Lol! That's funny because generalization because in the south, northerners are viewed as having less manners & being less friendly.

You're the ONLY person I've ever known, who quotes Seinfeld, more than I.

And the north/south thing is true, for the most part.
I'm a Yankee, but spend a LOT of time down in TN. The people there, are SO MUCH more friendly there, than they are here. They've told me that they hate Yankees, because we're rude, impatient, and self-absorbed. I agree.

My friend moved here from Chicago....she says the difference in just friendliness, from there to here in IN, is huge. The difference from Chicago to the South, must be astronomical. 70yo women, greet you on a city street, down there. That would rarely happen, here.
