One thing I hate about people who aren't from the south, they always assume that southern people are farmers or cowboys or some shit. Like no dude. Just because I'm from Texas doesn't mean I live on a farm and have a heavy accent -.-
As a southerner in the midwest I felt this so hard. My friends have to ask me what I'm saying most of the time. My accent gets stronger the more passionate I am about something.
Not my mom, never heard her say the word once. She did grew up in California until she was 12, but still. My sister doesn't either, and she was born and raised in Texas like me. I say y'all all the time though.
Okay but like in Ohio these things are very common and everyone where i live is very stereotypically southern, and if you ask for tea they don't have any other type other than sweet tea????
Mine points out how we're kin/related to everyone. Of course, that's my mom's mom. I'm my own cousin, so I have to figure out how I'm kin the other way
GoldenCupcake 06 Coke used to be the most common soda to drink "back in the day" lol and the word just passed down to today. With all the new sodas of today, it's confusing to people who don't know what they're talking about
+Kyla Mamber Funny how our accent has been given this worldwide reputation of "racist and stupid" (assuming you have an accent). I like being from Georgia, but I'm not sure it's worth being judged by every person on the planet lol.
Jacob Griffin I know! I'm from Mississippi so it doesn't help at all. Since in history Mississippi was one of the worst places to be if your black during the Civil War. If the facts are wrong blame my teachers. XD
+Kyla Mamber Mississippi? Wow, you've got it worse than me lol. Georgia is probably the easiest-to-defend southern state when it comes to arguments. Can't say the same for Mississippi though.
Averi Watkins I'm from Texas and I personally don't call all soda "Coke," but I still understand what people are talking about if they say it. Basically, whenever someone says "Coke" you say "What kind?" So if they mean all sodas, they can say what they want but if want actual coke then they can say diet or zero or whatever they want. If they say "What kinds of coke do you have?" They probably are talking about all sodas. Then just list them all off and if they want actual coke they can figure it out.
Nah, I just say soda. I only say "Coke" when I actually want a Coca Cola.. And if I'm asking a particular establishment about their drinks I'd say, "do you have Coke or Pepsi products?" and that's only if it's not technically displayed on their menu. Then I'll ask, "what kind of Coke products do you have?" or "what kind of Pepsi products do you have?"..
Man I went to Virginia this last summer and this old couple I was talking to offered me some of their homemade sweet tea... ever since I’ve been a little less happy living out west. Best. Tea. On. Earth.
Wigless millennial I highly suggest that y'all get McDonald's sweet tea when it is made fresh and that is exactly how I like it :). I love my Lipton Ice Tea
Agreed. I ended up taking an old juice bottle, filling it with cold water, pouring some out into a pot to boil, and then putting the rest in the freezer. Then I take 6 black tea bags and boil them for 5 mins. Remove the bags and dissolve just over two cups of sugar. Grab the bottle, pour in the cold water, and then pour it all back into the bottle. A this point it's slightly below room temp and can go into the fridge. Tastes like good southern restaurant quality sweet tea. :)
lol I'm southern, I don't have a truck and I don't like NASCAR, and I don't call carts buggies but Chicken, biscuits, gravy, football, bonfires, sweet tea, and summer evenings are what I live for
+WestPlays um I respectfully disagree(except for Maryland) it's not about technically what part of the country it is. it's about the culture in those states. I can say for a fact that Texas, north Carolina, south Carolina, etc are definitely southern.
+WestPlays also, which state IS the south if all of these aren't? Just Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia? haha I don't think so. have you ever been to the Carolinas??
Abby Barron I included: Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Louisiana, and Arkansas. I have been to the Carolinas, in fact I grew up in Charleston, my dad taught at the citadel. I personally believe, now that I live in Georgia, that the Carolinas are Mid-Atlantic and not truly southern (the Appalachian-western parts of the Carolinas are southern ). I also believe that Texas is south-western, Missouri is mid-western, Florida is northern, WV is Appalachian, Maryland/Virginia are Mid-Atlantic.
+WestPlays alright ok whatever, I don't really agree, but I'm not about to argue about it so whatever. I grew up in the Carolinas as well. they seem pretty southern to me I guess. also, Charleston is a beautiful city.
The struggle be real WHENEVER you pronounce a word with a country/southern slang and ppl start laughing and look at you crazy!!! I know I'm not the only one who struggle with this 🤧
MIN SUGA GENIUS People tell me they know I'm from the south. I have a pretty thick Cajun accent and people from North Louisiana love my accent lol. Which reminds me, I should do a Cajun Christmas Story reading one day. And put it on my TH-cam Channel
I am a Southerner I don't like Nascar I don't really like sports I don't drive a pickup I don't listen to country music But i fucking love chicken n biscuits like who doesn't
Legend Cobra X i got nothing against yanks but lets be real there are some cool one buts the grace and charm from a southern person will never be found in a yank and that is fine but I still rather stick with my Texans and Southern folk
I have to say in middle school in 8th or 7th grade in my choirs class because it was fun to say the teacher and me look at them weird I'm in 10th grade
Kaydence Demers i'm from the middle east, I've never been to the US or anywhere near it, and I still know what bonfires are because of American movies! You're telling me actual Americans don't know???
