Mal ,'Heart Of Gold'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Hee.
Speaking of football fans, did you see LSU/Alabama?
I swear Les Miles had a meeting with the team after the V Tech game and said "You know, this year's just not exciting enough for the Janes. Let's see if we can't give them heart attacks every Saturday."
Yankee
I was raised with Yankee being negative. Also Clemson. My Dad's a die-hard Georgia Bulldogs fan! "How 'bout them Dawgs???" Hahahahahaha!
I guess I mostly identify with being Californian.

Parts of it. I was rooting for y'all, of course.
I just realized that I'll be on a plane coming back from Oklahoma during Bama/Auburn this year. If I'd been paying attention when DH bought the tickets, I would've insisted on returning a day earlier or later, but normally they play the weekend before Thanksgiving. Of course, normally Thanksgiving isn't so early.
I would totally count OK as cultural South because my grandfather was from there and ate pig's feet and said "Fixin' to," and "right yet" but it's not geographic South.
My people said "fixin' to" and "crick" and "I'll swan," -- there's some linguistic overlap between south and deep midwest.
"I'll swan,"
What does that one mean? I always read it in books when I was a kid, and I could never map it onto any phrase that I know.
for when you really want to swear, but can't admit it. It has the added advantage of sounding as if you might faint.

In a graceful manner - i.e. more like a swan than a duck.
always. though if you do it too much, you'll most likely come down with the vapors.
or an overwhelming sense of self-importance.
