Hey Darlene, I was thinking the same thing, it must be a NC redneck thing.

It does look that way, haha!!!

but then again, you are somewhat centrally located in NC. After living in the mountains of NC for most of my life, when I moved to the coast of NC I was like huh? what did you just say???

Now at 45 I'd have to say my speech is a combination of mountain dialect, coastal dialect, and since both my parents were from up north, there's a bit of yankee in there too! Now I live in Arkansas. Most people I meet when I talk to them the first time they just nod their heads alot and say aha, aha.

My mom's favorite is "Sh** or get off the pot". (need to make up your mind)


Really though, some of these make me feel old.. I use them myself!

My fav is "A few ants short of a picnic". "Dumb as a box o' rocks" is another one we use here.

I swear I've heard about 98% of these in my lifetime...
"A few fries short of a Happy Meal"
"Dumb as the day is long"
"Gone around the bend"
Means you're stupid, period or just out of your mind.

I LOVE that Nyquil commercial.

When my stepson is trying to pull one on his dad, my DH will tell him: "I may have been born at night, but I wasn't born last night"

" he couldn't pour pi** outta of a boot with the instructions on the heel"

always used to tell my teenagers, "I might be slow, but I ain't stupid!" means, it might take me a couple days, but I will catch ya.

And my mama used to tell us when she caught us at something, "A little birdie told me".