Here in the UK on Guy Faulks night aka Bonfire night we have a massive bonfire with a stuffed 'Guy' on top...Remember, remember the 5th of November. I'm with the Southerners on this. We do however say 'pop' or 'fizzy drinks'.
spilled.tea. When people outside the “South” say y’all for the most part it has nothing to do with imitating “southerners.” It is a word that serves a grammatical purpose. Because it’s believed first use in the United States was in the southeastern region, of course it will be more prominently used in the surrounding area, and was, to a large extent, spread by African Americans who moved north after the civil war. But because the term didn’t completely originate in the south, it likely developed independently in other parts of the country. The word y’all is highly believed to originate from the Scottish-Irish “ye aw” as brought to the US by immigrants. Though the largest populations eventually became in Texas and North Carolina, there were also large groups of Scottish-Irish living Lin California, Ohio, Montana, etc... but the first settlements were largely in Northern States like Maine and New Hampshire, so the term could have easily developed on its own in the Northern US, making it not specifically the diffusion of “southern culture.” Many people in northern rural areas (typically mid and north west) use the word in the same everyday context that people in more southern areas do. It is completely understandable to be annoyed when people use the term in reference to you being from the south (or the south in general), but when they use the word normally, it’s generally because, though not nearly as prominently, it is a part of THEIR culture that happened to develop similarly to yours, and not them taking/appropriating the southern lifestyle in any way.
B Styer also some northerners pronounce it wrong. One time my friend went on vacation and said y’all and a bunch of ppl where like,”OMG! Say it again!” So I think they mean some northerners pronounce it incorrectly.
Oh my god I was stupid enough to have a pulled pork sandwich in New York City when I am from the Memphis area and oh my god I could taste all the ketchup they put in there. It was bad. So yes, every northerner HAS to try real southern bbq
William J. Vaughn hope you didn’t have to deal with condescending bigots, who thought just cause they weren’t Southern, they were morally superior or whatever they think themselves as nowadays. 😒
Everyone knows what a bonfire is. The guy in the video knew that it was burning stuff. I have never heard of anyone socializing around a bonfire. That is what is weird.
+Natanya T Yeah. It is a huge social event. Barbecue, beer, music, and usually about 20-40 people if is a good one. and we do them for ALLLL kinds of occasions. They are a good addition at the end of any given holiday, birthday, wedding, party, job promotion, sporting event.... you name it. and the beer. beer is important. but you also have mountain dew for the youngins
It's a sport(?) of mostly dudes that race very fast fast and powerful cars. They normally go about 200 mph and are super loud. They only race on oval tracks so the just go in a circle for hundreds of laps. It originated in North Carolina during the Prohibition era and people up in the mountains would make moonshine (illegal alcohol) and race from cops in their cars. The idea came from that and then it became popular to watch. It's popular in the south and you can find lots of NASCAR tracks throughout southern states. My dad loves NASCAR so I grew up seeing it on the TV every Sunday afternoon. It's not my fav but some people really dig it
ha I'm from southern Louisiana doesn't get more southern then me. but it's different because of da cajuns and new orleans. we have the best food down here though
Msminnie no. Tea was originally meant to be served hot. How else do you think it's brewed? While it's more COMMON for Southerners to drink sweet iced tea (which is delicious), tea was originally meant to be HOT. I suggest you do some research first. If it's meant to be sweet and cold TO YOU, that's fine. But don't say that someone is wrong because you do things differently.
Tacomas and Rangers. Small trucks ftw. The only trucks that are literally battle proven. Just ask any Somali warlord, Afgan militiaman, clandestine CIA field agent, or US special Forces operator. They go places that a lifted street queen 1500 or F250 couldn't even dream of :D
Damien Green I think the East coast is a lot more "Canadian" than the west coast. I've heard people from Ontario say "eh" and it was I had heard anyone say something so stereotypically Canadian
Bad Misty I'm from Texas and I agree with everything you said, except I grew up calling a shopping cart a 'buggy'. I think it's probably different for everyone.
I was telling someone who came from California about lightening bugs. But I couldn't remember what they were called, so I just kept saying 'it's a bug, whose butt lights up." She never did figure out what I was trying to say...
lol... I'm from California, but my dad's from Florida, so I'm basically southern without the accent (which is unfortunate 'cause I love accents, but I only have my boring, normal American Dialect for an accent), I couldn't understand what lightening bugs (or fireflies) were (even though I knew what they're called) until we went to 'Bama and I saw them for the first time.
