11 years ago at 12:03 pmPerfectly summed it up why the south is fucking backwards: They like NASCAR over Hockey
11 years ago at 11:45 amNASCAR is for poors.
11 years ago at 11:58 amIs this the type of shit they let you publish after you give SFPL a nice blow jibber?
11 years ago at 11:45 amSo you go to UK, write an article about going to school in the South, and then say Kentucky isn’t the South. Ok.
11 years ago at 11:48 amI used to go to school in Mississippi. Now I go to UK. Kentucky is not the South. If you can get to Ohio in an hour, it’s not the South.
11 years ago at 12:00 pmThis was just awful.
11 years ago at 12:04 pmMight as well have been SFPL
11 years ago at 12:27 pmYou should go back to Mississippi and continue to be irrelevant.
11 years ago at 12:41 pmPretty sure the family jet can take me to Ohio from just about any southern state in less than a hour if we pay them enough…
11 years ago at 1:17 pmDo less
11 years ago at 3:38 pmI was being serious, but okay….
11 years ago at 3:42 amSeriously go fucking fuck yourself. Get the fuck out of our fucking state. fuck.
11 years ago at 5:23 pmIf you live in Tennessee you can get to Kentucky in an hour which “isn’t the south” therefore Tennessee isn’t the south, are you fucking dim?
11 years ago at 7:30 pmSo apparently Virginia isn’t in the south either? Go play in traffic, kid.
11 years ago at 3:45 pmI see the Buzzfeed – TFM merger is complete.

11 years ago at 12:01 pmSo Virginia isnt the south since when?
11 years ago at 12:01 pmlost all credibility after #13
It’s not
11 years ago at 5:33 pmThis was one of the worst descriptions of the south that I’ve ever seen. I am shocked that someone made a worse list than SFPL. Someone needs to get hazed.
11 years ago at 12:03 pmAre we all forgetting Bacon’s pledge name list?
11 years ago at 6:26 pmI stopped reading this article after saying that Kentucky isn’t part of the south.
11 years ago at 12:07 pm#15 Sucks.
11 years ago at 12:07 pmI’m glad I came to a Fraternity website to read a list not at all related to Greek life.
