LOL......You are both right......

Daaaang is a rather generic expletive where as
Dammy is reserved for those occasions which warrent special consideration.....

a sample of southern literature, aka, poetry


Suzy Lee fell in love.
She planned to marry Joe.
She was so happy bout it all, she told her pappy so.

Pappy told her, "Suzie Gal" you'll have to find another.
I'd just as soon yo maw don't know, but Joe is yo half-brother.

So Suzie forgot about her Joe and planned to marry Will.
But, after telling pappy this he said "There's trouble still".

You can't marry Will, my gal, and please don't tell yo mother, cause Will and Joe and several mo I know is yo half-brother"

But Mama knew and said "Honey chile, do what makes yo happy.

Marry Will or marry Joe, You ain't no kin to pappy!"

Oh indeed there is !
Coastal cities such as Vancouver and Seattle are relatively "civilised" but once you venture into the interior of both places..... it becomes difficult to actually escape the redneck culture. In fact there is one area in British Columbia, called the Kooteneys, where the inhabitants are commonly thought to be inbred.....

LOL.......With a name like Kooteneys I am not at all surprised

lol! Interesting you should mention that, the nickname of the place is actually "The Cookys"
As with many such areas, the surounding scenary is actually very beautiful... very green and mountainous.....

@DW: Apparently this Canadian redneck sub-culture has spilled over into the states which border British Columbia...while in Washington State, I encountered such rednecks. Indeed, a Pacific Northwest version of Bubba...instead of old greasy ball caps and WWF t-shirts, however, these guys wore touques and oversized flannel shirts.

Goodness, they had "Great White North" bumperstickers on their 4WD trucks...

"Hey...like, want to go spotlight some deer, eh?"

[Scayde]

@ Chanak: LOL...While I have never been to the Canadian North West, I have seen some guys in Northern Cal and Nevada that I was sure were the inspiration for "Twin Peaks" .....LOL.....North Taho has a few that come to town on the weekends to see what the "city folks" are doin, and possibly kidnap some "new blood" to take back to the mountains when they go

Speaking of California...let's not forget Rio Linda...a western copy of certain places in the South...

Twin Peaks...LMAO! I remember that...

This all has a "Deliverence" sort of feel to it...as in, "Them woods back there."

@BS: "Daaang" is indeed a more generalized application, whereas "Dammy" is specialized in use. Weasel ought to be here...his input would be invaluable.