Monica H Lol im from the netherlands and it rains here all the time. People go to the beach immediatly when its just 20degrees Celsius. i believe thats 60 in farenheit
dude person I'm from Connecticut which is as far from the South as you can get and yeah it's kind of interesting that debate of soda, pop and coke all over the country. Just goes to show how we're all American but we're still unique in our own little geographic way. Up here we say soda.
I'm from Ky and it's kinda country but I agree with you that country music sucks. Old country is REAL country. Country nowadays is just pop with a guitar and a southern accent.
people just think us southerners? are plain stupid.my teacher had a friend from Cali who thought us Tennesseans didn't wear shoes,and apparently "yall" isn't a word
Bless your heart Myeesha and bless all y'all but that should be 'we Southerners' and 'we Tennesseans'. Maybe that's why they think that. Sorry but that was pitched high, outside and it jes' hung out there abeggin' to be hit. I had to swing fer the nickle bleachers.
I'm glad about the stereotypes at the end. People can be so dumb when it comes to the south I've literally had people ask me if I had ever met a black person before and how many black people I had working for me growing up I'll never get that, do you think time just stopped in the south after the civil war and NOTHING HAS CHANGED?
The south (well I can only speak for Texas) is so very racially mixed and welcomed! Everyone gets along, there are so many interracial couples and multiracial kids, most of us are half something if not more (I'm biracial myself). Even in the bad neighborhoods you see a mix of races walking around, hanging out, dating, ect. The racist stereotype is the one I hate the most because it is so far from the truth. (P.S I see yo SPG icon!)
...I've never had anyone ask me if I've met a black person before. Wtf. If they actually looked at the demographics of most states down here they'd realize how ridiculous that question was. I'm from Texas and its one of the biggest "melting pots" in the US (seriously, look it up). I currently live in Louisiana and the town I live in is basically 50/50 black and white (obviously those aren't exact numbers because there are other races here). If anything I think its more of a legitimate question to ask that of Northerners and those in the Midwest as the number of black people is wayyyyy smaller than down here. Also as far as racism, I think there is probably a higher number of radical or outspoken racists in the South but the level of racism in general is low. When you are living in a place where half the population (or in some parts of Texas, the actual majority) is non-white you interact with them all the time and realize they are normal people too. That's what makes me roll my eyes so hard at that stereotype of Southerners (or obviously, specifically white southerners). People wouldn't be asking a hispanic or black person those same questions even though they were raised next door to me and experienced the same kind of upbringing...
I am literally the complete opposite the guy i can relate to because ur proably from a different part of the south where u dont drink beer and watch football and nascar and make a bonfire almost anytime possible. It may seem like a stereotype but its very very true
The first guy wanted to watch the Duke game, but that seems more stereotypical for a black guy to want to watch basketball. Southerns are more into college football.
i do too but i mean how people simplify it (duh). Like, if someone wanted to say "i bought liters of coca cola, pepsi, mountain dew, crush and faint" instead people would say "pop" or "soda" instead of labeling all of them.
I grew up hearing my parents and grandparents use the actual name like, "I got a 12 pack of Sprite" or "I got a liter of Pepsi" or "Can you get me a Mr. Pibb from the sandwich shop?" I never really got the simplifications because most people that I know or hang around use the actual name (talking about people from various backgrounds). :-)
We say both. Coke refers to Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Dr. Pepper... Soda is usually referred to as everything else... but, even then it can be a mix bag of either or what comes to mind and is said automatically in the moment really.
Oh yeah, I live in Texas but I travel a lot so a ton of people asked me that when I was in another state, sometimes I wanna just make up an extremely stereotypical backstory just to mess with people instead of saying that i live in a small town south of San Antonio, I don't own a horse or live on a ranch, and my only pet is a turtle. I also very rarely wear boots. P.S. Tex-mex is literally the best food on the planet
I lived in NC for 9 1/2 years then moved to Baltimore, Maryland. Since then I've been starving for some southern cooking. Like, I want my bbq, my bojangles, and my freaking Zaxbys.
+Mariah sosweet Noooo, you forgot about Chick-fil-A. I'm from outside of Detroit but lived out by Raleigh from 06 til 2011. Me and my girlfriend are moving back anytime now. Been lettin her know about Chick-fil-A. Cant wait. Did you have to learn how to hear certain words and learn how to reply to people with certain words in order to be understood? I had that problem at work for months and months
Bunny Bubbas' Dream Wow no Chick-fil-A thats pretty heartbreaking. Well here they don't have many Chick-fil-A's either but, they have Hip Hop Chicken everywhere (its good but not like bojangles).Also, I most definitely had that problem .They thought I was from another country lol but, it was a little easier understanding them because majority of my family from here. Oh I hope you guys have a safe travel back 😊

+IKeepBadCompany I don't see why being American and living in America is bad. You have a serious case of "stereotypeoisis": and one of the main symptoms of this is thinking all that stuff is true. Like DAM media4.giphy.com/media/NKBc1zpXB47Xa/200w.gif

You forgot grits!!! I LOVE grits and the North and missing out! Also where I live everyone always eats corn and if you even need something you just have to ask someone and they will help you. Southern hospitality is the best.
