To suggest everyone with that accent is ignorant is in fact, ignorant.
I never said that

You sure as hell implied it when you said that most people with a southern accent are toothless rednecks.

There is a difference between saying something and implying something which i never did, if so not on purpose.

This is a highly typical move and tactic here on the boards. Never say something directly and shirk all responsibility when you're rightfully held tot he fire.

As NSW said, you may not have said those exact words, but you might as well have, and we're not really arguing words are we? The spirit of the comment is identical and as such, I refer back to my original post on the matter.

So you'd agree you know nothing about southern culture?

And that you're perpetuating a stereotype that by definition of being a stereotype is largely invalid?

I mean I just can't see where you're going to try to make your claim valid but admitting fault?

I get the impression that Texans see themselves as separate from the rest of the states. Like they think they're big enough to be a country in their own right.
I've no idea where I got this impression from btw.


you are exactly right,.......and, might i add, we still have the option to suceed from the union should we see fit,......its in the contract

Ignoring this whole Texas/Southern accent argument completely (sorry guys, you're all flyover states to me! )...

Last time I was in NY someone did place my California accent, and a few years ago when I was in the UK a ****ing homeless guy was even making fun of it! It's funny, I've never really thought of us Californians as having our own accents. I mean, I do say "dude", "like", and "totally" more than I probably should (well, not that much), but other than those words I don't really think of myself as speaking in a certain way. Maybe we just speak American English like normal people and it's the rest of the country that's weird?
