Just for kicks and giggles I asked Google about "self respecting Southerners" and this is what we came up with:
- No self-respecting southerner uses instant grits
- And one thing no self-respecting southerner should be caught without a properly stocked bar.
- After all, no self-respecting Southerner would dare vote for a Northerner
- No self-respecting Southerner would hop aboard a boat wearing black slacks.
- No self-respecting Southerner would think of leaving fresh pineapples out of their Christmas decorations
- No self-respecting Southerner would ever be without cheese straws
- No self respecting Southerner makes cornbread from a box”
- No self-respecting Southerner, I boldly say, would let New Year's Day pass without at least one bite of black- eyed peas
- No self respecting southerner would say "ya'll guys"
- No self-respecting Southerner uses any mayo besides Duke's
- No self respecting southerner would eat the biscuits you get out of a peel and pop tube
- No self-respecting Southerner who would serve baked possum would serve it without sweet potatoes
- No self-respecting Southerner would ever put bread crumbs in their macaroni & cheese
- No self- respecting southerner would be so rude as to hang up before saying a proper thank-you, followed by a goodbye