I was born and raised in Texas, I'm still in Texas. I don't like nascar, I don't like country music, and in not a big fan of trucks. I didn't know I had an accent until my friend from Portland told me I did. My grandma called sodas coke and called shopping carts buggies, and my high school and all my friends have bonfires.
Jazz Brown , hey Johnson City, i live in Mountain City Tn. When we go to Johnson City we are going to the big city. As a Tennessee hillbilly all i got to say is.... Shee-ut far, ill tell yuins what, yuins may think im amite sigogglin but im really all right. Come and see us sometime i will light a shuck fer ya.
Here in Alabama we mostly eat: sweet tea, cornbread, taters(potatoes for the uneducated folk) either barbecue/ribs or chicken, and a lot of vegetables (mustard/collard greens, peas, okra, corn, turnips)
Umm.... yeah.. Please stop, you're not helping our case and you're kind of making all the southerners look really stupid and stereotypical, unless this is just a northerner making fun, then in that case, ha..haha.haha..ha... shut up
Steve gave no jobs Yes, when you give someone information they did not have prior to said giving, then you could classify it as educating. So in a since, those that did not know what the slang term "tators" meant, were uneducated on that particular term. Also, you can have an IQ above 5 and use slang words, or words one might compare to someone of lower education. Go troll somewhere else.
im a southerner and i still don't understand ppl with super thick southern accents lol but i understand with the buggies and the pop and whatnot. like, imma call a shopping cart a buggie cause thats what it is. and if you have a buscuit sandwich with chicken in it imma call it a chicken buscuit
Lol im from houston and we dont talk with the "southern" accent either but ive never called a shopping cart a buggy but at least I ssy pe-cON instead of pecAn1
Lizzy m oh when i say i dont understand ppl wth a southern accent everyone where i live has one im an anomaly or something cause i don't really have one tho i do use specific southern dialect at times. and also i thought pronouncing pecan with emphasis on the "con" part was a northerner thing? maybe im confused.
Don't listen to comments listen to good country music like Blake Shelton, Keith Urban, Luke Bryan's older stuff, All of Johnny Cash's music, some George Strait, and Randy Travis.
Luis Villalobos or to be accurate Roots , Blues, Jazz, and Country music rather than mainstream popular country which is not representative of the South. Also, read any genre of literature by southern writers. The nuances creep in.
As a Northerner who grew up on British and 1900-30 American literature, I can say that you southerners don't have a monopoly on slang problems. I have definitely used British words for things because I basically got 90% of my vocabulary from Harry Potter.
I am a southerner I drive a honda I listen to metal I don't like sports but rather gaming I don't go mudding I can't play the banjo I don't own a confederate flag . . . . . . I love sweet tea I love fried chicken I own guns I like fishing I have an accent I'd rather go to a bonfire than a club Fried frog legs are bae I say yall I say buggy
+LadySniperSwagg that is what northerners say... we typically say what kind of coke do you have meaning sodas. She was translating what she meant by what coke she wanted. You don't see to be from the south or just didn't have any comprehension skills.
+LadySniperSwagg you said we don't say pop and you are right. we say coke. in the context of the video she asked what kind of cokes do they have coke=pop so the waiter was confused so she clarified by saying pop. your comment about southerners not saying pop is true but also not needed.
I live in Louisisana. When my family or friends want to go out they end up asking me what kind of coke do you want. I know they mean what soda in general but they just say coke. A lot of people in Louisiana say it like that. and you don't get more southern than that.
Deadwarrior000 I didn't ask about Louisiana. It doesn't make up the whole south. I would guess 80% of the south just calls it soda and I bet 80% of the north does too. Also, you can get more south than Louisiana.
@@kitsterr It's just plain sweet tea lol. You could search it up if that still doesn't make much sense. Everyone here drinks it all the time, and it basically replaces water for most people.
So many people say that accents are strengthened when they have high emotions. Like when you’re really angry, really happy, sad, etc etc. And for me that’s so damn true. Born and raised Tennessean, but my accent is so dialed down in casual conversations. But when I yell or get angry or start crying, yep can tell I was raised in the true southern environment
One thing I hate about people who aren't from the south, they always assume that southern people are farmers or cowboys or some shit. Like no dude. Just because I'm from Texas doesn't mean I live on a farm and have a heavy accent -.-
Exactly
Same, but I'm from Florida.

