What states would you consider to be in the south? I lived in North Carolina for about 4 years which I as a yankee considered to be in the south. I was told by one of my southern friends that this was not the case. He listed off Ga, Miss, Ala, and La as the only southern states. I asked about Florida, to which he said I must be mistaken as there is no state called Florida and perhaps I meant North Cuba.

With his outstanding intellect and his insights into buoyancy, why isn't this man Governor of Georgia?

I have never understood Georgia etiquette.

For instance - on the drive home after the Florida loss, if your Red Man chewing girlfriend spits out the passenger window of your truck but it lands in the eyes of a kid strapped in the baby seat, do you turn around and slap the kid to quiet it then, or do you wait until the 7-Eleven stop for more Bud Light?


Bud Light? Who the hell do I look like? Conway Twitty? I can't afford that shit!

I'm a Busch Light man. A real Murican beer for a real Murican!

N.Car, S.Car, GA, TN, FL, LA, AL, MS and KY are what I consider the Southern states. You'd probably get a different answer depending on who you spoke to.

Some people throw Arkansas in there, others Virginia.

:sad: I have actually never owned a truck so I am totally unqualified to answer these. I'll let Nutria handle these - as soon as he gets his out of impound.

typical georgian, can't finish what he starts

Florida = North Cuba
South Carolina, UGA, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana = the South
Tennessee = almost the south
Kentucky = tries to be the south, because the north doesn't want them either
North Carolina and Virginia = half and half (slight lean towards the South)
Arkansas = completely irrelevant to anyone outside of Arkansas

[quote='BusNative;168516;8]Multi-part question:

1. What is the appropriate size truck bed for all-day beer drinking?
8 foot bed minimum. Anything smaller is just pissing in the wind

2. When considering a truck for such an activity, should one consider payload vis-a-vis kiddie pools?
if a dump truck is available, that is what you'd want


3. How far from one's porch should the truck be on the front lawn?
close enough to yell at your kid to bring more beer

4. What is the optimum height of truck perch, as measured in cinder blocks?
depends on the height of the person. I'm only 5' 8", so 2 cinder blocks laid on their sides, or just one if they're stood on end.

5. In the outside chance the truck has tires, where should one put the tires before raising truck on cinder blocks (esp. if there is no access to a creek to make tire swing an option)?
use the tires as a weight to keep the broken shed doors from flapping in the wind.

6. What's the best way to execute truck-bed beer drinking relative to a) football watching, b) access to BBQ pit / grill / smokehouse c) avoiding wife (sister/cousin) d) access to cold beers?

easiest question yet.
geaux to walmart, and steal one of them flat platform that attaches to your trailer hitch.
mount grill to that platform, and you don't have to leave the pool to cook.
float your ice chest on an old trailer tire to keep your beer handy
float your TV on the truck tire that was keeping your shed door closed.
send your wife/sister/cousin to her mom's with the kids

Thanks in advance.[/quote]

A few observations on the South by a Yankee (no longer a damn Yankee, since I moved back North again).

1. The farther south one drives in Florida, the farther north one gets.

2. The panhandle of Florida is not actually part of Florida. It is part of Lower Alabama, or LA. If someone in Dothan, Alabama asks how you like LA, he's not talking Rodeo Drive. He's talking Opp Rattlesnake Roundup.

3. Boiled peanuts are truly an acquired taste. Few people not born in the South are capable of acquiring it.

4. Bass in the South are huge; whitetail deer in the South are tiny.

5. Racial attitudes in the South are generally more cordial and progressive than in the North. The marked exception to this rule is north Louisiana, where the Klan is typically regarded as being "soft on the Negro question."

6. Woof, at this point do you feel like you might oughta not started this thread?

The deeper into Florida you get, the more you wish you'd just stayed home

Fuck Bama

3. Boiled peanuts are truly an acquired taste. Few people not born in the South are capable of acquiring it.
you shoulda ordered the boudin instead

4. Bass in the South are huge; whitetail deer in the South are tiny.
only pussies fish freshwater

5. Racial attitudes in the South are generally more cordial and progressive than in the North. The marked exception to this rule is north Louisiana, where the Klan is typically regarded as being "soft on the Negro question."
yeah, North Louisiana is a bitch.
outside of New Orleans, South Louisiana can be pretty bad too
