[The South] 

The South is a distinct regional area in the United States that carries a wide variety of denotations. Specifically, it consists of the upper and deeper south. The arrangement goes something like this: Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. In short, it is characterized and remembered by its infamous history and position in the Civil War. The South will continously be stereotyped for being the epitomy of drunk hicks and rednecks dancing around a campfire having an overt weeny roast. Nevertheless, The South is an extremely viable region of the United States in terms of economic contributions and retains an irrefutably strong sense of pride.
Don't judge me because of my Southern drawl. The perception you're seeing is that I'm stupid. The reality is that I'm from The South.

The South 

Contrary to the opinion of many northerners, the south is not a place filled with rednecks drinking whiskey, playing banjos, sleeping with our cousins, and beating on black people. In fact, we are actually pretty tolerant, as a whole, of other races and religions (i would like to point out that the biggest riots when they integrated schools were in boston.) We also have a very unique culture including music and literature. A lot of great writers and musicians were from the south, such as B.B. King, William Faulkner, Eudora Welty, and Anne Rice. We also contribute to movies as well, since many great actors such as Morgan Freeman and James Earl Jones hail from here. So biased northerners should get a clue, or maybe read Gone with the Wind, the most beloved work by an American author. It's by a dirty racist southerner, I hear.
If Pennsylvania was so much better than the south, why don't you just pack your bags and go back!

the south 

basically just states in the south of the united states of america. the south is generally a very nice place to live in, with warm weather and friendly folk; the main reasons so many northerners are moving down to the south. What most southerners don't know is that the 'damn yankees' don't make fun of the South much at all, in fact we never really -mention- the south. We don't bring up the Civil War and taunt the South or anything. Some southerners have this idea that all yankee's think that the south is full of hicks, but this is not true. Yankee's like southerners, so you southerners should learn to be tolernat of yankee's and their culture to. we're all one country, after all.
Southerners say "y'all" mostly and Yankee's say "you guys" mostly. This is one of the many differences between the south and north, but something that they can get over and just get along.

We don't really care how you did it up north. If everything is so great up there, then Delta is ready when you are!