+WestPlays um I respectfully disagree(except for Maryland) it's not about technically what part of the country it is. it's about the culture in those states. I can say for a fact that Texas, north Carolina, south Carolina, etc are definitely southern.
+WestPlays also, which state IS the south if all of these aren't? Just Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia? haha I don't think so. have you ever been to the Carolinas??
Abby Barron I included: Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Louisiana, and Arkansas. I have been to the Carolinas, in fact I grew up in Charleston, my dad taught at the citadel. I personally believe, now that I live in Georgia, that the Carolinas are Mid-Atlantic and not truly southern (the Appalachian-western parts of the Carolinas are southern ). I also believe that Texas is south-western, Missouri is mid-western, Florida is northern, WV is Appalachian, Maryland/Virginia are Mid-Atlantic.
+WestPlays alright ok whatever, I don't really agree, but I'm not about to argue about it so whatever. I grew up in the Carolinas as well. they seem pretty southern to me I guess. also, Charleston is a beautiful city.
The struggle be real WHENEVER you pronounce a word with a country/southern slang and ppl start laughing and look at you crazy!!! I know I'm not the only one who struggle with this 🤧
MIN SUGA GENIUS People tell me they know I'm from the south. I have a pretty thick Cajun accent and people from North Louisiana love my accent lol. Which reminds me, I should do a Cajun Christmas Story reading one day. And put it on my TH-cam Channel
Mani Kim I know people think they know how to say everything “correctly.” My way is not wrong is just my way of saying something.

I had bonfires all the time when I was little.
Here in the UK on Guy Faulks night aka Bonfire night we have a massive bonfire with a stuffed 'Guy' on top...Remember, remember the 5th of November. I'm with the Southerners on this.
We do however say 'pop' or 'fizzy drinks'.
I'm southern (but I live up North) and I hate when Northerners say y'all, I feel bad but I get so annoyed
spilled.tea. When people outside the “South” say y’all for the most part it has nothing to do with imitating “southerners.” It is a word that serves a grammatical purpose. Because it’s believed first use in the United States was in the southeastern region, of course it will be more prominently used in the surrounding area, and was, to a large extent, spread by African Americans who moved north after the civil war. But because the term didn’t completely originate in the south, it likely developed independently in other parts of the country. The word y’all is highly believed to originate from the Scottish-Irish “ye aw” as brought to the US by immigrants. Though the largest populations eventually became in Texas and North Carolina, there were also large groups of Scottish-Irish living Lin California, Ohio, Montana, etc... but the first settlements were largely in Northern States like Maine and New Hampshire, so the term could have easily developed on its own in the Northern US, making it not specifically the diffusion of “southern culture.” Many people in northern rural areas (typically mid and north west) use the word in the same everyday context that people in more southern areas do. It is completely understandable to be annoyed when people use the term in reference to you being from the south (or the south in general), but when they use the word normally, it’s generally because, though not nearly as prominently, it is a part of THEIR culture that happened to develop similarly to yours, and not them taking/appropriating the southern lifestyle in any way.
SAME it sounds so wrong 😂😂
B Styer
That sounds like a load of BS. It's nothing more than southerners saying you all as one word. No need to rewrite history.
B Styer also some northerners pronounce it wrong. One time my friend went on vacation and said y’all and a bunch of ppl where like,”OMG! Say it again!” So I think they mean some northerners pronounce it incorrectly.
spilled.tea. I’ve naturally said y’all my whole life... nothing wrong with it. I’m Italian, Irish, Canadian
People make fun of my accent way to much it sucks.

I am from Connecticut and I have never heard of someone not knowing what a bonfire is.
City people don't
Me too and I'm in Minnesota
Everyone knows what a bonfire is. The guy in the video knew that it was burning stuff. I have never heard of anyone socializing around a bonfire. That is what is weird.
+Natanya T In the south, I have grown up around bonfires just for socialization. All we had to do was find a few logs
+Natanya T Yeah. It is a huge social event. Barbecue, beer, music, and usually about 20-40 people if is a good one.
and we do them for ALLLL kinds of occasions.
They are a good addition at the end of any given holiday, birthday, wedding, party, job promotion, sporting event.... you name it.
and the beer.
beer is important.
but you also have mountain dew for the youngins
"Fast cars. Women. Beer." NASCAR in a nutshell.
TheDisguise what is a NASCAR?
It's a sport(?) of mostly dudes that race very fast fast and powerful cars. They normally go about 200 mph and are super loud. They only race on oval tracks so the just go in a circle for hundreds of laps. It originated in North Carolina during the Prohibition era and people up in the mountains would make moonshine (illegal alcohol) and race from cops in their cars. The idea came from that and then it became popular to watch. It's popular in the south and you can find lots of NASCAR tracks throughout southern states. My dad loves NASCAR so I grew up seeing it on the TV every Sunday afternoon. It's not my fav but some people really dig it
Thats why we all love it.

