If anyone around here actually said "barbed wire"  or "how are you" or "for-reign", we'd be laughed out of town.

Shay!  Calm down, man.  Grin  It's not like I have a northern accent and I'll bet LL and Luci don't either.  We can just totally relate to this thread, though.
 
One of the locals here asked my daughter if she'd seen the "far."  Seriously, it took us two whole minutes to figure out if he meant the "fire" or the "fair."

It's so funny. :laff:
 
But seriously, it's kinda irritating when reading it. Do you Southerners speak like this everyday?
