Advice
for Yankees Moving South
1.
Save all manner of bacon grease. You will be instructed later how to
use it.
2.
Just because you can drive on snow and ice does not mean we can.
Stay home the two days of the year it snows.
3.
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.
4.
Don't be surprised to find movie rentals and bait in the same store.
5.
Remember: "Y'all" is singular. "All y'all" is
plural. "All y'all's" is plural possessive.
6.
Get used to hearing, "You ain't from around here, are you?"
7.
Don't be worried that you don't understand anyone. They don't
understand you either.
8.
Northerners can be identified by the spit on the inside of their
car's windshields, which comes from yelling at other drivers.
9.
If you are yelling at the person driving 15 mph in a 55 mph zone,
directly in the middle of the road, remember, many folks learned to
drive on a John Deere, and this is the proper speed and lane
position for that vehicle.
10.
If you hear a Southerner exclaim, "Hey, y'all, watch this!"
stay out of his way. These are likely the last words he will ever
say.
