"Things Hicks Never Say" I'll take Shakespeare for 100, Alex. Duct tape won't fix that. Lisa Marie was lucky to catch Michael! I think I'll have a Heineken. I thought Graceland was tacky. We don't keep firearms in this house I need to buy a sideburns trimmer. You can't feed that to a dog! I've got it all on floppy disc. No kids in the back of the pickup, it's not safe. Wrestling is fake! We're vegetarians. Honey, did you mail that donation to Greenpeace? Do you think my hair is too big? I'll have grapefruit instead of biscuits and gravy. Who's Richard Petty? I'll take just a small bag of pork rinds Deer heads detract from the decor. Trim the fat off my steak, please I sure like that Hillary Clinton Checkmate! She's too old to be wearing a bikini. Elvis who? I'll have the arugula and radicchio salad. I believe you cooked those green beans too long. Those shorts shouuld be a little longer, Darla. Spitting is such a nasty habit!

Came across this on the Net, it's funny and fits in with the general theme "Survivor" Alabama Style The state of Alabama is planning its version of the t.v. show Survivor called "Survivor: Alabama Style." Contestants will start in Huntsville, travel south through Arab down to Jasper and Birmingham, south through Montgomery and Maxwell Air Force Base, on down further to Dothan and Headland. They will then proeceed to Troy, Phoenix City, Auburn, Sylacaqua, Talledega, via Anniston and Gadsen back to Huntsville, all on the secondary "back roads" through rural areas. Each will be driving a bright pink Volvo sporting a large bumper sticker, conspicuously placed, that reads: "I'm gay, I voted for Al Gore, I'm in an inter-racial relationship, I'm here to confiscate your guns and impose a vegetarian diet on you, and Dale Earnhardt was queer as a three dollar bill." The first one to make it back to Huntsville wins!

There's a youtube video called Southern Chicks and it shows them saying a lot of the stuff on the first post here in those cute accents. God, I was smiling while watching it

I spent a summer in Alabama with a group of hippies for a Rainbow gathering back in '93. I asked my mom for her bible to keep in the glove box so when a cop asks me for my registration, he'd see the bible and maybe be a bit nicer to me. My sister thought that was blasphemy. My mom said, "Well, it isn't a bad idea to avoid trouble."
