am I an ignorant/arrogant outsider..growing up in the state of Georgia and the South?..who has a brother named JORdan...questioning the pronunciation of something?
and guess what dotdotdot I have been posting like this long before you showed up...I don't plan on stopping because the resident grump who thinks he knows everything tries a weak attempt at making fun of it.
there is a big difference in having a drawl and speaking "southernese"....and sounding like an uneducated idiot.
Confederate statues and battle flags have nothing to do with seeking the reasoning behind a certain pronunciation...and anybody who tries to link the two is trying too hard.
go back to your Hunger Games threads...

Yes. Exactly.
It's the definition of being an arrogant ignorant outsider to condescend to how people pronounce their own damn family names, counties, towns, etc dot dot dot dot dot dot from 2017 when you aren't even a part of that family, county, town, etc. And have no clue about the history of that pronunciation. Or even a basic understanding of etymology and that all words, every got dammed one of them evolves through time from somewhere continuing as we speak.
This is the yankee busy-body instinct (not limited to only yankees) personified to a T. dot dot dot Your way is right, theirs is wrong. Why? Because you say so, from far away. History heritage truth and tradition be damned. dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot dot so pathetic and gross.
