Topic | Why do southerners still call Americans from elsewhere "Yankees"? |

I lived in Georgia and Florida (although not north enough in Florida to be the US South), as well as vacationing across the SE US, and I can't recall once hearing somebody use Yankee. This feels like it's not a thing. Have you been to an SEC school? A tailgate? After church lunch? Military base? People say it all the time in the south. Gulfport, Lake Charles, Mobile, where there is a lot of old money white people? Are you social? Do you interact with southerners less than others by chance? My argument wasnt that it was cringe. It is that the behavior of southerners can be cringe in various contexts and worldviews. It doesn't look like you had an argument. It looks like you got triggered and resorted to the safety of an ad hominem. --- "Oh, you think lag is your ally. You merely adopted lag. I was born in it, molded by it.
