I recently watched this video that was shared on Facebook called "Sh%t Southern Woman Say" it was HILARIOUS and so very true. I say most of the things that they showed in the video and so does 99.9% of all women in my life. So I have compiled a couple of "Southern-isms" and their meanings just for our friends who are from above the Mason Dixon Line.

1. "Buggy"

i.e. "Someone stole Sherlene's buggy at the Piggly Wiggly this morning."

2. "Bless your heart

A phrase that sounds sympathetic, but is really used when the person thinks that the actions or words of the speaker are stupid/ dumb.

i.e " Person 1: The dog bit me this morning when I tried to take away his bone. Person 2: Bless your heart honey! Did you go to the Emergency Room?"

3. "Catawampus"

Uneven or sideways.

i.e "Earl, does that picture on the wall look cattawampus to you?"

There are hundred more of these crazy sayings, but I only picked my favorite ones. The last one I will leave you with is one my daddy says a lot when he has to go somewhere in the city. "Yankees are like hemorrhoids: Pain in the butt when they come down and always a relief when they go back up." Enjoy friends! Comment some of the sayings you love the most!
