Except for, like, the Bible Belt, I guess.

I'm talking about manner and mien rather than world view. Any Southerners I've met all seem pretty laid back, unlike most Northerners.

As an aside, I do love how saying you like Southerners is such a red lines crosser for Northerners.

broad generalities are accurate both ways vicar.

i have never had want for a ride home or a place to crash in the south.

So, so true.

"As an aside, I do love how saying you like Southerners is such a red lines crosser for Northerners."

Not a line crossing thing for most people I know, more just a matter of thinking that anyone who would make a generality about an entire region's people (aka "they're all likeable", "they're all laid-back", etc) doesn't really know much about that place or those people.

Ooh! I've never made it there, but I hear it's fun.

It's weirder than one would think, and probably far more gay than most of its punters realize.

Bitchin roller coasters, too
