[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 45459, member: 1967"] I live in the south and really didn't take any offense. I think Jeff Foxworthy is hilarious and it is because everyone knows that he is using stereotypes and not making fun of real people. I've heard people make fun of other parts of the country, too. I can think of the line in [i]Terms of Endearment[/i] about a person who was being rude ~ "He must be from New York" ~ inferring that all New Yorkers are rude. And there is a current movie out ([i]Georgia Rules[/i]) where Lindsay Lohan is acting like a difficult child and the grandmother explains to onlookers that "she was raised in California" as if that explains everything. But if it hurt feelings then I'm glad the thread is gone. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
