Ok... so I work in a jewelry store.. everyday the UPS guy comes in to deliver whatever it is he is delivering on that particular day. Well I dont know HOW this guy got hired... I mean... think "swamp people" crossed with "moonshiners" and maybe a dash of "doomsday preppers" thrown in. I live in Boonville, Missouri.

Well he walks in today... hands me our stuff and as Im signing the little computer thingie I hear.. (in your head, say this in the most hillbilly accent you can muster) "Well now look atchya.... you lookin very mighty fiiiiiinneee.... you on one of them there diets?"

I SOOOO badly wanted to say "No, Im dying of AIDS...... heres your sign!" I probably would have handled it better if I wasnt in such a bad mood, but sheesh!

ROFL!!!! That is hilarious!

Honestly if he is as country as you say then he was complimenting you. He noticed, isn't that what matters?

I know he was complimenting me, I was just kinda crabby today.. I did thank him politely, and its nice that he noticed. It was just the way he asked that I was like "Wha?"

If anyone told me I was looking "mighty fine" I would be pleased:bigsmile: , provided they aren't wearing a hockey mask and holding a chain saw that is.:noway:

DaughterOfTheMostHighKing

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! I'd have cracked up right in front of him!!! or answer him back the same way!!!!!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I'd pay money for a compliment like that right now!

My husband's idea of encouraging me is to tell me he started a pool at work and all the guys placed bets on how long I'd last before quitting this "diet thing". Then he added he already lost.

OH WOW!! My MIL told my hubby that I wouldnt last 10 minutes on a diet, and in fact Id be even fatter by next XMAS... So 33lbs later I email her every now and then and tell her how much Ive lost :devil:

Considering I live in a small redneck town as well, I would have just handled as usual, with a surprised look and a "thank you."
I don't speak in "hillbilly" but most of the guys in our town do and that made it so much funnier.
Thank you for the best laugh of the day.

melissaogdenrhode

Oh my gosh, that was the funniest thing I've heard in QUITE some time! That could be a line on a movie! THANK YOU!

From a born & raised Texas girl... The appropriate response/back handed insult...'well, bless your heart!' it's basically saying F you without actually denouncing your religion!

editnonnalynn

Laughed so hard, a tear ran down my leg! I was a truckdriver with my husband, and the CB radio was often a sourse of much laughter, sometimes JUST because of the accent.

WanderingMe

Hehehehe, thanks for the giggle

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You should write Bill Engvall and tell him about that!

:laugh:

coraliethomas

I jut want to clarify that Im not bashing on people from the south, In fact I LOVE a texan accent. What THIS guy has going on is a whole other thing!!

Im still getting used to this whole mid-west thing.. I was born and raised in South Africa and then spent 8 years in Canada before moving here... Its still quite a novelty!

Grrr...

OP, your post totally made me LOL! I've got a friend who lives down in the bootheel (just mistyped with one 'e', two 'l'...might have been more accurate) of MO who tells THE best maroon headholder stories. We had to start calling them maroon headholders when our kids were little, lest they overhear DH and I talking and repeat the phrase in ~ahem~ the wrong company.
