What the cool Southerners wear as tee shirts and sweaters.

If you ain't got no Comfort Colors in your wardrobe, then you are most certainly a Yankee.

Yankee Teen Slang

Teen Slang terms that are popular in the entire United States except for the South.

Salty, Yeet, IMHO, TMI, Swag, Xanny Family, Saturdaze, five dive, and the like are all Yankee Teen Slang terms that we Southern teens think are weird.

Demichiganization

The process where the children of Northern transplants to the South, especially from Michigan, adapt to Southern culture and southern drawl, often to the disgust of their parents.

I regret leaving Ann Arbor for Birmingham, my son has an annoying drawl, eats gross food, wears comfort colors and khaki shorts, and wants to go to Bama instead of Umich; I am worried that demichiganization will affect my younger children as well.
