of "Cokes." Razz

$ And this one! I have heard it alot but I have never heard anyone down hear call a Sundrop a Coke! Hello you could get jailed for that!

> ...You have never planned your summer vacation around a gun-'n-knife show. Laughing

Oh but it's OK for "you guys" to plan your vacations around Nascar !

> .. You have never been hep'd. Rolling Eyes

$ OMG! That's the best that could be thought of! How about some phases like ~ You ount to? Aight! ~ Geter Done! ~ Look over Yonder ~

> ...You think more money should go to important scientific research at your university than to pay the salary of the head football coach Laughing

$ Football bores me and who the hell came up with Final Fantasy Football stuff? Northerners I am sure!

> ...You have never gone to a family reunion to pick up women. Shocked

$ Hell what about guys? j/k! Laughing

> ...You don't even have one can of WD-40 somewhere around the house. Laughing

$ Duct Tape can fix anything! Hell if your window in your car breaks you can fix it!

> ...You couldn't find the eye of the stove if your life depended on it. Question

$ Me either! My stove has an eye? weird!

> ...You don't have any hats in your closet that advertise feed stores or Tractor companies. Very Happy

$ OK now I bet this one is a lie b/c trucker hat were in style for a while. Even if you Northerners bought it at the GAP It's still the same!

> ..You have more than one professional sports team in your home state. Laughing

$ Yeah but I bet you don't have professional mudd wraselin' and Drag Strip Racin!

> ..You call binoculars opera glasses.

>...You can't spit out the car window without pulling over to the side of the road and stopping. Laughing

$ Now I can do this but most of the spit ends up on my face!

>...You can't spit without opening your mouth. Laughing

$ Hey NOW THAT'S TALENT!

>...You don't know anyone with at least two first names (i.e., Joe Bob, Faye Ellen, Billy Ray, Mary Jo, Bubba Dean, Joe Dan, Mary Alice) ...You

>don't know any women with male names (i.e., Tommie, Bobbie, Freddie, Johnnie, Jimmie, Ricki) ...

You don't have Maw-maw's, Me-maws, Pawpaw's or Pappaw's. Wink

$ Now I have all of these including a Popi, Pepaw, Nanny, Mama Gin, and a Paw! I Loves em!

> ...You get freaked out when people on the subway talk to you. Laughing

$ I have never been on a subway unless you count the sandwich shop! I need to do that Jered diet thing cause my ass is blowin up!

> ...None of your fur coats are homemade. Laughing

$ Well I don't own a homemade coat but I do live in a single wide trailer with a Big purple Transfer Truck in the field next to me and behind my momaw Jerri! Is that redneck?

Polecat is something like a bobcat. It's not a skunk.

I live in Florida and the only southern thing that I say by accident sometimes is:
y'all
other than that I have kind of a weird accent since I grew up in a variety of places:Central America (4 years), South Africa (6 Years) and lastely Florida - USA (the last 18 years)......definitely not a southern accent.

Hey Jay I was up at Snowbasin and some locals from Ogden were on the gondola with me chatting it up.....the "y'all" came out...they wondering what the hell happened to me!....guess its not too common out there!

chaz28o, We are from the south, nothing is official around here. btw, you were in GA, those people are weird over there. They have no clue... Wink

Being from the south, i rarely use to 'ya'll' word. I usually say everyone or everybody.

Are you being serious? I've been working there for 3 years and I've never been told about how formal to talk with them... I just get their order and move on.

Chales, I wasn't trying to come off as "this is how you should do it" guy. Maybe our idea of a country club is quite different from eachother. When I think of a cc, I think white table cloth, several diff pieces of silver, 2-3 plates, 2-3 glasses. But I know of others that are just tables w/ chairs. Different perspective I guess.
