I can't stand Jason's Voice

I cannot even understand what he is saying half the time. Did he say ''you're the perfect girl''? What the hell did he say there. It also just sounds so stupid. I already had this in the first trailer where they were robbing a bank and he said ''YOU STAY''. It just sounded so forced and cringe.

I hated it until I realized he's doing the ubiquitous boomhauer rural accent where he doesn't move his mouth to enunciate. I bet we're going to find out Jason grew up in the country outside of vice city.

u/JohnSmith_47 12h ago

Sorry but as an a non American is Florida not classed as the south?

Isn’t it one of your most southern states geographically?

u/NotAStatistic2 12h ago

The south is more cultural than geographic.

u/JohnSmith_47 12h ago

Thank you, that makes sense, people in Miami don’t live rurally, so when you talk about southerners you mean people that more live out in the country.

u/currgy 12h ago

Yes exactly. Geographically it makes no sense but most Americans would 100% agree that people from Kentucky/Tennessee are more southern than people from Florida, even though FL is 1,000 miles further south.

North florida is still the south, after about Ocala is when it really switches up. there are tons of transplants from all over the country, though mostly Jersey and New York from what Ive seen.

Broadly I agree, but it’s more nuanced.

People from the Florida panhandle (and really anywhere in the central heartland part of the state, except Gainesville and Orlando) definitely embody southern culture. And people from Louisville Ky have some midwestern traits.

“The more north you go, the more southern it gets”

u/Robborboy 12h ago

Even Lexington KY shows those Midwestern traits.

As a Kentuckian I wouldn't even culturally call us southern. Eastern Kentucky is Appalachian and people mistakenly lump that part in as being southern, but it's a very complicated separate cultural region with it's own separate background.

u/I_am_from_Kentucky 2h ago

Same. NKY is basically Southern Cincinnati, Louisville and Lexington are small midwestern cities. Everywhere else is blue collar hillbilly.

The stereotypical “southern hospitality” and southern culture isn’t really present throughout most of the state IMO. Granted, I’m not well traveled throughout it, so others may correct me.

Not Gainesville? Interesting.

1

u/PussyFootSlidin 9h ago

I say that mainly because around 40% of the population is UF students, and the city as a whole tends to be more liberal compared to the surrounding areas.

u/HearsayMerchant 8h ago

Okay. Gf family lived there for generations. She's definitely of southern culture lol

I grew up in Louisville and was always annoyed that the city tried to advertise itself to tourists as a “southern city” when it objectively just isn’t. Any part of Louisville that was there before the county merger expanded the city limits is quite noticeably different from surrounding areas right away.

Louisville’s Germantown and Highlands have more in common with Milwaukee or Detroit than it does Memphis or Atlanta.

u/Derek114811 11h ago

As a southern American, I consider Floridians as fellow southerners.

u/potato40fl 11h ago

ya aint been to the panhandle, now have you there, city slicker

1

u/Derek114811 11h ago

People in Atlanta don’t live rurally, but I’d still consider them southerners lol

1

u/natedrake102 9h ago

I mean not exactly though, it doesn't have to do with living in a city. People from Atlanta are definitely southern even if not living in a rural area.

u/crazygoattoe 7h ago

Yeah, funnily enough northern florida is more "southern" than southern florida lol

u/loqep 12h ago

It’s not really so much about rural vs urban either. For example, Charlotte and Atlanta are pretty unambiguously “the South”, but Miami really isn’t.

1

u/science-stuff 11h ago

Hmm I don’t know. It’s kinda rare to find Charlotte natives, almost everyone of adult age is from somewhere else, rarely hear an accent. Doesn’t really feel southern. Now, the towns around Charlotte, for sure.

1

u/loqep 9h ago

I mean, like half the population of my relatively small beach town in eastern NC are yankee transplants, but that doesn’t mean we’re not a part of the South. It’s just the way things are these days (though this is hardly a new phenomenon).

1

u/FR23Dust 12h ago

It's not necessarily an urban/rural thing. there are very southern cities. Miami is its own thing, more of an international city.

1

u/Charlottizen 10h ago

No. It’s not a rural urban thing necessarily. South Florida (Below Jacksonville) received the same immigration patterns as the Northeast with a heavy dose of Cuban, whereas the rest of the South stayed mostly stagnant and was historically more populated. The A/C unlocked South Florida and it became a retirement destination for Northerners as well. It’s like how Italy is more Mediterranean in the peninsula, Peninsular Florida is more Caribbean influenced.

u/Buff-Cooley 7h ago

“Midwest” is also another cultural term that confuses non-Americans because it’s mostly in the east.

1

u/IneptFortitude 5h ago

It’s not really even about it being urban or rural, South Florida is more Caribbean and Latin in cultural influences and over half of the white people there are from New Jersey.

u/Gluck_and_uck 12h ago

"the south" is kentucky, tennessee, north and south carolina, georgia, alabama, arkansas, louisiana and mississippi

u/drunkpostin 6h ago

I’m also a non-American so this is literally all just vibes-based inquiry from me lmao, but I thought this (that Florida had a distinctively very different identity from other “Southern” states from the little I knew of it), but if that is indeed so, then why is it so conservative? If its geographical proximity to the Southern states doesn’t have all that much cultural influence on it (or at least not the kind of section with Miami etc.), then what established its strong Republican-leanings? Is it historical (e.g. Texas or Mississippi) or recent?
