You might be a “Southie” if...

I don't know what sort of cilantro you're eating, it tastes nothing like soap!

It tastes like the smell of a musty old dishrag.

Well there are a few Massasaguas on Bois Blanc Island, but they might technically be below the line.

A few what? Where?

Am I a “Southie” now?!? The temp is dropping below 65 tonight these people here in Louisiana are running to dig the jackets back out of the closet. OMG!!

A post on another thread reminded me of a pure Southie thing...

You might be a Southie, if you have to wonder if that snake you see is poisonous...


The land of the Northerners is poisonous snake free!

There are no poisonous sankes. There are venomous snakes though.

I have driven a vehicle across a frozen lake. I have hiked on the frozen ocean. I was born on the west coast of the US. I have lived in AK, the desert of Phoenix, the Midwest and the South.

ETA I'm wrong. There are 2 snakes that are poisonous. One is because they eat toxic toads.

It’s a great night to skinny dip, you know the native Southies will be no where near the beach With those temps.

Did you check the map? Are you aware AK is not a Northerner area?

The Gulf would be safe for you to swim in as long as you don’t mind sharks, stingrays, jellyfish ...

I mind all of those very much, thank you. Where I live there are no killer fish/reptiles which I very much appreciate!

Not at all. Very different scientific definitions. One must be ingested/injected, one is injection only. If Alaska is not northern, then there is no northern. I lived in the northern most town you can get in the US. Barrow/Utqiagvik Alaska.
