Don’t order a steak at a Waffle House. They serve breakfast 24 hours a day. Let them cook something they know. 2. Don’t laugh at folk’s names. Merleen, Bodie, Luther Ray, Tammy, Mari Beth, Marva, Edna Earl and Inez have been known to whip a man’s ass for less than that. 3. Don’t order a bottle of pop or a can of soda; this can lead to a beating. Down here it’s called Coke, even if you want a Pepsi, Sprite or Dr. Pepper. Got it? 4. Southern women don’t fancy the smart mouth Yankees. Just remember, they all have Big brothers and Bigger daddies. 5. Don’t show allegiances to any other school football team but the Longhorns. All the others are a bunch of candy asses who play Wyoming every other week. 6. Don’t call us a bunch of hillbillies. Most of us are better educated than you and a whole lot nicer to boot! We just talk that way to piss you off. 7. Yes, we know the humidity is high; just quit your bitching, spend your money and go home. 8. No, the state symbol of Texas is not the orange and white highway barrel. This road construction is ticking us off too. 9. Don’t go to the Cracker Barrel and substitute toast for the biscuits. If you do this, everyone will know that you’re from Nebraska. Just eat the biscuits like GOD meant for you to do. And do not order poached eggs. No one from the south eats eggs poached. 10. Don’t try to talk with a southern accent if you don’t have one or use regional idioms you can’t possibly understand. Nothing makes us madder. 11. Don’t be telling everybody how much better it was back home. We’re not going to change to make you happy. So if you don’t like it here, Delta is ready when you are. 12. Our food isn’t overcooked; yours is undercooked. 13. Down here, “Kiss my ass” is a perfectly acceptable way to close an argument. You can’t get more closure than that! 14. Flirting is a southern tradition. It doesn’t mean you’re going home with someone later. It doesn’t mean the person flirting with you is even interested. It’s all just practice. 15. Take your hat off when you say the words “Tom Landry”. __________________ MoparStyle Racing Sponsorship Opportunity Visit: www.OldHippie.com www.ChairmanObama.com www.GetOutOfTheUNNow.org www.MoparStyle.com www.NSS-Racing.com [...] [...] Advice for Yankees Moving to Texas Rules Damn Yankees Should Know of When They Move to Texas 1.
