Right, just dodge the point. Seriously, if there's the claim "oh there's assholes everywhere" then southern hospitality doesn't exist. It's only a title for them to claim that they're morally superior to northerners which is obviously not the case because you don't preach how nice and awesome you are when you do something nice for someone. You just fucking do it.
The south will rise again! South wants secession.

I didn't dodge the point. I already made my point once. I'll do it again, this time i'll drag it out a bit for you. There are shitty people everywhere you look, including the south. The people who were instilled with a sense of common decency and act upon those morals are harder to find. Those who have it here in the south call it Southern Hospitality. It's just our way of calling what everyone else would call being nice. And no, not everyone is like that here. There's plenty of rude ass fucks here. And its with great pride that we KILL THEM with kindness, until they prove themselves to be lost causes to society and a burden upon the human race. There's plenty of them here too. Those people are then ignored unless they have a real problem in which they can still call upon their neighbors for help and those with "southern hospitality" will still help. I'd say there's more nice peole than rude people here, at least in my area.

so it's true that northerners eat their young? And fly about on the wings of demons? That's about as much sense as your making right now. It has nothing to do with "making us look better", its just a southern thing. Obviously your bias to the subject has stone walled any attempt i can make to try and get that through to you. Have a good day.

No no this is only half true. The whole eating our young is pretty obsolete now, but we still fly around on demons.

Children of the south! Be not afraid and behold all the glorious spledor of the northern metal. For they soar upon the metal wings of demon days of old! Yay and verily they crossed the wilderness of southern valley to reach the northern plains of doom where booz flows from the hills as does the blood in their metalic veins. For the are METAL AS FUCK!!
I'll secede myself from the south. I'm sick of the stupidity here. -.-

I think if you don't like the results you should revoke your citizenship. You don't get to take your state with you.

I wonder just how many people are going to be stupid enough to actually renounce their citizenship.
So. . . your place or mine?

So, after having read talk about a fucking second civil war on some wingnut forums suspicion grows in me that all this fuming verbiage is just a scaremongering tactic with the message "Ya better compromise and suck up to us or this country will be torn apart".
Détente or divisiveness, it's a sucker bet.

Yeah, a southern thing to claim that you have the trademark in being nice to people. That's basically what you're telling me when you say "It's a southern thing".

I keep hearing of people wanting to move to either the UK, Canada, and in a few cases, Cuba.
I know that the UK doesn't want US scrubs infesting their country, and Cuba is a gigantic step backwards.
And being an asshole is just a trademark for people from New jersey.
To me, it's just a cop-out that has existed since the 1800's.
Then they would feel right at home in Cuba since most would've wanted to take the country backwards anyway :V

Ugh makes me kinda embarrassed to be a Texan. Let me start by saying people actually put secede stickers on their cars. I live in fort worth, right by the stockyards. I mean I seriously doubt it will happen, People can be so ignorant, I say they should deport all those who want to secede XD the whole thing is just ridiculous. As far as Texas's education for an example they cut school buses last year and you have to pay like 200 a child per semester to ride the school bus. Why cut buses? So that they didn't have to cut football. Because Texas just loves high school foot ball. :/

If you don't want people to reply to your comments, just don't post anything and concede with honor like a true southern gentleman.

Alright, time to summarize my essay from a couple weeks ago. lol
In my experience and from what I've been told by friends here who've lived abroad, "Southern Hospitality" is indeed real. I'll drive down the road and a random person will wave, you never get weird looks for saying hi to a stranger as they pass by, and our old church still gives me little gifts despite us not going there for the past 8 months. The culture here is genuinely one of kindness and generosity.
However I believe this hospitality is a result of the church's influence, and the church's influence also results in a high degree of conformity to typical christian values. So although people are unbelievably kind on a personal level, they are politically naive and uncompromising. Catch-22.