If you serve me tea in coffee cup with no ice that is sad
Wait. What else is tea? Tea is a hot beverage? Wat?
Glasses User that's actually how it's supposed to be.
Charlie Maddick No, darling. Tea is supposed to be on ice and sweet.
Msminnie no. Tea was originally meant to be served hot. How else do you think it's brewed? While it's more COMMON for Southerners to drink sweet iced tea (which is delicious), tea was originally meant to be HOT. I suggest you do some research first. If it's meant to be sweet and cold TO YOU, that's fine. But don't say that someone is wrong because you do things differently.
I'm pretty British. Brewing tea and drinking hot is the only way I knew. Didn't know sweet tea was even a thing??
wait do people really not call it a buggy up north???
my exact thoughts when I saw that!
+Hayden Hughes I actually live in Texas and I have never heard anyone call a shopping cart a buggy. Weird. Maybe I don't get out much.....

We call them buggies in Canada as well. There’s like a gap in the middle full of people who don’t know what a buggy is
I'm from Canada's west coast and we don't call them buggies.
Manager Sejin Stan I’m from Ontario. It’s mainly the older generation that calls them buggies but it isn’t unheard of
Damien Green I think the East coast is a lot more "Canadian" than the west coast. I've heard people from Ontario say "eh" and it was I had heard anyone say something so stereotypically Canadian
I am from canada and we don't call them buggies
It sounds like it's an East-West thing.
Texan here, we call shopping carts 'carts' and we call soda 'soda'. But we do call Coke 'Coke'. The sweet tea is definitely a huge thing tho lol.
Depends, I still call carts buggies.
Bad Misty I know right lol.
Texas native and I call them buggys. I do also say soda and not coke, though.
I live in south Texas and I call Coke soda.
Bad Misty I'm from Texas and I agree with everything you said, except I grew up calling a shopping cart a 'buggy'. I think it's probably different for everyone.
Lived in the south all my life, and I've never heard anyone collectively refer to sodas as "cokes." I've always heard soda or soft drinks.
We call them all cokes in Texas.
I live in San Antonio. It's soda here. And a coke is the coke.
Funny enough, the only time I ever heard anyone call it come was when I moved to WA for a year
@@alyssac5130 Come?
Which part? Cause there are different dialects. Even now I get confused by what people say.
I was telling someone who came from California about lightening bugs. But I couldn't remember what they were called, so I just kept saying 'it's a bug, whose butt lights up." She never did figure out what I was trying to say...
fireflies
Lightening bugs? I never heard that. I’ve always called them fireflies
wait, are there no lightning bugs in california??
lol... I'm from California, but my dad's from Florida, so I'm basically southern without the accent (which is unfortunate 'cause I love accents, but I only have my boring, normal American Dialect for an accent), I couldn't understand what lightening bugs (or fireflies) were (even though I knew what they're called) until we went to 'Bama and I saw them for the first time.
Not in So. Cal...
I live in the south. I don't do half of this shit :p
That's because we are surrounded by people like us at least I am.
It means you're not a Southerner, you just happen to live in the South.
it's for southerners who dont live in the south :)

That's right, iced is better :)

I'm from Ky and it's kinda country but I agree with you that country music sucks. Old country is REAL country. Country nowadays is just pop with a guitar and a southern accent.

"Y'all" is definitely a real word! it's a contraction of "you all".

I'm glad about the stereotypes at the end. People can be so dumb when it comes to the south
I've literally had people ask me if I had ever met a black person before and how many black people I had working for me growing up
I'll never get that, do you think time just stopped in the south after the civil war and NOTHING HAS CHANGED?
The south (well I can only speak for Texas) is so very racially mixed and welcomed! Everyone gets along, there are so many interracial couples and multiracial kids, most of us are half something if not more (I'm biracial myself). Even in the bad neighborhoods you see a mix of races walking around, hanging out, dating, ect. The racist stereotype is the one I hate the most because it is so far from the truth. (P.S I see yo SPG icon!)
The "the south is full of stupid religious people, racists, hillbillies, etc" comments are all extremely insensitive and very hypocritical.
Same omfg if you check my families history never once did we own a slave.
...I've never had anyone ask me if I've met a black person before. Wtf. If they actually looked at the demographics of most states down here they'd realize how ridiculous that question was. I'm from Texas and its one of the biggest "melting pots" in the US (seriously, look it up). I currently live in Louisiana and the town I live in is basically 50/50 black and white (obviously those aren't exact numbers because there are other races here). If anything I think its more of a legitimate question to ask that of Northerners and those in the Midwest as the number of black people is wayyyyy smaller than down here. Also as far as racism, I think there is probably a higher number of radical or outspoken racists in the South but the level of racism in general is low. When you are living in a place where half the population (or in some parts of Texas, the actual majority) is non-white you interact with them all the time and realize they are normal people too. That's what makes me roll my eyes so hard at that stereotype of Southerners (or obviously, specifically white southerners). People wouldn't be asking a hispanic or black person those same questions even though they were raised next door to me and experienced the same kind of upbringing...
