on my way driving from ohio to Disney with my school band, we went to several bucees at around 1-5am and it very much was an experience, especially for the workers that had 100 exhausted teenagers pile in at 3 am
When I moved from San Francisco to North Carolina, it took me a year to realize that when ladies at church said “bless your heart” it wasn’t exactly a good thing.😂❤. Love your videos.
nothing makes them as mad as seeing it as a compliment. and they can't REALLY get mad over it, because they SAID a nice thing...implying they didn't mean it like that would make them a liar...at church....they eat their words..with a lot of salt XD
You can stay Just as long as you vote conservative… You should embrace the Babtist food; greens, beans and BBQ. . California doesn’t have real food nor knows what real food is.
Well as a fellow person from Tennessee and North Carolina I see it as “what is the tone?” way. The video is an example of “I feel sorry for you” or “God bless your soul.” But if done in a sweet tone obviously that is more of a genuine thank you.
You know what gets me? I live in Texas, in a Dallas suburb and there are no Buc'ees within 30 minutes of me. There's only like 9 of them in the entire state. I bet most of the people talking about them have never even been 😂
I gotta say though, every quik trip I've been to has been phenomenal as well. Only gas stations I've been to that have peach oced tea slushes and about 10 flavors of sweet tea...as a southerner they know how to make themselves at home in the south
Bless your heart is the equivalent of You’ve activated my trap card for southerners. Every time an older lady says it to me, I die inside a little more lmao
It's the tone. You can get a genuine "bless your heart" as a kind of "thank you". Most of the time you get it though it's more "oh, well, he's trying at least" 🤣
I live in Texas and work for DG. Some lady from Cali came in and bought something I had to ID her for. She tried saying Bless your heart to me without comprehending what it means.
As a trucker, I recommend buc-ee's to anyone who hasn't gone yet. Ngl, when I saw a billboard for beaver nuggets, I thought they were literally taking about eating fried beaver meat 🤣🤣.
Never been, can you give me a “shopping list” for this momentous occasion I might spend my weekend doing? I suppose I need to get their beaver nuggets but anything else I need to keep an eye out for?
@@frzstat hey that’s my nickname in the family! That name goes way back, my uncle strictly calls me that exclusively and I feel honored to have such a name
Im apart of my school's marching band we stopped at buckee's before we arrived at a competition and i can definitely say that it is a experience that cant be topped
Try being southern with a Scottish momma ? That is me she loves the south and dang does she make the best fried chicken and she knows how to do it right by us southerners smoke it and always have both bbq sauce many kinds and hot sauces many kinds on hand. I’ve been in Ohio so long I’ve not had real food since the nascar race on my 25th birthday when we visited the Cracker Barrel man did that make me more home sick to Beaufort SC. It made me wish we had never left the hotel or at least me lol. Scottish moms get us southerners. She loves the south. She’s a police woman down there.
Love this. When he’s in green, he’s the Midwesterner. In red, he’s playing the American from the South, capital S. Green like the Green Bay Packers football team. He’s wearing a warm hat (pea cap), and the Jeez-Louise, and Chicago-style hotdogs (delicious, but Chicago pizza even better). He’s not from the Midwest because he doesn’t mix his t’s and d’s, or apologize nearly enough. His polite, “did I win?” was pure Midwestern zinger, though! I’m from Michigan, so not as familiar with Southern charm, but his ballcap on backwards, his “y’all”, and knowledge of the best food on Earth are all stereotypically Southern. And “Bless your heart” is actually the most potent, discussion-ending put-down that exists. Brilliant!
... nah. From Wisconsin but I've with summers down south in Tennessee and Florida... yeah it gets out by your heat doesn't shut us down the way the dusting of snow WRECKS you people
@@chiefkolass8226my mom was once in the hospital and I had a yard sale to help with bills. Someone came in our house and stole some of the money. My aunt said Bless Your Heart. Not the same outcome as when someone backs into your car because they had the music up too loud to hear your horn and you say Bless Your Heart because you know you have good insurance that is going to smite them like the hand of God.
