Memes That Southerners Will Totally Understand

I’m from the midwest, not the south, but it felt like there were some cultural elements that sort of sifted up our way, especially via my dad. As a result, I’ve always felt a sort of half-kinship with Southern culture coupled with a lot of baffled feelings toward just what the heck is going on down there.

To help me understand, here are what I’m told are some very quality southern memes.

10. Can’t beat the deet

Mmm, you smell like lack of bug bites.

Memes to Help You Understand the South

A lot people say we’re living in a deeply divided nation. Others say, “No we’re not, you liars, this means war!”

I think both sides have a point.

And in an effort to heal things over just a little, I’m going to try to educate myself about parts of the country that I don’t have too much familiarity with. For instance, the south. A place with a rich and storied culture, which I will now attempt to fully comprehend through memes.

Take a journey with me out of Yankee territory, ya’ll.
