Things Every True Southerner Should Know

[Sazerac]

Fixin' to: About to carry out some probable future action.

Conjugation of the verb: "fixin' to:"

I'm fixin' to
You're fixin' to
He/She/It's fixin' to

We're fixin' to
Y'all'r fixin' to
They're fixin' to

Examples:

Miss Suzy's fixin' to see her beau this evenin'.
It's been fixin' to rain for a week.
Are y'all fixin' to go to the barbecue?

And remember: True southerners never conjugate, they decline

RudeDawg: Heaven forbid, suh! I never intended to imply that you were anything but a southern gentleman! Of course, the good ol' boy can be a load of fun as well!
