Thursday Humor Paper . . . . . . . [:)] <br /> <br /> <br />Southernisms <br /> <br />1. Only a true Southerner knows the difference between a hissie fit and a conniption and that you don't "HAVE" them, -- you "PITCH" them. <br /> <br />2. Only a true Southerner knows how much any fish, collard greens, turnip greens, peas, beans, etc. make up "a mess" (as in "a mess" of greens). <br /> <br />3. Only a true Southerner can show or point out to you the general direction of "yonder." <br /> <br />4. Only a true Southerner knows exactly how long "directly" is - as in: "Going to town, be back directly. (generally pronounced dreckly) <br /> <br />5. All true Southerners, even babies, know that "Gimme some sugar" is not a request for the white, granular sweet substance that sits in a pretty little bowl on the middle of the table. <br /> <br />6. All true Southerners know exactly when "by and by" is. They might not use the term, but they know the concept well. <br /> <br />7. Only a true Southerner knows instinctively that the best gesture of solace for a neighbor who's got trouble is a plate of hot fried chicken and a big bowl of cold potato salad. (If the neighbor's trouble is a real crisis, they also know to add a large banana puddin') <br /> <br />8. Only true Southerners grow up knowing the difference between "right near" and "a right far (pronounced "fur")piece." They also know that "just down the road" can be 1 mile or 20. <br /> <br />9. No true Southerner would ever assume that the car with the flashing turn signal is actually going to make a turn. <br /> <br /> <br />Hey I can relate to these. <br /> <br />They forgot the B B Q baked beans. And Southern Fried Catfish is "to die for". <br /> <br />And one last "item", any of you Yankees ever deep fried a biscuit or roll?
