[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Freeman][quote=Anonymous]I guess I am a Southerner?? Texan here, and when referring to the geographic area, I prefer to say Texan vs South or Southerner, etc.[/quote]

Yep, Texan is definitely different from Southern. Of course, I grew up in south Alabama, and we didn't think those idiots in north Alabama really qualified as Southerners either. And don't even get me started on Florida...  :D [/quote]

Tennessee here- Just have to say, Amen on Florida![/quote]

Geography according to a Southerner:

Florida doesn't count. It's an annex of the North.
Texas doesn't count either. It counts more than Florida, but really, it's just its own entity and should be treated as such. Texas is basically just its own distinct region.
Virginia as the south is pushing it; NoVa does NOT count. I'd say Richmond is as high north as you can get and still be considered "South." 
Rednecks live in such places as Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, and Mississippi. In Louisiana, you have swamp trash. In Tennessee and Kentucky and North Carolina, you have hillbillies. They're all very distinct groups, so please get your pejoratives correct when you use them! 
Missouri is the Midwest, not the South, do not make us laugh. Same with Indiana. I don't care if that shit borders Kentucky; Kentucky barely gets a pass itself. If you are from Indiana, you are a Midwesterner. [/quote]

St. Louis and Kansas City are Midwestern. Northern Missouri is Midwestern. Southern Missouri is the South, though. It's as Southern as TN or Arkansas. [/quote]