On behalf on the #North, I'm sorry we were so ignorant.
That guy is the biggest stereotype I have ever seen, but the girl I can relate to...
Alex The Serpent it depends on which part of the south you are from
I am literally the complete opposite the guy i can relate to because ur proably from a different part of the south where u dont drink beer and watch football and nascar and make a bonfire almost anytime possible. It may seem like a stereotype but its very very true
The first guy wanted to watch the Duke game, but that seems more stereotypical for a black guy to want to watch basketball. Southerns are more into college football.
I think he’s actually from the south tho.
Alex The Serpent Well it is a stereotype, but is a lot of times true lol.
Pop: Canadians and a lot of states up north
Soda: states in the east and west coast
Coke: The south.
Actual brand name of drink: Me.
i do too but i mean how people simplify it (duh). Like, if someone wanted to say "i bought liters of coca cola, pepsi, mountain dew, crush and faint" instead people would say "pop" or "soda" instead of labeling all of them.
I grew up hearing my parents and grandparents use the actual name like, "I got a 12 pack of Sprite" or "I got a liter of Pepsi" or "Can you get me a Mr. Pibb from the sandwich shop?" I never really got the simplifications because most people that I know or hang around use the actual name (talking about people from various backgrounds). :-)
I've heard people in Tennessee and Virginia call all of it Coke...
Dude I'm a Georgian and I can say that we call soda soda, and coke coke
I’m from Florida and I relate to this so hard (except instead of Coke’s we say soda lol)
We say both. Coke refers to Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Dr. Pepper... Soda is usually referred to as everything else... but, even then it can be a mix bag of either or what comes to mind and is said automatically in the moment really.
Arielle hall I'm from north Florida we called all soda coke till we was grown
Scott Hall from south florida and I can relate
I don’t say coke and I often get confused when i hear that term. I live in Tampa for almost 15 years. Granted I am a Michigan Native.
My favorite is "do y'all ride horses to school?"
Or: "Do y'all wear shoes?"
Actually i have friends who hate wearing shoes but maybe thats just my friends
Oh yeah, I live in Texas but I travel a lot so a ton of people asked me that when I was in another state, sometimes I wanna just make up an extremely stereotypical backstory just to mess with people instead of saying that i live in a small town south of San Antonio, I don't own a horse or live on a ranch, and my only pet is a turtle. I also very rarely wear boots. P.S. Tex-mex is literally the best food on the planet
I lived in NC for 9 1/2 years then moved to Baltimore, Maryland. Since then I've been starving for some southern cooking. Like, I want my bbq, my bojangles, and my freaking Zaxbys.

Umm.... yeah.. Please stop, you're not helping our case and you're kind of making all the southerners look really stupid and stereotypical, unless this is just a northerner making fun, then in that case, ha..haha.haha..ha... shut up
Im not making fun, I am from Alabama and this is what me and the majority of most of the people I know eat, calm down
You say "taters" and then explain to "uneducated" folk that it means potatoes? WTF
Steve gave no jobs Yes, when you give someone information they did not have prior to said giving, then you could classify it as educating. So in a since, those that did not know what the slang term "tators" meant, were uneducated on that particular term.
Also, you can have an IQ above 5 and use slang words, or words one might compare to someone of lower education.
Go troll somewhere else.
im a southerner and i still don't understand ppl with super thick southern accents lol but i understand with the buggies and the pop and whatnot. like, imma call a shopping cart a buggie cause thats what it is. and if you have a buscuit sandwich with chicken in it imma call it a chicken buscuit
Amen brother.
Lol im from houston and we dont talk with the "southern" accent either but ive never called a shopping cart a buggy but at least I ssy pe-cON instead of pecAn1
Lizzy m oh when i say i dont understand ppl wth a southern accent everyone where i live has one im an anomaly or something cause i don't really have one tho i do use specific southern dialect at times. and also i thought pronouncing pecan with emphasis on the "con" part was a northerner thing? maybe im confused.
FauxRebel I thought that too lol (the pecan thing) but I find out northerners say peCAN lol its weird
FauxRebel Have you ever listened to a recording of your voice?
There is the south and then there's Texas that isn't like any of the other south states what so ever xD
Lol so true. North Texas is full of hipsters and then east Texas is Cowboys and shit
Joshua Barnes haha and east are like the heck is wrong with you. But I live in North.
