They’re called goober peas. Come to South Carolina and I’ll teach you the song. It was sung by Confederate troops during the Civil War…or, as it’s called down here, the war of northern aggression.

That’s how I use fatback also. I’ve never eaten it fried but sure it’s good. You’ve got to feed him some fine fried catfish too PP, and that comes from a fried flounder coastal Georgia Cracker.

I’ve heard them called goobers. Too bad it’s not main green peanut season. They eat boiled peanuts in China too.

Sing it for us JT!!!

Got you covered—there is a little place down here that serves up a fried catfish meal complete with fried oysters every Friday afternoon!

Down here Greg is going to see a lot of:

Hey y’all don’t f~~~ around and get Greg shot, arrested, or sick. I want him to be able to make it to Texas. 🙂

Not to reinforce any stereotypes, but, be advised, I am cooking tonight’s main course meat, chicken breast filet, pan fried using bacon fat personally rendered using a non-nitrite containing bacon.

We Easterners do too. I told him not to speed ever in small towns. That goes quadruple multiplied for any Interstate Highways like I-95, I-4, I-16, I-20, I-75, and last but not least I-10, the road to Texas, that are within the borders of ANY small town. Larger cities have more leeway by necessity. At least that’s the way it works in Georgia, South Carolina, and the Southern part of Florida. Any Southerner will know what I mean by last part of prior statement.

I’m starting to hear banjo music. LOL

On I-10 west of Baton Rouge to Lafayette, all those little swamp towns like Grosse Tete are bad for cops sometimes.
On the Atchafalaya Spillway (about a 10-15 mile long bridge) they almost always have cops running radar cause there’s always a horrible accident there with all the water and fog. Then, the cities of Lake Charles and Sulphur is usually bad for cops. That’s about the worst of it as far as I-10 from Baton Rouge to Houston.

Always make a restroom stop in Port Allen, Hwy 415 @ I-10 cause there ABSOLUTELY is no where to stop, pull over or anything for 20 or so miles cause of that Atchafalaya Spillway bridge.

My advice to Greg will be to avoid Interstate 10 if he can and stick to hwy 90 instead.

[Anonymous 11]

I like Hwy-90 too. Florida A1-A and Georgia/South Carolina US-17 are excellent equivalent East coast roads in both States for the scenic coastal route. Interstates are fast but boring especially through those endless stretches of pine trees.

I swear the best BBQ smoke I’ve ever smelled was in the middle of extreme South Georgia somewhere off some nowhere deep woods intersection off of Hwy-84.

It would be fun for a bunch of us to meet in Las Vegas!

C-pig What are your thoughts on taking 441 north from Lake city to Anderson? I think that beats doing 75 and fighting traffic in Atlanta.

The Mississippi River bridge is pretty f~~~ing narrow on 90. OMG! That was the final exam for drivers ed when I was in high school. If you could make it across that mother f~~~er without trippin’ out then you passed. The spillway bridge is worse also on 90. It’s much narrower and you feel each and every expansion joint. Back in the day, Krotz Springs had the worst speed trap along that route. Also, back in the day we had 2 working whorehouses along that route. Practically legal, at least as far as the parish sheriff was concerned.

You know PP, I’ve done 441 quite a few times going to North Georgia getting on it off I-16. I prefer it very much over I-75 and Atlanta. I’d rather drive in Northern New Jersey than Atlanta.

I’ve never driven the Florida stretch on 441, but Georgia’s has its merits.

That sounds excellent!

Thats awesome you guys met. Greg is going to the deep south, I take it he has never been? Can’t wait to hear that story.

[Jan SobieskiParticipant 28791]

Outstanding. I met a member, a good man. A good friend.

Love is just alimony waiting to happen. Visit mgtow.com.

Stephen King invented a dish that he calls Cheery Casserole. It consists of cheerios and peanut butter fried in wesson oil. Sounds weird, but also kind of interesting. And a friend once told me about beanie pancakes, which involves pancakes wrapped around cheese and baked beans. Frankly, I’m really tempted to try that.

