"A man and woman in love have the gift of sight... that isn't granted to other people. I watched you. I've watched you from the beginning. And on the day of your wedding, I saw your love blaze up like dry kindling wood. Keep your love burning. Keep it burning. And I promise you, you'll never be anything to one another but fair and handsome! That's the charm. That's the secret to the only enchantment this cottage holds. It's of your own making."

The Enchanted Cottage 1945, dir. John Cromwell

liberal northerners will talk until they're blue in the face about cultural diversity and the racist and classist implications of "standard" american english and then look sideways at you the moment you start speaking in a southern accent

[queen-mayhem]

I'm sure this happens with other accents and dialects too idk but I know that when I show up to a meeting with a bunch of northerners and greet everyone with a polite and appropriate, "Hi, how're y'all doin'?" I get some Faces.

These are micro-aggressions. Fuck Yankees.
