January 31, 200818 yr Doesn't have to be a death either. What if the preacher "run off" with one of the ladies from the choir? I'm thinking Lawsy Mercy might be appropriate for that occasion. :lol: I've always liked, "Oh, for crying out loud."
January 31, 200818 yr I have always heard that when someone is "madder than a wet hen" that they are pretty upset. Also like the saying " Hey Fred how are you today?" " Ahhh hanging in there like a hair in a biscuit" LOL
January 31, 200818 yr I have learned that there are some people from the north who do not appreicate gravy. How can that be?????? When they do get a biscuit and put some gravy on it (under protest - I am talking about my husband) they just put a small amount of gravy on the biscuit and this drives me crazy. I have finally told him that he is never to waste good gravy on a good biscuit. So now he watches in wonder when I throw as much gravy as I can on my biscuit. Yea, you GOTTA "sop" your biscuit real good in gravy!!
January 31, 200818 yr I cant believe some people on her have never had a " footlong with everything and slaw." Man you are missing out. BTW, am I the only one who has ever been to the " county line "? lol
January 31, 200818 yr Lawsy Mercy is good for expressing surprises, but if you want to gossip or criticize someone, say "bless their heart." You can say anything if you follow it up with bless their heart. For example, "He is as dumb as a coal bucket. Bless his heart." This is very true. People think they are alright if they add "Bless his heart" at the end. I have heard people say some pretty bad things about people, then add "Bless his heart".
January 31, 200818 yr Well only if your in NKY that there is such thing as a Gold Star and Skyline:lol:

January 31, 200818 yr I'm surprised that no one has mentioned this one. I was going to but I just never got a round tuit.
January 31, 200818 yr Growing up I had a neighbor lady refer to a brown paper bag as a "poke". My in-laws "wretch" right up and get an apple off the tree. They also fish in a crick, instead of a creek. In college, a roommate laughed when I pronounced 'Arnett' as R-Net instead of Rnit. Evidently there is a difference in the pronunciation based on how wealthy that particular family is. Don't forget iron is arn...you know. IRONTON, OH or arnton, oh. And my dad, who was born and raised in Ironton, called a piano a Pie-ano. (long I). This is the same with the name 'Cornett' in my county. People are Cor-nit when they live in Owsley County, then they move to Ohio and come back and visit, and it's suddenly Cor--Net, with a pause between the syllables. Then everyone says (behind their back) that they're trying to be "above their raising."
January 31, 200818 yr Here's something I find strange. I CAN NOT find no "pickled bologna" anywhere here in Sanford Florida. Get away from those backward people, anyone that has not had or does not sell "pickled baloney" just ain't ever had any good eatin. Never heard of hot dog sauce. That is pretty funny. I have heard this same thing from others in other areas, I can't believe that there are ones that have never heard of hot dog sauce. That stuff (home made h.d. sauce) is sold at every grocery store deli or super quick stop in our area. We grew up on the stuff. I know you are from Northern Kentucky when you think a 3-way is a chili dish. :lol::sssh::sssh: I have also heard of a 4 way there as well :scared:. I cant believe some people on her have never had a " footlong with everything and slaw." Man you are missing out. BTW, am I the only one who has ever been to the " county line "? lol I agree on the footlong fanofky! :thumb: Yes, I have been to the county line. This is very true. People think they are alright if they add "Bless his heart" at the end. I have heard people say some pretty bad things about people, then add "Bless his heart".:lol: I know...I have heard just about anything about someone with that attatched,..... "he has never been or never will be nothing but an old worthless drunk"...."Bless his heart, he can't help it". :lol: Well only if your in NKY that there is such thing as a Gold Star and Skyline:lol: Actually, there is a Skyline restaraunt in our area in Russell, Ky. I can honestly say that I have never seen over a couple of cars parked in the lot at any time.... if that many, the lot is usually empty.