Anyways, congrats to DYD and Greg for catching up, that sounds awesome. So many guys on this site that I’d like to meet, but I’m on the other side of the world. Remember in Fight Club when Edward Norton sees Bob in the street, who starts talking about a secret society that he’s a part of? “But ah, the first rule is that I’m not allowed to talk about it…” Norton says, “Bob I’m a member.” It’s like a global covert elite.

[Ice-JiubParticipant 491]

Now I wish I’d tried to meet you in person while you were still over here, though I was afraid you’d ask for help in hiding a body.
Hell, if you come back I’ll even shout us a session with your ex c~~~y neighbour if she’s still in that line of work and we can hit up the Little Britain store in Riccarton afterwards for mushy peas and eel pie or whatever it is you guys eat.

Hello MGTOW.

Thanks for replies to DYD’s topic and advice for my trip. It was good to meet DYD, but we had a few calls to make before we met up. I’d never been to his town and no clue where to park or where to go. I ended up hanging around a central location just looking suspicious. We met, went for a coffee and tried to talk about our experiences, but we both felt a little constrained by the largly female customers all around us in the coffee shop so headed for a Bar instead. We hit it off pretty quick and after a beer or two it seemed like we had been buddies since forever. It was a shame that DYD’s town is nearly 90 miles from mine as I knew I had to get back and the conversation was just getting started. It’s strange to meet in person and DYD mentioned that the idea of meeting other MGTOW in real life was a leap of faith. As he said, I could have been any kind of nutter with evil intentions so a great deal of trust is involved on both sides. I thought about getting suited and booted up for the meeting to project an image of successful MGTOW batchelorhood, but kept it low key instead, as did he.

I think next time DYD, you can come to my town and we can go for a real drink and then you can crash at mine if you want. Open invite.

As regards my trip to “The Deep South”, yes I’m looking forward to it and will try and make a good impression on anyone I should meet there. I was going to land and then drive straight to Pete’s until I realised that 15.30 local time would feel like 22.30hrs to me after the flight so I’m trying to book a room in Orlando Thursday and Friday to sleep off the Jet Lag and be ready for the drive ahead. The distances involved if I honour my committments to vist people are daunting to me. For example, 300 miles in the UK will just about get you coast to coast in any direction, but that just gets me halfway through some states so I figure I’ll need a big comfortable car to do it. I checked out Gas prices online and it came up as $2.40 US Gallon which is stupidly cheap compared to here, (roughly $4 US Gallon $6 UK Gallon).

We didn’t know if we were the first MGTOW members to meet in person so it feels pretty cool if we were 🙂

Although we have some pretty honest conversations on this site, I think a good conversation can only happen in person. I’ve enjoyed getting to know you guys online but I want to make it real. I can only do that in person so that’s what I intend to do. If that leads me into stormy waters then I just accept what fate has in store for me, whatever the consequences.

I want to meet the Pioneers of a New Philosophy. The Liberators who free the unquestioning slaves one Man at a Time.

MGTOW Make it Real.

Damn CPig, I must be a lucky SOB. A couple years ago I drove from Jacksonville to Douglas Georgia and back, over the speed limit most of the time. Not too much over though, maybe 10 mph over tops. I wish I’d known that then.

Order the good wine

@taxguy:

Outside of residential areas and school zones, only the Georgia State Patrol can write tickets for 1 MPH over limit and 10 MPH is the limit for all others. You do have to watch out on the Interstates though as many small towns have annexed them for revenue purposes and are quite aggressive. My friend’s daughter received a “super speeder” ticket (>20 MPH over PSL) on I-95 recently. It’s like a $1000 fine.

I’ve had officers tell me they’ll let someone driving 13 MPH over go on by, because there is always some asshole running 30 over right behind them.

I once drove from Tallahassee to Savannah in 3:53 using Georgia SR-122 to cover most of crossing Georgia until Waycross. I was running like 95 MPH in a 55 all the way down SR-122 and also failed to stop for a long funeral procession in some hick town as it would have hurt my time. It features a 70 mile stretch of nothing but pine trees no sign of human activity.

@greg: Wait until you drive from Florida to Texas.
