So far, you're in the clear.

I know you are talking about a different south, but I couldn't help responding to this. I grew up in the southern United States, otherwise known as the place where the English language goes down the drain. The south is definitely where the language differs from English to 'Murrican.

Phew  Wink

But yes, I did mean Brazil's southern region Smile

I can definitely understand what you mean after watching Honey Boo Boo on TV. I regret nothing. Tongue

Honey Boo Boo is a disgrace to anyone who grew up in the southern United States. That show alone is a statement to how little is required to entertain us....

Not really. But the fact that some of the American public actually enjoys that show is enough to make me sick.

@dahrling - Just thanks us for giving you something to speak Tongue I have a close friend who still believes Brazilians are Portugal's rightfully slaves (and quite honestly I dream of conquering Africa someday again, but Brazil is gonna be hard)

I have never been overly fond of shows like those. I feel like they make American youth ignorant and materialistic. That's just an opinion though.