Hey, we were our own country, and at times it definitely shows
Shh many haven't realized it yet
Aj the wolf in tired of them thinking I live on a farm and ride horses xD
You know you’re in the south when you ask for tea and you get iced sweet tea
Hey, y'all! I understand most of this cause I live in the south and I find this quite funny lol. I never knew bonfires were only a southern thing lol
I didn't know either. A lot of Northerners even have fire pits built into their back yard, or at least have a portable one.
Kim Probable Really? That's cool!
Really. They aren't particularly big, but they're big enough to cook over.
Kim Probable Oh okay. We often take sticks and branches that are laying around and throw it into a pile and light it
That's what they do, they just have a designated place to do it.
I'm not from the south but most of these apply to me lol
Hot Cosby Same!
I'm a canadian. A maritimer to be exact.
I'm from Britain, and I can confirm I had to read about 100 comments to even start to understand what any o this is on about. Lol
Read the Wikipedia page on the USA, it will explain everything.
Don't listen to comments listen to good country music like Blake Shelton, Keith Urban, Luke Bryan's older stuff, All of Johnny Cash's music, some George Strait, and Randy Travis.
Brits need their own BuzzFeed so we can watch and learn a bit about the UK. Ireland's got Facts. Where's the UK's?
Me tooXD
Luis Villalobos or to be accurate Roots , Blues, Jazz, and Country music rather than mainstream popular country which is not representative of the South. Also, read any genre of literature by southern writers. The nuances creep in.
okay, the “coke=all sodas” is so true
As a Northerner who grew up on British and 1900-30 American literature, I can say that you southerners don't have a monopoly on slang problems. I have definitely used British words for things because I basically got 90% of my vocabulary from Harry Potter.
The Duke one... sooooooo accurate for North Carolinians.
Shea Pierson yep but my whole NC family doesn't enjoy sports at all, can't stand them.
I don't follow any sports whatsoever, but I still hate Duke and root for Chapel Hill. It's just a thing.
Shea Pierson Don't you hate when people randomly just start cheering for duke at the Walmart TV's...
The Gaming Greaser haha, that's like an extreme Southerner situation.
Shea Pierson They'll get the lawn chairs and just sneak in some drinks and watch the game XD
I am a southerner
I drive a honda
I listen to metal
I don't like sports but rather gaming
I don't go mudding
I can't play the banjo
I don't own a confederate flag

I'd rather go to a bonfire than a club
Fried frog legs are bae
I say yall
I say buggy
I don't know why "So which bathroom would you pick during the civil rights movement?" Made me laugh so much.
THAT'S racist.
We do not say pop in the south...
+LadySniperSwagg that is what northerners say... we typically say what kind of coke do you have meaning sodas. She was translating what she meant by what coke she wanted. You don't see to be from the south or just didn't have any comprehension skills.
or just didn't have any comprehension skills.So the second part of my statement was true, No comprehension skills
+LadySniperSwagg you said we don't say pop and you are right. we say coke. in the context of the video she asked what kind of cokes do they have coke=pop so the waiter was confused so she clarified by saying pop. your comment about southerners not saying pop is true but also not needed.
I live in Louisisana. When my family or friends want to go out they end up asking me what kind of coke do you want. I know they mean what soda in general but they just say coke. A lot of people in Louisiana say it like that. and you don't get more southern than that.
Deadwarrior000 I didn't ask about Louisiana. It doesn't make up the whole south. I would guess 80% of the south just calls it soda and I bet 80% of the north does too. Also, you can get more south than Louisiana.
Why was she so confused about a chicken biscuit WHAT IS SO CONFUSING! It's so simple!😡😂
clever name dont forget delicious
I always ask for southern sweet tea at restaurants when I’m in the north just to mess with people.
Real Sorceress i don’t understand lol can you explain the deal with sweet tea?
@@kitsterr It's just plain sweet tea lol. You could search it up if that still doesn't make much sense. Everyone here drinks it all the time, and it basically replaces water for most people.
“bless her heart”
THE SWEET TEA OH MY GOD
I lived in CA for awhile and will move back there when I get married, and there is something wrong with those people.
They never will.
who doesn't like sweet tea south style
***** As far as I know, it's a Southern thing.
Totally Southern. I went to NYC, and I spent 10 minutes looking for a decent thing of sweet tea in an convenience store. They're all fruit flavored.
oh my... the restaurant without sweet tea...sad.
+joslyn Hawley My soul just dies a little bit whenever that happens.
+Keyon Hutson I know right?
Erin The potato It's a crime, lemme tell ya.
Justin Johnson really? I never knew that...
+joslyn Hawley there's cold sweet tea in Michigan. I drink it all the time! and peach tea :)
Is that even work appropriate 😂😂😂
So many people say that accents are strengthened when they have high emotions. Like when you’re really angry, really happy, sad, etc etc. And for me that’s so damn true. Born and raised Tennessean, but my accent is so dialed down in casual conversations. But when I yell or get angry or start crying, yep can tell I was raised in the true southern environment
