Southern women
A very genteel Southern lady was driving across the Savannah River Bridge in Georgia one day. As she neared the top of the bridge, she noticed a young man fixing to jump.
She stopped her car, rolled down the window and said, “Please don’t jump, think of your dear mother and father.”
He replied, “Mom and Dad are both dead; I’m going to jump.”
She said, “Well, think of your wife and children.”
He replied, “I’m not married and I don’t have any kids.”
She said, “Well, think of Robert E. Lee.”
He replied, ”Who’s Robert E. Lee?”
She replied… ”Well, just go ahead and jump, you dumb ass Yankee.”

Ouch, good thing I am not a Yankee
REMF says:
Good one:lol:.I live in Alaska. Does that make me a yankee?
William Teach says:
:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:
REMF: no, you have to be from the one of the old Union states to be considered a Yankee. You would be “that boy (or girl) from that really cold state”

(this is supposed to be a true story, but I have my doubts since I never heard of a subsequent lynching).
A Yankee was driving on the hi-way through Georgia and got pulled over for speeding by a state trooper. The trooper gets out of the car and comes to the driver side window.
Yankee - “is there a problem officer?”
Trooper - “Yes sir, you were speeding.”
Yankee - “Oh, really? I’m sorry about that. I wasn’t watching the speedometer.”
Trooper - “So then, how fast to you THINK you were going?”
Yankee - “Well, since I got pulled over, I’m guessing about as fast as Sherman.”

During the years I lived in New Orleans, adjacent to Lee Circle was the “Museum of the War of Northern Aggression.” I always wanted to sneak down there one night and change the sign to the “Museum of Northern Ass Whoop’n” but then again, judgment is the better part of valor.
