Well y'all...I may be from the South, but I ain't no redneck! I'm more Canadian than anything :)

Canadian? They're even worse! :help:

I still remember the first time I called my fiancee a Yankee. Like 98% of all Canadians, we use the term interchangibly with "American."

Gordon: Goodnight my Yankee friend.

Carly: Yankee? I ain't no Yankee. You're the Yankee!

Gordon: Now how is that even possible?

Carly: Yankees are from the north.

Gordon: So somebody from Seattle would be a Yankee?

Carly: No, not really.

Gordon: Well technically I live farther south in Canada than you do in the US. So that should mean that I'm the southerner and you're the Yankee.

Carly: *click*

Gordon: :lol:

Most of the blue state stuff applies to me, :yes: but please do not EVER refer to me as a yankee!!! I am from the bluest of the blue states, and the very word yankee brings up evil images. :devil: generally us Bostonians live and die with the Red Sox and I am no exception! Just a little FYI, calling anyone from MA a yankee could be dangerous

My fiance has never been called a Yankee by me....he's so not a Yankee :) Just like he's never referred to me as redneck just because I live in the South. :lol:

Now hold on a second there Karen. You're not getting off that easy. Carly was born and raised in West Texas. The reddest of red Texas. The kind of place where Reagan would be considered a left wing commie. I got used to her southern accent being as she's lived in Houston for quite some time now, so it's not that thick. But her sister who still lives out there sounds like Dolly Parton with a mouth full of toffee. I think she says Gordon as a 3 syllable word.

Carly moved from West Texas to Georgia for half a year when she first got out of school.

Gord: So what was Georgia like?

Carly: I couldn't understand a darn thing they said.

Gord: Well if you're fluent in southern drawl and couldn't make heads or tails, how the heck would I survive there?

Carly: I think it went both ways. Lots of people thought I was from Mississippi. :lol:

The moral of the story is that if KarenCee has been in Georgia for longer than 6 months, than I would consider her to be the most right wing, red state, neo-redneck, so far deep in the south that she's in the shallow south, impossible to understand her english person on all of Visa Journey.

The reason her NOA2 is taking so long is because her 14 middle names are overloading the CSC computer system.
