People on this board are always bashing the South( I admit I do that to) people,culture,mentality etc.. So I thought I would give a chance for people to express why they hate the North.

I live in the North and love it here and I would love to hear from others( especially from the South) why they hate the North.

I don't hate the North at all. Nor do I hate the South.

Could I make some bullcrap list of negative things? Sure. I realize that just as quickly someone could do the same thing against the South.

I don't care if my Southern friends on this forum make a list, however-- its about time we got some revenge for all the crap we've gotten.

I guess I do hate the cold..

Best reason I can think of is because the North is full of yankees! BWHAHAHAHAHA

*AHEM* Ok...ok...I am just joking! Hell, my own kids are "half-northern"

Seriously, much as I kid about it, my own experiences when visiting in the northern states have been very enjoyable. Other than that folks up there talk funny (couldn't resist that one!) ...I encountered nothing but friendly people (ok...perhaps more "reserved" than we Southerners in casual encounters) and good times!

I'm glad you enjoyed your journey to the northern states.

what you said about Yankees kind of reminds me of an unpleasant encounter I had while traveling through Alabama one time.

It was OK for me for the first few weeks, then it gets old. Easier to deal with the heat though esp if you don't have a car.
