North vs. South

<p>Colorado being in the West is enough to make the West better than everything else combined. The same can be said about California (unless you separate the Pacific from the West for some reason) – or at least about California’s scenery and colleges.</p>

<p>lol no, Jake24. I live in the South. That’s not just the way it is.</p>

<p>^ What state are you in?</p>

<p>we don’t call northerns yankees here either, in kentucky</p>

<p>we don’t appreciate being called rednecks. rednecks are trash. and ima [New</a> Orleans lady](<a href=“http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NFn0yDe-Ls&feature=related]New”>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NFn0yDe-Ls&feature=related), thankyouverymuch</p>

<p>Southern man
better keep your head
Don’t forget
what your good book said
Southern change
gonna come at last
Now your crosses
are burning fast
Southern man</p>

<p>I saw cotton
and I saw black
Tall white mansions
and little shacks.
Southern man
when will you
pay them back?
I heard screamin’
and bullwhips cracking
How long? How long?</p>

<p>Lynyrd Skynyrd’s response was pretty good too.</p>

<p>@Jake24 I’m in Georgia.</p>

<p>

Their song alone is almost enough to make me want to go to Alabama.</p>

<p>Well, being a godless communist, socialist, fascist, anarchist, secular, radical, blame-America-first, cowardly, Northeastern, elitist, ivory-tower, Injun foreigner lib-ruhl, I can’t help but feeling a little superior to all the folks in the flyover states. But with Nikki Haley and Bobby Jindal living in governor’s mansions, who knows? The times, they are a changin’. But until then, the North is far better.</p>

<p>For those of you who will inevitably criticize me for being insensitive, this post was meant to be sarcastic.</p>

<p>Oh, on the subject</p>

<p><a href=“Page does not exist”>Page does not exist;

<p>^that’s actually hilarious, and I’m from the south</p>

<p>Sweet Home Alabama=awesometastic. [I was actually born in alabama and half my family lives there, so…]</p>

<p>I do see why people judge the south so much though. Hell, I’m related to some of the people they’re judging it for. Honestly though, the craziest of the right-wing die-hard evangelical christian republicans are mostly older. Seriously, even though many, many people are christian and republican [besides some mississippi hippies and, obviously, the multitudes of people that are neither christian nor republican], most are not the crazies you see on TV all the time.</p>

<p>I might be a little skewed though, having been raised in the heavily catholic, significantly more socially liberal New Orleans area. Which, incidentally, is different from the rest of the south in almost every way.</p>

<p>^^ Most have no clue how true that is.</p>

<p>Could someone explain the difference between iced tea and sweet tea?
Don’t most people usually sweeten their ice tea–so isn’t it the same?</p>

<p>all sweet tea is iced tea, but not all iced tea is sweet tea.</p>

<p>See, that’s what I thougt too but this girl I know who’s from Georgia was saying (actually she got kind of really upset about the comparison) the sweetened iced Teas like Nestea or something aren’t the same thing as sweet tea–she got pretty heated about it. </p>

<p>And then I got confused. This is why I mainly drink juices.</p>

<p>They’re not. They’re made from a powder. It’s like saying Lemonade made from Country Time powder is the same as Lemonade made from Lemons, water and sugar. Real iced tea is made from tea bags [like Luzianne], water and sugar. But if you’re at a restaurant, sometimes they’ll differentiate if you order “Sweet Tea” versus “Iced Tea”, though not usually. Normally just “Iced Tea, unsweetened please” is sufficient to get it unsweetened.</p>

<p>^ Why would you want unsweetened anyway?</p>

<p>^Sweet Tea is way too sweet for a lot of people’s tastes, so people add their own artificial sweetener or less sugar…trust me if you don’t like it too sweet, you get it unsweetened. Also, it’s pretty unhealthy. The only Sweet Tea I’ve drank was at Bojangles, and it’s pretty sweet, but tasty. They’re known for their tea. :p</p>

<p>Yeah, Bama is one of my safety schools. I really liked it, and I loved the campus and atmosphere. </p>

<p>But I can tell my parents don’t like it lol</p>
