I posted a clip from this whole video not too long ago. But today the full video showed up on my feed and it's so much better. As a southerner that's traveled a bit, we catch a lot of shite. It's annoying. But most of the time, we can smile and just take a joke and laugh it off. It still stings a bit that because you have a drawl or roll your R's a bit that people think you're dumb. So, every now and again it's nice when foreigners come down here and really enjoy being around us folk.

We ain't never met a stranger and we never will.

Then why are most people on the board real dick bags? Im not saying this is real life at all but I dont think I have seen a rationale, good mannered person on this board.

And in real life I have dealt with my share of rudeness, especially in Tennessee

Because they’re day drinkers.

I get my bad side out here. The hate has to come out and this is somewhat anonymous.

I watched that yesterday and thought how proud I was of Louisiana after watching it.

They should be happier then.

Most people on the board are fake and are everything they hate. It's one big internet lie.

You don't find it odd that a south Louisiana based message board is full of 6'4", in shape, non drinkers, with no debt and lots of money? Have you ever been to south Louisiana?

My experience is that most people are friendly, and usually the only difference between southern hospitality and the rest of the country is mam and sir.

I’ve traveled all over the country and by far and away the most friendly people are in the Midwest.

I agree with your sentiment. I’m not some Boy Scout, but I make an effort to be civil and to not be a dick just because. It’s really not hard. I think those who immediately get into name calling and pissing contests behind the wall of anonymity are either dicks or pussies in the real world

As that old saying goes (in various ways of telling it): “if someone you meet is an a-hole, they’re an a-hole. If everyone you meet is an a-hole, you’re the actual a-hole.”

Kid in the red truck toward the beginning is from Starks/Toomy. They mention Orange so I’m guessing that was filmed on 109 south of I-10 headed toward the intercostal. Either there are on the Sabine where 90 ends where the old bridge burned years and years ago.

They show the old bridge in the video. So, you called it.

In my personal experience, southern hospitality is kind of a myth

Most places you go, 80% of most folks you meet - people are fine. Not exceptional, not awful, but fine. The top 10% are awesome everywhere I’ve been, and the bottom 10% are a nightmare wherever I’ve been. Doesn’t matter income level, region, race, sex, etc.

Southern people just usually have better food to offer
