So I need something to believe
'Cause I am living just to breathe
And I need something more
To keep on breathing for
So give me something to believe

Truths of Life

Some things I've learned in my lifetime...

  • Yellow snow is not lemon flavored
  • The less time that I have to do something, the faster I get it done
  • Having a good attitude about something makes it more enjoyable
  • Treasure every moment with friends and family... you never know when it might end
  • Eating a peanut-butter and chocolate dessert, then drinking sweet tea is NOT a good combination
  • Real friends like you for who you are- not for your stuff, or for how you look
  • Southerners spell the way that they talk. Example: My family and I went to a concert, and on one of the dressing room doors was a sign that read, "SANGERS ONLY." True story... I swear.

When I moved to South Carolina, I figured out that there are words in the south that do not exist in other parts of the country. Study the following examples carefully:

  • Yunt'too- We all's going to the mall to git sum grub. Yunt'too too?
  • Used't'could- "Kin you dance?" "No, but ay used't'could dance real good."
  • Y'all people- Y'all people jest don't git it, do yoo?
  • Whilyoosup- Whilyoosup, would yoo pleez git me the remote over thur?
  • Over yonder- Yeeah, they used to live in that house over yonder.
  • Buggy- A shopping cart (We wud've gotten them there grossries, but someone done stole ar buggy.)
  • A'ight- "Hey Bobby, will you cum har an hep me with this dang transmission?" "A'ight, be right thur."
  • Thur- An' over thur, we have one of the county's many jails... (I'm still figuring out how they abbreviate "Thursday" down here...)
  • Ain'tcha- Well, you're just the cutest leetle thang, now ain'tcha?

You might be a redneck if...

  • You cut your grass and find a car
  • You use Febreeze as deodorant
  • You say any of the words above

******************************************

Well, that's all. For "ya'll people" who live in the south, enjoy!

ok, well...I just wanted to make sure. It's not like I'm mad or anything.

What's wrong with you lately? I'm worried about you...

AltlantaShorty9919 said...

That's all I need to know. I don't want to talk about it, and if you care, don't push me.

Going to bed, me
