LOL! You forgot- raise taxes so everything can be like it was “at home.” Complain incessantly about how much better everything was where they came from. Whine about how slow Southerners move/ get things done. Make fun of our inherent
politeness while they spout curse words in regular conversation that none of us would use worst case scenario.
There are a few nice yankees but they are few and far between and tend to come from more rural areas of the north, not the cities. Complain about the heat and insects and the fact that their favorite plant won’t live here because of the heat and insects. As Tracy Ulman says- GO HOME!

Hey - and do you know who I was basing all this on? My mother. Yes! She moved south (forced by her health) when I was about 7, and never shut up until she died last month as an unrepentant democrat. One thing she never stopped making fun of was southern food - which of course I love. I never was able to do much with grits though - I’m not against them, I am more bewildered. But turnip greens and corn bread - now THAT’s different!
