Yeah, Lancaster is like 45 mins from me. I was just thinking about southern/mountain dialect. I was at Applebees in Asheville and the server asked my mom if she wanted Izz. We were sitting there like what the hell, she meant Ice. Here are some common southern things I was thinking off the top of my head.
