VERY true!

20. The winter wardrobe you always brought out in September can wait until November.
sooo true. i'm in houston and i was wearing capris just last week. but let me add that when the temp drops to sixty degrees, don't be surprised to see leather jackets.

21. If there is the prediction of the slightest chance of even the most minuscule accumulation of snow, your presence is required at the local grocery store. It does not matter if you need anything from the store, it is just something you're supposed to do.


yep, same for rain. my mom, who's up in dallas which is my hometown, called one day and said "i saw on the news that it's supposed to rain real bad down there. have you been to the store yet. you better hurry before it gets too bad."

22. Satellite dishes are very popular in the South. When you purchase one it is to be positioned directly in front of your trailer. This is logical, bearing in mind that the dish cost considerably more than the trailer and should, therefore, be displayed.


could be true but pleeeease don't think we all live in trailer homes.

27. You can ask a Southerner for directions, but unless you already know the positions of key hills, trees and rocks, you're better off trying to find it yourself.
yep! and will have the nerve to draw you a map of stuff you have no idea how to identify! my dad has that bad.
