when you ask for a carbonated drink you always ask for a "Coke"
the nice waitress will then say " OK honey, what kind"
then you can say Co-Cola or Sprite or which ever carbonated drink you prefer.

Real southeners though ask for an RC and a moonpie

fricking deer only have about 7 lbs on the dogs chasing them

Don’t forget Look a there

Oh and for goodness sakes, learn to eat grits and love em.

Oh just so you know. Dawgvet said when the waitress says what kind HONEY, she’s not coming on to you. She calls everybody honey and her boyfriend Bo, is probably out back skinning a buck.

And if you are not careful you can get a girl's tin roof rusted (pregnant}

That's a pretty good summary. I'd add yonder to the list. I've always said "over yonder ways" when someone asked for directions to somewhere within spittin' distance.

And the thing you use in a grocery store to put your groceries in is a buggy.

Oh..and now I'm craving some B-52s music.

I might be crazy but I ain't dumb, this is Crazy Cooter.

Possum on a gum bush Cooter, you seen Daisy?

Maybe I have and maybe I haven't.

Shoot fire Cooter, just want to make sure I'm on time for supper at Uncle Jessie's.

Don't forget these words of advice from the great Dolly Parton.

"You got to put some pride in your stride, get a little talk in your walk."

When you can carry on your side of a thirty minute conversation saying only "yep" and assorted grunts then you will finally be ready.

If you are going more high class Southern try to work in a "I do declare" every now and then.