Because he knows the south would crumble. We in the Midwest are a hearty people who live in arctic wastelands and humid air swamps without changing our address and he's trying to make soft ass southerners seem more advanced than they are.
Hahaha omg na hun that’s nuthing compared to what we do we think shooting at a hurricane will make it go away we also have zombies that eat faces lightning strike shark bite and meth capital of the world just in Florida bless your heart
My family is half Southern and half Midwestern. My grandpa came from deep country Kentucky, and my grandma came from Chicago. They both moved to Indiana at a young age. So my vocabulary is a huge jumble of southern and Midwestern words. I could say "Jeezluise" and "dagomit" in the same sentence and not even think about it.
@@Dr.Frankensteen She didn't live in Chicago itself, more like an add on. I see many cities do that, including my own. She lived upmost northern part, that wasn't too nice. That's That's her accent is more midwestern.
As a southerner. QT is a experience because the employees actually do their job. I do like Bucky's a lot but QT has got some memories from when I would drive home from school. Those stick.
Can you tell me this? How often do you pass up walking in a Bucees compared to a QT? I’m telling you this right now I’m gonna go in that Bucees. But if I see a QT I’m not always gonna go in there. I will never pass up a chance to experience happiness. I go on a QT for the things I need, I’m going to Bucees for the things I need and the things I want.
@@victoriaphillips9296 it's an all beef hot dog on a poppy seed bun with a dill pickle spear,atomic relish, a whole sport pepper and yellow,mustard, chopped onion, and a wedge of tomato. Then a dash of celery salt to top it all off.
I don't think that anybody from It's a Southern Thing has ever collaborated with any of the Husbands of Target, but yes, these two together would be GOLD!
every time i see buckee's i get sad ... they were going to build on in my town ... elfland ... sadly we are near chapel hell ... quote from county commissions ... can you make the sign smaller ... and install less pumps ... application pulled ... no buckees for you
Can’t really throw White Castle at em when we have Culver’s! 😂 Edit: To everybody saying that "Culver's isn't just midwestern", it started in Wisconsin, and has since spread through the country. White Castle was founded in KANSAS. Culver's is just as midwestern as Fleetfarm, Kwik Trip, and Meijer's.
North Carolinian here. Went up to Wisconsin a couple winters back for a friend's wedding. First time seeing the temps hit single digits, so that was neat. Culver's was great! And apparently they're opening three locations in NC now. 👍
In the South we would just slap down a "catfish", "brook trout", "shrimp and grits", or "crawdad" card, depending on what region is playing. Fish fry is tame in comparison.
Any Oklahoman knows the experience of going to a QUIK TRIP and seeing 2 crackheads fighting over a bicycle, a dude blitzed on meth dancing in the grass and some other dude babbling incoherently at people trying to get gas.
@@lynnerains7478 North and East Tulsa, parts of BA too are pretty bad about crackheads. Haven't been out in West Tulsa much. Going through downtown on the way home is something else.
Southerners love acting like that's some secret code that only y'all know. You could ask a fucking Scotsman in Edinburgh and he'd know about it. It ain't the crazy comeback y'all seem to think.
@@robertlarson7224 Wooow bro, do you not understand how memes work? Maybe take a step back and reflect on your reaction to a harmless joke, you act like we're gatekeeping the phrase, people only know what they know and I'm only aware of Southern people using it, what? Can we not joke about things we experience in our culture just because another culture also experiences it? No, that's ridiculous. I would say you're a buzz kill, but literally anythin' gets you little murder hornets of the internet all angy, makes those tiny wings go all aflutter, must be tirin' gettin' so riled up over insignificant shit, I know gettin' replies like this is. Bless your heart.
