That happens here as well. Or everyone in line plus the cashier will have a conversation about something that happened 20 years ago. All complaining aside I don’t know how you big city guys tolerate the rushed life.You know you’re in the South when in line at the store, and the individual if front starts telling his life story. Like I give a rat’s ***.

You speak English in the south? LollA man of few words, you might say.
Dusty I've always been extremely versed in the English language. That was actually my other love in school besides auto shop. I could have probably been an English teacher. I have a serious knack for putting words and phrases together. Always had really high Bs or all As in English and rarely cracked a book.
If you see me misspell something, it's more often I'm typing like I "tawk" for instance. Words such as "caint" and droppin the "G" on present participles, for instance. It's a southern thing.
