Amen. They call that "bustin' a sag'. It is disgusting. I hired young man who after about a week, started wearing his pants down so low they defied gravity. I'd walk out in the plant, see him bustin' a sag and loud enough for all to hear, I'd say, "Hey man, your underwear's showing. My other men would crack up and the kid would pull up his pants. He worked for about four weeks before voluntarily quitting.

Feeling left out eh...? lol

[Eala]

Ewww.... sugar and syrup on grits is an abomination.

Which is why we don't have grits very often. I can't stand to see that done to them...

[SouthernFreebird]

So, this is not a problem only in the north!

Agreed, but at least we'll tell them how retarded they look. LOL

[Camachee]

I think this is for you. :0)

[TheBigB]

A-men! Too many of those screwballs down here with their pants down around their ankles.

[XRdsRev]

Not really. I'm just pointing out how innaccurate the post is. Where I come from, ignorance is not bliss.

Have a good one.

[Lee'sGhost]

You left out the "or we'll kick your ass" part.

Deer season ends Saturday, hubby's takin' me crappie fishing Sunday.

If he hasn't told you yet, crappie hit VERY light on a baited hook. They might even hit from below on bait so that the only way you know you got a bite is that your line suddenly goes slack. The best way to fish for crappie is to keep the rod butt in your hand and feel for a strike - and you won't feel much. Set the hook if you feel any sort of tug at all or if the line goes slack.

For me? You shouldn't have...

Thanks! We are in rural Missouri, about 20 miles from 65 Highway and can definitely relate to this, as we moved here from Houston, TX. I've printed it out to use in the newsletter where I work. They'll love it.

We have a name for those little 13-inch trout you fish for - bait.

Hey! That's a waste of the best tasting fish out there!!!!!!

[SouthernFreebird]

Where you come from fun is not just fun either, huh.

You just couldn't accept the tone of this thread for what it was without showing us your superior intelligence in figuring out that the email was wrongly about 'just Southerners'. Poo on you

7. Pull your pants up. You look like an idiot. Can I get an amen.

And the hat brim goes in front to protect one's eyes from excess sun or precipitation. It is not a rain guage or a spoiler for your head.

7. Pull your pants up. You look like an idiot.

Classic.

You're sweet, but I'll be shootin' a Matthews.

Just joshin' you. Both my husband and I hunt and fish nearly every weekend. Crappie are biting at night right now, so we're considering hitting the lake Saturday night and staying until we get our limit (30 each).

I like sugar with my buttered grits. YUCK!!!!

Agh! One downside of a Yankee wife is that she won't eat grits without maple syrup. Calls it her "Mason-Dixon" breakfast.
I call it a waste of good grits (which aren't served by many restaurants in Seattle).

I have a friend from the Army whose favorite sayin' was, "Grits ain't groceries, Grits is people." (Stupid yankee!) He is from Illinois, poor soul!

You are aware, aren't you, that the Mason-Dixon line is that linguistic divide between "yoose guys" and "Y'all".

Welcome to the real world. You can't smack a Yankee and not expect him to smack back.

Actually it is all in good fun though. I don't have anything against the South and actually spent a good portion of my childhood in Georgia. But let's be honest...if someone posted a moronic "10 Reasons Why Yankeedom is Better", you'd darn well wouldn't find it so funny or accurate and you'd certainly make a post justifiably defending your Southern homeland.

So here's a "hypocritical poo" on you too.

[Tahoe3002]

Grits?

I saw this on a bumper sticker in Alabama:

"Eat more G.R.I.T.S.

[Johnny_Cipher]

I'm used to fishing for brookies and bass up here, and they darned near pull the rod out of your hand when they hit. Every time I'm down in Georgia to see my family they take me crappie fishing, and I have to "reset" my entire routine in order to catch anything. Crappie are sure good eating though - it just takes a delicate touch to detect a hit then set the hook without pulling it right out of their mouth.

Good luck and I hope you snag your limit!