@@epica90won48 You'd be surprised how many hills and weird inclines we have in the Midwest. Maybe not always full on mountainous but we have them. And what's worse it's often out in the farm field areas were it's not treated all that great. That makes for some fun driving.
@@joegaines7105 Wasn't that the storm from like last year or something. It's a shame that they don't have more stuff winterized down there like pipes and what not. Probably would've save a lot of grief there for some. I know you guys don't get much but it's bad when it happens
@@PennsyPappas What made it worse was we're our own grid. We're not connected to the national grid, b/c the "gubment" would force us to do stuff like winterize. So when the storm hit and knocked us out, we couldn't pull energy from the national grid. More than 100 people died. Two years later state says "everything is fixed" although we've still had blackouts in areas (during summer) & we're still not hooked to the national grid.
We had a band trip down to Disney this year and I’m from Ohio. On the way back we stopped at Bucees at like 2am and lord almighty it was like a gas station on steroids. Best experience of my life
Keep that. That's a no go. Those things are mean, nasty and try to take on grizzlies. We try to keep pigs pink and tasty so they don't escape and turn into those things here in Iowa....
I literally "oof'd" when he laid down the "bless your heart". As a Midwestern native (Michigan), I know exactly what that means and no I don't eat those kinda hotdogs. Near Detroit, we eat Coney dogs. 😁
I'd rather have a classic chili cheese dog. Wisconsin here... by the way if you ever go to a A&W I recommend ordering some chili cheese fries and asking for them to mix in a order of cheese curds, 10/10 chefs kiss
Hell yeah! And we pick sides in a years long feud between coney Island restaurants! (Lafayette and American coney Island, look it up if you don't know what I'm talking about )
Yes sir the south has good food on lock. Nothin beats Southern barbecue and flaky biscuits and gravy. Fuck I think I have a semi just thinking about it.
“Bless your heart” is the best southern saying ever because if you don’t have a connection to the south then you don’t know what it means yet it sounds so positive.
You can kinda guess based off context clues. If you've been around southern people for any length of time, you learn pretty quick that most of the niceties are just thinly veiled criticisms of your entire personality lol
@rabbitrun7843 Bless your heart means something totally different in the south. If you don’t know what it means’s then that proves you aren’t from the south. Bless your heart.
Californian: Dudes, can I jump in? South and Midwest simultaneously: *NO* CA: I brought pizza. It has pineapple and bbq sauce. South: .... Midwest: *click clack*
My grandmother had “bless your heart” cards printed and laminated many years ago. She frequently hands them out to people she feels needs them. I have a few in my purse “just in case”.
You southerners sure are proud of that passive-aggressive phrase 'bless your heart', arent ya! You people act like its some god-level comeback! it's cute for women and children, but not impressive for adults!
Chicago style hot dogs are incredible and I say that as someone with zero bias in favor of the city or the Midwest in general. They’re the pinnacle of hot dogs.
One surprising hotdog style for me as a Chicagoan/now just outside of chi-town person were the footlong chili dogs that they used (maybe still do?) to sell on Bourbon St. in New Orleans from the hotdog cart. It just had chili, cheese, and mustard… but i’d never had mustard on a chili dog and I have to say: that thing was delightful. Then again, all the food in New Orleans is. The first time I went, I literally left in pain cuz I had eaten too much 😂. And i STILL cannot find grilled frog legs anywhere for the life of me. If anywhere has them,they’re always breaded and deep fried, and while that’s fine sometimes… I just want the MEAT. no silly breading! Now I’ve made myself hungry for something I can’t have again. Dangit 😂
@Tiffany Millea Sonoran dogs aren't southwestern. They're Mexican. You'll find Sonora dogs all places Mexicans are. So yes. Chicago too. So. As midwesterner in Des Moines Iowa I have access to both . All from carts a block away from several taquerias.
We don't have them in SW Missouri, but when wife has to go to St. Louis for medical treatments we always stop and get a 30 box and eat them for days. Like eating peanuts.😊
