I sure did not mean my comment about an observation to be taken as mean spirited or prejudicial...

I apologize to anyone I may have offended...

[Solly Mack]

1. Well bless your heart.

2. The beauty of DU is that everyone is allowed an opinion...

[uppityperson]

5. Indeed. No matter how "ist" an opinion is.

[WCGreen]

11. You got me....

I'm the biggest "ist" that ever prowled the rooms of DU...

Perhaps I should but the sarcasm thingy everytime I try to poke fun. That seems to excuse a lot here on DU...

[uppityperson]

14. YOU are the biggest "ist"? Huh, must've missed all that.

Been not on Du much recently, could explain it. Ah well, carry on. Ist away!

[WCGreen]

15. I sure didn't mean it as an "ist" comment....

[uppityperson]

16. It seemed odd for you to be an ist-er (?) as I don't recall that of you. I think I know

what you were meaning, having smarmy accented people making you look askance at others of the same accent. I have done the same and realized that it was "ist"ing. Hmm, a new verb. Or is it more prejudging people based on a characteristic like speech accent, region, color, sex, etc. Musing here.

Maybe it is best for me to stay off DU again for a while, makes me cranky. sorry

[WCGreen]

17. I was being snarky and I apologize..

don't stay away.

3. I still like the Mississippi accent.

If you can just get them to stay on the topic of iced tea or football, it's lovely. Just don't talk about religion, morality, or politics.

6. I'm going to Nashville in September....

I love that city and I know it is full of right wingers but the people I have met and dealt with over the yeats are freindly and kind...

I hold my tounge.

The woman we stay with is a liberal democrat.

13. You can talk to a few of us about those things.

If more of us felt the same way about those issues, maybe I wouldn't have to spend so much time on the internet.

7. That's too bad...

I've known many southerners. I find their accents relaxing. I listen to their words, not the way in which they deliver their message.

8. I wonder what you would think of mine.

I'm not sure how much of a drawl I have but I have resided in North Carolina my whole life (though I've traveled internationally).

[FLPanhandle]

9. I'm still a sucker for a woman with a southern accent.

I remember being in Nashville back when I was single. I was falling in love daily.

Nothing a politician or preacher can do will ever change that.

[nosmokes]

10. aural sex.

12. Now that is clever...
