Do you like Yankees?

[VIF]

They do make good fodder for public ridicule.

No, the reference is to people that were raised North of the Mason-Dixon Line or anyone that voluntarily moved there and sympathizes with those people.

Really? I didn't know that... Interesting.

Yankees give me the runs.

There is a big cultural difference as well Stephen. Have you ever heard the term "southern hospitality"? People born and raised in the south tend to be more polite and hospitable and friendly. Yankees tend to have a superior attitude and think just because we speak with a southern drawl, that we are all stupid hillbillies with no shoes or indoor plumbing. Albeit, that is true in some cases, we get stereotyped as ignorant in toto. :thumbsup:

Someone needs to go hang out in the football forum, there's yokels a plenty there.

I personally don't deal well with rednecks, and i'm a borderline hilljack myself.
