| I can give you an example of my "Yankee" accent hehe When I say Dollar I dont say it that way I say Dolla another one is Yesterday I say Yestaday other than that Im told i sound Californian more than a Yankee My eldest stepson sounds like he's from New York sometimes with some of his words he has NO southern accent, my youngest Stepson has a very very thick southern accent, I jokingly say that my youngest is a little bit country and my eldest is a little bit rock n roll |

You've got to be nearly southern by now after 2-1/2 years in TN, do you speak with a southern accent now? (lol) (hmm how do you type y'all?) I will definately need to look into more of the Violet Burning music. Good stuff  |
There you go getting ahead of yourself, disco boy.
No matter what, once a yankee, ALWAYS a yankee. A yankee is someone from the north. A damned yankee is one from the north who moves to the south.
Get it?
Got it?
GOOD! |
WRONG.
a yankee is somebody from the North visiting the South. a d*** yankee is somebody from the North that comes to the South and doesnt leave!
