Ole Miss Manners - A Southern Rebuttal to the New York Times (by Jane Borden in Vanity Fair)

justapinchofsouth:

I have a huge literary/comedy crush on Jane Borden.

And with all my serious talk about manners and ma’am-ing today, she nails the whole thing with tongue in cheek.

Yes, we Southerners can take ourselves (and our manners) far too seriously. Thanks for that reminder, Jane. (As if I actually knew Jane to say that.)  (Well, truth is, I went to camp with her sister, and… nevermind)
