Even with the fact that I grew up in North Carolina, 'Jim Rash' just screams 'Southern boy.'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You know, I'm from the South, and I wasn't interested in perpetuating a stereotypical southern character.
Well, I'm from the South originally. I grew up in South Carolina definitely learning about manners and being proper and having to go to cotillions.
There's something sort of intrinsic in being a Southerner that doesn't go away. You can't get rid of it, but it's not something that's terribly obvious.
I think we Southerners have talked a fair amount of malarkey about the mystique of being Southern.
I have cousins in North Carolina who talk in that old Southern style of 'yakking,' if you will. All the black men in my life when I was a boy talked that way, and I love that kind of talk.
You know, Southerners are pretty cool.
I'm a Southerner.
Yes, I'm a real southern boy.
I love North Carolina.
There's no such thing as being too Southern.
