The real low down is that you can say anything about anyone as long as you say bless your heart after it your ok. For instance you can say my neighbor is going through some tough times and cheating on her husband bless her heart Note the dig and then the cover with bless her heart. It's a way to say something about someone and at the same time time cya because you said bless at the end
Wow you can tell some of your not from around here.
OMG some of the posts absolutely butchered the saying.
Doesnt even flow. For one since native population is small
if you did here it , it was probably someone not from here
It all about timing and a lot of posts if you use it
you should automatically be call fake

"Hey Tony... not for nuthin', but you haven't bought a round in 3 hours. Those alligator arms preventing you from reaching your wallet?"
may be loosely equivalent to...
"Tallulah... Bless your heart, but we've been sitting in this heat fanning ourselves for hours. Are you fixin' to set out some more sweet tea?"
My coworker is from Long Island is always says "not for nothin'". I have asked him several times just what the hell that is supposed to mean. Drives me up a wall.
