Why are yankees so pasty white and ashen ? Is this a vitamin D deficiency or just the rickets ? and also is it true some new york women have hairy backs . A friend of mine says he used to wax his girlfriends back . . i just chalked it up to being slovic or something . or from OHIO . Thanks for sharing and bless yalls heart. im gonna eat a gyro now . i lika da sauce.
They're moving back up north because the people down here are so darned rude and mean. They do NOT like Yankees, make it well known that they do NOT like Yankees, and will NOT let you forget it. Been here since 1978 and would leave yesterday if not that my family is here. IF I could talk my kids into, we would move right back to my little slice of heaven in WNY.
southern people are just as good and educated and serve different food as any other state in the us does.and yes bugs are bad but in ct. they are too!it's the north thats rude southern whites and blacks have respect and hospitality for their neighbors....and you are a very negative person and you talk like your prejudice....your saying elvis was a hillbilly and racist and the judds and reba and carrie,and oprah!my god!sending prayers to you cause you are acting like its still about slavery and civil war.....hope you don't get to fat on gravy and biscuits!!I sure do miss them cause the north only serves greasy bacon and greasy pizza and fat burgers.......and drugs............................................. .........

Just as educated? South Carolina is 49th and Mississippi is 50th for education in the US. NY is in the mid-30's. MA is 1st. So how exactly are they just as educated?
Plenty of people of all colors are very rude to people who aren't southern. Heard it every day while I lived in SC. Still waiting for some of that hospitality to happen.
I don't eat biscuits or gravy. I also don't eat greasy bacon, greasy pizza, or fat burgers. Funny thing. The South has cornered the deep fried market. Fried chicken... Chitterlings... Fried mac & cheese... Fried green tomatoes... Fried pickles (seriously?)... Fried green beans... I think my arteries are hardening just typing this!
The stereotypes being thrown around on this thread are asinine. You can eat anything you want in anyplace in America. You are in control of what you put in your mouth. Pass up the bbq stand in NC or SC and hit the watermelon stand for healthier food. The South has Whole Foods, Trader Joes, etc, you can get plenty of healthy food there. Pass up the cheesesteak in Philly and the garbage plate in Rochester and go to Wegmans.
Want good schools? Move to where schools are good.
I've seen fried Oreos in the Northeast. You can get fried food in Ithaca (a health conscious area) or lots of healthy vegetarian meals. Its your choice: KFC or Moosewood?
The rudeness that all Southerners somehow possess is such nonsense its laughable. Yet in thread after thread on here, you can read how many people from NY comment on how friendly people are down South.

Generally, people are friendly down South, but like any other region, you have those that will talk about you behind your back or display a passive aggressive attitude. So, even that aspect isn't that much different, except in terms of how soon or when it is displayed.
I have said it before and I will say it again, the attitudes that are observed in people one interacts with are often related to the vibes that are put out by the one doing the observing.

This can be anywhere and that is true, but as a person that has been down South and has Southern parents, you do have those that don't want Northerners moving down there for whatever reason. I think the cities are generally different than the smaller towns in that regard, but it does happen. It isn't something that is blatant though.

That's coming from someone who hates hot weather and holds all Southerners in contempt.
Gee golly its hard to believe the locals didn't take to her. If I was a southerner and I seem her coming I'd have the words "go home" ready from 100 feet.
Of coarse I hate NY weather and hold all the people in contempt but I'm local.

I blew another 6-8 inches of wet heavy Spring off my driveway this morning.
The reason nobody knows anybody here is the weather has us locked inside most of the year.
And even if you go from your heated house to heated car and drive 3 hours to Gore to freeze for afew hours sking it still doesn't help you know the folks next door.
I've lived in this house for 11 years and I don't know a single person within a mile. Now I'm kinda a introvert but in a normal state you'd find at least an extrovert or two.
