It helps to be from the South to understand what a put down that really is.

Occasionally it’s a put down. But most of the time, it’s meant sincerely.
I say “bless her/his/its heart” regarding kids, animals, and nice adults, LOL.

Yeah, it helps to have the inside dope to know what's being said.
Marines say "Semper Fi" to each other as a sign of respect. But back in WWII it was "Semper Fi Mac" and had a whooole different meaning.

I spent many years in the south.
I now live in Maine.
I stopped using the phrase because it’s no fun if they don’t know you’re insulting them.

I want to ensure that I have the context correct. Here is the background. The new Premier of Ontario, Kathleen Wynne, who is a lesbian, is planning to introduce curriculum in Ontario schools which would have
students learning about gender identity in grade 3 and anal intercourse in grade 7.Would it be the correct and genteel Southern way to then say, Well, bless her heart! Premier Wynne is introducing a new, perverted education curriculum to public schools in Ontario.?
If so, I'll have to remember this for future meetings with liberals that I may have. Actually, this reminds me of the 'Church Lady' character on the old SNL, "Isn't that special!"
