25 Ways To Annoy A
Yankee
Take your own sweet time when doing ANYTHING.
Pronounce all one-syllable words with two.
When giving directions, finish with "It's right down
yonder on the left ."
Talk R-E-A-L slow, and ask them to speak slower so you
can understand
what they're saying.
When they talk about how great it is up north
tell
them
"Delta's
|
Talk loudly and often about SEC football or ACC
basketball
Refer to every soft drink as a Coke
every
motorcycle as a "Honder,"
Always order sweet tea and/or grits.
When
they don't have it, raise a rucus.
Offer to send them a bottle of fresh air.
Insist on being addressed by your first AND middle names
Frequently
bring up the "War of Northern Aggression" in
conversation. If anyone ever says the words "Civil
War,"
always interject that "there was
nothing civil about it."
Address all males as "son" and all females as
"little lady."
Correct their pronunciation of certain words.
For
example: "It's "pee-can."
Put
Tabasco on everything.
For New
York Yankees: Act as if the whole state of New York is
New York City. In other words, if they say, "Yo, I'm
from upstate New Yoik!,"
say
"Well, I'll be, my wife has always wanted to see a
Broadway show!"
When
invited to dinner, offer to bring dessert. Show up with a
box of
Moon Pies. . .Banana ones.
Name all of your children "Bubba."
Use the word "reckon" in a sentence.
"Mash"
buttons. "Cut off" lights .
"Carry"
the kids to school
"Fetch"
something.
Never
simply "do" something. Always be "fixin to
do"
something.
Tell
them you don't have an accent; they do.
Be sure
to include "yes/no ma'am/sir" in all
conversations.
Only use
landmarks &
ramble on when giving directions.
"Now
go down Jeff Davis Highway and turn
left at where the Chevron station used to be. I think
they turned it into an Amoco.
Or maybe
a BP. Anyway, turn right there. . ." ..."You
said left"
"Did
I? Well, turn left there & follow it until you see a
big fish on
your left.
I
remember when that fishused to be on the other side of town. .
."
Ask them
if its still snowing up North.
Then
tell'em you went driving around in your convertible this
weekend.
Call 'em
a Yankee ;) Works ever time!
