leave your banjo at home, but if you have to bring it never play "dueling banjos" and dont ask anyone to " squeal like a pig".

Crappie is pronounced croppie, not crappy. We don't have brim or bream or shellcrackers, they are bluegills and sunfish. crawfish is pronounced crayfish, We also don't have bugs or snakes that will kill you where you lie, we have people for that. Depending on your travels, pop, soda, and coke all mean the same thing except when you stop at Taco Bell or Culvers and they ask "Are Pepsi products ok?" Pizza is also known as pie. Spaghetti sauce is called gravy. If you make it to any of the major cities and eat the food, you may never find your way back home. 

 

Not so.  Crappie is pronounced Calico Bass.

 

It's all in the rules of grammar.  If a word ends in "r", the r is silent.  Grammar for example would be pronounced like one of your parents' mother, grammuh.  Four, for and fore are pronounced to rhyme with paw.  Sometimes, the "r" is silent when it's near the end of a word.  Take harp for example.  It's pronounced hop.

 

Heck, the "r" can be near the middle of the word.  Scarlett is pronounced scollet, or maybe scahlett.  Over, can become eggs, as in ova. 

 

Up here, y'all is a type of sailboat, as in yawl.  It's a boat with two masts.  The forward or main mast and a smaller "mizzenmast" to the rear.  In a yawl, the mizzenmast is behind the rudderpost.  If the mizzenmast is forward of the rudderpost, it's no longer a yawl.  It's a ketch, not to be confused with a catch.

 

Driving in traffic is much more interesting up here.  Down south, where two or more lanes merge into one, folks take turns, meshing like smooth running gears.  Up here, it's a competition, with drivers playing chicken.  Driving a beat up old pickup truck with a snowplow through Boston is like holding four aces while playing poker.  You'll win 99.9 percent of the time.  It works so well, that some will drive with their plow mounted in the middle of summer.

 

It gets even more confusing with food.  A drink made with ice cream, milk and vanilla syrup can be a frappe, except in Fall River, where it is called a cabinet.

focus....so much for the dramatic entrance. I didn't think they sold anything without a tailgate in the south.....and no sir that is not a tailgate on the focus that is a hatch.

I gotta Envoy XL Denali slammed, tinted, on air ride suspension with 20s on it. Its getting 22s or 24s when i get home. Its not really country though.

We got a 64 Impala convertible sitting on blocks at my father in laws. My wife and I are working on restoring it so to speak. Its got 4 HiLo pumps in the trunk. Needs a new engine and some other work done to it. I wanted to have it done in time to take with me. Nothing says East Coast like a Cali G ride. :D

I've been in some bars in rural Wisconsin where you'd fit right in.

I can vouch for that. Just missing a few things. You need a 20 plus year old lifted 4x4. That nothing is left of the rockers and fenders. To top it off. The tires and wheels must cost more then the tuck is worth. You also need about 10-20 empty cheap beer cans in the bed. When I say cheap. I mean like 15-20 bucks for a case cheap. Speaking of cheap beer. At all times. You must have a can of said cheap beer on you at all times. The kicker is it has to be in a can coozie.

 

You also must hate wolfs. The wolf was almost kiiled off here in WI. About 100 years ago. But every one hates them. Even people my age hate them. When most have never seen one. Your robot and death metal must go also. The "good ol boys" Call that the devils music up here. You must acquire a taste for polka and country. There are more country music stations in WI. Then I bet there are in the whole state of TN. No I am not kidding. There are three rock stations I can get. In my neck of the woods. The others are country.

 

Yea I don't fit in to well up here. I like fast cars, loud music, good beer, and ticking off the "good ol boys." The best part is many people. Consider me a redneck. Just a modern redneck.
