There's no such thing as a "line cut." This story was made up out of whole cloth just to make fun of southerners.

Snopes has the details.

Still it is pretty darn funny.

Even if it is an urban legend it has enough truth to it to make it really funny. As a southerner who once pronounced all one syllable words as two syllables and who has now lived from NJ to MN and many states in between, I have been just as misunderstood and it can take a while to unravel the translation.

I asked one new friend, "Where do you bank?" and she replied, "Bike?" That was a pretty funny conversation before we figured it out.

As a southerner, I don't mind the made up story as an excuse to get these pictures out. The expression on the cat's face is pretty funny.

But thanks for the info... I always learn something here.
