Ok. Nothing new to me; I hear these phrases regularly. The
one about "full as a tick" was incomplete. The complete saying
is "full as a tick at a blood bank." If you need any translation
help just sing out.

It might, but that's been the saying I've heard from umpteen people
for about a hundred years.

He's obviously trying to make this sound derogatory to the Southern US.

He's just trying to put down the southern US (and apparently other
prhaseology, as usual.) I have no idea why but it's typical.

The south still gets guff for its inglorious slavery past, plus the
Civil War, - that ought not be a total surprise.

well, being born and raised in the Southeast, I actually use all those phrases. The last one should be worn slap flat out, they left out a very important word. hahahahahaha

They also forgot 'smack dab.' "Follow this road until you run smack
dab into the high school."

If whoever compiled that list was fixin' to give the South something unique,
It is an epic fail. Southern Living magazine should have done some homework
before publishing that nonsense. Bless their hearts.

Hehe they left off Widdershins. Several meanings, may only be used in
Smoky Mountains area? Usually directional (behind you, missed you
turn) or 'to be backward'. Yonder widdershins is 'a long way back'.
Smack Dab is a definate. Means it will be really obvious when you get
there.

Originally, widdershins meant counterclockwise.
Correspondingly, deosil mean clockwise.

When my milk starts going bad, I don't call it blinky - I call it
trash.

My mother used that term.

People here call what others call a sliding board a slicky slide, I think it may have been a brand name at some time.
